Flower Pot

I made a card similar to this for Mother's Day last year.  For this card I used Core' dinations white wash paper in a pink shade for the flower pot.  The base of the pot was sanded to give it a worn look.  Fiskars decorative scissors were used to cut the scallop border.  A Cropadile punch was used to punch between each scallop.  The Saavy flowers were stamped on Memory Box paper with black Versafine ink and sponged with Brilliance Pearlescent Orchid ink.  The flowers were layered with dimensional tape.  A dew drop is in the center of each flower.  The yellow seeds on the flower were colored with a Gelly Roll pen.  The leaves were traced on green vellum paper from a Magenta leaf template and cut.  The ribbon is from May Arts.  The message inside the flower pot pulls out from the top. 

Bunny Basket

This cute basket was created to hold the chocolate covered candy.  The basket is blue paper from Core'dinations, cut and sanded to create the fence posts.  The handle was cut with Fiskars scalloped scissors and punched with a 1/16 inch punch.  The bunny heads were cut with the Cricut and glittered with pink Jewel Glitter.  The candy was wrapped with standard mailing labels that were stamped and embossed with clear embossing powder and sponged with colored Versa Fine ink.  The stamp is from Savvy Stamps.  You can see the detail on the embossed label on the bunny at the back of the basket.  Prima flowers were added to the side of the basket. 

Birthday Card

This is a busy card.  I sent this to my nephew, William, for his 14th birthday.  William came to visit this summer from Colorado; his first trip to Rhode Island, I hope he enjoyed it and will send his sister, Stacy next.  The base of the card is green cardstock.  The happy birthday background was run through the Cuttlebug and sanded to reveal the words on the lighter side of the Core' dinations cardstock.  The main image is from Impressive Obsessions; it was stamped with Pallet Noir Ink and colored with Copic markers.  The layer of green cardstock was stamped with green Versa  Color ink and palm leaves from Impressive Obsessions.

Flower Pot

This card was made in the shape of a flower pot with the brown Core' dinations cardstock. The cardstock was sanded to give it more texture. The flowers were made with the Spellbinders Peony Nestabilities set. The pink cardstock is from Memory Box, the pattern paper is from A Muse, the green leaves are an embossed Bazzill cardstock. Fushia Flower Soft is in the center of each flower. The flowers can be pulled out to show a message. The ribbon is from May Arts. The words are from My Sentiments Exactly and were stamped with black Versafine ink.

Fun in the Sun

This card was created with layers of the new Core' dinations white wash cardstock. Four shades of the Core' dinations cardstock was torn and layered onto a piece of black cardstock. Pink thread from Bazzill crossed the card. The base of the card is white cardstock. The center was created with Spellbinders Labels Three Nestabilities set in black, pink Core' dinations and white cardstock. The stamp is from Inkadinkado and was stamped on white cardstock with Versafine black ink. The shell was stamped a second time on white shimmery paper with black Stazon ink and cut out and layered on top of the white cardstock giving it more dimension. A pink pearl was placed between the two layered shells. The words are from Memory Box and are stamped in black Versfine ink.
