Sunny Birthday

 Well I have reached the end of my birth month celebration and month long posting of birthday cards so I am ending on a sunny post featuring my all time favorite flower- the sunflower! This card is on trend with all the buffalo check stuff everywhere these days. I used the Buffalo Check Background #147797 stamp to create the rustic look. For the focal panel I made the sunflower by punching the petals from the Garden Impressions DSP #146289 using the Christmas Bulb Builder punch #148013. For the bold center, I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits #145372 and added the sentiment from the So Many Shells retired stamp set.

Pineapple Punch Birthday

 Today’s bright birthday card features the bright and cheerful Pineapple Punch striped paper from the Stampin Up 2018-2020 DSP paper collection.  The rest of the card was created mostly using carried over Christmas supplies.  The sunflower was created using the Christmas Bulb Builder #148013 Punch and the now retired Making Everyday Bright stamp set. The sentiment is from the Merry Christmas Thinlits #147912  and the Picture Perfect Birthday #145519 stamp set.

Light Up My Life

 Today’s Valentine post is one of the designs I made using my favorite stamp set Making Every Day Bright from the Stampin Up Holiday catalog,  Unfortunately the set is  now retired but the companion set Making Christmas Bright #148046 and the coordinating Christmas Bulb Builder punch #148013 are available.   The sentiment is from the now retired Crazy Mixed Up Love stamp set.

Natures Poem

 Today’s post features the Nature’s Poem DSP #146338 from Stampin Up.  I stamped the feathers  with the now retired Making Every Day Bright stamp set , colored them with Stampin Write Markers then added a piece Striped Burlap.  The sentiment is from the Country Home #147678 stamp set onto a coordinating piece of DSP and then cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits #145372 and a few extra feathers punched using the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch.

Penguin March

 For today’s post I used the Making Everyday Bright #148813 stampset and the coordinating Christmas Bulb Builder punch #148013 to create the string of lights.  The sentiment is from the Making Christmas Bright #148046 stampset.  The Snowflake Swirl was cut using the now retired Snowfall Thinlits from Stampin Up.  I used the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the background layer.

Messed Up Lights

 

Today’s post is probably my favorite Christmas card I made this season.  It features the Christmas Bulb Builder punch #148013 from Stampin Up.  I used my engineering drafting skills to construct the box and then strung the lights with a piece of black bakers twine.  The sentiment on the inside of the card is from the Making Christmas Bright #149947 stamp set.

Light Up Christmas

 Today’s post is all about the Making Christmas Bright #148046 stamp set from Stampin Up.  I punched the lights out with the coordinating Christmas Bulb Builder punch #148013 and attached them to a piece of thin wire to make a string of lights.
