More One for All birthday fun

#Imbringingbirthdaysback this month with the One for All stamp set – I loved stamping yesterday’s card so much during our team shoe box swap that I went to work creating and came up with this.

Done in Lovely Lipstick it’s bright and cheerful and perfect for the young and the young of heart! If you have a June birthday you may have already received yours!

Did you know that monochromatic cards are really popular right now? And they are great for the new stamper too, since all you need are a limited number of products. For the long time crafter they are also great since you can make an endless variety of cards simply by changing out the one color! Easily customization for your recipient’s favorite color. And with all the new colors to choose from this year due to the color revamp a great way to start collection some of the new colors too!

I have a tutorial for you too –

Springtime Foils Stylized Birthday Cards

It’s almost that time to send out birthday cards again and so today I’m going to share with you the #imbringingbirthdaysback card that I designed for April. I couldn’t resist using the Springtime Foil Specialty Designer Series Paper that is part of the Sale-a-bration choices since it is just so gorgeous!!!

Here is the card

And it was soooo easy to make! Each card looks a bit different since I used the flowers from the sheet of designer series paper that I cut out and simply colored them in with my Blends. Love the look!

This paper is also great for all kinds of techniques too! The options are endless since it has a glossy type finish and is a heavy card stock.

Check out the tutorial for this card below – and if you are wanting some of this paper for yourself, don’t delay since it is only available while Sale-a-bration last so there is only a few days left to year yours since Sale-a-bration ends March 31st at 11:50 pm (MT)

Each month I send out Birthday Cards to family, friends and you! So I thought I’d share with you my this month’s card and a tutorial for it.

I’ve also made a tutorial for you in case you’d like to make some too. After all who doesn’t love getting snail mail in their box? There is nothing better than a hand stamped birthday card,  right?

Beautiful You Birthdays

#imbringingbirthdaysback this month with Beautiful You.

I have really been enjoying this set and so I wanted to use it to create this month’s birthday cards that I was sending out. (They will be a couple of days late going out, but I’m hoping that those who receive these cards will think it was worth the wait. LOL!)

I’ve used one of our 2015 In Colors, Delightful Dijon to create this card and teamed it up with Basic Gray for a rich and bold look.

Did you know that this color will be retiring soon? Yep, it’s that time of you – our retirement list will be announced on April 10th!!! Yikes – already! AND our 2015 In Color Collection will be on it!

So you’ll want to be sure to complete your collection of supplies before April 10th, since the In Colors are typically the first things to go and they go quickly! Don’t get caught without your favorite colors, reinkers and accessories. Order yours before April 10th so you’re not disappointed.

#imbringingbirthdaysback with 200 cards!

Oh, and if you’ve already celebrated your birthday this year, no worries I’ll be sending a full 12 months of cards out! So that’s it – email me your birthday and then just sit back and wait for your card to arrive in the mail!

Vintage Leaves & #imbringingbirthdaysback

Today’s card is one that I created for the latest batch of birthday cards I sent out. Vintage Leaves is a wonderful set, perfect for this time of year and all kinds of cards.

vintage-leaves

While the Vintage Leaves stamp set does not contain sentiments I had no problem using the versatile sentiments from my Wetlands stamp set. I think the font works wonderfully with the images. How about you?

#imbringingbirthdaysback with Seaside Shore

Today’s card is one that I created for my July birthdays and my #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign. I think its bright and colorful and I love the way it turned out.

Seaside Shore #imbringingbirthdaysback July 2016

This card uses one of my favorite sets from the NEW 2016 Annual Catalog, Seaside Shore. It is full of wonderful seaside images. You can find this set along with a wonderful suite of products on page 92 & 93.

Check out the Perfect White Accents I used for the bubbles – I simply removed the white backing so they were clear and used my Fine Tip Glue Pen to adhere. Cool, right? and it’s another fun way to use this accessory.

#imbringingbirthdaysback with Endless Birthday Wishes

Do you ever take pictures with your phone and then totally forget about them? Well I do – a lot apparently since I just found these. LOL! Here are some pictures I wanted to share with you earlier this month and then forgot.

I made this card to send out for those May birthdays using the Endless Birthday Wishes stamp set (140273). It was fun, colorful and quick and easy since I used our Scallop Circle punch that retires at the end of this month. I’m going to miss these punches since they make great focal points!

#imbringingbirthdaysback Endless Birthday Wishes (2)

The layout for this card was inspired by my friend, Janie’s swap that I shared with you HERE.

Birthday Wishes & Sale-a-bration Countdown!

So today I wanted to share some of the wonderful cards that I received for my birthday.

Birthday cards (4) Birthday cards

Birthday cards (1)

Each and everyone of them is so special – And I appreciate the time my fellow stampers took to create and mail them. How wonderful it was to have a little surprise each day when the mail arrived. Truly my birthday wishes have lasted all week long.

It looks like the #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign that Shannon West began early this year is taking hold. How great is that? Real snail mail, not just a face book message. There is nothing like a hand penned note to make you feel extra special.
