#imbringingbirthdaysback for December

Today’s card is one I designed for my December birthday cards that I’ll be sending out tomorrow for everyone. I love the bright cheerful colors and patterns that this pack of paper contains in addition to the gold foil accents.

So what do you think?

Here is the tutorial so if you’d like to make some of these cards to send your family and friends you can too!

With Facebook sometimes we forget to mail cards and I’ve always loved snail mail. Remember the feeling of going to your mail box after a long day and finding something in the mail box besides flyers and bills? It always made me feel good to know someone was thinking of me.

If you’d like a birthday card in 2019 from me email me at [email protected] include your Name, address and phone number along with your birthday. No year needed since we’re all young at heart! And I’ll send you a birthday card – yep it’s that easy!

August Thank You’s & Tutorials

This month’s Thank You’s use a fun new technique using the Stampartaus called Circular Stamping. It’s a lot of fun to do and you can create this fun technique with just a few steps. Check out this card that I created for my stamping friends.

I love the bright and cheerful Mango Medley teamed up here with Berry Burst – how can it not make you smile?

Good news I’ve created a quick tutorial for you so you can make some too.

I’ve also done a quick video tutorial for you to show how I created the template you need to create for this project.

Along with this video to show you how I stamp with the template to create this technique.

Circular Stamping with the Stamparatus Video Tutorial

So much fun, right? Loving it and can’t wait to try it with some other sets too!

Got Ink?

Why not refresh your pallet of colors with a new ink pad? We’ve got some great new colors such as the Mango Melody used for today’s project.

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing some more cards with you along with an organizational item too.

On a personal note I know that my posts have been more inconsistent than normal – we’ve had some family emergencies this summer, the latest being a major car accident that my husband was in. It was quite a scare, but thankfully he is ok and on the mend. I’m hoping things will be back to normal by the end of this week. Thanks for understanding.

Happy Birthday Gorgeous is one of those fun sets that can be used in a ton of different ways since it is filled with 32 stamps and coordinates with two of our punches too! Check out these wonderful cards done in Berry Burst to see just how many ways you can use this set.

This one has a fun fold

And this one done in Rich Razzleberry

Beautiful right? This rose is heat embossed onto vellum and then colored with our Stampin’ Blends. So striking! And yes, that is our embossing paste and mask in the background. The White Embossing Paste was colored with the Crumb Cake Reinker.

And while this card uses the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set too – it has a totally different feel

And how about this classic black & white using the poodle from the Birthday Delivery stamps set (143660)?

A great masculine card when teamed up with the Dapper Denim and You’ve Got This stamp set (139572/139575) to create a textured background.

This die is a lot of fun to use and when you use the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets (144106) it’s quick & easy too!

Super Duper Team Time

I love getting together with my team – we have a great time together sharing, laughing and stamping. What could be better right? So today I thought I would share some of the wonderful swaps that have been shared form the last couple of meetings. (Yes, I know I’m behind. lol)

This first card Cindy gave me and it uses the Super Duper stamp set (142871/142874).

And how about this soft card using the Weather Together stamp set (141543) and Umbrella Weather Framelits Dies (141479)?

Thoughts and Prayers (128751/127805) is a great set for those hard to make cards

Stamp, some simple sponging and you have a wonderful card to share.

Deborah chose the Daisy Delight stamp set (143669) and coordinating Daisy Punch (143713) to go with the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set (143662).

Can you see the Clear Faceted Gem (144142)? Deborah used a sharpie  to color it – so clever!

And here is card made with the Eastern Beauty stamp set (143675) and coordinating dies, Eastern Medallions (143725) that are available in a money saving bundle (145308).

I just love the fact you can make soooo many shapes with these Thinlits dies!
