Quilted Anniversary Card

This card popped into my head this afternoon while I was having some "tv therapy"!  Our grandson, James, was supposed to be having his nap, but he decided today that would not happen.  He is so funny to listen to when he is supposed to be sleeping, all that talking to his Puppy and Monkey who keep him company in his bed.  Then there is the singing .......  I love it!

I have wanted to make one of the "Quilted" cards that are so popular right now, and this is what I came up with.  Both birds have rhinestone eyes, but for some reason the one on the right is not showing up.
Stamps:  Something To Celebrate (sentiment)
Ink:  Rose Red
Paper:  Springtime Vintage DSP
Cardstock:  Very Vanilla, Always Artichoke, Rose Red, Pear Pizzazz, Daffodil Delight
Punches:  5 Petal Flower, Boho Blossom, 1/4" Circle, Double Circle (retired can use smallest eye part from the 2 Step Owl Punch), Itty Bitty Shapes circle, Scallop Oval, Large Oval, 2 Step Bird
Other:  Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Basic Rhinestones
I hope you get a chance to try one of these cards soon.  All you do is assemble your entire card front, then run the whole thing through the Big Shot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  It looks quilted in real life.  I also made and put the flower on the sentiment through the embossing folder.  Then I added the rhinestones and put the sentiment on the front.
Hope you can come back soon, Happy Stampin' .....

Black and Red Owl Birthday Card

This card came to me in the wee hours of the morning.   I had it in my mind using the Swirly Die instead of the branch from the 2 Step Bird Punch, but did not have it with me in the trailer.  So had to make do.

I used Basic Black for the main card, then spritzed some Champagne Mist Shimmer Spritz on it so that it looks like stars in the night sky.  I love every one of the owls I create from the 2 Step Owl Punch by Stampin' Up!  Every one is different, but they are all so cute.  This one makes a great masculine birthday card.
Stamps:  Messages For Mom
Ink:  Basic Black

Owl Punchie - Wanda Witch

Here is the Witch punch image I had on my blog yesterday, then I discovered I cased it from Jayne Stenstrom.  I just love this one, but then I love all of them, LOL .....

Between the 2 Step Owl Punch and the 2 Step Bird Punch, I think you can create just about any image imaginable.  Now we have the Blossom Petal Punch and it just opens the door even wider.
Check back tomorrow I will have a "Baker" owl punch image for you.

Punch Potpourri Thinking Of You

This card was inspired by Chat Wszelaki in THIS post.  Chat made her card a Christmas card.  I used the layout and the same stamps, but changed the colour scheme and made mine a Thinking Of You card.

I am still keeping up with using those colours that are not my "go to" colours.  This one uses Marina Mist and Cajun Craze.  I do like Cajun Craze, but hardly ever use Marina Mist.  Which is really too bad, because its a great colour, and it has matching ribbon too!
Stamps:  Punch Potpourri, Curly Cute
Ink:  Marina Mist, Cajun Craze
Paper:  Subtles Patterns DSP - Marina Mist
Cardstock:  Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Marina Mist
Other:  2 Step Bird Punch, Boho Blossom Punch, 1/2" Circle Punch, Build A Brad, Marina Mist Satin Ribbon, Basic Pearls
Have a great "hump" day!    Glenda Mollet
