Heirloom Frames Dies and EF

Happy Birthday To You Champagne

The Happy Birthday To You stamp set is another one you can earn FREE with a $50 order during Sale-a-bration.  I didn’t think I needed this set until I saw the coordinating dies you can purchase.  That cake stand is so pretty!  And, there are two dies for the flowers….. one cuts out the cake with the flowers, and the other cuts out only the flowers, so you can layer them or use them separately.

I also used one of the frames from the Heirloom Frames Dies and 3D Embossing Folders set.  It is spritzed with a mixture of alcohol and Champagne Shimmer paint to give it a beautiful sparkle.  The cake stand is cut from Champagne Foil, the Petal Pink Ribbon has a Champagne edge, and the flowers are painted with Wink of Stella after coloring, giving this card a lot of sparkle!  If you can’t see it, trust me, it’s there!

Beautiful Friendship Sympathy

Although I love to make cards, making a Sympathy card is always hard.  When I do have to make one, I spend the time thinking about the recipient and praying that God will comfort them.

This card was made for my good friend, Jessica, who recently lost her husband.  It was an unexpected loss, and my heart goes out to her.

Inside:

No one is more supportive than a group of stampers, and this card was from all of us.

The ribbon was from a previous catalog and is no longer available.
