Last Chance List

 Here's a card that I did in the Autumn, and now this lovely set is on the Last Chance List

Usually I'm very less is more, but somehow with this card I've used even more than the bunde! I do love a debossed vellum background though ;-)

Stamp set: Labelled with Love

Ink: Metallic Copper

Card stock: Copper Foil, Vellum, Bronze Glimmer, Cajun Craze, Whisper White

Accessories: Paper Butterfly Accents, Metallic copper Rhinestones, Labelled with Love Punch, Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder

Nature is such inspiration, GenGen XxXxX

On the opposite side . .

Just a quick post today, because as always I hang on to stamps that retire, and continue to use my faves ;-) The reverse of the Iconic Imagery DSP used in the last post looks like fireworks, and Birthdays in December deserve a bit of bling with fireworks and foil cardstock!

Stamp: Retired Happy Birthday

Ink: Vera Mark and Copper embossing powder

Cardstock: Iconic Imagery DSP, Brushed foil in Gold & Copper

Accessories: Small Star punch, Champagne rhinestones

Keep reflecting, GenGen XxXxX

December Birthday abound in our family, and this year a simple 65th Birthday card for my b-i-l. Somehow, no stamping, but using the Iconic Celebrations DSP from Christmas :-)

Simple DSP delight

December Birthday can often be taken over, and a friend who has a December Birthday mentioned how much she liked this Winter Meadow DSP from my Advent blog, so I added Old Olive (her fave colour) Glimmer Paper and some rhinestones for a bit of Birthday Sparkle, but to allow the artwork of the DSP to shine through. 

Stamp Set: Labelled with Love for the Greeting

Ink: Garden Green

Card stock: Old Olive Glimmer, Winter Meadow DSP

Accessories: Silver & White 1/2" Sheer ribbon, 

Greetings of the Season Oval die

Let a little sparkle into each day,

Inspiration in plain site

 Sometimes my inspiration for a card comes from the wrapping paper for the presents. Like this one . . 

It allowed me to make this  . . .

I followed the colours of the wrap, utilising the Cheerful Daisies stamp set and matching dies.

Stamp set: Cheerful Daisies and retired Birthday greeting

Card Stock: Garden Green, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Crumb Cake

Ink: Garden Green, Crushed Curry and Early Espresso

Accessories: Cheerful Daisies Dies, retired Glitter dots

Keep colour in your heart to keep you going through January,

Birthday card catch up

 Somehow the youngsters in your family suddenly have a twelfth Birthday, and dinosaurs don't really seem appropriate anymore! As with so many X Box seems to be a driving force, so thanks to printable images I managed to come up with this card, using Brusho Crystal Colours (as I never really throw anything out)

Retired Happy Birthday Stamp with Garden Green Ink

Card Stock: Full of Life 6"x6" DSP, Whisper White for console

Name Basic Black with Playful Alphabet Dies

Hoping this was a cool enough card for Alfie, keep on crafting to include the youngsters in your life. GenGen XxXxX
