My week to choose for Designer Choice Challenge  at The House That Stamps Built

 and with tomorrow being the Fourth of July, a big celebration in America I went

 with Red, White and Blue:

 

 

I went with a fun fold card that I have seen made with flowers and

changed it up to a Fourth of July theme for my dads birthday.

I used Repeat Impressions fun 9014-M, Fireworks set

and 1113-D, Birthday.  I also used a die set, not sure of the

maker.

 

Happy Fourth of July to those of you who celebrate!

Congratulations

My niece got a fabulous promotion at work so I made this card for her,

pink is her favorite color and she wears a lot of black, so color choices

were easy. If you are debating the Cut-Align rulers from

My Sweet Petunia I am thrilled with mine, look how nice

and even the edges are around the Congrats and the black

layer around it, easy to use.

 

Have a wonderful weekend!

The House That Stamps Built: Anything Goes

 

Anything goes week at The House That Stamps Built this week!

I made a set of 8, 2 of each of the CAS thank you cards as requested by a special person in my life.  I think this Heart Ribbon designed by Wendy

is the most beautiful cancer ribbon I have seen. On the inside he chose the

"Inspiration" verse "You are such an inspiration" for the left side and

will write his notes on the right side.

The House That Stamps Built-Inspiration Photo

 

 Inspiration photo week at The House That Stamps Built, and let me tell

you, this one had me stumped.  I finally went through my  patterned papers

 for inspiration looking for a floral to go with the flowers at the top and to match

 the colors. After gluing it to my paper I embossed it with a butterfly

Paper Studio embossing folder (thank you Mrs. A) for interest,

 and added Repeat Impressions: Thinking of You layered

with the reverse side of the paper.

 

Isn't the reverse of the embossing on the inside pretty too!

Happy Fathers Day

I had made several alcohol ink backgrounds several weeks ago and

thought these two would make good eclipse cards for my husband

and my dad for Fathers Day.  I did the Dad on my Scan N Cut.

Bow is by Taylored Expressions.

 

Happy Fathers Day to all the men out there and the spouses/

significant others of those visiting my blog.
