Wolf Birthday

 

WT1098 - William Caxton - Animal in Aesop Fables

For today’s card, I was inspired by the wolf and reached for one of my all‑time favorite Stampin Up sets. I stamped the wolf and the paw print, die cut both images, and added sponging to bring out their details. A touch of yellow was added to highlight the wolf’s eyes.

The images are layered over a pair of kraft designer papers, then mounted on black and white cardstock to add contrast and interest to the layout.

The card is finished with a birthday sentiment popped up on dimensionals and a few scattered candy dots for a simple, balanced touch.

CAS891 - Use a rarely used stamp or one you have never used from your stash.

For today’s card, I reached for this retired Stampin Up set and chose three of the images to heat emboss in white on black cardstock. After embossing, I trimmed each panel and popped them up on dimensionals for a clean, graphic look.

To finish the design, I heat embossed the Thanks sentiment in white and layered it on white and then black cardstock before mounting everything on the card base.

Birthday Daisies

 

IC1059 - Quarter Moon Bazaar - INSPIRATION

USEIT2026 - Daisies

For this card, I was inspired by the gorgeous embroidered daisies on the pillow and remembered I had these daisies tucked in my tote of items to use up.

I die cut nine white squares and arranged them across the top of a white card base, then hot‑glued nine daisies centered on each square for a clean, quilt‑like look.

To finish the card, I added this beautiful Happy Birthday sentiment from Stampin Up in crisp black for a simple, striking focal point.

Mountain Birthday

 

WT1092 - Mountains / Hills

For my card today, I pulled out a wonderful retired image from Stampin Up and stamped it on white cardstock, coloring the image with Copics.

The panel was die cut with a square stitched die and layered on a black die cut square. These squares were placed over a grosgrain blue ribbon that was cut into a banner shape and set on top of a leafy designer paper.

Once the focal panel was complete, it was layered on black and then on white to highlight the colors in the image. A few scattered gems finish the card with a touch of sparkle.

Moonlit Glow

 

CAS872 - Glow of the Autumn Moon

For my card, I sponged a yellow moon glow using Distress Oxide ink, then blended blue around it to create a soft night sky effect. Once the background was complete, I stamped a Stampin' Up image over the panel.

The panel was trimmed down, layered onto black cardstock, and popped up on dimensionals for added depth.

To finish, I heat embossed the sentiment in silver embossing powder for a touch of shine.

WT1061 - Royal / Royality

For my card, I pulled out a very old set from Stampin Up. I am not sure I have ever used all of these stamps until this card. I hand wrote the words between each stamp and stamped the images along the way. Once each was used, I colored the images with copics and layered on the designer paper.

For my card, I pulled out some tissue paper that has been glued on card stock for a couple of years waiting for me to put on a card. I cut it down with die cuts and created the background. It is then layered on gold mirror card stock. I then added the sentiment and this wonderful elephant image that is one of my all-time favorites from Stampin Up.

The card is finished with this great sentiment from Stampin Up and a few scattered gems.
