Poinsettia Nestabilities

This Spellbinder die sure made it easy to make a Poinsettia.  Wanted to try something different rather than the traditional red flower, so chalked a white pearlized paper with pink and green for the leaves.  The glittered background paper makes for an elegant look and I could see using this card not only for a Christmas card, but also a December wedding or birthday card.

Couple More Fall Flower Cards

Here are the other two cards I made with the same backgrounds.  Used Martha Stewart, Punch Bunch, Stampin' Up! and EK Success punches.

Another Fall Flower

Just had a fabulous week with friends creating cards, watching movies and having a great time!  Here is one of the cards I made.

Had some of these background leftovers, so will show the cards I made with these over the next few days.  Was nice just to be able to add some flowers and I was done!

Background paper was an old Basic Grey paper.  Used the Stampin' Up! scallop punch for the flower along with the Martha Stewart cornflower punch and a Punch Bunch sun and a twig punch.  Also a Leone Em fern punch.  Sponged some Frayed Burlap Distress Ink on the flower petals and leaves.

Will add more cards later this week!  Love to see who is stopping by, so would be great to hear from you in the comments!

Zinnia Zest

 

Tried out my new Victoria Embossing Folder by Cuttlebug.  A design that will suit many occasions.  The Zinnia is my version of a fun flower made my Susan Tierney Cockburn in her book Paper Bouquet.  Punches are from Punch Bunch, stamps are clear acrylic by Inkadinkado and also used the Mega Curved Rectangle Nestabilities by Spellbinders.  Started this card with fall in mind, but with the burgundy and green, it leans more toward Christmas!

Lily Type Flowers

Made this some time ago, but figure it is the right colors for the season.  Used Punch Bunch punches for the lilies and leaves.  Not sure of the name of the background paper, but loved working with the fun colors!

Turquoise Butterfly Lattice Card

Here is a birthday card I made a little while ago.

Used the Core'dinations paper so I could do a little sanding on the embossed areas.  Love that stuff!  Also used the Spellbinders Lattice Pendant including the left over pieces for the corners.  The butterflies are also Spellbinders Butterflies Two.  Embellished with ribbon, gold cord and some Dot Sparklers.

Fall Birthday Card

Birthday card I made for Nikky!  More fun fall colors!  Guess I really enjoy the autumn colors!

Used the dots and swirls Cuttlebug embossing folders and three sizes of Punch Bunch daisy punches plus the medium twig and the small fern punch.  Can't forget the butterfly!  All punches by Punch Bunch.
