Cherish Life's Moments

I was once again inspired by the clean&simple stamping sketches challenge FTL93.  I love how quick it is to put a card together with such great sketches and that is important when making cards as a party gift.  I am getting ready for a friends baby shower on Sunday and I figured what better gift to give out as a prize than some handmade cards! 
It was such a great sketch that I decided to make two of them.  

 Here is a closer look at the two of them. Both are made only with Stampin' Up! products. Cherish is made with one of my FAVORITE stamp sets, Baroque Motifs.
Life's Moments is made with Elements of Style, which is in the summer mini catty.  To be honest, I wasn't sure when I would ever use the main image that is stamped on this card, but I like that way that it looks on this card.

I'm off to a scrap all day tomorrow (10 am to Midnight) with my MIL and her friend.  Not only will it be a good time and help me get my wedding album scrapped, but it is also for a good cause!

G'Night all!

Pink Birthday

 I was commissioned to do this card by a friend.  She needed a card for her 7 year old niece and she said that she likes pink.  For the first while I had no idea what to do or make.  I don't have many children of that age in my life so I don't have many stamp sets that would work for something like that, even though I think I may have to buy more now!
After much deliberation, this is what I came up with. 

Most of the stuff on this card is not Stampin' Up! but the cardstock is.  The colors are Tempting Turquiose and Pixie Pink.  I don't think it is too bad for a 7 year old, what do you think?

After the fact

I may be a little behind posting a mother's day card, but I love this card.  I am huge on butterflies and the colour purple right now.  I have never really been a huge fan of purple, I was more of a pink girl, but I can't get enough of this Cottage Wall DSP and it is turning me into a purple person.  Love Rich Razzleberry and am SO glad that Stampin' Up! isn't retiring this colour.

Enough of my rambling and onto the card.

Everything is SU except the pearls on the largest butterfly, from a local dollar store.  On the two smaller butterflies I used the shimmer white paint from the Occasions Mini, but it is still available. 

Here is a closer look

Hope you enjoyed it, I know both my mom and MIL sure did as I waited till last minute to make them so I made the same card for both!
