More Doodlebug Design Cards

Finally getting around to posting the other three cards I made while I had the Doodlebug Design paper pad out. On this card, I added a phone cord - I tried using a die from my stash, but nothing seemed to connect the mouthpiece to the phone base properly, so I just ended up fussy cutting. I added several Nuvo crystal drops that I had pre-made. I made them in batches so that they are always ready to use. This comes in handy when I am in a hurry and don't have time to wait for them to dry. Plus, if one doesn't come out quite right, it doesn't ruin my card. I love my Nuvo Drops!! 

Supplies: 

Paper: Doodlebug Design: take note

Dies: Technique Tuesday: Say It - Hello and Sizzix Originals: Telephone & Diary, Edgeabilities: Classic Edges One

Stamps: Hero Arts: Truly Appreciated

I just love all the bright colors in this paper pad! Added some solids to coordinate with that busy pattern. Used some white to make the phone and the sentiment stand out a bit.

Happy Thoughts

Created this card using the sketch at Fusion. Several different blues going on here: Background is a blend of Distress Blueprint Sketch, Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans. I first stamped the flowers in a random pattern with VersaMark then embossed with Clear EP & heat set. The individual flower die cuts were also embossed but with Sparkle N Sprinkle's Royal Blue EP. The sentiment was stamped using Simon Says Stamp's Happy Stamp Set and heat embossed with White EP. The word Happy was die cut from a Spellbinders Sentiments One 'Happy Birthday' Die. I glued three of them together for added dimension. Added some flourishes, a blue brad, scroll border & ribbon & done! TFL!

Paper: Ranger Specialty Stamping Paper & Royal Blue & White cardstock

Sweet 16

The third daughter of my sister will be turning 16 next week. I think this paper from The Paper Studio is perfect...I actually used the same paper for my  other two nieces' 16th birthdays. I had a hard time die-cutting the numbers, as I used double-sided tape so I could add some pink glitter. The black scalloped circle got rather messy after the glitter was applied, so I scraped it off the best I could and then added Glossy Accents to the whole scalloped circle embellishment. Now it glitters and shines! Hope she likes the card. TFL!

Supplies Used: 

Paper: The Paper Studio

Dies: TSOL flower2doodle, Sizzix Graffiti

Other: flower punch, EK Success Border Punches, Ribbon, Flourish Stickers, Sparkle N Sprinkle Glitter (Mauvelous), Glossy Accents, Ribbon
