Happy Birthday

 

I made this project using the stitched cake dies from spellbinders.  I also used a foil panel and foil form pinkfresh studios and the word dies are from stampin up.  I love the stitching on the cake, I almost did not do any stitching but had to try and I am so glad I did.  The toner panels and foil both from pinkfresh studios work so well with my heat source which is a laminator.  I love the pink foil and the picture doesnt show at all the beautiful shine that is achieved just using the it.  Literally takes seconds to have a gorgeous background pattern ready to use.  I will be submitting this project to the following challenges:

Birthday surprise

I made this project using the surprise gift stamp set and dies from hero arts.  I love the package in this set, its so easy to make this pop up surprise element with just a cut to the card panel and popping it up with some dimensionals.  I think its an adorable little stamp set and can see it getting used frequently for many different kinds of cards.  The colors used are pool party, fresh fresia, highlamd heather and lemon lolly from stampin up.  My card base is made from basic white thick, also from stampin up.  I will be submitting this project to the following challenges:
