Snack Time

 Art Impression's is having a "Midnight Snack" challenge this week.  What better snack then a piece of cake.  I always need a birthday card so I made one with a cake in one hand and a present in the other.  I utilized three stamp sets to create this card, Be Happy Laugh Lines for the gal, Birthday Buggy for the sentiment and the Holiday Mansion Birthday set for the cake and present.

I started out using my scrap strips from a Doodlebug 6x6 paper pad.  I love the bold bright primary colors and can't seem to throw away any leftover pieces of paper.  I stamped all of the images on cryogen white cardstock and colored with copic markers.  The sentiment, along with the cake and present, were cut with the coordinating die cuts provided in the sets.  This makes for great accessory popups on any card.  I placed them in her hands and popped them up using foam tape.  You would think they came together as a set since they fit so perfectly in her hands.  

Hope you enjoy my card for the day. 

May Flowers

 The current challenge at Art Impressions is Fabulous Flowers and what better stamp set to use that will show off May flowers than the Mushroom Cubbie set.  

  I made this interactive card for my daughter's birthday.  She LOVES gnomes.  I mean LOVES gnomes!!  😀  There are so many fun images and dies with this set that can be used with so many other stamp sets.  A very versatile stamp set.  I used the Lawn Fawn pop up platform die set which makes the card three dimensional and interactive.  

  Needless to say, my daughter loved her bday card.  Hope you like it too.
