Another Scrap Buster... and pretty card!

Hello friends, 

Do you have a ton of scraps that clogs your bins?  My desk and constantly covered in scraps of card stock that are left over from projects.   I love these smaller dies make use of this otherwise wasted paper.   In this case I wanted to remind can expand the use of your colors.   We often think of green when we think of stems... but look how awesome they look in shades of blue.   I accented the card with a wax seal that was a mix of blue and pink.   The center of the flowers are diamond dots.

You Make Everything Better

 Hello friends, 

I love stamp sets that allow us to make fun, quick, and humorous cards.   This set was released a few years ago by Stampin Up.  It has a few items like chocolate, cookies, and cocktails in it.  You can customize your card to fit the person's favorite things.   I used a few different shades of brown to create these chocolate chip cookies.   I also had some diamond dot in chocolate chip brown.  I scattered them around the card to add to the crumbs.   I think they catch the light and add the perfect amount of shine.

Tulip Tri-Fold

Hello friends,   

I have another catch-up card to share with you.   This is a trifold fun fold that we made back in April.  I made a bunch of these for Birthdays and for Mother's day.  I love the fold.  However, it was really tricky to get the cut straight.  I tried a couple times to get it straight with my paper trimmer.  I was unsuccessful.   You guys know me... I wasn't happy.  I recruited a professional engineer to help me (it is amazing to have one on staff).   With his help, we got the math right and mastered this tulip garden.   I love how the flowers cover both sides of the card.  What do you think?  What other designs besides flowers would you like to try on this card?
