Stampin' Up! Happy B*Day Beautifully Penned Double Pocket Card

I have yet another Beautifully Penned creation to share with you again today. This one is another funky fold like yesterday. I have actually shown you this fold before here.
Today, I have styled my double pocket card as a birthday card and in one of the pockets, I have stashed some cash. It would also fit tattslotto tickets, scratchies and possibly gift cards if they aren't very wide.

Stampin' Up! Triple Point Birthday Card with Expressions In Ink DSP x 2

I was asked by a family friend to make a 50th birthday card earlier this month. I decided to make a triple point card because they look pretty wow and since I was making one, I thought I'd make another at the same time! When I was making them, in my head I had what I thought would be my favourite from them beginning but when I had finished both cards, I was surprised and I had changed my mind at what was my favourite. 
Please note, they both use retired dies (numbers 50 and Happy Birthday) and gold glitter paper but all other products used are current. 

Which one do you like best? The 50th card or the Happy Birthday card?


Close up - I love the texture of the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder on this card


Happy birthday card


Close up - I like that the Merry Melody 3D embossing folder (which is advertised in the July - December [Holiday] catalogue) looks fabulous with the Happy Birthday die cut

Stampin' Up! Delicate Dahlias Birthday Card with Biggest Wish

Today, we have week 17 of the colour creations blog hop. We have returned to the traditional blog hop like a circle, for this new round so we hop you enjoy blog hoping round to everyone's blog. You may have found me via Kate Morgan's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

For this weeks blog hop, we are focusing on the colour, flirty flamingo. 
I have chosen flirty flamingo, daffodil delight and old olive from the colour coach to work from this week. 

For my card today I have used the lovely delicate dahlias stamp set as the main focal image for my card. Delicate dahlias stamp set is one of the free products available as part of sale-a-bration. There are 10 products to choose from - 4 stamp sets, 3 paper packs, 1 speciality paper and a 2 dies sets! Free products are available with purchases of $90 or more. Sale-a-bration runs until September 30th, 2021. 
I stamped the large dahlia in flirty flamingo twice and fussy cut it out and layered it on top of each other with stampin' dimensionals in between for dimension. The smaller flowers are stamped in daffodil delight and large rhinestone basic jewels adorn the centre of the flowers. The leaves are stamped in old olive. The sentiment is from biggest wish stamp set and the word happy is heat embossed in white embossing power onto basic black cardstock, the birthday is in flirty flamingo ink on basic white cardstock and fussy cut out. All layers on the card are on a piece of crumb cake sewing machine pattern that is adhered in place with the faux silk technique for texture. Additional rhinestone basic jewels are placed in various spots around the card to finish it off.

Stampin' Up! Christmas Whimsy Shaker Card

Tonight I am joining some fellow demonstrators on a Christmas blog hop. We aim to bring you Christmas inspiration every Monday evening right through to Mid December!
You may have found me via Tina Gillespie's blog. If not that's ok! Hi and welcome! 

I begun with the Christmas Whimsy card kit for today's card and altered it slightly. I stamped the snow scene with the star stamp in night of navy ink and then cut the front panel of the card apart and placed it inside a clear envelope with some glitter. I cut a gold frame from gold foil to put over my shaker panel and adhered it all onto poppy parade card. The die cut elements where added onto the shaker panel after everything was adhered in place.
If you were to recreate this card, you will need gold foil, clear envelopes, glitter and poppy parade cardstock, oh and the Christmas Whimsy card kit. That is where the bulk of the materials came from. Even the night of navy ink, dimesionals and the clear block! I love kits that are stocked with some many supplies. I just can't help changing the card up and adding a Ros touch to them.

These are the supplies that come in the Christmas Whimsy card kit for $33. Enough supplies to make 8 cards, 4 each of 2 designs.


Here's my shaker card:


Even though I changed the card up, it still fits into the card supplied in the card kit. Isn't the gold lined envelope gorgeous? 


Inside card - Even the sentiment for the inside of the card comes from the card kit.
