This is one of the many cards I’ve made with the Birthday Memories designer series papers from Stampin’ Up! For this project and followed a card layout and idea from Sandi Maclver. I also used some Make it Crafty chipboard embellishments for the sentiment and added some gems for sparkle.

Dudley’s Balloon
I love these little dinosaurs by Little Miss Muffet Stamps so I couldn’t resist coloring up Dudley’s Balloon for a birthday card. These dinos are so fun to color and can really go with any color scheme! I decided to go for pastel colors of turquoise, yellow and gray and bring in a little chic feel with the hounds-tooth decorative paper. Then I used the 3D balloons I have from Stampin’ Up which coordinated quite nicely.
Ice Cream Penguin
Here’s my second project for the release this month show casing the Ice Cream Penguin. I’ve had some rainbow paper hanging around my desk that I has been begging to be used. I tried it on a previous project but it didn’t work out so well. But I tried it again and it became the basis of my color choices. Anyone want some rainbow sherbet?
Birthday Memories – Poodle
I’ve made over 25 cards using the Birthday Memories designer series papers from Stampin’ Up! and so I’m sharing them one Monday at a time. For this project and followed a card layout and idea from Jari (Car-iology). I also used some Make it Crafty chipboard embellishments for the sentiment and added some gems for sparkle.
Splash
This week Whimsy Stamps is show casing all the new releases for this month. For my project, I’m using Splash clear stamp and the Making Waves stencil. This is on a little note card that I cut out using the Card Builder Windows die set. I used Distress Ink on the stencils in two colors to make the waves plus I also stamped the clouds in the same color.
Backyard Houses Garden
It’s another release week this week but I’ve decided to use the Backyard Houses again from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. I’ve mixed at matched from Backyard Houses BBQ and Backyard Houses Garden. For this yard, I choose the objects to make it look like a patio garden. The card was kept simple and I added black elements for interest.
