5 Cards, 2 Sheets of Card Stock

Using just 2 sheets of double-sided card stock, I challenged myself to create 4 cards. I managed to make five. I chose to use these 2 sheets of card stock from My Mind's Eye, Penny Lane-Tiny Dancer-Jazz Collection:

Front and Back


Front and Back


By adding a little embossing, some ink, and a little creativity I made 5 completely different cards.

Birthday Card with Butterflies:
I cut out the Happy Birthday Sentiment from the Stamping Solutions Cartridge. The butterflies were then stamped and applied with pop dots.

Thanks Flower Card:
Flower made from card stock and applied button. Tutorial for flower can be found here. Then "thanks" sentiment was stamped.
All My Love:
I punched the border on the green using a Martha Stewart border punch, then added a ribbon bow, and some bling.
Make a Wish Card:
I embossed the green card stock with the Cuttlebug buttons embossing border folder. Then punched circles and added the stamped images using pop dots.
Baby Carriage Card:
I used the Cuttlebug stitched embossing border folder as well as the Stamp Die and Baby Carriage embossing folder. I also used the Swirls background folder which I went over with blue ink for definition.

Two cards, one layout, and of course there is a freebie!

Happy Thursday!! The week is almost over.....bring on the weekend, we are headed to the coast for our anniversary! Spending it as a family weekend so there will be plenty of photo ops, which of course leads to more scrappy time!!!

So anyway, this week I actually got three projects done! I am so proud of myself! Hehehe! The first, is a card using Lindsay's Bass Guitar stamp. I colored with my Bic Mark-its (as usual,) matted it with some DCWV cardstock and Coredinations cardstock, added some stickles and a Studio G sentiment, and voila: DONE! This seriously took about 15-20 mintutes to make.

Next, I used Lindsay's Funky Tree #1. Love this stamp! Another quick card, I colored with Bic Mark-its and colored pencils, matted with Coredinations cardstock, added a Studio G stamp and sentiment, all done!

Last, but certainly not least is my new FAVORITE LAYOUT, and that's saying alot considering it's not even my kid! LMAO! Love ya sis! This is one of my adorable nieces, Sam who I just happened to catch in a fit of giggles. Coredinations cardstock, sanded, patterned paper is by http://www.kellypanacci.com/, called Giggle Green. I embellished this very little. The dimension that can be seen in the second photo really does a lot for this layout.
