Masculine Birthday 2


I guess I'm on a roll with masculine Birthday cards! This one is fairly simple and came together quickly. I used the card design from over at Linda Heller's Stamping School. This is the second time I used this interesting fold. I just ordered the International Bazaar DSP paper #126920, and I'm really liking the colors and patterns of this DPS and can see how I will be using this for more masculine cards. The card base is Crumbcake #120953; Expresso Brown #119686; Lucky Limeade #122926; and Naturals White #102316 finish it off. I used one of the Apothecary Accent Framelits #127003 to frame the Friendly Phrases #126151 sentiment. I also decided to use the new
 Chevron Folder #127749 to add more interest to this somewhat plain card.

 Have a wonderful and CRAFTY week! BernieB

Scentsational Christmas Tree


This is a card that I made just playing with the Scentsational Seasons  clear #121190. The card is 4x4 and I cased it from a card that I saw on Stampin Connections, although I did change it up. I stamped the sentiment on Whisper White card stock # 100730  instead of on a tag . I also used punched circles  3/4" #119873 and 1" #119868 and a Designer printed brad #122940. The sentiment is from the, More Merry Messages  clear #126402) stamped in Cherry Cobbler  #126966. The paper is from the great little stack, Festival of Prints DPS #126904. Such fun patterns, colors and a handy card makers size of 4 1/2" x 6 1/2", The card base is Cherry Cobbler solid card stock. #119685. I did emboss the image with Scented Stampin' Emboss Powder, Peppermint Stick #127830 and used a Rhinestone Basic Jewel  #119246 for the star center. Using the Framelits Dies and buying it Bundled  #129946 (clear stamp bundle) with the Scentsational Season stamp set, not only made this card go together quickly, but it saves 15% on buying them individually.

Have a great and crafty day! BernieB
