Labeled with Love Birthday

I have a sweet and simple card to share today, using the Labeled with Love Bundle and the To Market Designer Series Paper. I was excited to find that these stamped flowers work beautifully with the flowers on the paper! 

If you need to make a batch of cards in a hurry, this design would work with just about any DSP you have on hand.

To Market with Labeled with Love


Normally I love a stamp and punch bundle, but in this case I was quite conflicted. The Labeled with Love Bundle is available both as stamp set + punch bundle and stamp set + die bundle. I could see advantages to both - punches are so quick and easy, and portable, but the set of 3 dies enables you to cut out multiples at a time, and you can cut out from the middle of the card, where the punch won't reach. Obviously, the solution to this dilemma is to get both!

I pulled out some Designer Series Paper that I haven't used yet, called To Market. It has some fun produce-themed images and also some great background patterns. There's a whole co-ordinating Suite of products in the same theme, in the colours of Blackberry Bliss, Garden Green, Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red. For this card, I chose this checked Blackberry Bliss pattern.

The rest of the card is pretty simple (with a layout borrowed from the Annual Catalogue).
 
As the card says, Enjoy Today!

Round We Go Card Set


Here is my set of Round We Go cards. I've used the same colour combination - Pretty in Pink, Petunia Pop and Berry Burst - for all of them, but by changing out the mix of stamps and dies that I used, don't they all look so different? 

And don't worry, you'll be seeing lots more of this set!

Round We Go Rosettes


When I pulled out the Round We Go Bundle, I wasn't sure what to make, so I started by experimenting with the rosette die. You can make all different shapes and sizes with this die, by varying the length and width. You can use the full width (as I've done here) or die-cut a narrower strip and use either the scalloped end or the pointy end facing outwards to change the look. You can make a fuller rosette by joining 3 or 4 lengths together (this is 3), or use 2 to make a regular one. You can change the look again by using DSP instead of cardstock. This one has been made using the Full of Life Designer Series Paper. Endless Options! 

I've popped this one on a card, but you can use them anywhere your imagination takes you. You can see everything I used listed below. Click on the pictures for more detail.

Round We Go Birthday


Here's another fun card using the  Round We Go Bundle. Instead of making a rosette using the rosette die, I've left it unfolded and used it to make a scalloped belly band. In fact I didn't make any actual rosettes for this card, instead I had fun just stamping them!

You can see everything I used listed below. Thanks for visiting!

Pretty Round We Go

I've been playing with the Round We Go Bundle for this week's cards. I wanted a sweet and pretty colour combination, so I chose Pretty in Pink and Petunia Pop. This was my first play with this set, so I started by cutting out some of the die-cut elements and having a play, making rosettes and other fun shapes. 

This is definitely a card that you'd want to give in person, rather than through the mail!
