Clean and Simple Lace Ribbon Border Cards

I'm on a roll making sets of cards these days! A US Stampin' Up Demonstrator posted this beauty on our demo only site, and it got my brain rolling. I thought it would make a sweet baby shower card, so created the card below....

Once my Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set was out, I started to look at all those fabby sentiments, and thought it would make a very classy Sympathy Card. So....the next card was created!

Once I used the black on the sympathy card, I started to think a black and silver version would make a stunning Wedding card....

And finally, the fun pops of color were begging to be made into a Birthday card!

Hope you liked these cards. I think I will continue and make them with more sentiments from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set. Can't you see a gorgeous Real Red and Gold one for Christmas?!?

Happy 12th Birthday Big C!

Hey everyone! It's big C's Birthday today (I'm not sure how THAT happened!), and here is the card I made for him. The background is a label from a pair of jeans my mom and dad gave him, and the foreground is done in the "emerging colors" technique outlined in a recent Stampin' Success magazine. I think he'll love it!

Happy Birthday Donna! My SU! "supplier" turns 50 this month and is running a contest at her blog, go check it out http://scrappinwithdonna.typepad.com/stampin_scrappin_with_don/2010/01/im-turning-50-this-month.html . My card is a little unusual, there's more of an extreme, well worn, anti-girlie theme going on here. I'm hoping the message received is "You're 50and you Rock" ;o)
