Valentine's Day in August

I got these stickers in January with my $5 voucher from Michael's. Time to put them on cards. I used my small Cuttlebug folders to emboss a frame for each of them - four hearts and five squares. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado. The stickers already had a lot of dimension.

And, all nine of them.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

More "Tile" Stickers

Well, I did it - I used up all 35 of the tile stickers that I got. Here are the rest of the cards. Some are very similar, but no two are the same.

Butterfly Stickers - Used up!

I bought this package of butterfly stickers in January and I have already used them all up on these cards. Yay me. 😊 I used various papers and sentiments.

A Note to Say Hello

I spent much of Thursday afternoon of last week in my stamping room, and it was great! I used up more card parts. These two foiled pieces were some of them. I matted them and popped the sentiment panel up on foam squares. I added the butterfly sticker. The background is from a matstack I just got at Michaels because I couldn't resist the sale. LOL!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Thinking of You Butterflies

Another card made with a card part using the same punch as Wednesday's card. I had ink blended the color over it. I scored lines on the unpunched part and added the sentiment. I also added a couple butterfly stickers.

Simple Birthday Presents

Here is another stamp I got from my friend who was "cleaning house." It's from Stamps by Judith and Heather. I simply colored it, using the packaging as a guide. I added some Star Dust Stickles to the bows and ribbons. The sentiment is a rub-on from Mrs. Grossman's stickers. I am slowly getting them used up!

Birthday for a Friend

We recently visited some friends, and she is a card maker. She had many things that she was giving away, so I went shopping and chose a few things. This Gina K set was one of the items that I selected. The image and sentiments, including the dies, were part of the set. I added the butterfly sticker, which came from the Dollar Tree. The edges of the image panel are thin metallic stickers.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Hedgehog Birthday in Pink

This stamped image has been in my card parts for MANY years! I finally colored it up and cut it out with a Gina K die. I sponged a bit of black around the edges and popped it up on foam squares. The background paper is very ancient Stampin' Up! The sentiment is another Mrs. Grossman's sticker. I only have a few left of those, too.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Birthday Leaves

Five more card parts used up. I had one of this first color and four of the second. I had stamped them quite a while ago intending to cut them out, but they were stamped too close together. Oh well, they made pretty pieces this way. I mounted them on foam squares. And now they are gone. The sentiments on them all are Mrs. Grossman's stickers.

It's hard to tell, but I embossed the bottom panel of this card with a Gina K folder.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Noah's Ark Stickers

I had these stickers that needed to be used up. I believe they came from Darnell, who very generously sent a box of stamping supplies for our granddaughter, Ameila, a couple years ago. Amelia recently realized that she would not be using the stickers, and returned them to me. So here they are! For this first one, I used strips from a stack of patterned paper that I bought awhile back to make the background. These strips were the very tops of the pages.

The sentiment on this one and the next are from Technique Tuesday. I used a die to emboss the circle on the turtle one.

The sentiment on this one is from Stampin' Up!

Stickers

Well, I got home from my retreat on Sunday. I ended up making 40 cards, so I guess that was quite successful. It was a great time. It was kind of fun having "limited supplies," even though I had quite a bit with me. I had prepared a few things to take with me, including some stenciled pieces and also I had added these stickers to cardstock and matched up some cardstock for matting. So here are the first six of the cards that I made. I won't go into much detail, as they are all quite simple. I stenciled the background on this one and the next using a Gina K stencil.

This one has a background done with a cover plate die.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Graduation Congrats

Someone at the scrapbooking (stamping for me!) retreat asked me if I could make a graduation card for her. Not having all my supplies here, I did the best I could. Someone had the sticker that I used - I added it to a piece of cardstock and trimmed it down. I die-cut the sentiment out of thick white card and also some silver cardstock and layered them together. I embossed the bottom of the card with a Darice folder, scored a couple lines with my ScorBuddy, and matted the panel with silver. She was pleased enough with it.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

And More Stickers!

I believe these are Mary Englebreit stickers. I embossed this background with a Spellbinders M-bossibilities folder and then rubbed white ink over the embossing.

The cardbase on this one is ivory. 

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Five More Sticker Cards

I've had these stickers for many, many years. I made these simple cards with them. The stickers themselves are white with lines around the edge. The sentiment on this card is from Stampin' Up! I colored the image with Copic markers.

I matted this panel with white and added it to a card base. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.

The embossing was done with a Darice folder.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

More Stickers

Using up some more stickers. I already tossed the packaging, so I don't know who these were from. I added the stickers to scraps of white cardstock and then matted them with black and added them to a card front. Then I added the sentiments, which are all from Gina K. Another package of stickers used up. I really don't have very many left. Yippee!! These stickers do have some dimension.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Birthday Daisies

Another card using up some stickers. I made four of these cards. The daisy stickers were from Martha Stewart. I embossed the bottom with an Anna Griffin folder from Cuttlebug. I also added a couple embossed lines with my Scor-Pal and then drew black lines on them for emphasis. I stamped the sentiment, from Bo Bunny, before embossing. Added a matting layer of yellow and called it done.

Teacher Thank You

Awhile ago, I went through my stickers and pulled some out to use and set the rest aside to give away. These were in my "to use" box, so yesterday I used them. The apple has lots of dimension! I think this would be a great thank you for a teacher. I'll save it for next year and give it to Cheryl for the thrift store.
