Birthday Cake

 

Use Stampin Up's 'Piece of Cake' stamp set to make this birthday greeting card

This is a fairly simple card to make and although I've made mine into a birthday card, there are other cake designs to use from the stamp set that it could be adapted for other occaisions such as a wedding card.

Birthday Doilies

 

Use Stampin Up's Dear Doily die set to create this pretty but simple greeting card

I picked out one of my stamp and die sets at random this week and challenged myself to make a card with it. I picked out the 'Dear Doily' set by Stampin Up. I had a vision in my head of how I wanted the card to go but I just couldn't get the doilies to look right! Sometimes it's just best to walk away and come back with a fresh head another day. This is what I did and came up with this card:

It's quite a simple card but you can change the colours so easily and the greeting too so this could be a greeting card for almost any occaision.

If you don't have this specific die, you can use any doilies from your craft stash or cut circles out instead.

Use Stampin Up's Waterfront stamp set to create this really pretty greeting card

This is a fab stamp set as it requires just inks, no colouring in, and it produces a lovely watercolour feel to the image.

Each of the objects, ie mountain, land and water are their own stamp so you can make up various landscape designs, just by changing their position and colour. My card is a beach style card with little beach huts but you could just as easily use it to create a forest scene.

I've used a greeting from another stamp set as I wanted a simple greeting. However there are some nice ones that come with the waterfront stamp set and you may just have to change the placing of the greeting banner depending on the size of the greeting chosen

Toot your own horn

 

Use Lawn Fawns Critter Concert Stamp and die set to make this 'Cause you're awsome' card

I thought this card would make a great well done on your exam's card, but could be for so many other occaisions where someone has done something brilliant or just to tell them they are awesome.

Rather than place the layers directy ontop of each other, I have offset them at an angle.  This adds a different look to your card and if you are someone who struggles to get the layers squarly positioned - just go for the purposely jaunty look :)

Magic Picture Changer

 

A picture changing card where the flowers grow

I really like interactive cards and this one is really fun. Just pull the tab up and the picture changes from a pot of stems being watered to a pot full of pretty flowers. All done with Lawn Fawn's Magic Picture Changer die set.

Lawn Fawn have a few stamp sets that work well with this magic changer die set such as fox's that change outfits. However you can use other stamp sets - a bare tree and then one with leaves or blossom would work quite well.
