A #snapchat inspired #flowercrown #cactus Card using Birthday Fiesta by SU!

Hello,
So today I have a fun card using Birthday Fiesta which was totally inspired by the #flowercrown filter that everyone (except me!) is using on #snapchat. Mostly I'm not using it because I don't have snapchat! But all the really cool kids are ;-))))
Any-way- let's move away from how uncool I am take a look at the card shall we?
 I used the googly eyes again and added a mouth using the tiny heart from the Layering Love stamp set.
 The sentiment is also from the Birthday Fiesta stamp set and I used Flirty Flamingo with Smoky Slate as a colour combination.
 The lovely slate colored heart paper is from the "A Little Foxy" paper pad.
Well, I hope you have enjoyed todays "cool" card? Let me know in the comments ;-)
Thanks for looking and I'll be back tomorrow with more,

Detailed Floral Thinlits Dies Gate Fold Card with a Video by SU!

Hello there, 
I have another pretty card using the floral Thinlits Dies, today in Flirty Flamingo. I do love this colour and I decided to make a gate fold-ish style card with the dies, see...
I did back the cut out areas with white card so you couldn't see the writing inside then I used thin navy twine to hold the card closed.
OK, so here's a little video, with the ever lovely Shannon, showing how to make a couple of projects with these dies including a card like the one shown here today :-) Thanks Stampin' Up! :-)
 I also added a little stamping inside using the matching  Floral Phrases stamps.
And one final photo for today.
I do hope you like these dies as much as I do and *Don't forget the BONUS DAYS promo running this July - spend in July to get coupons in August! More details HERE* so July is a great time to purchase these products for freebies in August too!

Llama Love Card using Birthday Fiesta stamps by Stampin' Up!

Hello there,
Today's card is a llama card in a Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Bermuda Bay colour combo for a fun, party-style card! Take a peek...
 I used the baby wipe technique (for a video tutorial please see HERE) for the rug and tucked a little strip of pompom trim under for a bit of a fun twist.
 I used the same baby wipe ink pad for the sentiment which is from the hostess set Pun Intended.
 Die cut streamers in matching colours
I die cut the llama too before popping him up on dimensionals.
OK, that's all from me for today, I'll be back tomorrow with more! Thanks so much for looking today :-)

A Mini Wreath Using Stampin' Up's Jar of Love

Hello there,
 I have another card using Jar of Love today for you. I don't think I have made any cards with this set as the catalogue suggests ;-)
So, I had stamped these mini branches when I made my larger wreath card (see it HERE) a couple of weeks ago but I found them unnecessary so decided to make a mini wreath just with them, take a look...
 I thoguht these branches had a certain retro vibe about them, I'm thinking Orla Keily, or even maybe an olympics style, hence the vellum scroll with the sentiment...
See how I added tiny pieces of dimensionals under one end and glued the branch end down to the card? It adds a bit more dimension when you see it in real life ;-)
  I heat embossed the sentiment as it takes ages to dry when you stamp on Vellum but you can leave it (overnight, maybe) if you don't have clear embossing powder.
So, that's it from me for today but I'll be back tomorrow with another card, 'till then, happy stampin'
