I *heart* Moustaches! with Be the Star by Stampin' Up

Hello there!
I'm here today with another card from class this week, If you skipped the title of this post then I have to mention now I *heart* moustaches! I just love the quirky-ness of them, and teamed with stars then it's an all round winner in my book! Perfect guys cards in a snap! 
This moustache was cut from the Moonlight paper stack, I have used both the stacks (find them on page 185) so much these last few weeks, they are just fab and so reasonable at just £6.25 each too ;-)
 so this is the whole card I made with the Moustache Framelit and Be the Star stamp set....
I used a classic colour combo of Sahara Sand (card base and small stars) Smoky Slate (large stars) and Night of Navy (star bursts, sentiment and card layer) with little silver glimmer paper stars on the small stamped stars. This sentiment is just one of the  ones included in the Be the Star stamp set.
OK, that's all from me for today,
I'll be back soon with more cardy fun for you!!
Stampin' hugs for now

Garden Party, Think Happy and Watercolour Thank-You stamps by Stampin' Up! all on one card!

***EDITED TO SAY I HAVE DONE A LITTLE TUTORIAL HERE FOR THE CLOUDS FROM THINK HAPPY :-)***
Hello there,
I have another class today and I wanted to share with you this card which is just one of those we will be making later. We used a selection of stamp sets for this card hence the rather long title today ;-) but I think they work wonderfully together creating a fun and happy looking card, what do you think?
 I used a basic colour combo of Strawberry Slush with Soft Sky with the highlighting colours being the new In Colour Lost Lagoon; used for the outer rim of the cloud and the flowers leaves are stamped in Wild Wasabi. I *heart* this Strawberry thick bakers twine too!
Cloud TOP TIP: stamp the outer cloud first then line up the SAMJ and fill in with the swirls, there's less chance of pressing too hard and spoiling your cloud/card with excess ink from the centre of the outline stamp. I can do a photo tutorial if you need? Let me know :-)
 These super sweet flowers are from the lovely Garden Party stamp set and I inked them using markers in Strawberry Slush and Wild Wasabi which I think is a really bright modern looking green.
 and the lovely Watercolour Thank-You, another font that would make a fabulous Happy Birthday (Pretty please SU!) ;-) this was again done in Strawberry Slush.
and the whole card again to finish today!
OK, that's all from me for now, I must dash and get ready for my ladies today!
Thanks for looking today and if you have any questions please do ask away in the comments here :-)

Dotty Angles Photopolymer Stamps by Stampin' Up with Gold Satin Ribbon!!

Hello!
I'm back today with a sweet card I am making at class this week, I'm soooo excited SU! have brought back satin ribbon!! I just love how it ties perfect bows!! I'm sure there will be plenty of grumbling from my class ladies when they see this bow though ;-) They might know there will be a few {many} more to come....
So, this card is in a simple colour combo of Crisp Cantaloupe and white with the Gold satin, the sentiment is stamped in Hello Honey to co-ordinate...
 Love, love, love this ribbon!! I do have a video sharing my bow tying tips with you HERE, or if you live in the South of England why not come along to a class and get some first hand help? Message me to join us!
 And some sequins finish this card perfectly.
 I think it would make a great Anniversary card or perhaps a "keep your chin up" type of card with this sentiment? It's from Perfect Pennants - remember the Banner dies that go with this stamp set are on offer this week ;-)
OK, That's me done for today, I'll be back tomorrow with another card for you :-)
Thanks as ever for looking today!
Stampin' Hugs,
