Another Button Buddies baby card

The baby rattle in the Button Buddies card makes a great focal point for this card.  The second layer of this card was texturized using the Backgrounds #1 Textured Plates.  The Very Vanilla cardstock that the blue rattle was stamped on was cut out using the Big Shot Die-Cut Machine and the Scallop Rectangle Clearlit Die.  These cards are quick and easy to make with not a lot of fuss.  I am running low and need to make somre more to have on hand.

For You Days of Gratitude card

Here is a card that I made for one of my friends at work.  It was her last day today and to celebrate her new venture I made her a "for you" (instead of good-bye) card.  All of us at work signed the inside of it.  I hope she liked it.

This card was made using the Days of Gratitude stamp set and a bunch of Stampin' Write Markers.  First I colored the whole image with a Peach Parfait Stampin' Write Marker, I then went some of the stamp with an Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker and then finally colored the edge with a Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write Marker.  It turned out to be a fall colored card which I think suits the big stamp perfectly.

Stampin' Up! supplies used:

Stamp sets: Days of Gratitude, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Paper: Crumb Cake card stock, Choclate Chip card stock, Very Vanilla card stock, Pear Pizzazz card stock

Ink: Peach Parfait Stampin' Write Marker, Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker, Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write Marker

Accessories: Scallop Border Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, Antique Brad, Paper Piercer, Jewellery Tag Punch, Pumpkin Pie 1-1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon (retired).

Happy Stamping!
