YOU BRIGHTEN MY LIFE

HEY BLOGGIES,

Do you ever make a second or third card of the same design because you loved that design so much?

Well, that is what I have for you today,  Months and months ago, I made this simple but cute card and I recently saw a photo of it and knew I had to make it AGAIN for someone special.,

First, I love the bright crushed curry with the quiet and unassuming gray.  Then I absolutely LOVE the little banner punches YAH, YAH, YAH.  I got the Beatles' song in my head as I made it, "She Loves YOU, YAH, YAH, YAH",.  Ha ha, now YOU have that song going around in YOUR head!!

I used the Kinda Eclectic sunburst behind the light bulb so it looked like the bulb was shining.  I used a ton of Crystal Effects on the bulb itself to make it all shiny (sorry the photo doesn't show it very well.)

The bitty banner under the bulb says YOU BRIGHTEN MY LIFE.  I just can't stand it when my phone won't take a clear focused shot.  I didn't notice that you can't read that saying until I posted it tonight.  And the problem is I ALREADY MAILED IT!!  soooooo sorry.

I would love to hear about the time you made several of the same card because you loved the design.  Especially if it did it weeks or months after the construction of the first one!!

Thanks for visiting.  Happy Tuesday evening to y'all.

YOU BRIGHTEN MY DAY

hey bloggies,

 YOU BRIGHTEN MY DAY is the perfect card for my hubby for our anniversary this week.  I used the splatter stamp from GORGEOUS GRUNGE by SU!  for the background and then the sunshine  rays behind the light bulb in crushed curry.  The light bulb was fussy cut and put on dimensionals, with the heart in the middle in melon mambo ink.

Made this larger so you could see the details of my card.

This is another card that was quick and easy card with the background and sentiment stamp from this set.  I stamped the background rays 4 times to make a circle and put the sentiment in the middle on some DSP and layered grey behind it.  I added some square sequins randomly around the card to finish off a clean and simpole card,.

WATTS UP?

HEY BLOGGIES,

Today I have a different kind of entry for you - this is not a Stampin' Up! set that I used but I fell in love with this set when I saw it and just have been having the best fun using it!!

 Isn't this light bulb just the cutest?!!  I am loving it and have made three or four cards with it this weekend.  Stay tuned for more postings this week using this stamp set and papers.

 

 I used some generic sequins on this card to add some shine or bling which it just needed since it is a light bulb shining, right?  I love this striped paper and cut it to have the chevron part just a little bit off center.  I also made the main piece a little bit taller than the card for some visual effects.  I just basically thought it needed to look like this.  What do you think?

Here is a closeup of the banner popped up with dimensionals.  Another look I felt it needed and I love how it looks,.

Thanks for stopping by.  Come back again to see some more cards with this stamp set.
