Photopolymer Happy Birthday!

Hello, stampers. I received my Stampin' UP! order last night! Yippee! So, this morning while it rained, I played with some of my new goodies.  Four of them to be a matter of fact.  To get some inspirational help, I followed the color challenge Just Add Ink #219.   Here's the challenge:

And here's my card: 
 I used two new photopolymer stamp sets called: Age Awareness and Borderettes. These are the very first photopolymer stamps I have bought from SU. The other two new SU goodies I used are the Tiny Triangles embossing folder and Smokey Slate 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon. Photopolymer stamp sets are so cool because you do NOT have to use a stampa-ma-jig to line up images!
I added the row of triangles from the Borderettes stamp set above and below the "happy birthday" phrase without using my stampa-ma-jig.  How cool is that?   Colors are: Basic Black, Crushed Curry and Smokey  Slate.
I also colored around the "happy birthday" phrase using the lightest color of Blendabilities from the Daffodil Delight family.  And then to finish off my card and to give it some sparkle, I added some Dazzling Details.  Oh so much fun!

Thanks for stopping by.  Happy Stamping!

    Wow, what a lot of fun you've had with your new 'toys', Annette! I love the triangular elements, and the stars - and especially like the way you've added colour around the sentiment. Very cool birthday card! Thanks for playing along with us at Just Add Ink this week!

    Great card - I am looking forward to trying out the photopolymer stamps too - and I love the idea of lining everything up with no SAMG. I love how you have positioned you little triangles from the Borderettes stamp set and I think the Age Awareness set is on my list now too. Chantell JAI

    Wow this is bold and bright and a wonderful birthday card Annette! Love your idea of using the yellow blendability to trace around the sentiment - makes such a bold statement. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.

Quilt card

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home.  I added the embossed flower using  the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue .  These two stamp sets work well together.  The flower petals were made with  the Floral Frames Framelits die.  I will probably store these two sets together. : )  Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb. Folder, Pool Party SAB button and Whisper White Bakers Twine. Enjoy your day!  I have limited time to create my youngest child's birthday card...which is tomorrow!  Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies !  How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe.  I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words   Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer.   I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies.    I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
