Number of Years & Large Numbers Bundle - Part 1

Just a little over a week ago I finally got my Year of Numbers/Large Numbers Bundle! A perfect time to make all my 8 grandchildren their birthday cards for this year. Six of them have their birthdays between June and mid September! One in February (age 1) and one in November (turning 4).

Here is Taylor's 11th birthday card.

I really like the combination of Lost Lagoon, Mint Macaron, and Pool Party, but I just had to add a little pop of colour to it and chose Daffodil Delight for that.

Here is a little closer look. Die cut letters and numbers sometimes look better with another colour just peeking out from behind.

And here is the side view so that you can see the layering better.

For the inside, I just used a piece of scrap on the side and added a little pop of yellow again.

This is one bundle I highly recommend! And once the 2016 Occasions catalogue expires at the end of May, will you take the chance that it will carry over into the new Annual? I say it is really worth getting before then, just in case, because I can see using this bundle for a long time, even for Project Life, and Scrapbooking! See what I used, below.

Happy creating!

Seashore Stampers Make & Take

As Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, we get together in 'Downline' meetings and 'VanIsle' meetings. You can't help but make friends at these meetings. So our group of six decided to start getting together regularly and call ourselves 'Seashore Stampers'! We take turns hosting, bring potluck for our lunch, discuss ways to be better Demonstrators, teach each other new techniques, and have a couple of Make & Takes each time we get together.

This time I provided a Make & Take. I had two ideas, but didn't know which one to pick. So I made them both and sent my friends a photo of each taking a vote. The winner ended up being the butterfly card. However, I did not want to disappoint those that voted for the World Traveler/Number of Years card either. So I decided, since it is Easter, to create the butterfly kits for the M&T and make the other card as an Easter gift for each of my friends.

Let me show you the 'gift' card first.

I love these soft and 'subtle' colours!

I fussy cut the lovely stamped flowers from the "Number of Years" stamp set and popped it up over the latitude inspired banner strips, that are also popped up.

And on the inside a few more of those lovely flowers.

The "Number of Years" stamp set is part of the 2016 Occasions Catalogue which expires May 31st. So, if you love the look of this stamp set, don't take too long to get it! Below are some of the products used to make this card.
