Girly cards

Here is a selection of "girly" cards. They could be used for birthdays or just to say hello.  The world needs more of "just saying hello" - and something more tangible than a text!! I swiped over the embossed background with white chalk and the leaves are cut from dot embossed paper.  The sentiment was hand coloured then "huffed" before stamping. I trimmed it to fit a scalloped oval punch out that I edged with orange chalk. The small oval is "popped" up on the scalloped oval.

Supplies:
Card - 
Paper - pumpkin pie, whisper white and kiwi kiss card stock from SU, unknown DSP
Stamp - "Oval All" from SU
Ink - white and orange chalk, kiwi kiss marker from SU, orange Tombow marker
Tools - Cuttlebug and "swiss dots" and "victoria" embossing folders, scallop oval punch and two step bird punch (leaves only) from SU
Other - orange spot ribbon from American crafts, light green rhinestones from Kaisercraft
Adhesive - snail, sticky strip and dimensionals


This card involves several layers and sponging to tie it all together. The DSP is layered onto old olive and sponged with the same then that is layered onto a purple cardstock that is sponged with brown and that is all layered onto brown card stock.  The sentiment panel is also sponged with olive and popped up on dimensionals.  The three circle motifs are fussy cut from a paper scrap and popped up on dimensionals.  The ribbon is stuck down straight across the purple panel and the bow tied separately and secured with a glue dot.

Supplies:
Card - 
Paper - chocolate chip and old olive card stock from SU, purple and buttermilk yellow card stock from stash, unknown DSP from stash
Stamp - "Vintage Labels" from SU
Ink - rich razzleberry from SU, olive marker from Tombow, old olive and chocolate chip from SU
Tools - scallop oval punch from SU, stamp-a-ma-jig from SU (to align the sentiment in the oval label)
Other - ribbon from American crafts
Adhesive - snail, sticky strip, dimensionals, glue dots


This card also uses the vintage label set.  I have covered portions of the pattern with crystal effects to give an epoxy sticker look. The image was fussy cut from a 6x6 pad piece.


Supplies:
Card - 
Paper - chocolate chip card stock from SU, watermelon plain paper from CM, dark pink and cream card stock from stash, image from DSP 6x6 pad "Hey Birdie" from Kaisercraft
Stamp - "Vintage labels" from SU
Ink - old olive from SU, pink marker from Tombow
Tools - scallop circle punch from SU
Other - crystal effects from SU, pink rhinestones from Kaisercraft
Adhesive - snail, dimensionals

Happy crafting!
cheers 
Susie
