When I sat down at my craft table, I had no idea what I was going to do. All I knew was that I wanted to use the new Swirly Bird stamp set and the new Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Dies. Letting new stamps and dies just lay around makes me crazy but I've not had a lot of time to spend in the craft studio. Nice weather seems to see me running around all over the place.
My supply of note cards was getting low and I couldn't decide what sentiment to use so this was a perfect card to add to my file. I try to write a note to friends and family as often as I can and this will be perfect to send to one of my granddaughters. Bright, cheerful and sunny, just like them.
Stamp Set: Swirly Bird; Inks: Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, Sweet Sugarplum; Cardstock: Daffodil Delight, Emerald Envy, Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo, Sweet Sugarplum; Accessories & Tools: Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Dies, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Clear Wink of Stella Brush

Crushed Curry Petals
Wow! It isn't often that three challenges come along that can fit one card. I love it when that happens. It needed to be clean and simple using the code word "petals" for the Addicted to CAS Challenge so I used some cute little flowers. The top row of the Tic-Tac-Toe was my choice for The Paper Players Challenge, which is why I made the Crushed Curry twine. For the one year old or older stamp set to show off some May flowers for the Retro Rubber Challenge, I used the Nature's Perfection stamp set from the 2015 Sale-A-Bration Brochure. How do you think I did?
One of the things I never have on hand is the right color of baker's twine. So, I keep plenty of white in the drawer. Why? I can make it any color I want. Now, how cool is that! The Whisper White Baker's Twine was dyed using Crushed Curry ink and a Blending Tool. Simple!
You can't see it, but the Crushed Curry flowers were coated with a Clear Wink of Stella Brush. The shimmer looks so nice on those little flowers.
Stamp Sets: Butterfly Basics (sentiment), Nature's Perfection (2015 Sale-A-Bration); Ink: Crushed Curry, Emerald Envy; Cardstock: Crushed Curry, Whisper White; Accessories & Tools: Flower Box Sprigs & Flowers (Taylored Expressions), Whisper White Baker's Twine, Wink of Stella Brush Clear

Beautiful Birthday
Card stock, ribbon and stamp make for a very nice card. I love the clean crisp lines of this one. In going through one of my storage totes I came across some retired card stock that I didn't know I had so using it for my Card Buffet makes sense. Tomorrow I'll show you one other card made for the Card Buffet then, I'll have something different to share with you.
Stamp Set: Beautiful Birthday - retired (Stampin' Up!); Ink: Pool Party (Stampin' Up!); Card Stock: Whisper White, Not Quite Navy - retired (Stampin' Up!); Accessories & Tools: Decorative Dots Embossing Folder, 1/8" Pool Party Ribbon - retired (Stampin' Up!), Dimensionals
