A Wedding Card

I got my L❤VE Centerpieces dies from MFT long after Valentines Day, but with an upcoming wedding, thought it perfect to use for a young couple's special day!
Their colors were...
...and although I could not incorporate the green, found a peachy pink piece of paper, combined with the dark purple and white to make my shaker wedding card.  Pretty simple, but pretty fun:)!!
Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa

Rainbow Quick Card Panel Used Two Ways

The rainbow colored Spring Fling Quick Card Panel from Reverse Confetti is one of my favorite pieces of rainbow papers EVAH!!  I only wish I could get it in 12 x 12 pieces!! I LOVE the colors and that there is NO WHITE....ALL COLOR...and wonderful color, too!!   I made a couple cards using one of my 4 1/2 x 3 1/4 pieces...
 This first card I die cut with the rainbow stripes vertical.  I also used a new Confetti cut sentiment  die from Reverse Confetti from the Fancy Words set, with a  Coordinating sentiment stamp and a Pina Colada Quick Card panel!
The second card used the remainder of the Quick Card panel, this time placed horizontally  behind the die cut numbers, then used another of the Reverse Confetti Fancy Words Coordinates stamps.  Rainbow just make me so stinkin happy...yep...I'm HAPPY:)!!  Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
Oh...the pink words above are links to the products at Reverse Confetti(somehow I can't link the products with Inlinkz??!!), but wanted you to see that this is what the rainbow panel looks like...

Other things I used on my cards:

Four, One Layer Tulip Cards

I am in love with seeing tulips on cards right now, so I used a stamp set from Simon Says Stamp that had not only a really pretty tulip stamp, but some wonderful quote stamps that I thought went perfectly with some pretty tulips...four, one-layer cards...
 I stamped the quotes in black and clear embossed...the shine looks pretty IRL!

 OK...this was SO MUCH FUN!!
Second generation stamping on this one.
 Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa



Sparkle Power

I used one of the sentiments from a newly released stamp set from Reverse Confetti called Shine From Within, to make a "sparkly" card...
 I thought this sentiment would be perfect with a sole sparkly flower!  Only thing is, I could only find clear flowers...so I colored the petals and center with my sharpie and mark it markers...
THEN, I versamarked the edges of the black card and using clear embossing powder, heated up the edges for some very cool shine that went with the sentiment (I am LOVING doing this on A LOT of cards these days:)!!)...Popped up the sentiment/flower panel on the black card...

Spring Tulips

I had used my Memory Box Tulip dies about 3 years ago to make a tulip card...had the idea to make another card like it, with some inspiration, for the CAS(E) this Sketch sketch this week...here's my card, the sketch, and my inspiration...
The sentiment is from Hero Arts (Thank you Messages...retired:(!), and also Memory Box Gentle Leaf for the stems' leaves (also appears to be retired).  

Simply done...always fun!!!  Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
OK...just read Leslie's comment...SO LAUGHING...you are so right!!!...
Red Hat Society...LOVE!!!
