Flip It Daisy Card

I recently have been using Dazzles stickers.  You know the ones that are the gold or silver outlines stickers?  They have these lines you can buy and I used some gold ones on the card below.  They make an easy and elegant accent.

This card is really basic.  I wanted something simple and classic.


 Inside:
I like the simplicity of this card.  One thing though, there is only a small space to write a note without seeing the printing when the card is closed (stop by tomorrow for an example).

Hope you liked my card, stop by again soon!

Flip It Cards! Flip it Butterfly Card

Today I would like to introduce my very first flip it card!  What is a flip it? It is a card that, when you open it, the front flips to show a different design or picture.  Flip It cards are not new and have been around for a long time. What is new is the Sizzix die that will easily cut one for you!  Yahoo!

Flip it Butterfly:

(You will have to pardon the bad stamping.  Sometimes my ideas don't come out! LOL! )

As you can see on the front of the card, there is a square that I have decorated.


The Inside:
When I open the card, you can see the back side of the square and a different design.

Click HERE for a quick video explanation of the card's movement.


Another look at the folds of the card:



Come back tomorrow for another flip it card!

Uncle Sam Wants You! Card

Today's card features a famous icon...Uncle Sam!  There actually was an Uncle Sam who lived in Troy New York (I know this because I lived there too!)  This image was and still is used, amazing isn't it.


The Uncle Sam sticker is from K&Company (of course). The flowers on each side are Dazzles from Paper Wishes.




You can really see the 3-D sticker in this side view.  I also used gold Dazzle stickers (the gold lines) to further outline the card. 


You that you are enjoying all the red, white and blue cards this year!

American Flag Card

When I saw the K&Company stickers I knew I had to have some. (I try not to buy stickers because I always seem to have some leftover.  But I couldn't resist these.)

I started out with blue and red ribbon and added a red foil border.


As you can see, I only used one really BIG sticker, the FLAG!  It's such a cool sticker and it's 3-D. 


Close Up!





Thanks for stopping by!  Take care and hope to see you tomorrow!

USA with Banner Card

Today's card is really easy to make!

I started with a K&Company border.  I used two of the same borders, cut them up and then layered them to create a 3-D look.  I created two mini borders and placed them together to make faux rosettes. 


I added a second flag banner sticker to my card also.


Close up!

Aren't these letters cute?


I found some bakers twine in red, white and blue and used that in my buttons and to make a simple bow.

Hope you enjoyed this quick card. See ya tomorrow!
