Sunbursts and Miracles

I love it when the sun peeks from behind the clouds and makes it look like a miracle. So when I started playing with this sunburst framelit... I saw all sorts of potential. Here are few cards and projects from the past few days...

STARTING THE DAY ANEW WITH A CUP OF COFFEE AND YOU!

This is my Monthly Swap Club card- theme: "New Beginnings"- 

because a cup of coffee and a miracle cloud sounds like a great new beginning!

Stamps and dies from the SU! 2016 Occasions catty… All the words (inside it says "Happy Birthday to You" are from Sunburst Sayings. And the hearts are from A Nice Cuppa. For the cutting, I used the Sunburst and Cups & Kettle Dies as well as my circle punches. 

I used two Splitcoaststamper challenges: Color Challenge SC568: Saffron Gray Sky (So Saffron yellow, Smokey Slate gray, Soft Sky blue) and Sketch Challenge SC579.

SUNSHINY PEEP HELLO!

Stamps and dies from the 2016 Occasions catty… 

SU! Stamps: Sunburst Sayings and Honeycomb Happiness. Inside the card it says "You're so Sweet" from Honeycomb Happiness.

SHARING COCOA WITH MY VALENTINE...

Stamps and dies from the 2016 Occasions catty… 

SU! Stamps: Perpetual Birthday Calendar (hearts), Sunburst Sayings (dots and squiggle lines). and the Cups & Kettle framelits for the cups, heart, and spoon.

I made the straws by stamping the squiggle lines from Sunburst Sayings on paper and then rolling them. 

Thanks for looking!

Getting Creative Again!

I never really stop being creative.... but I'd rather stamp and cut paper then upload photos and post... so two months later... here are a few of my fave cards I created over that time. And as always, my recipes for my cards are on Splitcoaststampers in my gallery: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=91627

Hot Tubbing Owls- feeling warm and fuzzy- this was my Dec 2015 Swap Club submission theme “Warm Fuzzies”… I used the Owl punch, the Bird punch and SU! Stamps: Delight in Life, Enjoy Every Moment, Hardwood, Get Well Soup, All Boxed Up, Cottage Greetings.

  

Two Sunshine and Tea cards... 

Life is Good- The Kettle's On- from 2016 Occasions catty… loving the new Sunburst and Cups and Kettle diecuts! SU! Stamps: Project Life- Remember This for “Life is Good”, Tin of Cards “a happy hello” and the squiggle line inside the card, Sunburst Sayings “you BRIGHTEN my day”. 

Life is Good- Two for Tea- SU! Stamps: Project Life- Remember This for “Life is Good”, Tin of Cards “a happy hello” and the squiggle line inside the card. The cups are Cherry Cobbler on Tangelo Tangerine. They were inspired by the lovely cups by Michelle Zindorf.

Hello Honeycomb cute bird cards

This darling little bird from Honeycomb Happiness grabbed my heart for several cards:

Peep- Oh Hello and DSP- SU! Stamp: Honeycomb Happiness (bird and “oh hello”). The paper is all from (retired) International Bazaar DSP (designer specialty paper).

Peep- Just Because, You’re so Sweet. SU! Stamp: Honeycomb Hello, Tin of Cards "Just Because", Bordering Blooms (the vine stamp). Handpicked framelit for the signs. (Thanks Hermelinda for the inspiration to use these little signs like this!) The DSP is (retired) Sweet Sorbet.

Here are all the variations… just changing out the sign’s messages…

    

Watsonville Airshow Love…  I live in an area where there are tons of fields of crops that grow well in coastal California weather… artichokes, strawberries, etc. We also have an annual airshow with cool old planes here. So when I saw the artichoke plants and the old bi-plane, I just had to create this one. SU! Stamps: Flowering Fields, Sky is the Limit, and A Dozen Thoughts. The DSP is (retired) Twitterpated.

Disney Rewards Gift Card Holder

And here is a gift card holder I made for my grown up son’s birthday (a true Disney Fan)….
