Sunflower
Since it was a beautiful day and it felt kind of like spring, I decided to make a sunflower card tonight. Using my Hexagon punch with coordinating stamps (Six-Sided Sampler), I created the sunflower. The stem was made of out scraps that I had left over from precious creations. I then used my Blossom Petal punch to create the leaves for the stem. This card turned out just the way I envision. I hope that we have more days like today, but I know that temperatures will be dropping again soon and snow is right around the corner. Until next time, happy carding everyone.

Christmas Bulbs!
It is finally Friday. I thought this day was never going to come, but it has finally arrived and I am ready for a very busy weekend. This week has been extremely long with meetings, parent-teacher conferences, and of course the day to day responsibilities of being a teacher. Even though this week has been exhausting, I have been looking forward to receiving more Stampin UP goodies. I even used a few of my new goodies on tonight's creations. Let's discuss tonight's creation.
Using my new Blossom Petals Punch, I punched out four small petals in primary colors to make the Christmas bulbs. I then used the Modern Label to punch out two separate black labels. Once that was done, I cut them into thirds so that I could use the two end pieces as the base of the bulbs. After the bulbs were completed, I used my Bird punch and punched out three branches in black. Then I removed the leaves to give it the appearance of a power cord. Once the string of lights were completed, I stamped "Merry Christmas" from the Sassy Salutations stamp set. Since there was a lot of white space I decided to stamp snowflakes random on the overlay until I was satisfied with it. This was not the card I planned on creating tonight, but when you talk on the phone for over an hour and play with your new goodies, time seems to get away from. This is a simple creation and the person receiving it will enjoy it none the less. Until next time, happy carding everyone!
