Vertical Joy Fold Card




More images from Close to my Heart's (CTMH) "Beary Busy" stamp set. So cute! I finished coloring the bear, or so I thought, but then I told myself that if that bear had been gardening, the overalls would not be so clean! It was amusing to add "dirt" to the denim.

Heidi Swapp cardstock is featured, and I used the Spellbinders Deckled Rectangle Nestabilities set to cut the decorative cardstock. Martha Stewart's embossed button punch made the accent I used to hold the flap closed. Like the baby shower card in an earlier post, this finished card measures 6" square.

Copics with CTMH's "Beary Busy" Image


I bought this set of stamps because I thought that they would be good coloring candidates! The sentiment at the bottom of the card is part of the set. The Deckled Rectangles Nestabilities set from Spellbinders did a good job cutting out the green decorative paper and embossing it.
I added accents with a white gel pen and Stardust glitter pen (on the headlamps).

Baby Shower Table Decoration: A Silhouette made with my Silhouette!

The figure is in mint green and is about 11" high. Cut heavyweight (Bazzill) brown cardstock into strips 12" x 2.5" (two per decoration). Cut just a little more than halfway across the brown strip at the 2" mark. Folded each strip 2" above the partial cut. Glued the mint green silhouettes starting at the fold; top of the brown strip came to about her neck. Connected the two strips at the partial cut point (made it easy to fold flat for carrying to the shower location). Used glue dots at her head and neck to secure.
