This Eiffel Tower stamp from the Stampin’ Up!’s Artistic Etchings stamp set and the Basic Gray paper from the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper makes a great silhouette. I stamped the Eiffel Tower on the back of the paper and cut it out carefully with Paper Snips. Looks intricate, but easy to do with these great scissors.
This is not your traditional card size. I started with a 6″x6″ square of Whisper White card stock folded in half for the card base for a 3″x6″ card.
Can you see the pattern on the Summer Starfruit card stock? The crown and key images were stamped with VersaMark ink to create that pattern.
I punched the Primrose Petals oval with the Extra-Large Oval Punch to create the background for the silhouette. I picked the color combination from the Color Coach – a great tool for creative color choices.

I enjoyed creating this playful card featuring the Owl Builder Punch. I love pattern paper and I love, love, love mixing up the patterns which is super easy with Stampin’ Up!’s coordinated designer series paper packs.
This card features the Floral District Designer Series Paper and the vibrant colors of Lucky Limeade and Tangerine Tango.
The large scallop circle is from the Perfect Pennant Bigz Die and is a perfect landing place for our little owl. Other extras include the rhinestone-accented heart and the scallop edge on the Tangerine Tango floral print.

I made this flower with dryer sheets and the Fun Flower Bigz Die. Who knew dryer sheets could be so pretty?! As you might imagine dryer sheets would be hard to cut but if you sandwich the die, then the dryer sheet, and finally card stock you’ll get a clean cut. I only had to clip a couple of hanger-ons.
Once the flower was cut, I spritzed it with color, then outlined it with Dazzling Details Glitter Glue. Of course, then it had to sit and dry. I let it dry completely over night. I set it out on some paper to dry, but I should have set it on wax paper instead since I did have a little trouble with a couple of spots where the glue stuck to the paper.
To assemble the flower, I punched a 1-1/4″ card stock circle from Primrose Petals then stacked the flowers on top, punched the center and adhered them all together with a brad. I punched a 3/4″ card stock circle, adhered the rhinestones and glued that to the top of the brad with a glue dot.
‘Thank you’, from the Just Believe Stamp Set, was stamped in Basic Black full strength and then again without re-inking to get the different varying shades of black and gray.
The Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine makes this all happen – the flower and the beautiful embossed background. The Big Shot has instruction on the multipurpose platform on how to use all the various types of dies, making it super easy to use. Order your Big Shot today and start creating!

The Just Believe Stamp Set is the focus of this creation. I stamped the leaf label in Old Olive ink on Whisper White, then stamped the sentiment on vellum cardstock with Basic Black craft ink, embossed and punched it out with the Extra-Large Oval Punch. The punched oval was layered on top of the label. A close up is below.
The large scallop edge was made with the Tasteful Trim Die and the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine.
The background was stamped with the fantastic large blossom from Betsy’s Blossoms Stamp Set in the beautiful new in-color Raspberry Ripple.
