Shenanigans


"Make a wish and give it wings
Dreams of bright and beautiful things
Dance through all the fun filled hours
Don't forget to smell the flowers
Share some love and birthday cake
All life joys are yours to take
And when evening comes to view
Thank your lucky stars you're you"

I'm seriously excited to be showcasing two cards today made from Shenanigans, one of the sets from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps June Release. This set has many large sentiments and corresponding smaller sentiments. Perfect for birthdays or really any celebration for that matter! For my first card, I started with an embossed polka dotted base, added a real candle (carefully wittled away the wax on the back side) and then added a sentiment strip in green. The white heat embosssed sentiment from Shenanigans is a perfect compliment to the candle. I finished the card with a bow of May Arts Black Silk 1/8" ribbon.


Along the same lines as the above card, I started this one with a white card base, adhered some fun confetti based patterned paper to most of the front and then stamped in green one of the larger sentiments from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Shenanigans set, and then added a corresponding smaller sentiment. I also finished this card with a bow of silk ribbon.

  2. Your stamping is amazing...so clear and vibrant that it looks like it was printed on the card instead of stamped. Two super fun cards!
