I used this sketch and color combo for card one.
All Papertrey Ink product… but the sequins.
I use this combo for this card below.
Stamps : my most fun stamp ever to use (now) Stitches and Swirls and Solid Stitches and Swirls.
I am so excited to see so many friends that I know win prizes Congrats! Thanks for stopping by.
darn PTI wanted a photo of us holding our card…
Three beautiful cards. I love how you did the birthday die on the angle using multiple colors.
ReplyDeleteThe Stitches & Swirls looks so fabulous with the gold embossed stitches- just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAll your cards look so Classy and colorful!!

And the angled happy birthday card is just FAB! Absolutely love the sequins, the angle and the offset style of 'happy'!!
Very inspiring!

ps. I like your picture too! I can soooo relate to how you must have felt when you took this picture, ha, ha I was thinking the same thing when Marianne of Marianne Design asked me for a photo to have it published in her book along with some cards I made for her, ha, ha.
I wasn't too pleased with that either! I love staying anonymous as long as I possibly can!!! :-)
Beautiful photo Marybeth! You are just so pretty. I love your cards too, just gorgeous! I love your stitched card...once again you have sold me on this set. Your Happy Birthday is so fun too and love all the sequins!

Your stitches and swirls card is just beautiful with that embossing on it!! You also placed your sequins in the perfect place. That is also a cool idea to overlap the birthday die in rainbow colors! I know how you feel about the picture, I felt the same way! You look beautiful!!

Gorgeous gorgeous cards Marybeth, oh I want that Stitches & Swirls now. Beautiful picture of you too!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards. I'm with all the comments about how well you use the stitches and Swirls set! Really a stand alone set. But what you do with dies is amazing. Classic elegance always. You're beautiful! Funny, I was saying the same thing about having my pix posted. But I think I used another 'D' word! In the end I chose a photo NOT looking at the camera.

As usual, Marybeth, I'm late to the comment party. So sorry. I know you'll understand when I tell you I've been making little vallies for the grandkids. Fantastic cards. Simply adore the Stitches & Swirls card. That is one of the most amazingly beautiful cards I've ever seen. You are such an inspiration. Love the bright birthday card too. Great colors. I hope you don't mind if I pin the S&S one...Bev
ReplyDeleteJust BEAUTIFUL, Marybeth and I LOVE the photo of YOU!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth so lovely to see your beautiful smiling face with your pretty card! I have had no crafty time as we finally got snow in Seattle and when it snows we play!!!! I will have to post some pictures! Of course it rained today and melted it all except the giant snowman which may last 1 more day if we are lucky! Lol!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are gorgeous! Love the gold embossing!!! So fun to see what everyone is making!!!! Hugs!!!
the cards are almost as beautiful as you :-)
ReplyDelete(we are always so bad about having our pictures taken.... and there's no need to be like that - YOU my dear are gorgeous - inside AND out!)
now stop using that Solid Stitches and Swirls cos you're enabling me (i've got the Stitches and swirls and almost bought the Solid version last month but I resisted.... now I'm seeing resistance is futile ;-))
Oh, Marybeth! Your stitches and swirls card is my favorite. Yes, I think my favorite of yours ever. It's gorgeous! And I chuckled when I read your comment after your photo. I'm actually happy to see your smiling face. :) But I do understand...I didn't feel to bad when I saw this was one of the challenges I had missed...no crafting for me for several days now...too many people in need of help these days. It makes me very aware of my blessings. Oh dear, this is long enough now I should have just sent you an email. :) Hope you are well, my friend.
ReplyDeleteYou're gorgeous Marybeth - so California girl! I love your pretty cards - lots of color in the flowers and the die cut corners - but mostly seeing your smiling face. You made my day!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards n gorgeous you!! I love the embossed stitched outlines n the multi colored layered birthday sentiment :)
ReplyDeleteYour Stitches & Swirls card is over the top gorgeous, Marybeth!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards, i love the colours and the elegant designs, just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photo of you, Marybeth!! And I love how you have the word dies going off the corner of your card. Awesome design!!
