Life is a Matter of Moments

What a great saying, " Life is a matter of moments" ! this comes from a wonderful stamp set called Elements of Style. Another favorite of mine from the Summer Mini Catalog.

I used the new Smooch Spritz on this card,actually I used two. The Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz is spritzed all over the butterfly. The Log Cabin Smooch Spritz was spritzed on the base of the card.

Aloha Bear

This bear looks as if he has been to Hawaii.
I couldn't resist using the Button Latte Designer Buttons along with some Linen Thread to create this bears bikini top. A grass skirt created with scissors and a piece of Old Olive card stock.

He is so sticking cute.  To complete this card I used the palm tree from the Tropical Party stamp set, Island Oasis Designer Series Paper and letters from the Rough Type stamp set.

Happy Everything to you!

Here is a recent project I took to a Shoe Box Swap.

I just love this Tropical Party stamp set. It is tied at my favorite for the new Summer Mini Catalog. Contact me at ginadygert@yahoo.com today to receive your own copy of this catalog.
I just wanted to show you how I popped out the coconut with Stampin' dimensionals. This adds depth and extra cuteness.
The words Happy Everything to You come from On a Pedestal Stamp Set.

Original Bear

What an original! He is just so fresh and inventive!

I can't help but want to put him all over everything. This card features a plaid technique crafted by using the Brayer and several inks. What a great look for a masculine card.

Swish You a Happy Birthday

This bear is awesome! You really can do just about any type of card using him.

If you don't all ready own it , the stamp set is called Under the Stars.

I highly recommend the stamp set! It has been so much fun playing with it. Pair it with the different stamp sets that I own.


Here is another card.
I love the words on the Front cover.  

"SWISH you a Happy Birthday". 

Thought of if purely by accident. 

I was cutting out the word SWISH and 

realized it looks like wish... and what do you say for someone's birthday but I wish you a Happy Birthday. So I just had to do it.

The basketball net was stamped Vellum card stock. This allows for you to see the basketball in the hoop.

Birthday Card Contest

Here is another card using that adorable bear from Under the Stars stamp set.

This time I paired it up with the Crazy for Cupcakes stamp set.

The colors on this card are great. Totally inspired by the Thoroughly Modern Designer Series Paper.

Don't forget the Cupcake Wheel on the Base of the card.


I just love how he just pops out from the cupcake.

This reminds me I wanted to tell you about my Birthday card contest. Click here to find out more. This contest is open to all.
