Kaisercraft stamps

I have purchased quite a few different Kaisercraft clear stamp set off Ebay lately and I have been looking for an excuse to try out the stamps. I choose "These days" stamp set as I really like the big corner rose. I stamped it onto white card stock and then layered it with red card stock . Stamped the rose stamp in the left hand corner with a Happy Birthday sentiment as well. Coloured the rose in with the Red colours in the Spectrum Noir Markers. 3 red pearls and a faux stitching border completed the front.

This is for a very special friend visiting in the UK at the moment.

Happy 40th Birthday

A friend of mine is turning the big 40 this week and I have made her a card for her birthday as well as a Birthday Calendar album. I came up with this idea from the Card Organizer tutorial at Splitcoaststampers but changed it to make it more of a notebook style album. My friend is always texting me asking if she has the right day for birthdays so I figured it would be the perfect present for her.

Here is the link for the tutorial at Splitcoaststampers:

and you will find the printable PDF file of the calendar months in the tutorial .

The roses are handmade from white cardstock, stamped with red brick tim holtz ink and a script stamp and then edged with the same colour ink. The background for the Birthday Calendar is also the same ink and script stamp.
