Jeani’s Birthday Card

One of my coworkers celebrated a milestone birthday today.  She is  totally devoted to our school kids and is loved by all.  I created this special card for her day.

 

Lots of Big Shot items used on this card – Circles, Stars, and Large Number framelits and the Stars embossing folder.  The balloon punch and silver thread (sorry, not visible in this photo) were also used.  Our school colors are red and blue so that dictated my color combo.

Hope it was a fabulous day, Jeani!

You could easily change this up for an anniversary card, graduation card, retirement card, or even a sports team-themed card.

Going Places-Big Dipper

Another great stamp from the Going Places stamp set is the Big Dipper image.  Make sure when you are embossing this one to use the Embossing Buddy!

In the background I adhered white punched-out stars onto Basic Black card stock, and then I ran it through the Big Shot with the Stars folder.  The little stars in the foreground are pieces from the Metallics Sequins assortment attached with Mini Brads.  I used the Banner framelits for the Big Dipper image.

Stellar Congratulations Card

This week I made a congratulations card for one of my coworkers.  He is a very positive, upbeat teacher, and whenever asked how he is, the usual response is “STELLAR” – so I knew if I made a card for him, stars would have to be front and foremost.

I used the Stars framelits and the Stars embossing folder with the Fabulous Four stamp set.  The color scheme matches our school colors, but would also be perfect for a patriotic or masculine-themed card.
