Using two designs from the 6x6 paper from the kit, I cut a 5.25 x 1 inch piece of the bow-tie design, and a 4.25 x 3.25 piece from the balloon design. I matted the balloons to a 4.25 x 3.5 piece of blue card stock from the kit. I used the same blue card stock cut 5.25 x 4 inches and adhered to the white card base. I then adhered the bow-tie strip to the right side of the card front. I popped up the matte piece with the balloons with foam tape before attaching to the right front. To finish off the card, I found some enamel hearts in my stash and scattered some across the front.
Posting cards I've made, and my attempts from the classes I've taken to improve my card-making skills. Some turn out well, some don't, but I learn something from all of them!

SSS September Card Kit: Celebrate Birthday
I've made another card from the SSS September Card Kit, using another of the acetate sheets.
Cutting one of the 6x6 sheets included in the kit down to 5x3.75, I adhered it at an angle on my white card base. I then adhered the acetate sheet on top at a different angle, by running my tape runner just on the corners of the sheet. The tape doesn't appear to be noticeable, unless you know it is there and and are really looking for it.
To finish the card off, I stamped the let's celebrate from the SSS Birthday Bits stamp set included with the kit in Tuxedo Black Momento ink, and added several sequins to add a little bling.
The photo doesn't show the colors of the sequins very well--there are aqua, mustard, pink, and orange sequins scattered across the card front.
I think I'm going to continue making cards from this kit over the next few days, to see how many different ones I can come up with!

Another Scrap Card
Had a lot of smallish scraps of designer paper, and hated to waste them.
I think this card uses them pretty nicely!
