All occasion card with fun shoe paper, pink and aqua colour scheme and a fussy cut gift

This is my fourth card featuring this wonderful gift (Artful Stamper) which  stamped a while back when I was making this card.  I cut a large card and adhered this fun shoe paper to it.  Love those shoes!!  I created an embossed aqua strip of cardstock and a shimmery pink paper strip.  The pink strip was trimmed with scallop decorative scissors and paper pierced with a push pin in each scallop. I added a little length of pink ribbon to the aqua strip before adhering it to the pink one.  I tied another short length to it with a single knot to simulate a bow.  I adhered this embellishment to my card.  I watercoloured the fussy cut gift (Artful Stamper) to coordinate with my card.

All occasion card featuring a bright background, ribbon and a layered floral focal element

This card started with the little floral element which I punched from stationery.  I added another circle punchie that incorporated the colours of  the image and then added a purple scalloped circle (SU).  I found a piece of yellow cardstock on my desk which worked well with the flowers so I dug through my purple stash of scraps to see if I could find something that worked.  I found this colour printed decorative paper which worked really well.  I trimmed it to have a wide margin and adhered to the yellow layer then ran my pattern tracing wheel around all four edges to add some paper pierced texture.  I added a length of purple ribbon and adhered this large layer to my dark purple card front.  I used a push pin to pierce the scallops of my layered focal element and mounted it to my card using 3D foam tape.  A nice cheery card for any occasion!!  Therese
