Be Happy!



A card I have made quickly as I wanted to try this colour combo of Stampin' Up! Brilliant Blue, Old Olive and Summer Sun. I rarely use the Brilliant Blue and I don't know why as I love shades of blue. I am inclined to like this combo though the old tale was that blue and green should never be seen! I have used three of the stamps from the Stampin' Up! Be Happy set and the letter is from the SU Headlines alphabet set.




And I am happy too as I have finished 24 double slider cards for the construction technique book swap. Now I just have to type and print out the instructions. Here I have used all Stampin' Up! supplies and the stamp sets Roses in Winter and Canvas. These are two very useful and popular sets. The Word Window punch is used in two ways on these cards too - the slits for the inserts to slide in and the little tab pull at the top.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments on the below cards - I really enjoy reading them all and also adding to my blog when I can.
