Just found one of the cards I made my Step Mum for Christmas that never got posted. I just love that Lace punch and there are so many ways to use and again I used my gorgeous Array Of Sunshine Hostess set.

Array of Sunshine for the Newlyweds
For the Newlyweds with Array of Sunshine. I did this card as a top folding one so I could emboss the lower section of the front using the Vintage Wallpaper folder. I then measured a Whisper White piece to fit the un-embossed part where I could then stamp the design. To over lap the flowers I stamped the middle one first then stamped it again on a Post it note. I used the cut out post it note flower to stick over the stamped one so i could stamp the other two flowers. I moved the Post it flower around so I could stamp the leaves.
Finally some inspiration
You will be pleased to know I havent been shaken beyond repair by all these aftershocks. Sadly I havent been able to make time to stamp either but i do have some cards I made for a present for my step mother for Christmas.
This one used a Hostess stamp set – Array of Sunshine – and a sentiment from Bring on the Cake. The colours are Blushing Bride, Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz.
Tomorrow I will show you the twin of this card I tried to use the same sketch for two cards.

Flower Double Fold Cascade Card for Mum
Yesterday was my Mum’s Birthday Im not going to tell you how old she is cos then you might work out how old I am!! But according to a form she received recently she was born in 1650 yes thats right I said 1650!!
Anyway I made her a floral version of the double fold cascade card we made at my last class using one of the new hostess sets ARRAY OF SUNSHINE which worked beautifully although it did mean an awful lot of fussy hand cutting. She is worth it though, My Mum.
Here is a view from the top
What I used:
Stamp Sets: Array of Sunshine (Hostess) Create a Cupcake (for the sentiment)
Ink Colours: Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz, Concord Crush and So Saffron.
DSP: The Green spot DSP – Just Add Cake pack and the Concord Crush one is from a retired hostess pack.
Tools: Scallop Trim Border Punch, Dimensionals, Decorative Label Punch
I have managed to size this card so it fits in a standard C6 envelope. I have quite a few birthdays coming up, funny how they all come at once!
