More Just Buzzin By cards

I recently joined a swap with some other SU! demonstrators to get additional samples using the Just Buzzin' By stamp set. These cards are awesome!
This first card was created by Monica Giberti - how can you not smile at those little bees?












This second card was created by Missi Hackman - she added a touch of dazzling diamonds to the bee's wings. Since diamonds are a girl's best friend - that must be a girl bee!
















The next card is by Barbara Jean Smith - she added Crystal Effects to the beehive in spots - makes it look like the honey is drippin'. Barbara's bee is also a girl - diamonds and all.












The last card for today's post was created by Julie Ramos. She was playing with her Big Shot! Julie used the Top Note, the Scallop Oval, and the Daisy #2 dies. Her dazzling diamonds landed on the flowers - no wonder those little girl bees like flowers.













Great job ladies! Thanks for sharing.

Anniversary card


Here is the anniversary card I made for my son and daughter-in-law. I really like the new SU! Manhattan Flower textured impressions die. I used my vellum paper in the impressions die. Hope they like it, when they get home from Jamaica!

Big Shot


I was playing with my Big Shot today. I used the SU! Sweetest Stem and the SU! Simple Flower embosslit dies. (That means they emboss and cut out at the same time) So this card doesn't have any stamping on it (gasp). I used Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, and Pink Pirouette cardstock along with Bella Rose Designer Series Paper. My scallop border punch was also used, along with some Rhindstone brads. Oh, and I opened my new package of satin ribbon (available in the Occasions mini catalog) - that has such an elegant feel!
Time to go get into some ink!

Just buzzin by

I wanted to share this card with you. This is one that I have completed for a group swap. I love this set and have seen so many great samples that use this set. For this card I used Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, and Real Rust cardstock. I also used my Circle Scissor Plus to cut out my circles and the Scallop circles #2 die cut, and the Eyelet Border punch.
