Razzle Berry Upsy Daisy

I made this card packet and birthday card for a gift, I was so pleased with the colors and the outcomes. The card holder is just a piece of 81/2"x11" cardstock scored and folded to fit the cards, I then punched holes on each side of the cards and wove the ribbon through to hold the cards in place, simple but effective. It holds 8 different cards and envelopes for all occasions. My inspiration was the colors in the DSP.

The inside of the card holder.

2 cards using the Razzle Dazzle stamp set and various SU punches

Two more cards with little stamping save for the sentiments. One has been stamped with Versamark for a tone-on-tone look.

Upsy Daisy, I tried the shadow effect, by lifting the stamp slightly and restamping without re-inking.

More Versamark and tone-on-tone,

Colors throughout are Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo and Crushed Curry. I love these together!

One thing I found out while doing this set....
SU Whisper White is FAR superior to other brands. I had some precut and scrap pieces that I used for all the cards but the one with the Melon Mambo Razzle Dazzle stamp, in the third picture, I couldn't get a solid image and was very frustrated with the results; I've since discarded all my scraps that are not SU Whisper White. May as well use the best and be happy with the results.

Thanks for looking.....have a great weekend!
