Many Thanks

Hi!  Joy here, posting a thanks card using products from Classy Cards 'n Such.

I'm still writing a few thank you notes for goodies sent to me at Christmas.  


Here is one that uses some scraps of my favorite 6.5 x 6.5 paper pad called The Lake House 6.5" x 6.5" paper pad by Kaisercraft.

The filigree corner is from Decorative Blossom Corner by Heartfelt Creations. This is the smaller one in the set.

The sentiment is from an Impressive Obsession stamp set called Thanks Sentiments.

This was an easy card to put together.  I cut strips of paper measuring about 1 inch, lined them up, making sure that my sentiment would be on one with a light background.

Cutting the filigree corner was so easy when wax paper was put between the paper and the die before running thru my Vagabond. These were placed on a black mat and then placed on my folded white cardstock.

I appreciate you looking at my card. Have a HAPPY stamping day!


What a lovely thank you card! Thanks Joy!

Creamy Goodness

Hello Friends! Diane here with you today on the Classy Cards 'n Such blog.

Today I have a gorgeous card showing you how well all the dies from various companies work together.

I started my card base by cutting a frame from Marianne Creatable Die Anja's Large Oval. I scored my cardstock, folded it in half, and overlapped the die, so as not to cut
entirely through the fold side, allowing the card to be one piece.  I cut a second single Large Oval and covered the card front with it, giving me a complete die cut. It's a wonderful and easy way to create a shaped card!

Using another die from the same set of Marianne Creatable Die Anja's Large Oval, I made the next, intricate, beautiful layer, which has been slightly popped up using Joy! Foam pads small.

The next layer was created using the Cheery Lynn Designs Lattice Hearts and Vines die. It too, was popped up by cutting the small Joy! Foam pads  in half.  On top of the heart, I placed the word Love.

To finish my card, I added three rolled roses using a Memory Box Pinwheel Posie die. I added a bit of Mercury Glass Stickles to my flower petals.

I think this would be a beautiful card for an anniversary, wedding, or Valentine's Day!!


Quite a beautiful card! Thanks Diane!

Blooms of Pink

Hi, it's Misti today!
I want to share with you the card that I made for Classy Cards 'n Such Think Pink Challenge. 


For my card today, I stamped the main flower image from Always Blooming stamp set from Flourishes. I colored in the image with Worn Lipstick and Peeled Paint Tim Holtz Distress Ink Markers and the Tim Holtz Water Brush. I set it aside to dry.

I grabbed the  Simple Stories Vintage Bliss 6" x 6" paper pad and used the small pink floral paper for the background.  I found a green cardstock in my scrapbox that matched the peeled paint marker.

I used some White Cluny lace in between the background paper panels and the image panels.

Once I taped down the image panel, I used some Buttercup from the Twinkling H2O's - Springtime on the center of the flowers. I'm not sure if you can see it in the picture, but in real life, it adds a nice shimmer to the card.

A few Baby White Pearls in opposite corners finished this off.     

I hope you'll join us for the Think Pink challenge!


Your card is elegant and yet so simple! Thanks Misti!
