Today I’ve got a bunch of cards that I made with the Swinging Center Fun Fold. I had so much fun with this fold that I just had to try it with other papers and stamp sets.

This first card uses the Wildlife Wonder stamp set and Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper. This paper pack is HUGE! It has a 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 designs. Today only it’s on sale for $24/ normally $30.

I used the same image on the inside of the card. The only ink I used was Pecan Pie, and matching Pecan Pie matte. I’m entering this card in the Seize the Birthday Challenge with a theme of using Neutral Colors for a birthday card.

This card used the Gone Fishing stamp set and Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper. (On Sale today for only $10/ regular $12.50). I thought that this pattern felt like moving water when turned this direction.

The fish was super easy to color. The outline is stamped with Tuxedo Black and then the two-step fill in stamp is done with Smoky Slate. I used a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker to color the fins. (sets of 10 markers are on sale today for $29.75/normally $35) Calypso Coral is in the Subtles pack.

For the inside I didn’t add any coloring, just stamped everything in Pecan Pie ink. I know it’s early for Father’s Day, but this paper just spoke to me, lol, my dad has been gone for years but some of my fondest memories of him are the times we went brook trout fishing together.

This card is similar the one above but I used the bobber and added in some Real Red ink.

Retirement is definitely a GOOD THING!

This card uses another paper pattern from the Earthen Elegance DSP combined with the Darling Details stamp set. This was a card that we made in the Creative Cards Class. Lots of stamping on this one.

The inside was left blank. It was pretty crazy with a full class and only one stamp set so I’m thankful that I didn’t design any stamping on the inside for this card, lol.

I had to do a silly card! This card uses the Zany Zoo stamp set and Bright & Beautiful DSP (also on sale today for $10/regular $12.50 but it says low inventory so hurry and order if you want it!)

My silly turtle is colored with Stampin’ Blend Markers (also on Sale today $8.50 per set of 2 instead of $10). I used the colors from the paper Azure Afternoon, Lost Lagoon, Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia.

Simple Tuxedo Black greeting and music notes on the inside.

Here I’ve combined another pattern of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP with the humorous Supremely Awesome stamp set for a fun love, or Valentine card. I went simple with no coloring. For the inside, I inked the pizza slices with Smoky Slate and stamped off on my grid paper before stamping over the greeting.

Too Much? If so, I’m sorry, but I had so much fun making these cards that I just HAD to share them with you.
