Some new cards.....

Here are a few cards to share with you. For the metallic background on this first card, I used aluminum foil wrapped cardstock and ran it through the cuttlebug diamond plate folder. This was this week's technique lover's challenge over at Splitcoaststampers. It's such an easy way to get a really cool metallic background! I added some glossy accents to the motorcycle and the harley saying on the flame paper.

This card uses some adorable cupcake stamps from Unity Stamp Co. Love these, they go so well with this cute doodlebug designs paper. This card is unique in that the blue candle punched piece with the stamped images attached folds open, leaving the white background as the inside of the card. I added stickles to the candles and the cupcakes to give it some bling.
On this card, I stamped the flowers onto the background paper and stamped the pocket onto the blue patterned paper. I popped the pocket using foam squares and added the stamped tag and ribbon to my card. This card uses some stamps from Unity's July Kit of the month.
Each month Unity offers a new kit for kit club members. You can sign up to become a member and also get the past kits of the month on their website. The kits consist of a whole sheet (8 1/2 x 11) of unmounted precut rubber stamps! It is a fabulous deal and always such a great variety of images.
Thanks for checking out my cards! Happy Stamping :)
