Hi Stampers,

Happy Friday friends! 

Today is our First Friday’s Glitter Queens Blog Hop.

I’m so excited you are visiting all of us today .

The Theme for the month of August is

(2) Project ‘s with  Designer Paper .

Glitter Queens are using different designer paper too.

I’m  so excited to see what  all the Glitter Queens make with their

 choice of designer paper that they picked for this month’s Blog Hop theme.

I picked the

Whole Lot of Lovely designer paper # 144110.

I decided to make the Double Gate Fold card which is amazing .

I have  a video posted HERE 

 check  out  that video how to make this type of card .

This designer paper is so fun and festive  for all occasions.

Here is the 1st “Gate” doors that open to reveal this  adorable greeting ..

. Thinking of you .

By the way the stamp set is called

Lots of Love

(c)#143802

The  whole beautiful  suite can be found on page 87 in the Annual catalog.

How appropriate  that this beautiful stamp set coordinates  with the

 name of the designer paper too huh?

Pretty cleaver I must say LOL!

  Here is the card totally opened up .

Isn’t so pretty .

I hand cut out the pretty flowers from the designer paper .

Plus did you notice I made a matching envelope too?

( pretty cute huh?)  .

The video  link  posted above has both the double gate fold card with the envelope.

both are  super easy to make .

Any choice of our fabulous designer paper will be perfect for this type of card 

since you get to see both sides of the

gorgeous designer paper .

if you’re like me  deciding  sometimes what side to  use is always

so hard when both sides are beautiful.

This card  lets both  sides show off and  be in the lime light ~together .

Here is my  2nd  project  using the same  beautiful designer paper.

This time I made a card using the

This Little Piggy stamp set

(w)#143919

(c)#143922

such an adorable stamp set 

one of my top (5) favorites  from the Annual catalog.

I water colored the piggy  with my

Aqua Painter#103954

 with Powder Pink classic ink#144084 the Strips along the side is the

Whole Lot of Lovely designer paper #144110 which is the designer paper I’m

showcasing today  for our blog hop .

The  Powder Pink  

1/2″ Finely Woven ribbon # 144134  was used along the side.

Check out the  super cute inside …

This card seriously makes me giggle .

Sometimes the inside looks just as  awesome as the front LOL!

I stamped another pig from the stamp set and this time

 I covered the Hogs & Kisses  with

“Happy Birthday”

 and  the opposite side  I stamp another ( funny) greeting on the right side 

both of those  are from

Five for All stamp set

(c)# 143784
