Hello DeNami friends, Lisa E. here today sharing an easy masculine tag. This would be great for Father's Day (a day or two late, or maybe next year!) even a birthday!

First I added a piece of decorative paper to the tag. Next I cut a strip of Orange Stripes Washi Tape  length wise. I didn't cut it in the center, I wanted one strip to be wider than the other. These were added at the top and bottom of the decorative paper. The To: From: sentiment was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.


After die cutting a piece of adhesive cork, it was stamped with the Small Dot Square Frame then affixed to the tag. I stamped colored and punched out the Fishing Chickie then added him to the cork piece with foam tape. Using a regular hand hole punch, I punched three cork dots to add to the tag. And finally a length of twine was looped through the top opening.


We're happy you could stop by today. Please join us tomorrow for an Inspired By post!

Hi DeNami Friends!
It's Tammy, and it's my turn to share a card with you today. It's a little Patriotic number.


 

Hello DeNami friends! It’s Deb here and I have a CAS but bright card to share with you today. I used only 2 stamps but sometimes I think that is all you need.
I inked up Large Butterfly in Tuxedo Black Memento ink off centered twice and then colored them in with copics. I opted not to color in the butterfly border or body because I really like how the colors stood out. Then I selectively inked up Hello Friend and trimmed them out. I ran a few stitches with my sewing machine through each sentiment to attach them to the card front.  

I hope you have been able to visit this month’s blog hop participants. It’s the last one until the fall. You still have time to comment and be eligible to win.  

Have a great week!

Hi there, DeNami friends, and Happy May 1st! It's Emily here today on the DeNami blog. It's my turn to share a new  project with you. Now that May has arrived, Mother's Day is right around the corner. So I thought I'd share a little Mother's Day inspiration with this colorful card created with only 2 stamps.




I seem to be on a roll these days with pairing up pink and orange! This card features the beautifully scripted Mom stamped in Vintage Sepia Versafine and is accented with one of the sweet little butterflies in the Decorative Butterflies stamp set stamped in Habanero Versafine. That huge orange flower embellishment is one that I made myself from used dryer sheets. So easy! I just colored the sheets with an orange Copic marker. To finish off my card, I added some freeform machine stitching as a frame for this design.

That's all for me today. Thanks for visiting the DeNami Design blog!

Greetings, DeNami friends! It's Emily here today with the April edition of my monthly Embossed Elements feature here on the DeNami blog. Today I'm gearing up for graduation season with two different cards using fun embossing folders from the DeNami store.

My first project features the oh-so-festive Graduation Hat Embossing Folder.  I used it (along with Congratulations Circle and the diploma and mortarboard stamps from the cling Graduation Set) to make a congratulatory card for the new graduate.


I chose the colors of my daughter's high school (including some fabulous DeNami Leaf Green cardstock for the embossed panel and the paper-pieced mortarboard) for this creation and went with a design that really shows off that awesome embossed sea of graduation caps. Doesn't it look like a crowd of grads has just tossed their mortarboards into the air at the end of the commencement ceremony? That image always makes me smile :). Not only is this embossing folder super for graduation cards, but it would also be perfect for making graduation invitations or graduation thank you notes.

I don't find myself needing graduation cards all that often (although as my kids progress further through school, I imagine that will begin to change!), so I was reluctant at first to invest in purely graduation-themed products. Just in case you find yourself in a similar situation, I wanted to show you another option for a fun graduation card using non-graduation-specific products. This project features the Bunting Embossing Folder.

After embossing my white card base with the Bunting EF, I embossed several scraps of patterned paper (once again choosing a color scheme inspired by my daughter's high school) and then paper-pieced each of the pennants. I love how it turned out! I completed my clean and simple design with a loopy bow tied in baker's twine from the Spring Twine 3-pack and a stamped Small Congratulations sentiment.

I love the festive look that the embossed pennant banner gives this congratulations card. It's so easy to personalize the bunting with the recipient's school colors. But I can also think of all kinds of other occasions--not just graduations!--that this embossing folder would be perfect for: birthday, baby, weddings, anniversaries, Independence Day, New Year's, . . . the list could go on and on!!

Thanks for taking a peek at my embossed graduation projects today. I hope I was able to inspire you.  Please hop on over to my blog, My Little Slice of Bliss, and leave a comment there for a chance to win your very own Graduation Hat Embossing Folder. I have one up for grabs! Commenting will be open until midnight on April 30, 2014.

Howdy DeNami fans! Lisa E. here today and I'm shakin' things up in the west! As you all know our sweet Paulina has the prettiest sequins in her Pretty Pink Posh store.
