Groovy, baby! The vases for this retro style card were quick and easy to crop using the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Ornaments Framelits Dies. I simply cropped the bottoms and voil?!

Wow..so creative! I love your cleverness!
You are amazing!!!!
I love it when you make clean, crisp and simple designs like that. Thanks for sharing. The heart on the birthday wishes and the buttons make a whole difference on the result.

Enabler, Enabler, Enabler!! Thanks Mary. Love your use of this set!!! I was born in late 60’s but a lot of my friends think I should have grown up in them. Question though… do you have paper punched out and under the buttons?? It appears that you do, and I really like that!!
I really love this bright, clean, groovy design with the creative use of the ornament framelits!
What a great idea Mary! Making vases out of ornaments? Never would have thought of that.
What a great idea! Thanks!
When I saw yesterday’s sneak peak, I thought it was a Christmas card with ornaments and I didn’t like the like the blue & green for a Christmas card. Surprise, surprise, it’s a vase, and I love the colors. TFS!
Hi Sarah: You CAN use the ornament punch and get a look similar to the lower vase. Hugs, Mary
VERY groovy and colorful, too!
Mary, I love this card! So Pretty! Could you use the ornament punch and get the same look?
Doesn’t it make your heart sing when you discover something totally new from something old (not really old, but you know what I mean)? Fabulous idea, thanks for sharing.
I’ve ordered the bundle already, so seeing this expression is icing on the cake. TFS
I was debating about getting this bundle simply because of the price, but now I have to! I love that you saw thru the ornaments and made them into vases, you are so clever! I also love the comment about hot air balloons and the cupcake builder punch. Now this is a must have and will go on my next order. Enabler! : )
OMG! You come up with some of the “best” ideas. Thanks for always thinking outside the box…or in this case…framelits 🙂
DID anyone notice the possible Summer Smooches tie in ? yay Mary !
I think a couple of them look like hot air balloons and use your cupcake punch for the clouds and the bottom of the balloon …Fun !
