These are my final two layouts created as a member

wonderful team and her digital scrapbook kits.

next years design team spots, woohoo!

I also used Connie's Blends Volume 1 template for the above layout.

It made that faded image of the roses easy.

I also used add ons to the basic kit:

messy papers and quoted.

Another Sympathy Card For A Dog

Another one of my long time email "pen pals"

 lost one of her fur babies recently.

I've had to make too many sympathy cards

this year, for both people and pets :(

Supplies:

Cuttlebug embossing folder

metal edge tag

paper punches to create the paw print

polka dot grosgrain ribbon

white, textured black and red card stocks

Thanks for looking 

 

18th Birthday Balloons Card

There are 18 paper punched balloons on this card

(not as many hand drawn strings, though!)

for an 18th birthday. 

The rubber stamp image is from Stampin' Up!

The paper punch is unknown. It is an oldie

I think I found at a dollar store and has no markings.

Twine from Target, papers from an old Die Cuts With A View

paper stack, hand cut banner. 

Thanks for looking =)

My Memories

I used one of Connie's fun Overlay Play templates for this layout.

Travelogue South Dakota Digi Kit

The newest Travelogue collection by Connie Prince is

South Dakota! 

I've not been there personally, yet, but this kit 

can be used to scrap other things.

There are some neat motorcycle images in it.

It can also be combined with any of her

other Travelogue kits, the colors all coordinate :)

I used the Rt 66 sign from the Travelogue Oklahoma kit

on this page, but everything else is in the South Dakota kit.

54th Anniversary Card

This card is very similar to one I made last year, 

which was a near copy of a sample in the catalog.

Most supplies were from Stampin' Up!,

some of which are no longer available;

Stamp sets:

Wonderful Romance

Banners For You

Farmhouse Roses Birthday Card

This card came together fairly quickly using one of my favorite stamp sets,

 Roses In Winter. I also added a few speckles from Itty Bitty backgrounds. 

I stamped the background then ran it through a woodgrain embossing folder.

I lightly rubbed Sahara Sand ink pad across some of raised areas.

I lightly water colored the grooves between the planks

(after I took the photos).

I glued a die cut Happy Birthday to the top, mounted it all to a card base,

added a matching stamped inside piece and done! 

Thanks for looking , have a good day =)

Chalk Painted Jar of Flowers Card

I was trying to create the look of a chalk painted

mason jar "flower vase" for this special card

for a very special someone.

It was an experiment that didn't turn out half bad!

I heat embossed a jar image onto chipboard.

I chose to use chipboard since I was going to 

be painting it. It was tricky to cut out with scissors!

I heat embossed "happy birthday" in two

portions to stack the words on top of each other.

I wanted it to resemble to logos on masons.

I brushed on chalk paint, lightly rubbing

it from the embossing. I was trying to make it

look like the chalk painted mason jars that were so popular.

Numerous flowers were stamped, water colored and hand cut 

with scissors. They all have dimensionals behind them.

 

I tucked in some small die cut greenery and leaves. 

Twine is wrapped around the mouth of the jar.

It is held in place on back with tape and 

a bit of clear drying glue around the knot.

It's all mounted over a background that has had

Distress Oxide ink sponged onto it. 

Brighter than I intended, but it was the only 

blue I have in that type of ink. 

inside

There is a lot of dimension on this card!

It will be hand delivered,

but would require extra postage if it was mailed.

CAS 50th Birthday Card

 

It's World Cardmaking Day !

I plan on experimenting with an idea I have

for a special card I want to make.

If all goes well, I'll post it next weekend ;)

In the meantime, I'm sharing 

this pretty simple card I made recently.

I wasn't thrilled with it (it needed more!),

but I was in a hurry to get a "flat" card done

and out in the mailbox before our postman arrived.

Supplies:

embossed white core Pink card stock, lightly sanded

(Cuttlebug)

die cut and stamped pieces

(Stampin' Up!)

sequin accents

Thanks for looking =)
