SC168 Scallops!

Finally got my scallop punch! Had to use it on this card, also finally used the design paper I've had forever.



Stamps-

  • So Many Scallops
  • Everyday Flexible Phrases

Cardstock-

  • Very Vanilla
  • DP Spring Flowers

Ink-

  • Cameo Coral
  • Chocolate Chip

I used my new TH design ruler to paper pierce around the pieces of DP and then with a white gel pen made faux stitches. The scallop punched flower is on a piece of mounting adhesive so it pops off the card. The thanks was punched with the word window punch, then the ticket corner punch.

SC167, CC157 Heartfelt Easter

I really liked the card sketch this week. Also had a lot of fun scoring edges with my new Scor-pal.



Stamps-

  • Heartfelt Thanks
  • All Holidays

Cardstock-

  • Basic Black
  • Basic Gray
  • Rose Red

Ink-

  • Rose Red

Scored around the gray panels so they look like a frame, also scored the bottom on the front of the card. Used SU distressing tool on the circle and then edge flicked rose red on it. I cut the circle out using my CM cutting system. The flower outline was stamped with rose red and then used water color crayons and blender pens to color in.

SC166, CC156 Hoppy Easter

Made a couple of Easter cards, they're the same so only took one picture.



Stamps-
  • Tags & More

  • Tag Time

Cardstock-

  • Whisper White

  • Rose Red

  • So Saffron

Ink-

  • Glorious Green

  • Rose Red

  • So Saffron

I cuttlebug embossed the So Saffron panel. To help the image panel pop off the egg panel, I edged it with Rose Red. The Glorious Green ribbon is secured on the card by using my button hole punch and tying the ribbon on.

I just noticed that you can't tell that the green egg with the bunnies is mounted on a little piece of pop up foam. It looks neater in person.

Hawaii Scrapbook Pics

I scrapbooked our pictures from Hawaii. This is my first attempt at really scrapbooking. I didn't do any matting of pictures and really stuck to simple embellishments. They're in our book just like I loaded them up here.










Journaling! I need to get all caught up on scrapbooking so when I do pages what needs to be journaled is still fresh in my mind. I could have done a lot more journaling on these pages... but I couldn't remember where half of the pictures were even taken from! *hangs head*
