One Card Three colors


This is one set of the cards we made at "Just Cards Club" Monday night. These could be used for Graduations or baby or Birthdays! This lay out is right out of the SU Catalog, and I was inspired by it by Linda Heller from Stampingschool.com She brought to my attention and I used the layout and made it my own by changing it up a bit. The Scallop is the scallop circle die for the Big shot. The stamp set is the Ronald Mc Donald set a long with Garden Greetings, add some use of some punches and you could make lots of these in any color. Thanks for looking, and Hope you'll stamp something today!

A Sense of Time

Sense of Time Stamp set from our Occasions Mini Catalog. This was another card from Stamp Camp Saturday! Try to have a masculine card each month and this was my attempt. Some made this in to their Father's Day card. This clock is beautiful. Great for Scrap booking especially for heritage albums. To the Nines is the speciality card stock that is used. This is available until June 30th.. Never know if it will make the cut in to the new Catalog that will debut July 1st.

Brayered Die

This is the textured die for the Big shot. It dry embosses! just with a crank of the handle. This started as whisper white card stock. I brayered the die directly with So Saffron ink. Placed the White cardstock in the die and ran it through the big shot. WOW it's is like a Magic trick! I trimmed out the flower and it fits right on the front of the card. Added a greeting and some ribbon and what a beautiful quick and easy card. If you don't have a big shot contact me I'd love to show you all that it can do and how I feel I can't live without one! Thanks for Looking and Hope to see you soon at a stamping event soon. Remember to click on my web site on this site and view my calendar for stamping events you are welcome to attend.
