TGIF! Friday is here!

The days and weeks seem to go by oh so fast, hard to believe it is Friday already.  I hope you had a great week, with some great plans for the weekend!

I designed this project for a great group of ladies who I call my friends.  Making the crumpled background is a bit touchy with me, I tried to distress it by using the ink pad directly to the paper.  The dragon fly is from a retired Stampin' Up! stamp set that I purchased from a friend when she moved.  Thanks for stopping by!

Thursday Post 'hump' day!

Hello again!  Thanks for stopping by today.

My wonderful friend Billie gave me a huge stack of 6x6 background/scrapbook paper, I love using the bold designs, Most of the colors are 'right up my alley' Purple of course is my favorite color.

The Thanks stamp is a retired Stampin' Up! stamp and the flower were punched with 2 different Stampin' Up! flower punches.  I like adding the extra touch with the word window punch and brads.  This card was part of  a larger Thank You project I completed for a church function.

Happy Thursday to you!

Hello again!  I hope this Wednesday October the 8th finds you well and happy.

I used my Simply Scored Scoring tool to create the grid back ground, then I randomly, (and I do have trouble with random stamping) stamped the swirly image in the squares.  I used the flower stamp stamping the image 3 times, then used coordinating scallop punches to punch out the layers.  I used a hand held punch to punch the 'eyelet' holes in the base layer so the brown would show through.

Thanks for stopping by!

It has been a long time

My how time passes, it has been a long time, a very long time since I added to my blog.  I am once again a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and I will strive to post cards and projects that I am currently working on or that we have made in my Monthly Workshops.

This card was made as a thank you project, and I just love the chicken image from Stampin' Up!  It is sadly a retired set called Funky Favorites.

Retired sets is one thing that I struggle with, the need to use current stamp sets in my workshops and the love of my retired stamp sets.

Thanks for stopping by for a look.  Happy Tuesday to you!

Funky Favorites Thank You card

Really like the big punch makes the background all by it self.  The bow is a paper pow that was cut with the big shot then glued into the shape.

hello, it;s for you!

Loved the old time phone, and the hello words written vertical are quite different.  Not sure what I used for the background, leaves maybe.

Jet

This is the airplane stamp from the masculine set I purchased.  A jumbo roller did the background and I embossed the purple strip with circles.  Makes me a bit dizzy!
