Way to Go Ellen!

This is a large card (6 3/4" x 5 1/2") that I made for my daughter this week after learning that she was voted Student of the Month at her middle school. I wanted to make something a bit fun and funky, and I think it came out pretty well. The background papers are all from the retired Polka Dots and Paisleys Designer Series Papers. The "way" is stamped with Short Order Alphabet in Versamark and embossed with white on Tempting Turquoise, and then punched out with the My Way Jumbo punch. The "2" is chipboard glittered with the Two way glue pen and Dazzling Diamonds, and the "GO" is die cut with the Serif Essentials dies and the Stampin' Up! Big Shot machine.

Happy Stamping!

Christmas Spread in Real Red and Old Olive

I finished my Christmas spread in record time this year, due to my first scrapbook club meeting on January 6th. Gotta love those deadlines for pushing me into action! LOL!

This year I did a really simple page using Real Red as my base, with a strip of Old Olive Textured card stock at the bottom and a strip of striped paper from the (now retired) Dashing Designer Series papers. I did stamp "Celebrate" repeatedly in Real Red down both outer sides of each page, but it doesn't show up in the photo. I also stamped the "Celebrate" from
Celebrate Everything in Old Olive on the Old Olive Textured card stock. I used a few piece of Pewter hardware from the Hodgepodge Hardware set that I brightened up using a sanding block on both pages. The "Wii" W is from the Big Deal Alphabet and the i's are from Short Order Alphabet. "Love" and "Christmas" are both from
Fundamental Phrases.

Carved & Candlelit Boo

October already... time for stamping those ghosts and goblins!

This simple card uses Carved & Candlelit, All in a Row and the Big Deal Alphabet. The base card is Kraft, with Basic Black and Always Artichoke layers on top. The inks are Pumpkin Pie, Always Artichoke and Basic Black. A bit of linen thread added to the stem finishes it off.

Happy Stamping!
