My penny spinner card


Well yesterday I was watching videos on "stampin with Tami.com and saw this card. Well this is my version because the humming bird is too small for the penny so I made a dime/penny one.
I used the new stamp set from the Summer mini( don't remember the name)

Methods


The first is called "spot lighting". you stamp your image 2 times. I did mine on whisper white and then on old olive.
Then I used Stampin' up's 1/2 inch circle punch (104390) to punch out my image from the old olive. I used my Stampin' Up glue pen (100425) and glued the circles in the whisper white image.
It takes a bit of lining up but it turned out great. (another idea from Dawn G).
the other is a gift card sleeve. Dawn used a different punch. I didn't have the same punch so I used my scalloped punch (109043). I also used my tiny tag punch to make the "friends tag (?#)

Mojo Monday second week


I tried mojo monday last week and this is what I came up with. I hope you like it.

Phil's Birthday


Today (June 4th) is Phil's Birthday Here is the card I made for him.
It is Stampin' Up's "Bugs and Kisses" (116580). I think it turned out good!!!!

Cheers to you




Well it has been a busy few weeks and I am behind on my blog. I have a few projects to put up.
This is Stampin' up's "cheers to you" (114944).This is a great stamp set for all of you that like cool summer drinks.(with or without the alcohol) I got the general idea from Dawn G's site (see links)
It is a "3 way" card.. It is kind of like that toy some of us "old" people had when we were younger and batteries had not been invented yet (LOL) You turned it one way and it would flip(water fall )down. So you open the card one way and you get pictures, open it another way and you get different pics and close it and open the middle and there are different pics in the middle. Hard to explain but it is a cool card and easy to make.
I think Dawn calls it a" secret card".

Mojo Monday My first


My sister Martha Stewart( NOT that Martha) told me I should do the Mojo Monday card.
Being this is my first, I spent 2 hours getting it right just to pull the flowers off and start again.
Well here is what I did. I know it is plain but for my first attempt....not too bad. Do you know how hard it is to cut 1/8 inch strips to make thread when you don't own any??? And do you like the button....I made that too......

quilter's Bargello


I got my first Stampin' Success yesterday.... I found the Bargello Page and being a quilter I took up the challenge. I know the one in Stampin' Success is a smaller scale but a quilter needs more color. Hope you like it.
