September Layout Swap

2011-07-23T15:26:00.002-05:00

Hey everyone. July's swap was fantastic. Everyone's layout was great. We are coming down to the wire with just two more swap to go. Now having said that everyone understands that I am assigning the last two layout because the choices are limited. We are also trying something new. Instead of theme to inspire the layout we are using a single word. Create a layout based on what the word inspires in you. Once you have created your layout write a short explanation on how is inspired you. I can't wait to see what everyone designs.

Gina's inspirational word Sunshine created by Anne
Joane's inspirational word Paws created by Donetta
Donetta's inspirational word Angels created by Gina
Anne's inspirational word Boogerhead created by Jo Ann
Renee's inspirational word Pumpkins created by Joane
Jo Ann's inspirational word Friends created by Renee

Please remember that these words are not the theme of the layout but to provide inspiration. Let me know if you need more clarification.

PVSG
Oh my! This month's meeting was small, but it was fun. I think everyone got a little something done. I think this meeting really what I had always envisioned the meeting would be like. Gina was working on getting some "Thank You" cards done. She wasn't quite able to get her mojo juiced up. Linda and I offerred up ideas, suggestions, and opinions to help. It really was a collaborative effort. In the end, I think the card came out wonderfully. I will try and get a copy of the final design and post it.

Card Challenge - SplitCoast Stampers SC234

2009-06-25T09:13:00.004-05:00

I haven't posted this to SCS, yet. I was killing 2 birds with one stone. I going to using this card for my PVSG Card Swap. The theme for the month is Sympathy/Get Well. I realize you can't see much of the "brown", but it is the new SU! In-Color Soft Suede.

What do you think?

Fall ATC Swap Group 2

2009-06-19T12:49:00.004-05:00

I just had so much fun doing these.

October - I stamped/embossed the eyes on the purple paper and used bleach to get the whites of the eyes white. The little ghosts are from a Creative Memories punch.

November - Some of you SU! folks you may recognize the birds tail feathers. Yes I used Pick a Petal stamp set. I cased it from SCS. I just love the whimsical look of him.

December - This is a favorite technique I use often. Stamp an image on card stock. Run the image through a sticker machine (I use a Xyron) wrong side DOWN. You want the sticky stuff to be on the image. (You can also use a tape runner) Cover with glitter and remove the excess. You get that frosty look.

Christmas Card Swap

2009-06-19T09:56:00.005-05:00

Here is another Christmas Card for the swap I'm hosting. It is for June. It is an angel card for one in the group. Using my stickles I added red "berries" after the photo was taken. I even did some embossing on the inside using my new brass plate (thanks Karel). I cased the basic card from someone (can't remember who) one SCS. I just love the simplicity of it.

Black and White Inchies, Twinchies, & Trinchies (ITTs)

2009-06-16T09:34:00.003-05:00

Yea!!! I finished the Black & White ITTs swap.

Here is my inchies. Sorry about the picture quality. Photography isn't my forte'.

Here is my twinchies. I don't know why but I also seem to be cutting something by hand; like these butterfly. I cut 30 of them.

And finally my trinchies. Again with the cutting, except this time I had to cut 90 of these flowers. Not to mention that I also had to paint them before cutting.

Let me know what you think.

Simply Scrappin' Kit - Sweet Nothings

2009-06-08T09:17:00.003-05:00

Here are 5 pages that I made using Stampin' Up!'s Simply Scrappin' Kit Sweet Nothings. Everything used on each page came from the kit except the flower brads and the fleurettes. I didn't embellished these pages as I normally would, but my goal was to use only what was in the kit. After finishing these pages I still had alot of stickers left, so I could embellish them more if I wanted.

May is just killing my free time to play. I'm so busy getting my DD's birthday party together, making birthday cards for 4 other people, and not to mention Mother's Day. I just don't get time to do the fun stuff and just create!! So I killed two birds with one stone. This first birthday card is for a friend of my DD; who will also be 5 years old. I don't normally give the recipe on my blog, but I'm so happy with how the card turned out that I have to share. I used SU! retired Kid Cards Stamp set; SU! Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip CS and retired DSP Berry Bliss; SU! Pretty in Pink ribbon; SU! Chocolate Chip and Pretty in Pink Ink; Cuttlebug embossing folder; and Tattered Angel Glimmer Mist Coffee Shop and Pink Bubblegum.

It is only available until June 30th. It is listed in the Occasions Mini Catalog. I used SU! retired Wonderful Words and Baroque Motifs Stamp set, white CS, SU! DSP Walk in the Park, and SU!

Technique Corner Add to PVSG Meetings

2009-03-18T15:33:00.002-05:00

Because everyone seemed to enjoy the sharing at the last meeting and after some discussion with Gina; we thought that it would be nice to alot about 15 minutes during each meeting to sharing a technique. This time of sharing is open for anyone to lead. If you have a technique that others have expressed an interest in learning, just let me know and I will put it on the schedule.

Do any one have a suggestion for the next meeting? Leave me a comment.
