Acetate Card

One of the latest tutorials on splitcoaststampers.com is how to make a great acetate card, of course I had to give it a go. I love the look of it, and I'm thinking I may even do these as some of my Christmas Cards this year. So here's my version. I hope you like it. Please excuse the poor photo, it's very windy outside so you can imagine what it would be like trying to take a photo of acetate standing up.



Materials List.
Stamp Set - Snow Flurries, Warm Words
Cardstock - Whisper White, Ballet Blue
Ink - White StazOn, Ballet Blue, Whisper White
Accessories - White Organdy.

Arrrgghh it's a pirates life...

Ok, that's a lame title, I know. But for the challenges at essentialbaby.com.au I needed to create a boys birthday. This is what happened. I know I've seen the 4 circles before but cannot for the life of me remember where. I guess that's one of the hazards when you surf so many sites with such great ideas. And please forgive me, I know the photo is a bit wonky, but its rainy and windy here today. Just getting the card to stay upright to photograph was fun.

All material is Stampin' Up!
Stamp Sets - Fresh Fillers, Ahoy, Matey.
Ink - Basic Black
Cardstock - Pumpkin Pie, Ballet Blue, Basic Black.
Accessories - Slit Punch, Corner Rounder. 11/4 inch circle punch, dymo labeller (not SU).

My Girl

I spent the weekend scrapping, now all the people that know me, you can pick yourself up off the floor right now. It's not that much of a shock. Ok, so it is. But that's beside the point.

I have been really lax in my scrapping lately, for some reason I've been making a lot of cards. So I spent the weekend, organising my supplies, getting photos printed and doing layouts. I started a mini album for the grandparents of my DD's school photos, and I did her class photos from last year. I also found these great photos on my PC and was inspired to do a layout.

Tomorrow I'm going to concentrate on my DS. I have some great photos of him that need to be immortalised. I'm also dying to get my hands on some of the fantastic paper in the new mini, I really want the petals and paisley and notations sets.

All materials used are Stampin' Up!
Cardstock - Cranberry Crisp, Recollections Paper
Stamp Set - Warm Words
Inks - Chocolate Chip

Ohh Pretty Sparklies....

I know this is the 2nd card in a row I've posted using this set, but it's a must have! I love it a lot. I was also browsing through the latest copy of Creating Keepsakes last night and was inspired by their black, white and pink article. So today I created. I also decided to add a little bling, although it doesn't show up too well in the photos. But bling is always good.

I hope you like it.
