This is a card that I sent to my Aunt. I punched out the pennants from brown cardstock and plaid paper. I embossed the edge with the tulips embossing folder. The sentiment outside and inside were stamped with A Jillian Vance Design Stitches set available here: http://www.ajillianvancedesign.com
Until next time,

"My Story" Scrapbooking card

Hi,
This my newest creation. I wanted a tag that I could put in a scrapbook. I am not sure if I want to journal on it or not. The quality of the photo is not great because I have my own shadow in the picture! Anyway, I used ecru cardstock, a turquoise stamp pad and a red stamp pad. I cut the typewriter out of Jillibean Soup Sweet and Sour Soup Crushed Tomato paper. The notebook and My Story are from A Jillian Vance Design stamps. This my very well be my favorite stamp. It brings back memories of buying school supplies every year and that was always so fun. This stamp and many more can be found at http://www.ajillianvancedesign.com Until next time, have fun!

Fund$ Gift Card Holder


Hello, Friends
I had a precut olive green gift card holder. I covered the outside with Jillibean Soup-Sweet and Sour Soup- Raisins paper. the paper is double-sided and the back is all typerwirter keys. I thought that it looked a little like money when I made a flower out of it. The inside flower is striped. I stamped the saying on ecru paper. This can be found at: http://www.ajillianvancedesign.com
The name of the set is I Am My Hair.
Until next time, I hope you have lots of Fund$ to support your papercrafts habit!

Notebook Give Thanks card

It is Thankful Thursday and how fitting that I start a bible study today!


Supplies for this card:

Kraft cardstock

Off-white cardstock

Turquoise Stamp pad

Various colored markers

A Jillian Vance Design Notebook set

A Jillian Vance Design Autumn Leaves set

Hole punch


I just loved this way this pumpkin looked a little like a sketch (If only I could draw like that). I stamped the notebook paper with Turquoise ink, cut it out, punched the holes out and stamped "Just a Note" and the Give Thanks bible verse in Brown. I colored the pumpkin in various colors and stamped it at the bottom. I mounted the page on Kraft cardstock. Inside I tore a part of another stamped notebook sheet and stamped the sentiment on that. This little notebook page is wonderful for scrapbook journalling, too. Both of these sets can be found at:

Golden Witch







Friends,

Welcome to Witchy Wednesday! For this little lady, I used Black cardstock, Hot Off the Press Hammered Gold paper, Stazon Black ink, and Adirondack Paint Dabber in Gold. I stamped the witch with the gold Paint Dabber,then added design with a gold pen, tore around the image and inked the edges with the Paint Dabber. I stamped "Wicked" with black Stazon ink. My favorite witch and Wicked are both from A Jillian Vance Design Witchy Poo set, witch can be purchased below. Ok, I know I spelled "which" wrong! LOL!

Black and Maize Halloween card



Hello, Friends!


I am sharing this card design with you. I used black and maize cardstock. I stamped the Witch from the Witchy Poo set, the bat and Happy Halloween from the Eye on Halloween set, the cat and large spider from the Spooky set, the little spiders from the God's Art set, and the mini stitch hanging from the large spider are from More Stitches. After stamping, I cut the tops of each piece at an angle and attached them to the front of the card. I inked the edges in red to help them stand out. On the inside, I stamped the sentiment on maize cardstock, left enough room for a signature, cut it out at an angle and attached it.

All these cute stamps used on this card can be found at:



I would love your comments! Until next time, have fun!
