Happy Birthday!

Hi Everyone! Today is a really BIG day in our house. Our son turns 16!!! We have a 16 year old! Time goes by so fast!

This is the card I made for him. Guess what his favorite colour is?

wetlands 

I used an old embossing folder that I have had since before I became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I used the technique where you brayer the colour in the embossing folder. I wanted the green to come out in the blank spaces, but I put the colour on the wrong side of the embossing folder (never really any mistakes in crafting right?!). Either way I liked how it turned out!

Supplies:

Paper: Whisper White, Cucumber Crush

Inks: Cucumber Crush

Stamps: Wetlands

Accessories: Happy Birthday Embossing Folder (not Stampin' Up!, but you could use any embossing folder), Decorative Label Punch, Oval Punch, Brayer, Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by, if you have any questions let me know!

Happy Stamping!

Stocking Stuffers!

Hi Everyone!  Around here we all contribute to putting stuff into each others stockings. That way the expense isn't all on one person. I found these little chocolate hockey pucks at our local Bluk Barn. I knew my dad would just love them!

too terrific tags

I put them in a cellophane bag and tied it with 1/8" Striped Ribbon from the Holiday Catalog. Of course it needed some kind of tag. I got out my old, but loved stamp set Too Terrific Tags (retired).

I love how you can take something so ordinary as little chocolates, and dress them up to look extra yummy!

Supplies:

Paper: Whisper White, Garden Green

Inks: Real Red

Stamps: Too Terrific Tags (retired)

Accessories: Cellophane bag, 1/8" Striped Ribbon, Tag Punch (retired), Bakers Twine

Hearth and Home

Hi Everyone! For today's card I used the very versatile Hearth and Home Thinlit. I have used it for all different occasions. I just love it!
