Totally priceless...

I just cannot get away from this Priceless set. I just love it. For this card, I actually cut into my charbon paper and that was so hard! I used basic grey in a square 5 1/4 card. I then used the rock n roll technique to stamp the butterfly in both grey and blue, then cut it out and popped the wings up for some dimension...I tied the ribbon around the charbon paper and rolled the background on the main card stock and I was done...super simple and quick card.

Priceless...

I am back from vacation and back into the swing of things. I needed some quick thank you cards and wanted to use a few of my new sets, so this is what I came up with using my new fav set Priceless. I totally cased the layout from a card I loved on splitcoast...just changed it up and used paper, stamps and punches that I had. I wheeled the matching wheel along the chocolate chip paper using versamark then embossed with clear embossing powder. Havent done that in a while and it was fun! I then used scraps from some great My Minds Eye paper I have had laying around. I cut the scallops using my corner rounds and the oval tabs on the side are from my new large oval punch from Stampin Up of course. I added some ribbon, primas (a new jumbo eyelet...love them!), and some faux stitching. I then punched a scallop, distressed the edges with chocolate chip ink, added some more piercing, and popped the sentiment up on dimensionals. This card took forever tonight...not sure why. I bet the rest of the cards I need wont be so involved, but it sure was fun. Enjoy :)

Our silly face boy

I'll admit. I dont think you can really say you are a scrapbooker until you actually scrapbook something. I really only collect stuff to scrapbook and never actually put the pictures to the page so to speak. Then I was cruising the idea gallery on splitcoast and saw the cutest page...this was ions ago...and it just really stuck with me. (PS I cruised looking again for my inspiration to no avial. If anyone knows who I got this idea from, let me know. I would love to give her credit on here!) Until to tonight. I decided to do it and make a page of my own. Please hold all applause until the end. This is what I've come up with. The journalling reads: "Everytime we go to take a picture, you become our silly face boy. Always keep that silly smile on your face.- Winter 2006".

Happy Anniversary...I guess :)

Anyway, but can you believe it, I almost forgot my own anniversary! And so did my husband...anyway, after 9 years he atleast deserves a card. So, I cut up my newly received Baroque Motifs stamps set, some random MME paper, and a sentiment from another new set Hugs and Wishes. I used only basic black ink and basic black and bashful blue paper. Added some organdy retired:( ribbon and a rhinestone brad for some elegance. Hope he loves it as much as he loves me! Off to more important things...Enjoy!
