Love Bug

-
As promised to some who attended class last week here is my "Love Bug" card. My downline Diana was kind enough to share with me her instructions that she may have gotten from here. But I will verify with her on that and correct if needed. We changed some of the punches just because we didn't have them and/or thought some of the newer punches worked better. The window was Diana's idea entirely.
Details:
Top: 2-1/2" circle punch with the large oval for window, slot punch for rear view mirror
Hood - extra large oval, large oval cut in half
Fenders - large oval
chrome - word window and slot punch (we no longer sell it)
Tires : Modern label
Headlights - 1/2" circle punch with a generic rhinestone on top.
Most supplies are Stampin' Up! The cardstock is real red, basic black and pretty in pink. The shimmery paper for the chrome is paper Diana had in her stash. The Love patterns dsp is from the Filled with Love bundle. Other items used are the small heart punch, well scripted stamp set, love bugs stamp set (both retired), basic black ink, dotted scallop ribbon punch and the decorative label punch.

We had so much fun making these. I hope you do too.
Happy Stampin'
Tricia

Gift Card Flower Bouquet

It is the end of the school year for us.....finally! I can't wait to have my kids home for the summer. I love lounging in PJ's all day, and taking fun day trips to the beach or museums. I'm sure those days will include sibling arguments and a messy house but I choose not to think about that. I have tons of kids activities pinned on Pinterest for those moments I will want to pull my hair out. And when I need a break I will lock myself in my bedroom and skim the internet for new card ideas. That's my plan anyways, we shall see what happens.... Anyways, with the end of the school year comes class parties, school events and teacher gifts. I was room mom for one of my boys classrooms and my co-room mom and I decided on a gift card bouquet for her. It was really fun to put together. I used all of my favorite punches and some techniques I learned from Carrie Cudney herself at the SU convention last year. You can see a quick tutorial on one of the flowers I made  here . ...

Thanks for visiting today! Here is my Frosty Friends swap card for the Over the Top swap, "Bling It". This swap was organized by Barbara Jackson, thanks Barbara I had a great time. Frosty Friends stamp set (C) Stampin' Up! I tried to use as many "blingy" things as I could. I used our silver glimmer paper, basic rhinestones,dazzling diamonds glitter, and shimmer paint. Now with the shimmer paint I used the new spritzers available in the new catalog, I poured some of the paint in the spritzer, added some water and spritzed the paint onto my card. I used my two way glue on the snowmen by tracing the outlines and then sprinkling on the dazzling glitter. The snowflake is cut using our new snowflake die. SUPPLIES stamp set: Frosty Friends, Easy Events ink: staz on black, early espresso paper: sahara sand, whisper white, cherry cobbler, and pool party card stock; pool party designer prints paper accessories: cherry cobbler seam binding, ribbon punch, s...

I really love the versatility of this set. Its so easy to create fun and useful cards, tags and gifts. The boxed set comes with two ink spots, a block, stamp set and matching punch. I matched this with the Tea Room dsp, a specialty paper with 24 sheets. The layers are created with punches, stitched shapes and layering squares framelits. Because the envelopes are quite snug, you want to keep your layers flat, I only used one layer of dimentionals per card. Happy Stampin, Tricia
