Same Same Friday...on a Saturday


Here are two very quick little cards I made for this challenge, with a twist! This time I choose to do the same stamps, same colors and accessories, but different layouts! I hope you enjoy these cards!! I know I have been away for a while, but I have been very busy...I got an order for 30 bridal shower invites and I have been working on an order for 150...YES 150 birth announcements...needless to say I haven't had much time for much else!!! So I will be posting the bridal shower invites soon and I will be posting more hopefully next week!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish everyone a very HAPPY EASTER!!!!

"For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son, so that whoever belives in HIM shall not parish but have eternal life." John 3:16

As you spend time with your families this Easter weekend please remember the sacrifices that Jesus suffered for us! He loves us and wants us to be with Him in heaven one day. Do you know Him as your personal Lord and Saviour???

Happy Stampin'

Recipe Swaps


So my good *friend* Keri is hosting a 6x6 recipe card swap and I have really enjoyed putting them together...at least the first one anyways...LOL I used a stamp set called Tart and Tangy found in the Occasions mini collection and is available until the 31st of May... I lvoe this sey...so versatile and very very cute I might add!

What do you think of the Rose Red? Too much? Anyways here is what I did! I used my computer to print up the recipe and cut it out then I matted it on a piece of close to cocoa that measures 5 1/8 x 4 1/4, and that is finished!

For the 6x6 card itself I just used a piece of pumpkin pie cardstock and stamped the orange on 2/3rd's of it with the orange using pumpkin pie ink. I then used a piece of 12x12 cardstock to cut 1/2inch x 6 inch pieces of close to cocoa (so for 25 recipe cards I used less than one sheet of cardstock!) and I also used the new designer series paper called Summer Picnic. I used just a little over 2 sheets for this as the orange is 1inch x 6 inches...getting 24 pieces from one sheet of designer paper!

I then layered the cocoa and the desinger paper and attached the ribbon loops to the back of the recipe card. to add a finishing touch, I addedstamped one of the salloped flowers from So Many Scallops (a free Sale-a-bration set, contact me for more info!) in rose red on shimmery white cardstock and punched it out using the scalloped punch! I also used my 1 3.8th circle punch to make a mat for the orange which is stamped on shimmery white using pumpkin pie classic ink. And last but not least I used the 1/1th hole punch to add a little more detail. What do you think? I hope the swap participents like it as much as I do, but I hope they enjoy the yummo recipe too!

Supplies:

Stamps: tart and tangy, so many scallops

Cardstock: pumpkin pie, shimmery white, close to cocoa, very vanilla, summer picnic DS paper

Ink: rose red, pumpkin pie

Accessories; 1/16th hole punch, 1 1/4 circle punch, 1 3/8 circle punch, scallop punch, close to cocoa ribbon, SU! font

Happy Stampin'
