Sunday Scrap - Scary & Sweet.

Hi and happy Sunday, today's Sunday Scrap page is of Jamie  when he still had all his teeth. We were just playing around with the camera one day and ended up getting some great photo's. He is at the age (has been for a while) where he loves to pull funny faces.

 Here is a close up of the title, using the spotty image from the Extreme Elements set to add a bit of interest. I have also used the negative from the letter for some of the title.

Stamp Sets: Extreme Elements, Crazy for Cupcakes, Dotted Lines Wheel
Card: Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Riding Hood Red, Very Vanilla

Christmas Joy.

Hi, I have a Christmas card to show you today. I made this card with my Mum in mind, to give her ideas with using the 2 Step Bird in a Christmas card. I've used  the bird punch  as a Christmas dove, I have lightly inked around him with Tea Stain Ink from the Distressing Essentials Kit. Also used the Welcome Christmas stamp set and the En Francais background stamp. The garden Green ink looks great on the Pear Pizazz card.

Recipe
Stamp Sets: Welcome Christmas, En Francais
Card: Riding Hood Red, Garden Green, Pear Pizazz, Whisper White
Ink: Garden Green, Riding Hood Red, Tea Stain-Distressing Essentials
Punch: 2 Step Bird
Accessories: Real Red ribbon, dauber

Hope you like it Mum.

Christmas Class at Julie's.

Hi, on Friday night I went to a Christmas Class at Julie's, it was really good to be the student for a change instead of the teacher. I had a really great time with the other ladies and Julie had prepared amazing projects for us to make.

First we made this gorgeous Christmas card. I went a bit crazy with the gold Smooch Spritz ( a new product in the Summer Mini) 

Next we made these very cute pillow box gift boxes using the rock & roll technique.

Then we did a bit of heat embossing on this lovely Dasher card again I went a bit overboard with the silver Smooch Spritz.  Doesn't the silver look fantastic on the Concord Crush card.

Julie gave us this lovely Christmas box with a stamp inside, (a Christmas present for us) made with the Fancy Favor Big Shot die. And then we got to make ourselves.

And that's not all, Julie also gave us this bag of punched out goodies with buttons & brads inside. She certainly spoilt us.

Thank you Julie for a fantastic night of stamping.
