War Eagle ...

Today's card is headed to Auburn but not to Michael.  This one is going to the apartment office with the rent in it.  I figure if I have to write that check, I am going to do something fun with it.  Don't know if they will appreciate it but I did enjoy making it.  

My card was inspired by Pals Paper Arts sketch this week.  

PPA143
I used the layout but just did a little flipping and rotating.  Here is my finished card ...
Stamps:  In Wilderness, Alphabet (unknown)
Paper:  White, Tangerine Tango, Chocolate Chip
Ink:  Memento Black, Tangerine Tango, Bashful Blue, Brocade Blue
Accessories:  Sizzix embossing folder, Copics, deckle scissors (non SU), edge distresser, sponge dauber, pop dots
All supplies are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted.

After running the white cardstock through the embossing folder, I swiped my ink pad over the raised images.

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day,
Pam~

Shake your Booty ...

Today's card has been stamped and sitting in my craft room for a couple of weeks.  Life happens ...

My inspiration came from MOJO sketch 257 even though it never got posted there ...

Here is my finished card ...

Stamps:  Bootiful Occasions, Button Button, Itty Bitty Backgrounds
Paper:  White, Black, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise
DSP:  Polka Dot
Ink:  Memento Black, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise
Accessories:  burlap, ribbon (non SU); Copic, Nestabilities oval and scallop dies, CB dots and circles embossing folder, sponge dauber, dimensionals
All products are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted.
  • Used the Button Button stamp set since it is less bulkier to mail than the real thing.
  • A piece of scrap burlap laying on my table made the perfect backdrop for this boot.
I have been stamping a little bit but just have not taken the time to post.  Hopefully over the next few days I will get those uploaded.  I completely understand why people take a blogging break. :)

As always, thanks for stopping by and ...

Have a great day,
Pam~

You Make Me Laugh ...

My inspiration for today's card came from Freshly Made Sketches ...
I'm on a masculine roll right now.  I've been sending cards to my son and nephew and don't have a whole lot in the college box.  So this will be another one for the guys in the box.

Stamps:  Card Games, Game Night
Paper:  White, Basic Gray, Riding Hood Red, More Mustard
DSP:  Basic Gray
Ink:  Riding Hood Red
Accessories:  Forest branches and dominoes embossing folder (CB), corner rounder, dimensionals
All supplies are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted

After embossing the dominoes on the white cardstock, I ran my ink pad directly over the raised images.  A very simple card here.

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day,
Pam~
