Thank You Card

So, I am playing with my things today while surfing through blogs and I come across a blog that teaches you how to use a pack of DSP and cardstock with some ribbon, a scallop or my case a circle (because I have not bought the scallop, yet) and a saying and this is what I created. I was really scared of what this paper (Good Morning Sunshine, which by the way is retired now) would create because it is so busy, but I think it turned out really well.

The contains 2 strips of DSP 5"x2", One piece of Chocolate Chip 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" matted to a cut piece of cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" and scored down the middle at 5 1/2". Before matting the Chocolate Chip on the back of the card I ran a piece of Chocolate Chip Ribbon across the middle to form a cross and glued them to the back of the Chocolate Chip. Then I matted the Chocolate Chip tho the card. I cut the circle out with 1 3/8" circle punch and glued it right on the middle of the cross. I think for the next little while I will be playing with some of this paper and preparing some of the various greeting (thank you, birthday wish, get well soon, etc...) cards and packaging them to sell. Once I get the first one complete I will post the prices.

True Friend 12x12 page

We will be creating this page Monday morning during my scrapbook club at my house. I used Perfect Plum, Pale Plum Whisper White card stock and Tea Part DSP. I used the True Friend and Taffy Alphabet as well as the 1 3/8" circle punch. Come join us for a morning of scrapbooking. Cost is $10 to cover all materials. Hope to see you there.

Baby Shower Card

My siter and I sat down this evening to create a baby shower card for one of her friends. We used So Saffron and Whisper White cardstock. I had a sheet of some Designer Series Paper given to me and I am not sure what the name of it was, but we used a piece of it and some Old Olive ribbon. We choose the Wagon Full of Fun stamp set.... and below is the creation that we made. Sorry about the picture quality, my camera must be messing up on me.
