Swaps

My Stampin' Club decided to do a swap of card fronts.

The results....awesome! 

There were no rules or themes to the swaps, only to make a card front so we could mount them later.

We plan to do a Christmas swap next!

Here are the cards:

Gifts & Club

I'm a little behind on posting pictures.

First....

I wanted to share gifts I made for Vincent's Preschool Teachers.

Here are the cards. (I'm getting lots of use out of my Beautiful Butterflies Die!)

 

Here are the clip boards I made them.

I attached magnets to the back so it could go on their fridge.

And when they get tired of looking at my son, which I doubt they will :)

They can take the scrap page off and put their grocery list on it.

We were so lucky to have two wonderful teachers this year.

We will miss them!

 Kindergarten here we come!

Here are the projects we made this month.

The first is a diorama card, using the Hoppy for you set. 

This card folds up to fit into a medium size envelope!

 Fun cards to make!

We also made gel card. 

Can you see the other frog peeking through the gel "pond"?

Hope you had a great Father's Day!

 

Happy Birthday Mom!

We celebrated my Mom's Birthday on the 31st of May.

We all met for lunch, as she had to work that afternoon.

This is the card I made for her.

I sponged ink on one of the flowers from the Pretties Kit.

Then punched a jumbo eyelet through it then used a jumbo brad to go through that.

Going to miss the the in colors, mostly the Kiwi Kiss and Baja Breeze!

I embossed the Happy Birthday with silver emboss powder.

We bought her a charm for her Pandora bracelet.

So I had to make her something to put it in!

This is the Bag with Scallops die for the big shot.

The gray flower is made with the embosslits die, Cherry Blossom.

The embosslits are really cool, you put in your piece of paper in the folder run it through the big shot, and out comes a shape cut and embossed for you ready to use! 

And love the pink flower brads too!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Beautiful Butterfly Birthday

I just got the Beautiful Butterfly die for the Big Shot.

I haven't had a lot of time to play around with it, but here is the birthday card I did manage to make with it!

I also used the Top Note die for the front and inside of the card, and the flourish textured plate (Stampin' Up! Backgrounds 1) for the front.

I used Pink Pirouette cardstock, Pretty in Pink ink, Designer paper Candy Lane, Stamp sets Baroque Motifs and A Little Birthday Cheer, Pretty in Pink ribbon and retired pink button.

Can't wait to go play some more!
