National Honor Society

Here are a few more pages for my son's scrapbook as I get everything ready for his graduation next week!  I realized I hadn't made a page for his induction to National Honor Society junior year so I did pages for that as well as his senior year as he helped induct new members.

Many layers of the first page are from the Tropical Oasis designer series paper collection...

On the second page I used the retired Classic Garage designer series paper along with coordinating colored card stock and some retired silver buttons.  The journaling is on a die cut made with the Beautiful Boughs set.

Pedal to the Metal

Here are a few different masculine birthday cards all using the Pedal to the Metal stamp set.  I have stamped each of the vehicles with Memento Black ink and colored them all in with Stampin' Blends.

Each one has a die cut piece or two from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies as well as a Stitched Rectangle die cut and a couple also use the Beautiful Boughs die set.

The last card uses some Silver Foil paper and the Coastal Weave embossing folder in the background.

November Stamp Club

Our Stamp Club projects used lots of designer series paper this month!  The Brightly Gleaming specialty paper, Christmastime is here specialty paper and Night Before Christmas 6" x 6" paper stack.

The first card uses the Christmastime is here paper along with the Stitched Rectangles and Beautiful Boughs dies .  The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Birthdays.

Next, we used the Brightly Gleaming specialty paper along with some retired glimmer paper and the Beauty and Joy stamp set.

Finally, our layout uses lots of the Night Before Christmas designer series paper, which comes in a 6" x 6" stack.  The card stock colors are Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, Old Olive and Pretty Peacock.

Prayers and Sympathy

Even though I know I won't be able to get posts out to you every day again for a little while I wanted to at least get a couple out there this week!  This card uses the specialty paper I shared in the post yesterday about the Christmastime is Here bundle that is available while supplies last.  

I used it as the background for a sympathy card instead of as a Christmas project and paired it with retired Wood Textures designer series paper.  The sentiment is from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set and is stamped on a piece die cut from the Beautiful Boughs dies collection.

Birthday Catch

My niece has a birthday today and she requested items for her tackle box on her birthday wish list so I thought I would use the Best Catch stamp set and Catch of the Day dies on her card to keep the fishing theme going.

I haven't figured out the best coloring scheme for a walleye yet, but will keep practicing!  

The background is a piece of Noble Peacock specialty designer series paper with three layers of Stitched Rectangles layered on top.  The blue layer is actually Whisper White that I swiped my Balmy Blue ink pad over a few times.

The die cut for the sentiment is from the Beautiful Boughs dies collection in the Holiday catalog.
