Vellum Background

 
This scrapbook page is another example of using the Holiday Fancy foil designer vellum over card stock to make it not really look like you can see through it.  This would work with any of the fancy foil vellums, I just made sure to put the adhesive where it would be covered up by another element and would not show through.

 
I also used some various Project Life pieces and some corrugated paper .

 
I love those wooden elements!
 
Supplies:
Project Life Stampin' Up!
Whisper White, Real Red, card stock
Project Life journaling pen
corrugated paper

You Make Me

 
Perfect Pennants is one of the retiring stamp sets so I wanted to make another card with it before its time is over (there may be more before the month is over too!).  

 
I pulled out my Chevron border punch and punched out of some Shine on specialty paper before adding card stock behind it.  I added some little silver stamped images from the All about Everything stamp set too.
 
Supplies:
All about everything, Perfect Pennants
Metallic Silver, Island Indigo ink
Whisper White, Island Indigo card stock
English Garden dsp
Shine on specialty paper
Chevron border punch

Happy Mother's Day

 
This is an April 2016 Paper Pumpkin alternative card idea using the stamp set from that kit as well as the chalkboard paper cutout.

 
I added some flowers to my background with Watermelon Wonder ink and then stamped the sentiment with Very Vanilla craft ink (in the Paper Pumpkin kit) and added some gold baker's twine to both sides in the precut holes.
 
Supplies:

You're the Best

 
My posts for the next few weeks might not be everyday...I will get as many in as I can though!  We will be planting potatoes pretty soon and have a few other things happening as well so I don't get to the stamp room often in May.
 
On to the card for today!  I used the Sunburst Sayings stamp set in the Occasions catalog and paired it with some Color Me Irresistible specialty paper.

 
I used my Delightful Dijon stamp pad directly on the specialty paper and then wiped off the excess with a tissue. 

 
I stamped, cut out and popped up one of my "You're the best" images...
 
Supplies:
Sunburst Sayings
Delightful Dijon, Early Espresso, Old Olive ink
Soft Suede, Whisper White, Old Olive card stock
Color me irresistible specialty paper

Junior Varsity

 
This time of year (and about until the middle of July) if I am not shipping potatoes or cutting potato seed I might be found watching one of my boys play baseball.  

 
Hunter is in his second year of baseball at school and will play again this summer.  Wyatt will be playing this summer too, although they will be playing in different towns this year which could get interesting before it is all over. 
 
 
I like to get the team pictures and use them in Hunter's scrapbook even though I usually get some action shots and put them on another page. This time I used some Holiday fancy foil designer vellum paper over the top of Whisper White as part of my background.

 
My letters were cut with the Big Shot using the white corrugated paper.
 
Supplies:
Simply Sports
Basic Black ink
Night of Navy, Whisper White and Basic Black card stock
Holiday fancy foil designer vellum
corrugated paper
enamel dots
circle punches

For your Confirmation

 
I put together a few confirmation cards for a customer this week and thought I would share them with you.  I used the All God's Grace stamp set.  
 
 
I die cut an oval and then stamped my cross on it with Soft Suede ink.  Next I used the Wink of Stella glitter brush and colored in outside of the cross.

 
The banners were cut with the Banners framelits and I added some texture with the Large Polka Dots folder and Perfect Polka Dots folder.
 
Supplies:
All God's Grace
Soft Suede ink
Tip Top Taupe, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla card stock
gold baker's twine
Wink of Stella glitter brush
Ovals, Banners framelits
Perfect Polka dots, Large Polka dots folders
modern label punch
