Lots today…
Hey there! I am now home from some time at my in-laws. However, Ken is stuck in Germany and unable to come home tomorrow as planned. That stinkin' volcano has caused it's problems and I am not too thrilled about it. However, Ken, meanwhile, gets to hang out in Munich and have fun. BOO on him – ha. :)
First thing to share today…
Was going through old photos and found some cards that I *think* I haven't shared. The first uses the I-Top Brad Making Tool. I will admit, I didn't think I had a need for this guy. But boy was I wrong. Once I used it with Sticky Back Canvas, I was hooked. The canvas wraps on it perfectly and stays put. I just inked up the brad and stamped on it. Such fun. (You can buy the tool HERE.)
Supplies: Imaginisce I-Top Brad Making Tool, Sticky Back Canvas, text paper, Papertrey Ink flower and leaf stamp; Hero Arts background, greeting and script on canvas centers; Distress Ink on canvas centers; Hero Arts chalk inks for all other; Hero Arts pearls and notecard
Used lots of the yummy Hero Hues Chalk Inks on these. Don't you love the smooth, bold color? That tone-on-tone background makes me smile. Here is another card I made at the same time…
That flourishy piece on this one was cut with my Silhouette – a Hero Arts shape. Yum.
Supplies: Papertrey Ink stamps, except for the Hero Arts greeting; Hero Arts Notecard, pearls and Chalk Inks, Silhouette Hero Arts die cut piece.
This leads me to my next subject…
… a big stamp sale over at 2peas. It looks like every Hero stamp is 25% off HERE! Gotta love that. That must-have cling dot background above is on sale HERE. And look at the deal HERE on my favorite greeting set…
Remember when I shared THESE great ATC's I got in a swap over at Hero Arts? Well, the dear Kelly Booth sent me how she is displaying hers… in a 7Gypsies Tray. LOVE it. She said I could share…
Last, I wanted to share a photo that my friend Tina took of me at the last class I taught. I have been known to stand on tables and crawl on tables to reach supplies in order to show what I am talking about. (I am a bit weird this way. Just having fun.) Tina tried to get photos during class, but I move too quick, I guess, but she got this one after class when I was chatting. And, yes, as normal – I am shoeless. 🙂
OK… off to watch Food Revolution. (And I beg you – please go sign the petition HERE! Even if it doesn't personally effect you, please consider it for those of us who really care about our children's future.) Take care.
