Ball Sizzix pop-up Die Variation

I made this for my daughter's graduation from West Virginia University this past weekend. Attached a covered coaster to the new Sizzix Ball Pop-up die. The die is the kind of item I LOVE-it can be used for many different things than the obvious! This graduation cap popped out at Beth when she opened her card!

Faux Wood

I love doing the faux wood technique for beachy cards-it reminds me of a worn deck, which reminds me of the breeze blowing on the beach....aaahhhh-is summer here yet??

Carousel Notes Scrapbook

This is my version of the Carousel Notes Scrapbook Purse created by Jan Tink.
Here it is opened.
Hidden panels lie under the 1st and last 'pages'. Here are the panels exposed.

Hidden panel exposed, allowing more room for pictures!
Embosslits used. Frames around mats are stamped with Matchbox Messages from the Occasions Mini.
Bird is embossed with clear embossing powder, allowing it to stand out.
Back panel exposed, stamped with Pocket Silhouettes.
This purse uses the Parisian Breeze Designer Paper-it has texture, and is just gorgeous! Colors are Baja Breeze and Kraft.
The ladies had this completely finished in 2 hours!

Flower Pot Card

Another one of our camp projects. Used the flower pot pattern found on splitcoaststampers, and the Sizzix Daisies II die. We all loved the results! And it was easy, to boot! I think I'll be making a lot more of these!

Post-It Note Holder

One of our projects from tonight's Stamp Camp. Literally takes 2 minutes!! Designer paper is adhered to a coaster; post-it pad held on by the clip underneath the embosslit flower. We added a magnet on the back so that it can be in a handy place on your refrigerator.

Manhattan Flower borders

It would definitely do these justice to put them on a page! but here is a set of 12x12 scrapbook borders I made with the Manhattan Flower set.

I'm Baaack!

It's been a looooong time since I've had a chance to stamp; it's so good to be back!
I love this time of year-walking around the yard and seeing what has newly popped out of the ground. I created this page with that in mind. Flowers are all made with punches, leaves are cut freehand from folded cardstock.
Enjoy!
