Snowflake Christmas Card

Here is a quick and easy Christmas card using the Big Shot Stampin' Up Snowflake die and the large Scallop Circle die. I covered the snowflake with Dazzling Diamonds glitter using a liquid glue pen. Topped it off with a rhinestone brad...Done. I am up at the Kern River and the weather is just beautiful but internet service is very frustrating! My lap top keeps disconnecting ...ARGGGGHHH..I have tried to post this 3 times. Needless to say 45 min later...I purposely put a couple pics on mylaptop to upload but this is taking way toooooooo longggggg. Happy Shopping!

Last Pazzles post.... back to Stampin' Up next post

One of the Pazzles Design Team projects for Sep. was to design 2 titles for a new CD coming out in the future. Boy were mine polar opposites!! I went from Babies to Halloween. Anyway the frightfully good time one uses lime green Stickles for the runny green slime on the caps of the letters. Also the pen tool was used for the lettering on the head stones.
The clothes line "Baby" uses the "kiss cut" to define the outline of the onesie with a border. Isn't the baby one cute! They will be on an upcoming CD sometime in the future.

Secret Message Card

This is a unique card...called a Secret Message card. You open it one way and figure out how to open it the other way and you have a whole different card. This was one of the many cards on the Pazzles Greeting Cards CD that we used for our Sep. Design Team projects. If I were to make another one I would use one less cut/fold, See the prple alternating with the black...there would only be 3 alternating instead of 4. Oh...and don't put your glue in the wrong place either...yup learned the hard way!

Don't Mess With A Man And His Truck

This was my Pazzles Design Team project for August. We were supposed to design something about "Guys". I used the "kiss cut" quite a bit for the detail in the truck. I took a generic picture off the web and hand vectorized the image. The windows are made out of vellum. The grill and rims were silver metalic paper. I used a Stampin'Up tire tread wheel on the tires. All the growth under the truck was stamped with Judith & Heather stamps. The pictures I used were from the Toby Keith concert I had been to recently and Toby always has a FORD Truck front grill on his stage. The pictures were taken when he was singing "American Soldier" The title of this page has a story behind it other than Toby's pictures.....Well this summer I borrowed a friends truck to haul some molding, plumbing and general home improvement stuff. This is a work truck that stinks of working man and smoke...get my drift...yuk. The truck was my friend's "Baby". I used the truck for 6 hours driving 1.5 hours each way up and back a winding road to get the supplies needed (mind you supplies both of us needed) . I get back and proceed to get an earfull of nastiness. I had put molding through the back sliding window to fit it in the bed of the truck. (Big Sarcasm in this next sentence!) Oh My it was touching the head liner in the stinky truck! Oh was he pissed off...not even hearing that I had held down the molding with my heavy purse so it would not hit/bounce off the headliner while I drove his "Baby" . I drove that truck so carefully and nicely compared to how I beat up my jeep. Men!!! Jeez!!! Goodness sakes I would have replaced the headliner if I ripped it, but I did not, I was careful! Never, Never, Never mess with a man's truck especially if there is alcohol and a temper involved!! Also I have known this friend for over 35 years!!! ARGGHH!

Party Invite

This is an invite I did for an Open House I had this August. I actually forgot to post it...Duh ...Blond... I really love this set from Stampin' Up; Grand Soiree and the paper; Parisian Summer is perfect for it. Of Course I had to have the Open House display under my real crystal Chandelier!

Time to start posting again...

Here is the project I did for the July Pazzles Design Team.....Did I say July?? Yup we have to keep everything we do to ourselves for at least 30 days when we submit our projects and designs. This one was using the Swirls and Twirls CD that is available from Pazzles. We also had to make a matching little project to go along with the scrap page. I chose to do a small coaster book that I bound with my Coil Mac. I love the picture of my Husky sleeping on her back. She used to do that when she would sleep on my waterbed.
