Grandson passed his driving test!

Well, our Grandson Braylon passed his driving test ~ we are so proud of him. Papa Bob went and got him a GPS today so he won't get lost ~ he'll send it along with this tag I made for him by UPS tomorrow ...



I used the Rich Razzleberry CS and Ink Pad, the Bigz Two Tags Die and cut the B from the Sizzlets Timeless Type Junior Alphabet Set. I stamped the saying from the Sense of Time Stamp Set on Whisper White and punched out with the Scallop Circle Punch and sponged it all and used the White Gel Pen to make the stitches look real.

I used the computer to add some sweet encouragement and printed it out and cut and mounted it to the back of the tag. I think he'll like it!

Butterfly Thank You Cards

I learned this new technique (Faux Foil) on StampingSchool.com tonight. You make a little box to hold 5 1/2' x 3 1/2" note cards. The cards are made by making a stencil, I used the Big Shot Beautiful Butterflies for my pattern. Use the sponge daubers to add Platinum Shimmer Paint and your Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the Thank You from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set. Rich Razzleberry CS for the box and Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink Pad for the "thank you". I used the silver cord and added a little bow made with the Rich Razzleberry Polka Dot Ribbon. Clear sheets for the box cover. (Sorry but the shiny gives off a reflection when I'm taking the picture!)

Happy Birthday Box

I finally made something (on my own, not a copy) LOL!!!! It's a little box I used Rich Razzleberry CS and ran it through the Big Shot with the Final Press Embossing Folder, added some Ribbon Originals Mistletoe and a tag that I made with punches and the Think Happy Thoughts Stamp Set, a little sponging with Razzleberry Ink Pad and Always Artichoke Ink Pad and attached with some of the Silver Elastic Cord. That's it!

Halloween Treats

I used the new Batty for You stamps to create these little treats. The #2 Box I cut out of DSP Cast-A-Spell and filled with little candy bars wrapped in the coordinating back-side of the paper that I used for the box. Rich Razzleberry Ink and CS, scallop punch and 1 1/4" circle punch and 1 3/8" circle punch layered with the Trick or Treat..smell my feet! For the bag I used the Top Note Die and the same scallops and circle with the scallop out of Whisper White CS and sponged along the edges with Rich Razzleberry Classic stampin' pad. Oh yeah, wrapped the box with Rich Razzleberry dotted swiss ribbon and tied the tag on with linen thread. Happy Halloween!
