End of Summer Camping

As Summer is wrapping up, my family has an annual camp out. I made this card as my "thank you" card to my Mother-in-Law for hosting us on their property. I used Lawn Fawn's Happy Trails stamps & dies for the camper & car along with the Love You S'more stamps & dies. I made the star background using Tim Holtz distress inks and white embossing of the Impression Obsession Cover-A-Card Stars background. Super fun card, but I made 4 like this and man that was a LOT of tiny tree die cutting! :) Inspired by Nichol Magouirk's card featured on the Lawn Fawn blog here.

DeNami Aloha

Wrapping up a few summery cards before Fall starts. This one features all DeNami stamps: E137 Small Cloud, F133 Small Sun Swirl, J91 Medium Palm Tree, G121 Aloha, B89 Umbrella Garnish, B97 Hula Chickie and B100 Surfer Chickie. Check out more of their tropical themed stamps here! I hand drew the sand and outlined the card shapes with a glitter gel pen.

Right Now

I made this card as a thank you to my boyfriend's mom who hosted a small campout at her house this past weekend. I just love the Summertime Charm stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn!

Palm Tree Fun

I made this little card for a free "make & take" at my local scrapbook store (now sadly closing it's doors) for the NW Paper Chase. This card feature DeNami Stamps: E86 Small Bold Hibiscus and J91 Medium Palm Tree.

Shoreline Fun!

For my next ScrapVille Design Team challenge, I created these cards from American Crafts Shoreline collection. I also used Studio Calico's wood veneer cameras and camera mistables. So much fun to dye the cameras using Tim Holtz distress stains and adding stickles- a great way to make them match my papers and not very messy!

Elegant Weddings

I'm attending 4 weddings this summer, 2010 is the year to get hitched I guess... here are 3 cards I made based on a DeNami Design card class I took recently.

Camping Out

It's almost that time of year when camping starts! I love creating my own tree log frames by cutting long wonky rectangles and drawing my own lines and knots. Each one is different and quick to make!
