You Rock!

Hello Stampers!

I was away the entire weekend in Toronto to see "The Sound of Music" with my Mom.

The production was fabulolus, we loved it.

I have been making some cards but I am not sure if I can post them becasue I am entering them in a Stampin' Up! challenge.

In the mean time I will show you a card that was on display at Regionl's that was held in London two weeks ago. I was not a fan of skulls until my friend Heather started stamping using the Just Jawing stamp set. Between Stampin' Up! and Heather I have changed my mind about skulls.

Hope you had a great weekend and found time to stamp.

You Rock!

I have mention in the past that I volunteer at my children's school every other Monday during the lunch hour.

Today we only had 6 students but generally we have 10 delightful young ladies. I feel blessed to hang out with them and teach them how to stamp.

I prepare the materials and we make 2 projects in the 45 minutes we are together.

The girls really liked the skull from "Just Jawing" and this card idea was taken from Heather. Thanks Heather!

We also made a photo frame using two 4 x 4 chipboard coasters.

Recipe for card:

Stamps: Just Jawing

Paper: Tempting Turquoise or Pink Passion, Basic Black, Halloween DSP

Ink: Black, Pink Passion or Tempting Turquoise

Embellishments: Dazzling Diamonds, 2 Way glue Pen, dimensionals

Cool enough for a teenager...

It seems I am always creating paper crafts for my daughter however, this Valentines I was determined to come up with something for my 14 year old son.

Justin plays the drums (he is really good too) and is learning to play the electric guitar so I needed something cool, rockin' and Valentines; hmmm.

I thought how perfect would Rockabilly DP and Just Jawing be paired together to form a treasure box for a cool teen on Valentine's Day.

Recipe:

Stamps: Just Jawing

Paper: Rockabilly DP, Riding Hood Red texture c/s, Halloween DP, Whisper White

Ink: Basic Black

Embellishments: Black & White gingham ribbon, crystal effects, 3 heart punch

I was pleased with the end results and Justin was able to contain his excitement too while looking pleased at the same time.

Hope you like it. Hug the ones you love not just today but everyday.
