Randy' s Card

here is the card my husband randy made at the open house also. his 2nd card to date. :) dixie showed him to make and do the watercolor technique since he doesn't know what yet. I do believe the more he comes to dixies he will love maybe. he said he is not ready to make yet. lol. :))

Stampin Open House at Dixie's

it was pen house today and here is the card i made using markers and the watercolor technique that dixie showed me. now that I know how it is done i might do this more often. the background was a die that she sells thru stampin up also.

1-1 Swap From Sandy

Here are the cards I received from sandy who is in stampinandtaggin with me. she even made an extra for the 4th. uncle sam is 3-D like but it is lifted up with foam stickies. lifts it up off the cardstock to add omff too.thank you sandy.

A Note to You

this card I was wanting to do for awhile after I seen how to punch these like this. I used the 1 3/8 square punch from stampin up and the corner rounder from fiskars. all I used was scrap paper to make this with since we all have scraps. the sentiment is also from stampin up and the ink I used is coal from ancient page. the ribbon I forget where I bought it maybe from michaels I believe.

Old pictures

here is some pics of randy's brothers and 1 sister.this is when they was little. they are all married and have kids of there own. I torn the pattern paper on both sides of it.I also used a stampin up punch on the brown cardstock from Hollo's. plus I used a circle punch that i caanot remeber who it is by and punched circles . then I used 4 buttons which i put on top of the circles.

Paper Doll

Here is a paper doll that I made all by hand. It is for my mother in laws scrap page that she had done. I told her I would make this for her layout. Everything is traced by a template that I bought from Discount School Supplies. I also used a black gel pen to give some definition. I cut all this out by hand which takes longer but is so worth it for me.

Oopsey Daisy

I did this layout of my niece savannah. she loves doing this by going upside down. so it made a great layout. pattern paper I borrowed from my friend Lucie, I also used white ribbon, flowers that was given to me and orchid ink from stampin up which i used around the journaling box. te letters are from a template that I traced out and cut by hand. yeah I know i have the wizard and the cricut but when you are going scrapbooking somewhere else for me the templates are so much easier. I also used black gel pen around the letters.
