Totally TURTLES

Do you have a hard time coming up with masculine cards? Stampin' Up! has several sets that work great for guy cards. Here's two cards I made using Stampin' Up!   Sets I used are Open Sea and By the Tide. I also used some embossing folders to make the wood piece and added bakers twine to give more dimension.   Oh I really like the new chalk technique. Stamp on Basic Black cardstock with Whisper White ink. Smear a little across the cardstock and it looks like a chalk board.   Email if you want to order the supplies to make this.

Do you love to do traditional hand stamped cards? Do you like making 50 of them? Well I like creating a card to send to friends and family but I don't always like to make a bunch of the same card. MDS makes it really easy for me to design a beautiful card that I can customize for the individual easily. I can also add some traditional stamping after printing it if I want. Here's the MDS card I made for a thank you card to Amanda's Birthday. (Not sent yet). LOL. My plan is to put a picture of each child in the box so they'll have a picture of themselves from the party. I downloaded this awesome chalkboard paper with cute scrolls and designs in it. I also had this neat looking tape accessory that went nicely with the theme. MDS can change any photo to sepia so this was actually a full color photo I took. If you think you might want to try MDS there's a free 30 day trial on the website. www.mydigitalstudio.net Make sure you pick me as your demonstrator. ...
