Just Us Girls Technique Challenge

Over at "Just Us Girls" the challenge this week was to share a 'centre step card' so I am sharing this gorgeous one inspired by Nancy from my team!
Featuring the Pennant Builder punch and coordinating stamp set for the 3D tree ... the picture does not show it but there are some dazzling diamonds on the string of lights there for the lights - some clear and some angles of the 3D I did red ink under them.

Happy Stampin'

Trick or Treat Vampire Bats

Spooky fun ..... Vampire Bat style! 

I had seen these litlte Bat samples all over the Internet and was exited to get to make one of these cool trick or treat bags as a sample at my upline Liz's class this weekend and see how easy they actually were that I thought what a cool project to make with the daycare kids for their trick or treat bags this weekend.

I tweaked the sample a bit by having the kids add some versamark via a brayer to the wings and than we heat embossed them hand over hand. As a result of little hands helping we got some embossing powder where it did not belong but that is ok I think it gives the wings that 'wet look' that bats have and well the crew loves playing with my Big Shot and other stampin materials - makes them feel grown up! 

The kids picked through my glitter brads to choose their favorite eye colors and helped with punching out some fangs using the small Pennant builder punch and of course the Dazzling Details to add the slippery vampire bat smile!




I also made up an encore offering of some of the spooky butterfly magnets and pins for the crew cause they were a hit last year!

Scrap & Crop Weekend

A huge thank you to Alicia from Crop Scene Inc for an amazing Scrap and Crop Weekend retreat ... truly had an amazing time!

My first scrapping retreat and I really enjoyed the whole thing ... the energy in the room and seeing some amazing new ideas and tricks for layouts!

I finally made my 'title page' for my first scrapbook which has long since been a work in progress scrapping photos from my family and childhood!

I had fun with the Petite Pennant Builder punch for my title and went with vintage colors but with some glitter and distressing.
 I paired the now retired Sense of Time with the Medallion stamp set for my back ground and layering with the Scallop punch to make some flowers!
It was a productive weekend and I was able to complete of 14 layouts which I look forward to sharing.

Pennant Parade

This card is the second one for our Technique Tuesday class featuring the Tapestry Background ... I love the combo of the 2010-11 In Color of Peach Parfait and Poppy Parade with the new 2011-12 In Color of Calypso Coral and a base of Tangerine Orange to create the fiery background with some Vintage Vogue leaves.

It was then embellished with the new Pendent Parade stamp and coordinating punch set - is just so cute ... I love the little banners you can make with it!


Thanks for stopping by and happy Stampin'
