PPA48-A Sketch Challenge


I really liked this sketch; I'm sure I'll be using it again! Unfortunately, tonight I needed a sympathy card to send to my aunt. I *love* the patterned paper I used, but I have no idea where/when I got it... I couldn't find a company name anywhere on the paper!??

Materials:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink
Ink: Hero Arts-Chalk Latte
Paper: Stampin' Up and unknown patterned paper
Accessories: satin ribbon, foam squares

Materials:
Stickers: Doodlebug Design-Summertime
Paper: Basic Grey, Stampin' Up

PPA45 - Inspiration Challenge

This card is for the color challenge on Paper Pals Arts. (However, the colors aren't showing up well in the photo.) I busted out my Big Shot for the first time. What a fun "toy"! I can't believe I haven't used it before tonight. I'll definitely be using it more from now on!

Materials:
Stamps: "Congrats" Stampin' Up
Ink: Going Gray" SU
Paper: Stampin' Up
Accessories: Fiskars Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals

Congratulations!

This is a graduation card for a dear former student of mine. She was in my class in 5th grade, and then came back to do her senior project in my 3rd grade room. Congrats, Ashley!


I got the design idea from Kristina Werner, but I tried to use Ashley's high school colors.

Materials:
Stamps: Limited Edition Basic Grey
Ink: Color Box
Paper: Stampin' Up
Accessories: Grosgrain Ribbon, SU Scallop Punch
