June Thank You's

Morning All,
I wanted to share my Thank You card that I made for June:

As you can see I stuck with my beach theme and used the "By the Shore" set again after scoring the base with my Simply Scored to create the wavy sand theme. I added a sentiment from the Petite Pairs set and after cutting out my two shells and adding a little "bling" I was done! Have a great day!

Summer time!

Hi All,
I wanted to post a picture of a card I was able to finish today using one of my "new to me" sets By the Shore. Love this set and was thrilled to see that it carried over!!

In addition to the By the Shore set I used Petite Pairs as the sale price was to good to pass up!! I ran the new "in color" Coastal Cabana through the Wood Grain EF for the look of water and then used my Simply Scored for ripples in the sand, then sponged the sand with Crumb Cake ink, heat embossed all the cool shells and starfish and cut them out, popping a few out for depth with dimensionals. Added some left over twine and the sentiment with the Vintage Trinket with the 7/16 scallop punch. Love the rustic look. I may modify this and hang them around my office for Summer decor! Love making some of my own decorations!
Thanks for stopping by!

Just Believe Faux Tiles

Morning All,
I wanted to share a card that I will be making at my next stamp club. I already shared my "Thank You" notes to my club members, which focused on the soon to retire "Just Believe" stamp set and a technique that uses the scoring tool to make faux tiles. I wanted to give my club members a chance to make their own, as it is a great technique thats easy to do with the scoring tool:

I used the color combo of River Rock (soon to retire) and Early Espresso. After scoring the River Rock every inch and sponging I added a few Vintage Trinkets on the center of the punched out circle and on the canvas ribbon and I was done. I LOVE that you can stamp on the canvas ribbon! Gives the card that rustic feel! Hope you have a great day!

April thank you's!

Evening All,
I thought I would share a quick picture of the April thank you's that I made this evening! The Stampin Up Scoring Tool made it super quick and easy! I will be sharing with the Stampin Up retiring list tomorrow and chose to use one of the sets that is destined for retirement: "Just Believe". Here is the Thank You that I made with it:



 I used the diagonal scoring plate to get the look of faux tile Cool and easy! I scored every inch on one side, rotated the card and scored on the oppostire side, stamped sponged and was done! Great effect! Email with any questions! Hope you have a great night!

Customer Rewards!

Morning All,
I wanted to share with you one of my newest customer rewards programs!! I am SUPER excited about it to! I am offering a "50/50" board during all workshops! This means that if you order $50 worth of product you get to place your name in one of 50 squares on my board and when the board is full I cut it apart and pull a name and that person receives $50 worth of merchandise FREE! So if you place an order for $101 you get to fill out two squares but if you place an order for $97 you fill out one square. Here is a picture of my "board":

I used some left over Raspberry Tart DP that I have held onto (I bet you can see why!?? Its beautiful!), a piece of Wild Wasabi and some Whisper White which I have scored with my new "Simply Scored" tool. Great tool for scoring and getting the perfect effect quickly! Please email me with any question and to set up your next workshop where this can be a great incentive to your guests!!

Thanks for stopping by!

(Edited to add some "bling", I felt like it needed a little "decoration")
