I just received my "Curly Label Punch Bundle" from Stampin' UP and here is my very first card. I chose some pattern paper from Scenic Route to see what color combos I could come up with. This way when I am ready to order for Stamp Camps I will know which color schemes I want to get in large quantities. This card is 4.25" x 4.25", so it will still fit inside a regualr A2 envelope. I have a little trick to accent the envelope when making a square card like this, so stop on by tomorrow for that.
On another note, my friend Karie aka 1 Crafty Gal has started a fabulous program. Her little boy Dominic was born a preemie, so she has started "Pages for Preemies". This is her mission which you can read more about on the website:
"Our mission is simple. I would like to provide each and every parent of a NICU baby with a completed scrapbook page. So many parents with children in NICU don’t get to touch, hold, kiss or sadly, bring their baby home; a pre-made scrapbook page allowing them to slip a picture of their precious little one is perfect. Parents can hang it on their baby’s crib/incubator and eventually take it home with them to place in a scrapbook or frame."
What a fabulous idea and such a kind a thoughtful thing to do! I hope to send a few pages or at least some supplies here in the next month or so. If you are interested please contact Karie... Thanks!!
See you tomorrow
Hugs,
Pam













Poor Kristina is having a rough couple of weeks. Her back went out and then her blog threw up, so she decided to post the sketch she drew up which was for her MACM. Since her back is out she can't sit at the table to make her card and movie, so she challenged us to use her sketch. This is what I came up with. The top layer is acetate stamped with my Fancy Pants "Alpha Chic" flourish with black Stazon ink. Then I add some Making Memories black glitter sticker letters to spell out the sentiment. The actual card is SU's new in color Pink Pirouette with a rectangle of Whisper White added to the center. The Whisper White piece was kissed with Pretty in Pink and Pink Pirouette ink. I attached the acetate sheet with a small brad in the top right and in the bottom left corner with a flower and large heart brad. The flower is a rub-on from SU that I put on to white card stock then cut out. The large brad is also from Making Memories. This came together really fast, which always rocks in my book. May have to do a similar version for my FCF this week. Any colors you would like to see me use??
