I made this quick card on Tuesday night. I haven't used the tearing technique for awhile so it was fun to use again. I've seen hair bows made with ribbon like this so I thought it might be fun to try as an accent on a card. Not to shabby! :)

Quick Cards
Tuesday we had a "card making party" with the women in our church. I'll be posting the cards I made that night the next few days.
I really liked the fun layout of this card. The top corner of Designer Series Paper is folded over to reveil the backside of the paper as well as a a little pocket. I thought it would be the perfect spot for a tag or a gift card. The papers I used are retired DSP from SU! :) I'll definitely be doing this layout on a card or two in the future.

Football Player Graduation
It's definitely that time of year. I made this for a friend to give to her nephew. He's into football so I used that for the background...and of course personalized it with the Just Rite Stamps :) This card is also a money holder. It's a piece of 8 1/2 x 11 CS scored at 4" and 8". The inside flap is punched with the scallop punch and attached with sticky strip.

Happy Graduation!
Congratulations, Lindsay! We're so proud of you and all that you've accomplished. This is the announcement I made for her to send out. I'm glad I could do something fun for her :)

Teacher Thank You
On a lot of the stampin' blogs I visit, I've seen thank you cards for teachers. Here's my "chalkboard" version. It was a super easy card to make. The "chalkboard" was made with Basic Black CS. I sponged/rubbed Whisper White Craft ink on it. I then stamped the greeting in Whisper White Craft. The bottom of the board was created using a strip of Chocolate Chip CS that I ran through the crimper. The chalk and eraser are just scrap pieces from my desk. I scored the side of the card and inserted brads. Happy Stampin'!

Super Star
Took some time to scrapbook last week. I really needed it! I love to make cards...but I find I'm so much more relaxed when I scrap :) It's definitely my stress relief. I know I need to make more time for it.
