Project # 287 of this year |
- A2 size card using white cardstock cardbase
- All background papers from paper packs from Walmart
- Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl folder
- ELEGANT EDGES "butterfly2" Oblong p. 51 cut @ 3 1/2" with shadow
- LOVE YOU A LATTE "cup 1" cut @ 2"
- Jute added for embellishment (this stuff is more than a year old!)
- The metal and bead hanging from the button is actually leftover goodness from my daughter. She used to make tons of earings when she was in highschool (that was more than 4 years ago). This stuff has been sitting in a box not being used, so she passed it on to me and said maybe i can use some of it on my cards. Ummmm.... Yes!
- Cardz TV Stamps "FAQ's" set used for sentiment
- The sentiment is stamped on the back of a ticket (I bought a huge ticket roll from Walmart and use them for so many sentiments! Perfect size!)
- Everything is inked around the edges with Tim Holtz Tea Dye distress ink

Cardz TV Stamps "FAQ's" set |
I craft in our daughter, Bonnie's, bedroom. We are in a small apartment, and there just isn't anywhere else for me to set up my Cricut and papers. So she shares her room with me when I craft. Lately she has been wanting to help me. She held the jute cardboard thingie and untwisted it while I was wrapping it around the bottom of my card. Then she held down the card pieces while I was deciding how to lay this out. She's so cute. I probably should mention for those of you who are new here, that Bonnie has special needs. She's completely precious. Just wanted to share.

Another cute card Janis, and another cartridge to add to my wish list. I am trying to not spend any money right now, am saving my pennies for CHA next month. Love the colors and the papers.
ReplyDeleteDo adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteI really lke your Latte card! And you are so right about Walmart. I'm in the Texas
ReplyDeletearea (outside Dallas) and all our Walmarts have little or no scrapbooking dept. And
I never get far enough from home to find a "real" scrapbook" store 'cause their all
a long way off from me. Keep up the good work you do. I really enjoy you and look
forward to more videos!
Hugs,
Thanks,Pat! I'm sorry your Walmart is doing the same as mine. It's a pain, isn't it? I'll try my best to get some more videos soon. :)
DeleteThis is adorable....both the card and the "Bonnie" story. Canadian Walmarts don't have much either. Hugs girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card Janis.
