Core'dinations giveaway!

Today, over on the Scrapbook & Cards Today blog, I have this card featured as part of 3T Tuesday - Tips, Tricks and Techniques. It's an invitation that I designed for a friend for her son's water park birthday party this summer.

Supplies: Core'dinations cardstock and Sand-It Gadget tool, Fiskars border punch, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Stampin' Up! circle and scalloped circle punches, Quickutz dies (shovel, pail), American Crafts layering tape, Uniball black pen, Font: Another Typewriter, other: white card base.

If you would like to have a play with some Core'dinations ColorCore Cardstock and their new Sand-It Gadget tool, leave me a comment by 9pm EST on Friday, June 3, 2011. In your comment be sure to let me know which border punch is your fave in your stash. International folks are welcome!

Whoa. Where did May go?

May has been a blur.

I have been busy designing some things that I can't quite share just yet....but I can share this.

Here is the card that I made for my mommy for Mother's Day. She loves to sew so the pin cushion was not lost on her.

Supplies: Jillibean Soup kraft card base, My Little Shoebox patterned paper and diecut, Technique Tuesday stamp (Ali Edwards Collection), Tsukineko ink, American Crafts layering tape.

I will be back on Tuesday with a 3T's (Tips, Tricks & Techniques) project for Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine. ;0)
