Summer Card Camp 2011

Hi Everyone,
Summer Card Camp started today. I couldn’t wait for tonight to work on the color challenge.  I just love Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire. They are both such super talented ladies and I really had fun working on the first challenge…and it certainly was a challenge for me. I don’t have a huge selection of pink and purple in my stash so I made due with my Copic markers. Doesn’t that Echo Park Summer Days paper go great with the Fly Away stamps set from Paper Trey Ink?

Stampin’ on Friday

Hi Everyone, Welcome back to another Stampin’ On Friday video. It’s Friday Woot! Woot!

Today I’m heading to Hobby Lobby with my mom and Ethan. It’s kinda of a tradition that we head there in June and do a little shopping and take Ethan to lunch. Yep he’s more excited about Burger King than Hobby Lobby! lol

Here is today’s Stampin’ On Friday video. I got the Newsprint Background Stamp from PTI a while ago and saved if for when I needed to make a masculine card, but after playing with it I can see lots of other ways to use this stamp set.

Here is this the video for today
