My Nephews Birthday card

My Nephew is turning 5 and His party is this weekend. I bet you could guess what the theme of the party is just by looking at the card. Yep, It's STAR WARS !!!! To make the lifesavers I used the tacky tape then just poured the glittler on. For the handles I used Stampin up retired punch. (name?) The happy birthday is a retired stamp set. I used itty bitty backgrounds too. Paper used was Basic black and brocade blue. I still may stamp the number 5 spuratic and fading a few times.
The Force be with you. TFL

Daughters flipflop invites



These were made for my Daughters Birthday. Her party is at a pool so we thought a flipflop theme would be fun.
I hate cutting so I got to thinking how I could get a flipflop look without cutting. I know it's not a conventional flip flop look but you get the idea right?

I used the tagnote diecut from Stampin up and I used the curly label punch. I also used a 1/8 inch punch. Only stamp used was the all holiday. The designer paper is from a dollarstore and the ribbon I used was either orange or certainly grosgrain ribbon. I typed up the info and printed it up and used the tagnote diecut again. Then I just stuck them together. Lots of fun and quick to because of no cutting. hehe TFL

Name fram for customer's daughter

I did this frame for a teacher at my daughters school!! I made her 1st daughter one a few years ago as a gift and she came to me wanting one for her youngest girl. It's got alot of bling that's hard to see from the picture!! I got the frame at Michaels crafts and used a Stampin up retired lowercase alphabet. The small butterfly is from the set live yourf dreams. The Designer paper is stampin up tea party. I also used so saffron, whisper white and almost amythyst. Accessories: I used Stampin up's butterfly die cut, large oval and oval scallop, white taphia ribbon, wide white organdy ribbon , white spackle tape(mesh) from home depot and lastly lots of dazzeling diamonds. I love doing the frames. thanks for stopping by: Terry

Frame and card for Retiring Teacher

Above is a Name frame I was hired to do for a Retiring Male Teacher at my Daughters school. I made the frame similar to the card below as far as the background goes. I bought the Frame at Michaels Craft. Loved it because it's very manly looking. I got a hold of a past yearbook and cut and matted the front part of the school and the sign name that's infront of the school. If you really look close you'll see I made the page look like a faux book front. I have scoring on the side to give it a binder look. I embossed the paw stamp on the top of the binder part.
Stamps I used were Artifects, It's Academic, Natures beauty and retired set of little alphabet from Stampin up. I used the computer for the teacher quote on the side. Ribbon I used a blue grograin. Ink I used blue frost spectrum pad for the Letters and I used so saffron. Thanks for stopping by: Terry
