Noel







I'm really please with how this turned out!  I love the bright green with the red and white.

I die cut the big star using Wplus9 star dies.  Then I die cut  MFT's Medium Fancy Flourish in vellum.  I did a little surgery and cut off one of the curlycues then coated it with clear Wink of Stella.  The red stars were cut with Paper Smooches stars die.  Noel is from PTI's Think Big Favorites #8, embossed in white.


I'm playing along with CAS(E) this Sketch #92

I'm also going to throw it in for CAS-ology Cue Card Three
It might be a stretch, but it has 3 big stars, 3 little stars and 3 curlycue's with no stars!


AND...I'm going to put it in to Words to Scrap By #9 To Everything there is a Season



Our Badge!!!







Thanks for Looking!

Happy Birthday Ang!


This is a birthday card for a VERY special friend!  Her birthday is just a few days away, so I'm hoping she won't actually see it until she gets it in the mail!

I masked off the colored stripes then blended HA pool, tide pool and lime green inks in the openings.  I over-stamped the sentiments in the same color (I rushed it, so the middle stripe wasn't completely dry when I stamped the sentiments so they don't stand out as much).  The sentiment is stamped in Versafine and embossed with a sparkle embossing powder. The black dots are jewels.
Did you notice I made the last line say 'amazing friend happy birthday to you'!



All stamps are from The Big, the Bold and You, and, The Big, the Bold and the Happy by the great Winnie & Walter.  

Thanks for Looking!
