When I need a quick card, this is my go to design. Cut a piece of designer paper into 4x3" pieces, add on a top design, in this case I embossed a piece of very vanilla with the Big Shot, add some ribbon or a punched layer, and as quick as that you have a great card.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by....Send me your comments...do you have any special requests you would like to see? <br /><br />Host a Chicks and Chocolate night and earn all kinds of free merchandise.

Hope this post dated timing works.<br /><br />This is what I call an "Instant Ancestor" page. The portrait is so lovely and really matches the vintage feeling of the paper available during Saleabration. If you look really close, you will see I added some direct to paper inking, along with a sidenote Attic Boutique collection in the mini. <br />Let me know what you think...I have some more scrappy pages to show you tomorrow...and I will be teaching a class at Memories on Main on March 4th.

You sign in, select your interests, then hit stumble and voila....another great way to waste time!! Some of my friends have also recently hooked me on to Pinterest...haven't gotten the hang of that but I am sure I will.<br /><br />I digress....I stumbled upon the <a href="http://www.sweetaprils.com/2011/08/diaper-motorcycle-tutorial-diy-how-to.html">directions</a> for this super cute "Motorcycle Diaper Cake" and I couldn't resist making one up. The directions are so easy and it can be personalized anyway you like. Instead of ribbon to wrap the wheeles, I used a receiving blanket. It sure would make a fun conversation piece at a baby shower.<br /><br />Congrats to Tyson and Jess and your new daughter...hope you enjoy this little gift!Rebeccahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13782775874114479467noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601670687994018693.post-49645672905178976182011-10-18T15:31:00.002-04:002011-10-18T15:35:09.701-04:002nd Annual Save our Hooters Event<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeojlU19ALzAhN6E6Y3mvKeKHHOjPE79iA4J80ThtglMz8JiVi4pZLTLMM0nI2zbg93GoBNxmfA-sZ87D1WRumvZe-SemToy0S6-8p_gm-E0Hwb0MLEDBSa1RXzkWpVcf7AcmKI17qT7yM/s1600/save-the-hooters-note-cards-from-zazzle-com_1250232921024.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 143px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeojlU19ALzAhN6E6Y3mvKeKHHOjPE79iA4J80ThtglMz8JiVi4pZLTLMM0nI2zbg93GoBNxmfA-sZ87D1WRumvZe-SemToy0S6-8p_gm-E0Hwb0MLEDBSa1RXzkWpVcf7AcmKI17qT7yM/s200/save-the-hooters-note-cards-from-zazzle-com_1250232921024.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5664917917685871762" border="0" /></a><br />Please join me and your fellow crafters for a morning or afternoon of creating, crafting and raising money to fight breast cancer.

Wednesday's is the sketch challenge day. While doing my daily "stroll" I fell in love with <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2069133">THIS</a> card and totally copied it.<br />
<br />
Since this is the month you can get a FREE Big Shot by signing up to get the demo kit, I "shot" this card up. The white panel is cut with the top note die and embossed with polka dot embossing folder. The real red layer is embossed with the newest folder from the winter mini. The glimmer paper (ask me how to colour it to get any colour match!) was embossed, and then I punched out the centre to make it look like Santa's belt buckle. It may be hard to see, but the black belt is scored on either side of the ribbon for added dimension.<br />
<br />
I am on vacation this week, and am making final plans for my annual Big Event. The creative juices are flowing, and I am getting in the crafty groove! The colours of fall are in full bloom here and I think that is helping me in getting some projects completed. <br />

Give me a shout to check out all the perks of being a Demo! I hope this will help some of you take another look at the opportunity.
Remember, you don’t have to do workshops unless you want to—and
purchasing the Starter Kit does not mean you are obligated to EVER place
another order or hold and event unless you want to. Many ladies are purely in it for their own discount and the fun of having a
night with friends now and again—I started out like that, too!

</a> website has fantastic sketches, challenges, and best of all they post the dimensions. Yippee I am a happy Stamper!
I love the combo of Cherry Cobbler, very vanilla and black. The dsp is retired "newsprint". These little thank you cards are for someone who sang at a wedding, so the "note" paper was perfect.
Thanks for putting up with my sporadic posting. These were the first cards I have made since returning from Nova Scotia. However, stay tuned as I am in the midst of prepping for my annual Stamping Event.
Isn't this weather amazing? Sure hope that even though tomorrow is the first day of fall, these sunny warm days stay around.Rebeccahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13782775874114479467noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601670687994018693.post-52480178243232417622011-09-05T15:42:00.002-04:002011-09-05T15:48:26.331-04:00Score!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf6Jbh2SCXWkrz-mfqcczQtcAA8NRp16ZaqQOh2_RBf2d9B99jyaqzD8V_vWJqQJavjA2S_HNBJm4RnulY9GcGfZdl8uIygvQg6vPMqcqlZSjovsPb0A4QR_Nuh5wMU-Uqu0hc9S0wYYWd/s1600/simplyscored.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 180px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf6Jbh2SCXWkrz-mfqcczQtcAA8NRp16ZaqQOh2_RBf2d9B99jyaqzD8V_vWJqQJavjA2S_HNBJm4RnulY9GcGfZdl8uIygvQg6vPMqcqlZSjovsPb0A4QR_Nuh5wMU-Uqu0hc9S0wYYWd/s200/simplyscored.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648964729287368066" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguzX9EII9sWlZDHSwRL7erfHUI5zUeh_wPz-zLDaH_MLjw-DFfEyeAMZ17zK6sUyTGrhsUJ4RsPsnV3X9dwUbDQvUnyhU_Al46igDyodsRHEjq47w3H-6Jv63IRl9jGFqVtuVZTrdIl2zo/s1600/20110901_Holidaymini_en-US.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 132px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguzX9EII9sWlZDHSwRL7erfHUI5zUeh_wPz-zLDaH_MLjw-DFfEyeAMZ17zK6sUyTGrhsUJ4RsPsnV3X9dwUbDQvUnyhU_Al46igDyodsRHEjq47w3H-6Jv63IRl9jGFqVtuVZTrdIl2zo/s200/20110901_Holidaymini_en-US.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648964730100768194" /></a><br />Without a doubt, my new favourite "toy" is the wonderful new Simply Scored tool in the new winter mini! You must get tired of me saying this, but this new mini is THE BEST one yet! New stamps, dies, ribbon...the list goes on. Now, the details on the Simply Scored...<br /><br />Here are a few amazing features that sets it apart:<br /><br /> It has GROOVES EVERY 1/8″ – meaning you don’t have to keep taking your cardstock out of your score tool and measure with your ruler where you need to score<br /> It has an OPEN SIDE ON THE RIGHT making it easy to fit in papers that are larger than 12″ – this also allows you to easily remove your cardstock<br /> It has MOVEABLE PLACE MARKERS! And I love them! You simply pop the markers into the holes to mark where you are needing to score – this is fabulous for when you are making more than one item<br /> It has a METAL STYLUS which is double-ended so you are guaranteed to get nice crisp score lines – and unlike other brands, you never need to replace it because it is metal and will not wear down!<br /> It is sloped gently TOWARDS YOU when you work – this is a great feature that I didnt know about until I started using it<br /><br />I am still at work in Nova Scotia, today is another beautiful sunny day. We had a chance to do the Cabot Trail and go whale watching this weekend...in a word...WOW! The scenery is stunning, the weather has been lovely and I have only been a tiny bit homesick. Only 5 more sleeps till I get to kiss and hug my Hubby and 2 daughters...I am counting down the hours!Rebeccahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13782775874114479467noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601670687994018693.post-42304712464088688372011-08-27T21:26:00.002-04:002011-08-27T21:32:37.194-04:00Oh Baby<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPt-o4qRHHXCWvzq2o9adrn104262v9VtY5tCeAYNKDHk_aFwPuwPTTVsM7ZOY3znYZTxdXHZ8vMk683LCBHkIN-gQTEq3A35BvZhE035O1jB5T7Vu8jRGkiiY9DJX9N4BN1mizYr_SEzN/s1600/003.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPt-o4qRHHXCWvzq2o9adrn104262v9VtY5tCeAYNKDHk_aFwPuwPTTVsM7ZOY3znYZTxdXHZ8vMk683LCBHkIN-gQTEq3A35BvZhE035O1jB5T7Vu8jRGkiiY9DJX9N4BN1mizYr_SEzN/s200/003.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5645713577562249378" /></a>
<br />Not to worry "Fans" I haven't left the country....but I am in Nova Scotia for 3 weeks doing some training for the Bank I work for. Today we took a tour of the Cabot Trail, had lunch at the Red Shoe Inn and enjoyed the best hamburger I have ever eaten...not kidding. It is owned by the Rankin Sisters and was so great!
<br />
<br />Here is a card I made for Jen and Bobby, who are expecting their first child....lots of punches and of course, totally copied from someone on the internet....
<br />
<br />We are bracing here for Hurricane Irene....we talked to a Lobster Fisherman and he said they are moving all their boats to a safe harbour. He was so funny, we told him we were going to drive part of the Cabot Trail and he said "Holy moley and Jesus!"
<br />
<br />Hope the weather back home is as nice as it was here today, 27 and sun, sun, sun...let's hope Irene doesn't make landfall!

The box is actually made with the fancy favour die for the big shot. Tracey's directions include all the measurements and directions to turn the favour into a great gift box.<br /><br />The fun little 3x3 cards are stamped with my newest stampset, Button Buddies. This set was free for me, as I earned it during Salebration!. <br /><br />Enjoy your day.
