Challenges:
Creative Scrappers Sketch #85

I came home tonight and needed some down time so for my relaxation I made this card. I used the distressing tool to rough up the edges of the stamped image and I really like the look in combination with the frayed fabric strips.

It’s a Girl Card

Wendy — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 02:01:54 +0000

This time it’s a baby card made from my stash. The only thing I can tell you is that the vellum “It’s a Girl” sticker is Bo Bunny. I’m happier with this one but that could be because it’s pink. I used my CTMH Distressing tool to rough up the edges of the white square in the center.

Challenges:
Charisma Cardz – Challenge #28
Caardvarks – baby card
Scrapping Out Loud – So Distressed Out
Creative Inspirations – Distressing

Como Park

Wendy — Fri, 15 May 2009 05:00:25 +0000

These layouts are from pictures taken in the flower garden at Como Park in St. Paul, MN. They also have a zoo and a great amusement park (Como Town) for kids. I highly recommend checking this out if you are visiting the area and would also suggest signing up for their newsletter prior to your visit to watch for specials. My kids (ages 7 & 9 at the time) had a blast!

Supplies used: CTMH Whoops-A-Daisy paper, CTMH Watermelon, White Daisy, and Hydrangea cardstock, Pressed Petals Chip Chatter letters (sanded), fasteners, and gemstone brads from the Target Dollar Spot. Layouts were inspired by sketches from the CTMH Cherish book.

Distressing Chipboard – Play

Wendy — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 11:58:48 +0000

Sanding chipboard is a fun, easy, and fool-proof technique. These chipboard letters by Pressed Petals came pre-colored and included a sanding stick. All I had to do was rub the stick back and forth around the edges of the letters to remove some of the pink color and reveal the white. It’s a nice distressed look.

Supplies used: CTMH Whoops-A-Daisy paper, CTMH White Daisy, and cardstock, Pressed Petals Chip Chatter letters (sanded), garage sale flowers, EK Success fasteners, and gemstone brads from the Target Dollar Spot. Layouts inspired by sketches from Cherish by CTMH.
