Happy Totality Birthday

 In honor of my son's birthday coinciding with the Total Eclipse, I decided to create a birthday card commemorating both...even though we don't live in a state where it can be viewed this time around...

I used the stamp set Inventor 7 and the Gauge Frames by Tim Holtz. I also used an old Dymo Label Maker to create the date, and a retired Stampin'Up set, It's Your Birthday. I used a small circle punch, also Stampin'Up to create the sun.

 So unfortunate that Skipping Stones Design went out of business...they had some fun stamp sets!

Magical Birthday

 

I decided to play along with the challenge:Simon Says: We Can See Clearly.

I stamped the Tim Holtz Mini Blueprint image on a piece of clear transparency using Staz On black ink, then stamped and colored the same image on some white card stock, lining up the images to create the 'magic' when a white tag is inserted between the two. 

I like this technique and will probably use it soon for my granddaughter, for now she can play with this one for her Dad!

Googly Trick or Treat

For most holidays I try to make the grandkids a card with some type of treat, this time it's Googly Eyes! When my six year old granddaughter was here a couple summers ago, we took her to the fish farm and she was allowed to pick out a prize...she chose some Googly Eye Glasses...

 

Cambria is into art, when she was here this summer, she LOVED the Ink Blending Tool! So for her birthday this year I thought I would set her up with a little kit for ink blending. Here are just a few of the goodies I ordered recently from The Funkie Junkie Boutique. In fact, the ribbon on the release tag came from a little thank you freebie which accompanied my order...so sweet!

Thanks for stopping by!
