I’m All About That Face
This is the card that inspired the August calendar for the 2015 Calendar Project. When I saw that face in the Ray of Sunshine stamp set, I knew I had to have it. When I saw Justin Krieger's card made with this stamp set, I had to make it. I used the Scallop Circle Punch to create the Sun:
- Punch out the shape first with the Scallop Circle Punch
- Attach a strip of light-weight paper to it (I call the fish line technique). Use the strip of paper as a guide to hold and reposition your shape
- Insert the scallop back into the punch
- Offset the design half way between the scallops and re-punch
Retro Valentine
I am considering this card to be the perfect Valentine. OK so it’s not the typical red & white with hearts all over. It’s however extremely bright and cheerful with a sentiment that allows one to pause for a moment to reflect on the meaningful foundation of a relationship. What better way to recognize someone special in your life with a fantastic card. So….give the Retro Valentine and hope for chocolate in return.
