New grandbaby

 This card was for stamping friend and hubby that that had a new grandbaby boy

 Started this card by grabbing a scrap of Accent Opaque Digital International Paper 80 lb. cover smooth white cardstock stamped the image from a little wild stamp set by SU with Memento tuxedo black ink then colored with Copic markers then restamped with VersaFine Clair nocturne ink then punched it with 2-1/4” circle by EK Success and mounted on 4 scrap black circles I had. Cut from a baby paper I had in my stash for my layer and decided to mount on a die cut layer of Recollections 110 lb. black cardstock with Cindy Echtinaw Designs Card Creator Perfect Layers A and mounted to an A2 card base of Recollections 110 lb. white cardstock

Happy 27th Anniversary

Today Bret & I are celebrating our 27^th anniversary. For his card I was going to do one of the Sunday Tip or Techniques which was quad pilar tutorial by Iced Images but first couldn’t find in my stash acetate steady enough then decided I should find what to put on the acetate first and by the time I did, I had picked butterfly aperture by Elizabeth Craft Design so didn't like how it looked split so changed my card similar to a double column card at Sam Calcott at Mixed Up Crafts. I made my columns with scraps of Recollections 110 lb. white cardstock cover with Recollections 65 lb. textured red cardstock, for the butterfly I die cut 2 with glitter cardstock from one of those 12x12 packs by Recollections. For the message used elegant occasion sentiments hot foil plate & die by Spellbinders with glimmer foil variety pack that has gold, silver, green & red; die cut 3 layers from scraps and 1 of accents where I did the red foiling for the front and then another 4 layers for the back where for my tiny personal message, not a lot of space but I don’t write much LOL the rhinestones are from say it in crystals by Prima Marketing Inc
