My friend and Stampin' Up lady, Lynne had a card making party tonight and invited me :)
The theme of the night was using up your scraps.
Now I know we can all use a little paper scrap usage ;)
So what we did was use the negative part of a die and filled it in with strips of various pattern paper that were in her stash.
Here are all the ladies cards. I love how all of us used the same materials but each of us made a different card.
I forgot my camera at home, so Denise was kind enough to take this photo and email it to me.
Thank you Denise :)
As I had mentioned yesterday I had to make a run for the border. It was a PD day here, so Kristy didn't have school, but she wanted to still go to her Co-op placement.
So we waited until she was finished at noon. Then Sharon, Heather, Kristy and I went. We enjoyed some lunch and I picked up my packages.
One of them had this little cutie in it.
Ohh your thinking I bought it, and I am suppose to be on a spending freeze.
But nope, Pea sent it to me. Isn't she a sweetie :)
This is my first Gorjuss girl stamp. I tell you once this spending freeze is over I am so going to be buying me some more of these cuties :)
Onto My Day:
I was surprised this morning when Wayne comes in the door from work. He never comes home during the day. Then he starts taking off his work boots, like hes planning on staying.
Turns out he had some paper work to do. Which he is still working on I might add.
I am planning on getting into my craft/scrap room tomorrow and tidying it up...well at least the desk anyway ;) I am hoping to create, and maybe colour a few images. Can you guess which one I am going to start with ;)
Hope you all had a creative Friday :)
Tracy :)

ReplyDeleteYour new stamp is so sweet! Is gojus the name of the stamp line?
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to use the scraps as strips in a negative; i am going to have to try that!
Beautiful stamp and I love your cards - great use of the negative space. My craft room is getting unenterable so I think I need to tidy up a little too :D
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for using what is left over from a die cut. TFS!
ReplyDeleteHi Tracy, I tried to join your site but the follow button did not work. Just wondering if it's on my end or yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lorraine

What a fun Friday night! I love all of your cards :) So, SO sweet of Pea to send you that stamp! I love it and can't wait to see how it looks when you use it! Good luck getting your room/desk picked up. I just finished making a couple of things in my room this morning. I have a few more things to get done tomorrow, after I get home :)

What a cute idea for a die cut on a card! I just designed a card in my Cricut program that has an opening and this would be perfect! I've seen it before, just never think of doing it.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a fun day with the girls... that sure is a cute stamp ~ and how sweet is the spelling of the stamp company's name?!!
