50th Wedding Anniversary Idea for Fellow Crafter

DDs Crafts was looking for an idea for a 50th Wedding Anniversary invitation.  So, I came up with this simple but elegant card.  I am sure she wants something that is easy enough to make several, but something that still looks timeless, like the love of a couple who has been together for 50 years!  Congrats to the lucky couple :)



The vellum, would have the printed information about the event.
The rings were done w/ a stamp by American Crafts, and then heat embossed with Gold Metallic, embossing powder.
The vellum can be ribbon punched, for whatever color ribbon you want...I had a white with gold flecks in it!

Hope this is helps a little :)

Shabby Chic Embossing Technique

Hi everyone! Hope you are having a great Saturday!  Here is the video from my friend Katie, and I last night.  Remember, Katie is a new scrapper-- and is learning new things every day!

She learned the fun of heat embossing, background stamps and resist images last night--to create a very SHABBY CHIC look.  She made these 2 cards for a wedding and a baby that are due this summer!

Leave a comment to tell Katie how great she did!! :)

Snap, Crackle, Pop

First of all, I wanted to share a comment from DCWV on my black and white baby layout:



DCWV Inc. : 
Love your monogram pages!! The Alphabet Stack is a classic in my opinion, love all of the colors you can put with the black & white! Thanks for sharing!

Not a huge deal, but it did make me smile :)

Today's card might be a little early- but, I then again is it ever too early to celebrate our independence? ;)

Again, I didn't use the cricut- I just went stamp and emboss happy!  In this video, I do show you a couple fun techniques- :) I'll give you a sneak read at what I will show you in the video:

One thing I will show you, is a way to fold an ordinary card, that really transforms it into something fresh and fun, and another thing I will show you,  is a flirty little stamping technique- called "kissing."  

Recipe:
Stamps
Red and Blue Ink
Embossing Ink
Blue embossing powder

Versamark Emboss/Resist Card

The weekend went quickly, but I did get some craft shopping in, which I will share in my first Haul video, a little later today!

No Cricut Cutting today-- just stamps, embossing powder, heat gun, and ink :)
Even though a lot of us have an embossing machine, or at least a rolling pin to emboss, ( go here if you have no idea what the rolling pin means )--it is sometimes fun to go back to the powder way of embossing!

Today's card is very simplistic- because I wanted to concentrate on the technique, but, sometimes simple is better.



Recipe:
Brown pre-made card
Clear Embossing Powder
Stamps
Ribbon
Heat Gun
Versamark ink
Olive & Honey colored ink
