Color & Contour

Thursday, March 28, 2024

Now that the Last Chance List is out, I want to start featuring products that are on the Last Chance List so that you can get a taste of what you might want to grab before it's too late.

This sweet card is a different size at 3" x 6". Yes, this is a mailable size, and I also made envelopes for them to use since this is slightly longer than our standard A2 size.

So what is retiring? COLOR & CONTOUR Stamp Set, SCALLOPED CONTOUR DIES & (sadly) the BASIC BORDERS DIES. Also... the "happy birthday" comes from DAYS TO REMEMBER, and that is on the LAST CHANCE LIST too.

The designer paper is a retired print I pulled from my stash because I wanted a petal pink stripe design.

Inspired by Mary

Barrel of Monkeys

Tuesday, July 4, 2023

Today is our grandson, Sawyer's 9th birthday.

Some of you have asked how he is doing with his XP. (Xeroderma Pigmentosum)

You may remember the fund raiser we held for his care several years ago.

Well, Sawyer is doing great! he will NEVER be without this condition, but he handles his differences so well.

It's probably harder for us to see that he has to miss out on the basics of childhood - running through a sprinkler, going to the beach, going in and out of doors without having to cover himself up with all that protective gear, but he is a trooper.

He needs to have regular eye exams and skin testing

And he recently got new shoes and braces for his legs

But today is a special day! Sawyer turns 9 years old!!

We take the grandkids out for a birthday dinner, and then let them pick out their own gift from a local store. Sawyer really wanted a new pair of slippers, but I also couldn't resist buying him a Barrel Of Monkeys because of how much he loves Curious George.

I made him this slim line card for his birthday inspired by Jessica Lewis

The finished size of this slimline card measures 8-1/2" x 3-1/2"

The original card used the "little" "little" "little" "Little Monkey" from the LITTLE MONKEYS stamp set but I chose to use the "happy" "happy" "happy" "Happy Birthday" from DAYS TO REMEMBER stamp set.

Zany Zoo

Monday, May 29, 2023

Two more ZOO CREW cards

I think that this little singing turtle is my favorite of all the critters included with the Zoo Crew Designer Paper and there is also a stamp so you can stamp as many turtles as you like - you can even make a full worship team or choir!!

I should've made this card for our son, Jeff, who is celebrating his 42nd birthday today. He has a fantastic voice and I can't wait to have him join our worship team at church. The gals will be making this card at a future Tuesday class.

Since I haven't purchased the Zany Zoo Stamp Set (yet) I made do with notes from the retired MUSIC FROM THE HEART. The color scheme is Berry Burst - a returning favorite in color, and I used the BIGGEST WISH Stamp Set for the "Happy Birthday". The vellum circle is punched from the 2" circle punch. This card was inspired by Brian King. The size of the card is a smaller thin card that measures 5-1/2" x 3-1/2"

This is a new fun fold card that I haven't made before. It's super fun and surprisingly easy. It is called an accordion card and I followed the instructions from Tami White

I really liked how she cut out the little koala who is juggling some cupcakes. I changed up the little balloons (using a balloon die that I had on hand), the "happy birthday" sentiment is from DAYS TO REMEMBER and the greeting on the Basic White is from SWEET SONGBIRDS

This card will also be featured at a future Tuesday class.

If you live in my area (Hudsonville Michigan), I would love to have you join in on the stamping fun every Tuesday.

Feeling Zany!

Sunday, May 28, 2023

Yesterday I had an MRI on my back - sure hoping they can find what is still continuing to cause me pain ever since our card accident in 2021. Now it's a waiting game until the Dr. can read it and let me know.

In the meantime I want to share some cards that I have been making with the ZOO CREW Designer Paper. The cool part of this paper is that it is printed with darling little animals on one side and then Black & White on the opposite side with a variety of designs.

This designer paper coordinates with the Zany Zoo Stamp Set and Dies

The dies will also fit perfectly to cut out some of the animals from the designer paper, and there are some great "bonus" dies in there too.

Here are two of the cards that I made using just the designer paper as my focus...

This is a perfect card to send to your camping buddies, and I just love that little skunk! This card was inspired by Amy Koenders. I changed up the sentiment using DAYS TO REMEMBER, and I used STYLISH SHAPES dies and Layering Circles in Lemon Lime Twist (a retiring favorite color) and Basic Black.

Each piece is cut 1" wide and layered onto a piece of Basic Black. to stretch my Designer Paper I made my card 4" x 5-1/2"

This fun card with the sloth doing yoga is super simple and the gals will be making this card at tomorrow's class. It was inspired by Ronda Griffin. I changed it up by embossing the Petal Pink front, adding layers of circles behind the sloth and I added some Pool Party highlights.
