More Baby Tees


Still playing with the Baby Tees. Decided I had to make some in pink too. The top one has the itty bitty buttons with punched white flowers behind them. The bottom one was embossed with the square lattice embossing folder after I colored it. It has a wonderful textured look.
The pink square behind each tee started as a 3" square. Then I punched each side one time with the eyelet border punch by centering the punch on each side. Cool, uh?

Baby Tee

Baja Breeze and Whisper White. Image is stamped on Shimmery White and colored with my aqua painter and ink. I use So Saffron and Regal Rose on the elephant.


Still playing with my new goodies. I love summertime when I am home and have no schedule to follow and have time to stamp!!!! Now don't gasp when you see what I did to my new Baby Tees wheel. I knew that this is what I would do to it when I ordered it! A friend of mine told me she does this to all her wheels....she turns them into stamps. And this is one wheel that I knew I would want to do that to. I found the seam on the rubber and peeled it off the wheel. Then I cut between each baby tee. I sprayed the back of each piece with stencil adhesive (because that is what was handy) and stored them in an empty clear case. Worked like a charm.

I am so sorry that is has been like forever since I last posted. When school ended, I HAD to spend some time cleaning house, especially my stamping space. I am happy to say that I have made quite alot of progress although there is still lots more to do. However, when my preorder for the new Stampin' Up! catalog arrived last week, I had to find time to play with my new toys.

Elements of Style in Black and White

This is my swap for the demonstrators meeting today. I used the Elements of Style and In a Word sets from the new summer mini.

Coconut Drink Card


This is a retirement card for a co-worker at school. The theme was tropical. I used the big shot to cut a 4" circle from Chocolate chip and white cardstock. Next I put the chocolate chip through the square lattice embossing folder. Then I cut the top of both circles. I used the Punched Posies (hostess set from the Summer mini) and the five petal punch to make the flowers. The flower and straw are attached to the coconut with the rhinestone brad. The paper is Island Oasis. This is a big card...a full piece of cardstock folded in half.
