Stamp Camp Card #3

Hi there and happy Wednesday!  You know what that means - stamping with my peeps day!  But first, here is another Camp card from this past weekend.

Stamps: Bring on the Cake (W-121899, C-121958)

Paper: Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Black, Mocha Morning Specialty DSP (122366 - avail until May 31, 2012)

Ink: Black

Tools:  1-1/4” square punch (to nip out tail on flag), 1/8" hole punch or poker tool

Other:  Black brads, template for brad placement, pencil

Inspiration: Mary Fish     http://www.stampinpretty.com

A little tip to make a template to evenly space your brads.  Cut a piece of copy paper the same size as the card stock that will have the brads.  Fold copy paper in half to get the center point.  Then measure equal distances  on each side of the center point - in this case it was 3/4" and make a mark.  Punch holes where marked.  Now use the copy paper template to transfer markings onto a piece of scrap card stock and punch the holes.  Voila! You now have a more durable template to equally space those brads.

Must run.  Have a wonderful day and thanks for checking my blog today!

Fifth Avenue Floral

Hi there!  Hope your week is going well.  It's been a busy one for me.  Seems like they all are busy lately.  Well, I'll be chillin' come Thu!  lol
Today I am sharing a card with you that I received from Carolyn Gray, one of my TX friends.  I have had the Fifth Ave Floral stamp set a long time and don't recall ever using it.  Just didn't know what to do with it.  Do you have stamps like that?   I love how Carolyn used the stamps in a unique way (and her color combination) with the Mocha Morning Specialty paper.  Such a sweetie to think of me, too!  Thanks, Carolyn!!!

Finished the Aug thank you note cards that I include with each customer's order.  So that's one more item crossed off the To Do list!  Must run ... lots to do before picking up the granddaughter for an overnight visit.  Thanks for stopping in today and Happy Stampin'!
