This past week I've been working on two crafting projects. Here's a look at them.

Stamp Club homework from the sketch:

I ended up making two birthday cards, one for my mom and one for my grandpa. They share a birthday! I dug through my ribbon and washi box and pulled out the scrap of blue ribbon and my new gold glitter tape. Then I riffled through my scrap box to find papers that would coordinate. I love how they came out! I'm especially excited about creating a masculine card that doesn't have a sports, fishing, hunting, or outdoors theme to it.

Utter fail! I sent these cards before I actually took pictures of them! Oh well. Here are my supply lists, just in case you wanted to know...

Supplies:

Stamps: Up, Up Up in the Air (sentiment)
Inks: Cherry Cobbler
Cardstock: Retired SU DSP, paper scraps

Valentine's Day/Love and Mother's Day OSW sets:

I grabbed this sketch from InkyPinkies and went to town cutting two 12x12 DSP sheets. Once I got them cut, I started pairing pieces to card bases. Unfortunately, I realized that the pieces cut would not make 12 complete cards. I would have to add other DSP pieces or something else. Obviously if you look at her examples, she used other paper pieces to complete the cards. Oh well. I just combined the paper to make 8 cards for each set. Then, I cut some more DSP from full sheets to add layers and embellishments to make 12 cards for each set. After making one complete set, I talked to my mom who requested I send a batch of Mother's Day cards for the shop. So I actually made two Love sets and two Mother's Day sets. Crazy crazy... but they do look great.
