Cute Birthday cards for summer....

My friend Lindsay came over tuesday and I've officially initiated her in the ways of the scrapper. We made three cards and we ran the gamut of embossing, daubing/stippling, blending, etc. Everything turned out beatifully so i've high hopes for her future projects. We remade three cards from my collection, here are the two I did.

Last time I was at Winner's trolling for deals I came across some little boxes of notecards in the clearance section. There's cards and/or envelopes missing from each set i got but for the $3 i spent on each, it really doesn't matter to me. I love teeny little cards, these ones aren't very teeny they're about 5x 3 /34 in but they're cute for sure. I used embossing powder and microbeads as embellishments on the black and white ones.

I got my new punches and inks from the Stampin Up! party we had a few weeks back. I *love* my eyelet border punch, but i expected as much. I went to Michaels and bought myself a xyron which is AWESOME! i've had my eye on the sticker maker for a while (soo much easier for ribbons) and they had a kit that came with the sticker maker, two refills for it, then a tape runner with three refills for that (at $6.50 a piece individually, this makes me very very happy) and a roll of double sided photo tape. The kit was $40 but since i had a 50% off coupon for Michaels, i paid $20. Best. deal. ever. ... More photos to come soon
