HOOT HOOT!!


Hi all!!
As promised I have a card to share with you. This is a card we did in club and I just think he is the cutest. My upline did a sample card and cut all the pieces and left the design up to us!! I used the numbers for the year my Dad was born and wanted to give this to him as his birthday card. The other 5 ladies all did something different, they used the numbers to make 2010 or 2014 (one of the ladies son's graduates from one of the service academy's that year) or 2001 (I think this was a boo boo but it was too cute, so I think she was going to use as an anniversary card). It was really cool to see the different ideas that all of us came up with for the same supplies!! Here are the details for my card:
Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Tempting Turquoise. Real Red , Old Olive, Crumb Cake
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Stamp Sets: Party Hearty (pg. 54) for the greeting
Accessories: Play Date DSP (pg. 175), Word Window punch (pg. 203), Owl Punch (pg. 201), Two-Step Bird Punch (Pg. 202) for the vine, Snail adhesive (pg. 197) and Multipurpose Liquid Glue (pg. 197), Paper Snips (pg. 199).
My Dad really liked the card so it was a success!!! I can tell you that while I thought the owl was really cute I wasn't going to buy him right away, but after doing this card, I came home and placed an order for the punch and this DSP!! Well I had better run, I have lots to do to prepare for my first Christmas Card Stamp a Stack this weekend!! I am really looking forward to it, we are making 24 cards for $30!! I will have pictures after Saturday for you to see!! Have a great Tuesday and I will have another card for you tomorrow!!
TTFN,
Candi
