Another quick card

I love embossing folders I used the same folder to emboss both the yellow and blue then I layer the two pieces over the top of each other being careful to line up the design. I used papertreys button bits set to make the cute bird and sentiment. I love the way the card turned out. So simple and easy.

Corner rounder or scalloped boarder?

First I would like to apologize that the picture makes me look a bit crazy. However its important to scrapbook pictures of yourself once in a while. This is just a quick layout but what I wanted to show you was the scalloped boarder at the top. I made this with my corner rounder. I will post a tutorial of how to do this soon. I really think that the Ek Success corner rounder is one of the best purchases in a punch. It is pretty inexpensive and it will round your corners and give you a scalloped edge.

A quick stamp tip

I used my copics to color the stamped image and try to get some dimension in the topiary. After the card was all put together I thought the image needed a bit more, I found the ribbon in my stash and added the bow.

Tip: bend your clear stamps around the block to stamp inside a circle.

Teacher Card

With the scraps from my "back to school" layout I made a quick card while I had everything out. It was very easy to use the scraps and grab some stamps for a quick "hello teacher". I had my son write a note to his teacher about the things he was looking forward too for the year.

Tip: When you finish a page use your leftovers to make a quick card before cleaning up. This way you will have a nice stash of cards to choose from. Plus you already have all of the matching embellishment's out and ready to go.

Supplies Used: Card stock, from my stash. Patterned Paper, ki memories School Days. Stamps, papertrey ink, Limitless Labels and Mega mixed messages. Apple sticker, unknown.
