Hope you're all enjoying the weekend. It's "Football Saturday" at our home with a whole lotta noise going on. One son can't even sit down to watch. LOL. This morning I ran my usual errands and also picked up my Sister Stamps Release #5. Oh, they are so cute and I can't wait to ink them up.
I want to share this flap card I made for Kathy as I was her Secret Sister for this month. The theme was "Anything Goes." The die is by Sizzix which I got recently and LOVE IT!!! Can't get any easier than this. Just one piece that needs to be folded and decorated. For the front, I inked up this cute bear image by Hook, Lines & Inkers (an oldie but goodie) with Copic markers and surrounded him with flowers by Wild Orchid and Mulberry Bear. Of course, I "had to" add my little pooch by Dandelion Designs. I really like this DP by Prima Marketing because the design is not too busy. Got it at Island Scrapbooking. Other supplies: lace and fern punches by Martha Stewart, Spellbinder dies, grass stamp by Viva Las Vegasstamps, and pointed leaf punch by Punch Bunch.
I decided to put a pocket inside and tuck in a packet of carnation flower seeds. I'm glad Kathy likes the card. She said she'll plant the seeds in her garden. :-) Other supplies for the inside are: brads, edge punch by Friskar, and alphabets which my son gave me for Christmas the other year. OMG, I swear there were thousands of these itty-bitty alphabets that I took me several hours to sort by size. Well worth the time though. Now they're organized. YAY!!!
And here's a pix of the seed packet removed from the pocket.
