ok.......so what did I use these tools for? Scroll down to see the fun 1st birthday card I created last week for my grandaughter GEMMA MAE whislt I have been away from home....crafting in EAST GIPPSLAND....
I purchased a few sheets of this paper from Art Stamps Australia last weekend at PAPERIFIC in MELBOURNE.....just because it looked so pretty and I wanted to play with it......know the feeling....LOL!
I then found my Stampin Up Ink Pads......and decided I would create a fun Card for Gemma for her 1st birthday coming up on September 17th. I also used my trusty Fiskars Microtip Scissors to cut out this cute cat.....putting some 3-D adhesive underneath.
.......and here is the final Card..........I must admit I loved creating this for GEMMA.....
REMEMBER those cute OWLS that I purchased at PAPERIFIC.....well I used one on here as well...along with some Kaisercraft bling and a cute little bird sticker I found in my stash.
Can you see where I used the Fiskars Interchangeable Starter Set punch - DAISY CHAIN ?
I punched along the edge of the card....and then using my Fiskars Microtip Scissors to cut out the pieces in between the flowers.......
I then inked over all the punched flowers with my Stampin Up Melon Mambo Ink Pad.
I'll be back later in the week with the birthday card I have made for SAMUEL....Gemma's brother...my grandson...who turns 3 September 21st.
