Rose Embossing Folder and Foil Love | DT project by Tarina Lafollette

Hello Everyone!

It was so hard to decide on this one!

I started to make today's card idea in the Bashful(pink) color, with plans of #HAPPY and 'Birthday' on the inside. Of course, midway through, I decided this card could be done in so many different ways, I had to try a few more of them! lol

Besides changing the cardstock/ink colors, you could change up the embossing folder, or even use a patterned paper instead. You could change up the words at the bottom to suit your event, and if you wanted a longer word like Blessed, you could turn the card on it's side and do the same style.

I changed up the color of the foil, gold for the Bashful and Sapphire, and silver for the White Daisy, but you could even change out the foil for an embossing powder of your choice.

Miss You- Cardmaking kit Dress-Up Part 4 | DT by Tarina Lafollette

Hello All!

Last week I did a total wardrobe change on card project #2, so today I'm bringing you project #1 with a wardrobe change as well. I know it's backwards, lol but that's just how my inspiration struck.

For this one I continued to work with the No Worries collection, but I changed up the sentiment to 'Have a sweet birthday!' which is found in the Sweet Birthday stampset. Enjoying the beach would definitely be a sweet birthday for me! I stamped the sentiment in Sapphire ink, which is the same dark blue color found on the bottom of the palm trees.

The background pieces were just begging to be distressed again, so I gave in, lol and I popped the palm trees up on 3D Foam Tape. The trees and the starfish both came in the No Worries Compliments pack. Instead of the shimmer trim that is used in the WYW guide, I used the White Burlap ribbon that came in the No Worries- WYW scrapbooking kit, but I decided it needed two pieces instead of one. The sequins also come in the kit and I love how they balanced out the kraft color of the starfish as well as the light color of the burlap ribbon. It needed just a little extra something, so I pulled a Bitty Sparkle in to make my group of three on the right of the sentiment.

And that's it!

Was it quick?
Not really, lol
My process video (which was literally from start to finish) took about 45 mins.

Do I like how it turned out?
I love how it turned out! lol
And it inspired me to use this cutting guide again....Next time it won't be for cards though, I promise! ;)

Here's the Recipe

I didn't think quick enough to get a pic before Laurie and Jean left.

My granddaughters, Mary and Hailey helped hand out przes and gathered the silent auction bids. We had several members of our Auxiliary making and serving food.  Pizza for lunch and a Baked Potato bar for dinner.   

Last year we raised $431.00 for our Veterans, Military members and their families.  And filled a 35 gallon barrell with personal hygiene products. You could help up raise even more this year.
