A Wedding Card, Staches and a Reminder...

If you are here looking for my "Anything But a Card" House-Mouse Project, scroll down one post or click HERE to go directly there.

I'll be back soon with a House-Mouse Challenge Reminder project, but for now, I wanted to show you a couple of cards that I recently created but havent yet posted here... 

First,  A fast CAS - (clean and simple) Wedding Card

I created this card for the SCS Featured Stamper challenge in which you are CASE-ing the stamper's work by following the same ideas but changing a few things on the design to make it your own. You can view the card that inspired me HERE.

Stamps: Stampin' Up! sentiment

Paper: Textured Black CS, Shimmery Cream CS & Pre-cut Lace invite sheet

Paper Size: 5 & 1/2, 5 & 1/4

Ink: Black Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: Stampin' Up! Curly Labels Punch, Lg & Sm Oval Punches, Adhesive Pearls, Satin Ribbon, Frill Ribbon

Techniques: Layers

NEXT.... A "Stache" card...   My girls have been into the whole *Mustache* thing for 2 years now. Crazy! But they have great fun with it. My 10 yr old says "Stashes are "Epic"... LOL!

 

Stamps: Amy Tangerine Sentiment Stampers

Paper: DCWV Steet Lace Collection DP & Black and White CS

Paper Size: 5x6

Ink: Marvy Matchables (for sponging) & Black StazOn (for sentiment)

Accessories: XLG EK Success Mustache Punch and EK Success Border Punch, Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch, Crimper/Paper Corrugator, Darice Embossing Folder, Adhesive Black Rhinestones (from Michael's)

Techniques: Dry Embossing & Sponging (sponged edges of mustaches)

This card was created for the SCS "Ways To Use It" Challenge #WT452 - to use a mustache on your project.   I was glad to play along cuz I had this XLG Mustache Punch from EK Success that I purchased for my Mustache trend lovin' daughters and it was perfect for today's challenge. For those of you who don't have it, did you know that you can make your very own mustaches with Stampin' Up! punches and dies that you already have in your stash? I found these great youtube videos with ideas to help inspire you. Hope you will give these fun mustaches a try; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nexYD2khCek
