Snowflake Punch Card

Kim.Scheerer@gmail.com (Kim Scheerer) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:49:00 +0000

Here is a card that I had my girls make in my last workshop using the snowflake punch and shimmer paint. I had them punch out the snow flake image, keeping the reverse image to stencil the snowflake with the Shimmer paint right on the whisper white card stock. I also sponged on shimmer paint on the Bashful Blue snowflakes before gluing them on.

Inside the card!

Happy Birthday

I wanted to share today with you this card that I made for a friend. I used this cool technique where you stamp the image on one side of a window sheet and fill in the image using a silver, orange and blue marker on the other side. Super easy and lots of fun!

Ashton's 4th Birthday

Kim.Scheerer@gmail.com (Kim Scheerer) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 15:16:00 +0000

After convention I went straight into my son's birthday party, it was last month and I still can't believe he is 4!

Ashton wanted a Power Miner Lego Party so here is the cake that I made for him, it was my first attempt at fondant. He also only wanted 3 candles, because he was 3 years old and he wanted 4 rock monsters because he was turning 4 years old.

He decided that he wanted to have a cupcake like everyone else...fondant is really sweet.

A long time....

Kim.Scheerer@gmail.com (Kim Scheerer) — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:39:00 +0000

3-D Lego Birthday invite

Kim.Scheerer@gmail.com (Kim Scheerer) — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 18:48:00 +0000

My son who is a Lego fanatic wants to have a Power Miner's Lego Birthday Party. So even though his birthday is not until August I thought I would get a jump on them, because this summer is so busy I wasn't sure I would have time right before his birthday to put them together.

I used the Pop template that was in July's Stampin' Success Magazine, which is totally simple! My son picked out some images on Lego.com, did a little editing and cropping to get just the right pictures.

Here is the front, I used Tangerine Tango, Basic Black card stock, and I used the word window punch for the "you're invited" that I printed out on my computer.

In order to hold the card closed I used self adhesive magnetic dots that I got at a Teacher Supply Store.

Here you can see the placement of the magnets.

Here is how it looks when start to you open it up. On the inside right panel you will notice that I only used adhesive on the top diagonal so that the picture in side did not have a crease.

In order to keep the right panel open I used the magnets again.

And here is the invite when it is completely open!

Ribbon Heart!

Kim.Scheerer@gmail.com (Kim Scheerer) — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 00:05:00 +0000

I just love this card! A week ago at Jennifer's (my upline) Monthly Technique workshop we made this card. Super easy and very cute!
