Travel Cup with Photo Insert

I just wanted to take a few minutes to show off my Travel Cup with the Photo Insert I made with my Storybook Creator.  I love it cause I can take and resue it when I go to Starbucks!!  Plus I love that my pictures and pretty paper on it!  I can chage it and make a new insert whenever I want!!  I know that I have said it before on here but I LOVE my Storybook Creator!!  You can do so much with it :)

I'm linking my picture to K.Andrew at Getting Cricky reuse challenge. She is giving away her stamps. Stop by and join the fun

Have a good day!!

Tumblers decorated with vinyl

I have been wanting to try this for a few months now with these tumblers.  This weekend we found the right tumblers to decorate.  I got 3 and made them to go along with the scrapbooks I put together for the kids end of year teacher gifts.    I'm so excited for the kids to take them to school this week.  Hope you enjoy the pictures!!

HIMCR #50 Technique: Heat Embossing

I had so much fun this week making my card!  I got to go over and craft with my DT sister AJ and Amy from Scrap This, Save That.  I made a few other cards this week and I'm starting my kids teacher's end of the year gifts now.  They both want scrapbooks for their teachers. I have one book almost done and one to go.  My plans for today are to stay home and scrap all day!! 

This week challenge is Techique: Embossing Powder!!  I had so much fun with this card.  I hadn't used embossing powder in forever!!  It works so much better with my new heat gun.

I used my new CTMH stamp set Life is Tweet!

I embossed the bird on a seperae piece of paper and cut it out and attached it with a piece of foam tape.  The edge and how tweet of you are embossed right on the card.  I stamp the tree branch on the card in chocolate in and chalk the edges and some of the front of the card in chocolate also. 

I'm not sure what the name of my embossing powder is but do remember getting it from Joann's last summer in a big package.

Now it's time to check out my DT sister's creations!

One more Father's Day Card

I finally finished all my Father's Day cards with the help from my daughter.  She helped me emboss paper and stamp my tools for Opa. The most excited part is I even got my Dad's in the mail along with new pictures of the kids to the Grandma for late Mother's Day presents.  May is just a busy month for us.  My daughter's birthday was just a few days after Mother's Day and my son's birthday is 3 days later.  So I feel caught up for the time being!! 

This is the Father's day card I made for the kids to give to Opa. He is their adopted Grandpa. We lived just 2 house down from therm and they are great to the kids and us.  

I also thought this was a great card to enter in Creative Cutter Room Challenge today.

The tool bench is cut from Silhouette Cameo and the tool stamps are from Technique Tuesday Tool Time.

Happy Father's Day

I have had these little Father's Day stamps sets on my desk for weeks.  This morning I was inspired to use them for a challenge at Pink By Design weekly challenge called Ink it Pink.  It is to use words in your background.  I thought this paper and stamp sets worked well together. 

Here is a the piece I stamped for the background paper of words before I cut it and ink the edges.

Stamp sets are the little sets you get from Joann's in the $1 bin.

CTMH Topiary, Citrus Leaf, Pondersoa Pine, and Chocolate.

Green paper is from a DCVW stack I have from a few years ago.
