Hello Friend Card

Here is another of our recent Stamp-a-Stack cards.  It was inspired by a swap I saw at convention a year ago.  I didn't own this set, My Friend, until that convention but there were so many great cards made with it that I came home and had to order it.  I hadn't used it for awhile so felt like a new set to everyone.

Grid Technique

We made this card at stamp club this month using the new Simply Scored.  I have wanted to try it before, but it seemed pretty tedious with the scoring blade on my paper cutter.  Well thanks to my Simply Scored, this one was a breeze.  I bought 1 extra package of markers and once I figured out the placement, I did several pretty quickly using the marked scoring tracks.  You should do all of the scoring first and then I sponged, stamped the background stamp and then stamped over all of it was a darker blue.  I can imagine this technique with fall leaves and colors next!

Just for fun, I did a little different fold for this one.

Hello Yo-Yo Flower

This was a fun card to make.  The scallop dots ribbon has holes in it so it was easy to run the needle and thread in and out of the holes, gather it, knot it and put a brad through the middle to hide all of the stiches.  Once again I am using my new set, My Friend, for this simple little card.  I used about 4 inches of ribbon.

Hello

I absolutely love this swirly hello.  In fact, I love it so much, I bought a stamp set I didn't own and didn't think I needed to own.  My Friend was a set we could pre-order in June so many demonstrators used it for their swaps and this pink and yellow card is very close to a sample on the display board at convention.  So once again, seeing a set in use has won me over.
