My friend, Jill, is having a boy and I of course couldn’t resist making a blanket for him. And then had to make a tag to attached to the blanket once it was ribbon wrapped. It was a nautical themed baby shower so I followed the theme, however I wish I would have had some blue papers on hand instead of the greens, but it still turned out great using SCAL for all pieces.
K has dance on Monday’s and it just so happens that V day falls on a Monday this year, so we made some cards with suckers for the other little girls in her class and her teacher. We had fun with these. I used SCAL for the card shape and the slits for her to insert the suckers into. I used my Create A Critter cartridge for the little bee and a rubber stamp for the “B mine” and some heart ribbon I got in the $1 bins over at Michaels earlier in the day.
I seen a couple people in a few of my yahoo crafting groups talking about the newer feature of Print & Cut from SCAL for our E’s, so I thought I would give it try. After trying a few different ways that others have posted, I finally figured it out and it turned out pretty good. K has claimed this “love bug” as her own now.
I have girlfriend whose daughter is having a b-day party this weekend, and she loves LPS. So K and I made her a birthday card with one of the little ponies found here . K picked out which animal to use, which colors to use and then which embossing folders to use. I cut it out, put the pieces in the folders and let her emboss them. I then glued them on deco trimmed the edge with my paper cutter. I think we did a good job.
I was looking for something to play around with and create in SCAL, so I stuck with something simple. It turned out OK but I wasn’t completely satisfied and will for sure work on it more and add in a cut out into it to give it more character, but this will do for now.
