And Many Mower

April 2, 2009 By Connie | Leave a Comment

I think everyone has received their Control Freaks swaps. This was my card! I used the set from the new Occasions Mini, called And Many Mower! I loved this little checklist…in fact it was one of main reasons I purchased this set. When I was growing up, we knew better than to touch dad’s TV remote control! Although, I never really remember my dad relaxing…he is always on the go!

I started with a base card of Baja Breeze, then used the Texturz Kit #4 plate for the Really Rust layer (first I stamped and colored Relax with a Versa-marker). I added a strip of the new Walk in the Park designer paper. Then made a tag from Baja Breeze, rounding the corners and adding a Jumbo Eyelet and Baja Breeze striped ribbon. Finally, I stamped the checklist in Basic Black on Whisper White and colored in with Really Rust marker (sorry, the flash made a light spot in my image…there really isn’t any fading in the center!) I think this would make a great man’s card…for either birthday or Father’s Day!

Hope you have a great day…I’m headed out of town to do a make-up Punch Class from when I was sick last week. Looking forward to seeing my friends up there! They will be excited to see the new cards from this swap!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 22 years and just had my 21st year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
