Welcome to my blog!

Thank you for visiting my blog about cards and other hobbies. Stamp Club is for anyone that would enjoy making cards and learning new techniques - we would love to have you come! We meet the first Saturday of each month or the following Monday (unless changed because of holidays). (Each monthly get together is held those two days - sometimes one day is more convenient than the other!) An Evite is sent out each month - so if you would like to come to Stamp Club, just email me and let me know to put you on the Evite list: helencashon@gmail.com . Sometimes we have Stamp-A-Stacks or other classes also.

More display pictures 5.2.09

Cased from: _______________
I liked this grill too. The grill part itself is just the 1 3/4" (I think) circle punch cut in half and the lines drawn on with SU! white pen. The legs are the Word Window punch out of some silver texturized paper I found in Savannah. The handle on the lid is made from that also. The larger wheel is the 3/4" circle punch and the smaller wheel is the 1/2" circle punch.


And -- one more -- (these were the last of the display cards I made -- but the others are shown on earlier posts today which mean they are below here.)

This card was cased from splitcoaststamper poster: stampinwithroxy - card uploaded April 8, 2008.

The original card from which this was cased was made a little darker blue by putting the ink pad direct to paper. I just used Brocade Blue cardstock. The apron template was found on Mirkwood Designs (see address above - and/or google Mirkwood Designs and see this and other templates). Holes for the ribbon and the brads are the 1/8" punch I think. Happy Father's Day stamped image is from SU! All Holidays set. The "ribbon" at the top of the sentiment tag is the twill tape. The spatula is the small tag punch for the spatula part with the small slot punch for the slots in the spatula; the handle is the Word Window Punch. It's kind of a short handle, but since part of it is hidden in the apron, that didn't matter for this card. It amazes me what people can come up with creatively. When I see tag punch - I think -- tags. Not so with everybody! The oven mitt I just used part of the Wide Oval punch and part of Word Window punch for the thumb and glued them together and just traced and adapted a little til it looked like I wanted it.
