I was working the store and all I had were pieces I already cut out so I this card is pretty straight forward, stamped, colored and cut.  The saying is framed with one of our stamps and colored with Copic as well as all of the other images. The ant mounds are glues at the very bottom and the top of the mounds have small pop dots under them.   The tree is a bare tree I just dotted with the Copic markers.  I tore a scrap of cardstock and sponged Brillance ink over the edges to make the clouds.  The scalloped edge is cut from Spellbinders.

Picnic On A Table

I stamped the table on white card stock with red ink and just cut out the top of the table.  Then I stamped the table on the light brown card stock and glued the top of the table on the card.  I used EK Success punch for the edge of the table and added pearls.  Stamped the words in VersaFine Sepia ink, and sponged the edges. Stamped the food, colored it with Copic markers and cut them out, (the hotdog is cut from the stamp that has 2 hotdogs on a stick).  I punched the bottom of the light brown card stock with Martha Stewart punch.  I had the red bow laying on my desk so that went on as well as the blue and brown flower that has been on my desk for a while from something.

What We Eat

This one is for fun.  The top of the Cola can didn't come out very well, but it was stamped on the foil that a candy bar was wrapped in.  The hamburger was colored with Copic markers and the background frames were cut with Spellbinders.

Currie's Divine Cookbook

Boy, does Currie have a great cookbook to share! 

 I saved this for Friday, just in case you would like to try some of her ideas.

This cookbook sits on the counter at the store and everyone enjoys looking through it,

I hope you will too.

The book front and back covers are made from chipboard. 

She stamped the apron and cut the tie strings off and braded floss for the stings.  Also she wrapped floss around the neck loop.  Sprayed the apron with Paper Glide and shaped it to give it some shape. Copper wine with beads and a clothespin hang the apron.  Tim Holtz Fragments were used for the "Divine" stamp, and she used StazOn ink, Smooch are the dots after the words were dry.  The front of the sign was covered with Shimmerz.  There are little pearls at the apron stings and rhinestones and pearls around the edges.  The scalloped shape was cut out from Cricut and the blue card stock was distress from Tim Holtz tool.  All of the stamps she used are Crackerbox Palace Stamps.

The dividers with tabs are cut using Cricut cartridge Just Because Cards. 

Recipes were handwritten, cut from cookbooks, printed on the computer and some cut right off the box.

I sure hope you enjoyed this as much as I did.

Delicious Watermellon

Doesn't watermellon sound good after all of these hot days?

Currie made this sweet card by stamping each watermellon on separate squares and coloring them with the Copic markers.  She matted each square and distress the green square of each one of them.  She added the ribbon on the bottom.  The green thread was knotted on each button and added to the ribbon.

The half watermellon is one of the stamps you can receive free.
