I hope that you all had a nice Saturday! Of course being at the Stamp, Ink, Paper Store how could I not?! Renee has a two day crop this weekend and I love to sit there and chat with the ladies! My friend Ebony stopped by to get some lawn Fawn goodies and I forgot to put something in her bag so when she came back I gave her a free pack of sequins. Love my customers! I left the store around 4:00, another perk of being the boss! LOL! I had to go to George’s and get Heather’s car, which I’m happy to report has a nice new windshield, and go and pick them up from the airport. It started to rain while I was there and I parked miles away. My trusty Dark Sky App told me that the rain would stop in five minutes and sure enough it did! I think George was a little amazed! We had a nice uneventful ride back to George’s and they got me a Starbucks cup from New Orleans as a thank you! YAY! I had a little dinner at my Parent’s and my Dad made spinach dip, so much for the diet! When I got home I decided that I would unplug for a few and just watch a movie. I never do that, turned the iPhone on silent and just enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen. Now there is a one action packed blow everything up movie! Today I have a lot of administrative things to accomplish and a few projects that I want to get finished at the store! What’s on for you today?
My card that I have to share with you today is one that I made using the June My Monthly Hero Kit. The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I took a piece of Real Red and used the We R Memory Keepers Dotted Next Level 3D Embossing Folder to add some hearts to the strip and adhered it to the card with E-Z Runner. My tag is cut from a piece of Kraft using the tag die that comes with the kit. I also used the window die to cut out the front of the tag. A few more of the dies included in the kit are cut from some Daffodil Delight, Shadow Curious Metallic and Pluto Stardream Curious Metallic. To make my shaker pocket I used the We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool and one of their 12×12 Page protectors. I have to add that I also have the Silicone Mat and it makes a big difference when using the Fuse Tool! Before I sealed the pocket I added the metallic die cuts and some Silver Sequins. It’s then adhered to the inside of the tag with Scor-Tape. On a piece of Solar White 80lb I stamped the Sending Love and some hearts in Red Royal Ink with the included Photopolymer Stamp Set and adhered that to the inside back of the tag. The two Daffodil Delight die cuts are adhered to the outside and some Hemptique Natural Hemp Cord is tied thorough the hole. Just to make it a little more fun I used Magnet Tape to secure the tag to the card, that way if someone wants to take the tag off and hang it they can! I love the fun goodies included in this month’s My Monthly Hero Kit especially that cool Tag Die! I hope that you like my cool little shaker card! Thank you oh so much for visiting with me today! Have an awesome Sunday! 🙂
