SHCG: What a great deal you got on the Quickcut"s"! Great summer card! I think the embossing is just the right amount and thanks for sharing the joke! Fun, bright card!
SHCG: LOL for sharing a joke in your description of this super fun card! Your deco scissors border finishes the top part nicely. I don't think you overdid the embossing and the added chalking brings even more dimension to your details. The popsicle and summer outfit are keeyoot! I like the yellow ricrac behind the lettering, doubling as flip flop straps. I also like your use of the wave border punch. The bitty rhinestones are great. My only suggestion is to tie a twine belt to the outfit and/or to the center of the flower like you would a button. It definitely gets my cute vote for all kinds of adorable details.
SHCG - I love this!! This pp RAWKS & is adorable! All the embossed diecuts are super FUN & well-placed. The ricrac is fab as is the wave punch. I see the deco edge at the top! I love everything about this colorful & playful page - spectacular job on this, Lisa! (PS one day when I clean out our storage space, I might send ya some of my beloved Quickutz stuff... gotta purge to make room for baby stuff, so good to know that Quickutz has a new fan!)
SHCG: This is totally adorable. I have this entire line (who can resist a penguin in a hula skirt?) and I've been waiting for just the right project to use it for lol. I really like the ric rac with summer on it. The diecuts do seem somewhat randomly applied, but I think it works here. I think the only thing I would have done differently would have been using a different color cs for the flip flops. Maybe it's my monitor, but it seems too bright in comparison with the other colors. Great card!
shcg - love the use of ricrak, love your diecuts and the pp and colors, but I think it may be a bit too much or maybe just too random of placement of the diecuts. my favorite elements are the summer titling, flipflops, and the waves combined with the pp...oh, and of course the decoscissor use!
SHCG: Fun, fun fun!!! What a great way to break in your new tool. I love the penguins. The wave across the bottom is awesome and the popscicle with a bite missing is great! Love the colors you used and the yellow ric rac on the top and the bottom. You used deco scissors? I am so shocked that you used them along the top of the pp (very cute deco cut btw, works great with this card)
Even though I have a Cricut, I just couldn't resist a Quickuts lot on Ebay. That's right it was spelled with a "s" instead of a "z". After a mighty bidding battle, with one other person who couldn't spell either, I got the tool, 35 dies, 3 alphabet sets, numbers, 4 embossing plates, and a storage binder with sleeves for the dies for $50! So of course I had to try it out. The "summer" text, flower, t-shirt & shorts, rain drops, and flip flops are all cut using my quickutz. I got a little carried away with the embossing plates but I had to try them and added a little chalk to the embossing. And can I just say I LOVE QUICKUTZ! I made the popsicle. The wave along the bottom matches one of the penguins shorts (it's hard to see). And I added a few shiny things to match the paper which has some glitter accents. All of the paper I used was scraps and I had just enough yellow ric rac ribbon to go across the top and for the flip flops.
I used my deco scissors only once. Can you find where? CAUSE....IT AIN'T SCRAPBOOKING IF YOU DON'T USE DECO SCISSORS!
PS I LOVE this paper because my mom used to tell me this joke OVER and OVER and OVER
A truck driver was delivering some penguins to the zoo on a hot July afternoon when his truck overheats. He flags down a truck and asks the driver if he would take the penguins to the zoo for $100. The other driver, an animal lover, readily agrees and the penguins jump in. The stranded driver walks into town to get help. He convinces a mechanic to come take a look at his broken truck. As they are heading back he sees the other truck driver with 25 penguins following him. "HEY! What in the heck are you doing!?" asks the stranded driver. The animal lover replays, "Well, we went to the zoo first and had some money left over. So now we are going for ICE CREAM!"
