Swap Card Week #3
I ran a Versamark pad over the embossed part of the image and then colored it with my Stampin Up! chalks.
Unfortunately this next step didn't show up in the scan... To seal it, I sprayed it with some leftover homemade glimmer spray consisting of Pearl colored Perfect Pearls mixed with unscented hairspray. You technically don't have to mix the Perfect Pearls with hairspray to make a glimmer spray- you could just use water... However, if you used water then your mist wouldn't work as a sealer for your chalks, LOL. Anyway, this card is VERY shimmery in real life!

I am really, really, REALLY behind in posting the cards I've made for the current swap I'm in!
The theme for this week is a favorite card to make. I really had so much fun making this little card for Jan in the last swap, that I wanted to try it again but in different colors. This card is so fun to make!!!

Windows Vista is the spawn of satan!!!
These are my inchies and ATCs for a Stars/Stripes swap that I joined on Yahoo Groups. The scan doesn't show the tiny gold pearl in the center of the stars on top of the firecrackers on the inchies.

Sparkle Card
More Paris Decos
I used the transparent embossing paste and glitter through the fleur de lis brass stencil again, and it still doesn't show up well in the scan.
Debbie punched holes in the corners of some 4" coasters and added some wire to bind them together as a book. Another great idea!

May Bird Inchies and Eyelet card
In addition to "Don't drive or operate heavy machinery" some pills should also have the warning "Do not attempt to cut and assemble tiny pieces!" I am sure it was rather comical to watch me make inchies in this state, LOL.
Here is my eyelet card for last week's swap. As usual, the scan didn't pick up all the sparkle and glitz...
I mailed this card late because I wanted to wait until I was healed up enough to work on it properly. I wasn't under the influence of pain meds when I made this one, although I still must have had some pills left in my system because I did everything really, REALLY SLOWLY, LOL.

Oodles of Inchies!
I wanted to try doing Spirelli small enough for an inchie. I found a little sun punch that I thought would work. I think it turned out really well.

Here I have used them on a chunky book page:
Inchies
February's theme was pigs. I had my first ever stamping emergency while making the pig inchies. I really wanted to make a Charlotte's Web inchie and thought for sure that we had a spider stamp in our collection.... I prepped my backgrounds and glued on my images and only then discovered that we didn't own a spider stamp, sticker, rub on or any other 8-legged embellishment... OOPS! At this point I only had two days before the inchies had to be in the mail and I was panicking. I went shopping in search of anything small and spidery and I couldn't find anything with spiders on it at all! Finally, when I was about to give up hope, I miraculously found a small spider stamp (left over from Halloween). Luckily it also turned out to be the perfect size for my inchie when I used it on shrink plastic. Next time I will remember to double check whether or not I have a stamp/embellishment before I actually plan a project around it (at least I hope so!) LOL.
