Circle Sayings and
Floral Delight DSP 

I really like how this card turned out.  So easy, really!!!

I can imagine this card sketch in almost any DSP.

So much fun, so little time.

Recipe:

• The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Daffodil Delight cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
• The Pool Party layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
• The three pieces of 5 x 1 1/8 of Floral Delight DSP are added to the Pool Party piece with liquid glue.  I added three 1" squares of Floral Delight DSP over the long pieces.  I then wrapped some Baker's Twine around the Pool Party & DSP layers.  Then glued all to the base.
• I stamped the words, from Circle Sayings, on Basic White with Old Olive ink and punched this out with a 1 1/4" circle punch.  The Old Olive circle base is punched out with a 1 3/8" circle punch.  This combination is added to the card front with dimensionals.
• I added four Blooming Pearl Gems.
• All done and remember to decorate your envelope.

 Basic Black 6 x 8 Album and Photo Pocket Pages for a Thanks & Praise Journal.

My friend and a very talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, Vicki Kuracz, created a prayer journal and I thought I would share some of the pages.  Vicki used the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Card Pack, which has since retired, however, almost any card pack will do.

Vicki has inspired me so much, that I have ordered my own album, photo pocket pages and the Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack.  If my album turns out well, I might be tempted to offer a class in the near future. 

Should you want to order any of the supplies used to make this album (excluding the Sweet Thoughts Memories & More Card Pack), please just click Right Here and search for Vicki Kuracz.
