Justin ~ Family and Birthday Card

I enjoyed working with this wonderful photo of Justin and his family for the Reeds (for more layouts celebrating Justin's life go HERE):

I used Ingeborg Dijkstra-Verbeek's wonderful January sketch:

 

Paper, letters, remember ~ K and Company

Stamens ~ McGill Starburst Punch

Flowers ~ EK Success Retro Flower Punch

Ranger Stickles ~ Crystal

Sizzix Sizzlits die ~ Scribbles Swirls

Once punched, I water distressed the flowers and added stickles to the edges, stamens, swirls, and circle edges along with a rhinestone in the center of each flower:

I created this card for our daughter, Grace's birthday coming up next month.  Shhhh ~ don't let her know.

I used the 1-19-11 Let's Scrap Card Sketch by the talented Cheri O'Neill:

 

Paper ~ Bo Bunny Winter Joy Line

Ribbon ~ from my stash

Rubber Stamp Sentiment ~ Stampin' Up

Embossing Powder ~ White

Border Punch ~ EK Success - Double Crochet Lace

Glass Pebbles ~ floral department

Ranger Alcohol Ink ~ to color pebbles

I also entered this card in the Flourishes Boutique Timeless Tuesday Challenge 102 to use hardware on a card - my hardware is the alcohol inked glass pebbles.

Thanks for stopping by!
