Oh Boy!




I really love Gina K stamps and stamp TV. The stamps are wonderful and Stamp TV is full of wonderful ideas, tutorials and new techniques.

This card meets 4 different challenges!

365 Cards #111 – Say it with stripes
365 Cards #108 Oh Boy – make a masculine card not for an adult
365 Cards #82 – Living on the Edge
SCS SC 76

Gina K Designs has a wonderful tutorial on her blog on how to extend the word window punch which I found ages ago and have used numerous times since then and absolutely love it. It makes that punch so much more versatile.

My stitching is a rub on I found at Big Lots by Autumn Leaves. I paid $2.00 for a pack of these and am lovin’ them.

Those wonderful buttons are Basic Grey Mellow collection. I have no clue how I never found these until recently, but I know I need more of them.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day!

The stripes remind me of the circus for some reason! Thanks for the link for the tutorial, I had forgotten could do that.
