Today's swap card is from another adoptee, Allison Nolan.  She's been doing SU! longer than any of us and she still loves it as much.

Supplies: 

Stamp Set: Pennant Parade

Paper: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Lucky Limeade

Ink: Lucky Limeade, Soft Suede

Tools: Big Shot, pennant punch, word window punch, modern label punch and any embossing folder (this is not an SU! one, but we have several that would give this same look.  Have you seen our Hounds tooth embossing folder?)

Thanks for checking me out today!

Are you falling in love with our owls?

Here is another 2-step owl punch card I cased from Maria Cameron.  I hadn't learned how to do the beak when I made this card, but you should add a little piece of mustard underneath their eyes.

Supplies: 

Stamp Sets: Teeny Tiny Wishes

Paper: Basic Black, Whisper White, Old Olive, Riding Hood Red, Crumb Cake, Newsprint DSP

Ink: Basic Black, early espresso (shading with dauber)

Ribbon: 1/8" early espresso ribbon

Tools: 2-step owl punch, 2-step bird punch, square scallop die, modern label punch, word window punch

Accessories: glue dot, dimensionals

Doesn't have to be pink and red

Here is one final card cased from Mary Brown.  It is using the same set we have been using all week, but you don't HAVE to use it only for Valentines.  I think the ribbon I used on this card was too big, but it was all I had in the right colors.  Go here to see Mary's great ribbon tying tutorial.  So, if you case this card, use a lighter ribbon.  This one is too heavy for such a sweet card.  BUT...PERFECT TO PUT IN MY 8 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER'S HAIR!!!  I'll be making that tomorrow.

Supplies:
stamp set: filled with Love
paper: pear pizzazz, chocolate chip, whisper white, so saffron, baja breeze
ink: pear pizzazz, choc. chip
accessories: perfect polka dots embossing folder, pear pizzazz stitched poly ribbon, choc corduroy brad (was on clearance), bitty buttons, oval die, small heart punch, word window punch, modern label punch, dimensionals 

DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT???!!!
