Here's some fabulous ideas from our DT!


I loved this month's challenge. I don't usually put pictures on my cards, but I was going to take this challenge on. I made my card just a bit bigger than I usually would, so as to fit the two photos of my kids. The card has a Chevron pattern in it, I used the I-Top to create holly berries and then hand cut the title out for one of my embellishments.

Imaginisce Supplies:
Merry & Bright Patterned Papers, I-Top, 16 mm I-Top Brad Daddies and 16mm Brad Punch



My dad loves to play golf and since his birthday is just around the corner I wanted to create a card for him with his favorite hobby as the focus.
I went to the internet and searched for 'golf photos'...I then saved the two stock pictures and spliced them together to form a 4x6 photo. The large die cut was just the right size in keeping with the scale of the photo! I know that he will love it :)


Supplies: Hello Cupcake: Birthday Hooray! 12x12 Paper, Cheers! 12x12 Paper, Wish Big 12x12 Paper, Wish Come True Die Cuts; Colored Foam Tape - White; Misc: Baker's Twine and brads.



My little guy turns five next month. I loved this challenge because it gave me a chance to create a card with a photo from his first birthday and a recent photo. I used papers from Monster Mash and Hello Cupcake. For a bit of fun, I added some Glam Rocks to the big ol' cupcake taken from a Sticker Stacker.



Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Hello Cupcake!, Monster Mash Collections (Imaginisce); Cardstock: Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White (Stampin' Up!); Stickers: Surprise! Sticker Stacker (Imaginisce); Accents: Glam Rocks (Imaginisce), brads (generic); Tools: i-Rock (Imaginisce); Dies: Top Note (Sizzix)



This hanging wall art is made using a single sheet of acrylic from a mini album. What an easy way to get into the holiday spirit!


Supply List: Imaginisce Christmas Cheer pattern paper, die cuts, stickers; Imaginisce Clicut, ribbon, white gel pen, Silhouette Cameo and chevron die cut.


Rhonda Van Ginkel

The chevron background was cut using my Silhouette. I had a nice amount "white space" in the upper portion of my photo. For my 2nd photo, I created a copy of just the water portion and using PicMonkey, added my journaling on top of the water, saved and printed. I then cut the photo journaling into strips.

Supplies: Makin' Waves papers (2 pattern), Makin' Waves die cuts (2), Foam Tape by Imaginisce, White and Blue Cardstock by AC, Spiced Marmalade distress Ink, Silhouette, Sewing Machine and Thread
