Aug. Club

We met about a week ago for stamp club and had a great time! We have a few new faces that I'm happy have joined us. Our focus was in honor of kids. Here's what we made:


This card was started out with the Melon Mambo but one of the women wanted to give it to her grandson, so we did one with greens.
Supplies:
Stamps: Sock Monkey, Boho backgrounds
Paper: Melon Mambo, Choc. Chip, Very Vanilla, Kraft
Ink: Choc. Chip, Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo
Accessories: Vanilla Hodgepodge

I couldn't decide between the next two cards so we made both! They are 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"

Supplies:
Stamps: Everything Nice, All in the Family
Paper: Bashful Blue, Night of Navy, Certainly Celery, Choc. Chip, White
Ink: Choc. Chip
Accessories: Hearts and brackets die, Aquapainter

Supplies:
Stamps: Everything Nice, Sock Monkey Accessories
Paper: Pretty in Pink, Barely Banana, Cameo Coral, Old Olive, White
Ink: Old Olive, Cameo Coral
Accessories: Polk-a-dot texturz plate

To finish it off, we made small envelopes with a small note inside to stick in our kid's lunchbox or backpack.
They all turned out sooooo cute!

Made with Scallop envelope die and Flowers #1 charms die

Last time I blogged I really thought, I'm going to do a better job of blogging more often! I haven't done very well at that! My kids have been tracked out and we had the BEST vacation. Lots of fun activities! I'll definitely add pictures but still need to download them. I recently made this card and thought I'd share it.
