July Papertrey

....let's post these before the month gets away from me.



Peaceful Garden. I was sitting in a dark movie theater watching Cars 2 with Hank when inspiration struck. Mater and Lightening McQueen where in Japan and in the background of one of the scenes was bamboo against a circle. Eureka! You just never know when inspiration will strike.



Friendship Jar Summer Fillers and Little Labels. Remember that movie (speaking of movies) with Diane Keaton. Baby Boom? Didn't she start a cottage business making organic, gourmet baby food and packaging them up in mason jars? That little memory was all it took on this card.



Tag-its #6. Just playing around with die cut layers. So many possiblities.



Hanging Out with little soccer jerseys. Getting a little help from Have a Ball.


Sweet As Can Be. So love this set. Used Half & Half to make an interactive card.



Why have one scoop for your birthday when you can have a gazillion? Notice how the sentiment seems to flow between the two layers too.



Congrats All Ways. Playing with die cutting those Half & Half dies and the different ways you can use the stamps. The two symmetrical birds from Happy Trails reinforce the theme.


Background Basics: Vine. Some tricky stamping here with masking/selective inking. But I had a vision and had to see it through. Sometimes I wish such inspiration would dislodge itself a little more easily from my brain. But no, like a dog on a bone some days.

Thanks for stopping by and all the nice comments you've left over the last few weeks. :)
