Grrreat RAK!

This 'n' That

13 Jul

I love fun mail days…you know the ones, you get no bills, and instead you get a fun RAK from a sweet blog friend.
Look what I got in the mail the other day from Karen Thede from Vista, California.
This was her first effort at coloring with the Sansodor Solvent, and she did an awesome job, and the card is adorable.  Thank you so much Karen, I love it!

Grrreat Card from Karen Thede:
DSCN8501 copy Stamp Set: Under the Stars
Paper: Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Walk in the Park DSP
Ink: Basic Black
Misc: (Karen said she used the Wonderful Watercolor crayons), sansodor, stumps, cuttlebug folder, circle scallop die, rectangle die
– I am guessing a bit, so Karen, if I boo-booed, just holler and I can fix it…see above where I corrected..thanks Karen!

So if the front is not adorable enough, look what happens when you open it up…

DSCN8503 copy …this is opening it up. There are all these layers with a different pop-up on each one.

DSCN8504 copy The first one is the compass, its like the arrow is pointing to tell you to keep going as you flip through the card.

DSCN8505 copy  The next one is that rascally raccoon. I can not look at a raccoon and not think of the movie the Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Ackroyd, they were such a great comedy team.

DSCN8506 copy The last one is the mosquito dive bombing the s'more, and oh my gosh the way Karen colored the marshmallow it looks good enough to eat. It's all toasted with just a tiny bit of burned part, I can almost taste it…makes me want to toast a marshmallow right now.  Of course all I have in the house that is close to having a marshmallow is rice krispie treats, I don't think that'll work.

Thank you so much Karen for sending me such a cute card.  Right to my sample basket it is going so everyone else can enjoy it as much as me!

Have a great Monday and thanks for stopping in!

    Diana! Imagine my surprise when I went to your Blog tonight and saw my card! 🙂 I feel so honored you shared that. You got it all right – except that I used the Wonder Crayons from Stampin'UP instead of the Water color pencils this time. Thanks again for showing and sharing my card. I love following your blog and ideas. I especially like the tip with jar lids, as I just had an accident tipping over my
    Sansador solvent earlier tonight! Great idea…

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
