This is the dry erase board I made using a wide picture frame I got for a bargain when my AC Moore store closed. I painted the edges black and covered the front with kraft paper using Mod Podge to glue it down ONLY...never put Mod Podge over kraft paper, I did and that is why this is the second one of these I've made. It caused the paper to bubble like crazy! I used four sets of stamps from The Stamps of Life. I'm a club member and just love Stephanie Bernard's stamps. The sets I used are, banners4all, list2write, mums2stamp and butterfly2build. I covered a small piece of kraft paper with contact paper and made a loop that I thumb tacked to the back so that it hung over the bottom edge and made a place for the dry erase marker.

Here's a cute card I recently sent to my mother, just to say hello. I used my Watercan Marci stamp from La-La Land Crafts (one of my new favorite stamp companies). I paper pieced her dress and visor and colored the rest of her with my copic markers. I used my Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Nine dies to cut the window.
The happy summer, ants and watermelon stamps used on the inside are from lawn fawn and I purchased them from Ginger Snap Scraps, she has a lot of great sales, usually with 30% off.

Another card I almost forgot about! I made this as a Father's Day card for my husband who LOVES pretzels. I used my Cricut Decals cart that comes on the E2 so this card came together pretty quickly. The #1 was stamped on a blank wood domino (for lack of a better word for it) that I got from Michaels. It has two holes going through it so I was able to thread it on some baker's twine. The banner on the bottom is from paper tape.
Wow, here's a card I made for my father for Father's Day and almost forgot to post! I used the pops2eat and patterns4pops stamp sets from The Stamps of Life, I just love their stamps! The sentiment came with the stamp set not including the POP! (what my kids call my father) so I added them with some random alpha stamps I have. The words were all stamped on a thin piece of balsa wood and I also added some paper tape you can get at Target. The wood gave the card a cool, different look and was easy to cut with scissors.
