I collect old cameras! They are not in the very best condition, as they really are just to look at and appreciate, but I just love having these treasures from days gone by to remind me of a simpler time. Can you imagine how excited I was when I saw the April Stamp of the Month, Life in Pictures? Yes, I was VERY excited! LOL!
Here are a couple of the old cameras that I am lucky to own:
Needless to say, I was really looking forward to having a play with this gorgeous stamp set filled with so many cute cameras and adorable sayings.
Just like last month, my projects are based on artwork from the Seasonal Expressions Idea Book. I just love the creative ideas developed by the CTMH Art Department for our gorgeous Idea Books and I am always super-keen to try them out for myself.
My first project uses Kraft Cardstock, Urban B&T Paper and Black and Gold Ribbon on a Colonial White Card Base with the image and sentiment stamped in Memento Black ink on Colonial White Cardstock. The sentiment has been dove-tailed and mounted on Sapphire Cardstock. It's simple and quick- the perfect card project to fit into my crazy, busy life right now!
You know me! When I get one a roll with a quick and easy card, I like to create variations of the same design. The two cards below follow the same formula, but I have substituted the ribbon for Gold Foil Tape and Gold Shimmer Trim and added some Gold Sequins to one, but they are essentially the same design.
