Friday Challenge 91 with Quick Quotes~

Hi, Connie here with this months challenge.  You know I love photo strips, on scrapbook pages, so I got to thinking~what about photo strips on cards.  They are easy to make and look great on a card.
So let's do this~

Instructions for photo strips:
* First find a small stamp and get your Quick Quotes PowderPuff Chalk inks out, you will need them.

*Using white cardstock make swatches of ink down one side.
*Stamp your small image in the center of the color swatch.
*Punch the swatch out with a square punch.  can be 1" or 1 1/2" doesn't matter.
*Cut strips of paper from the Secret Garden collection (CN103) and then down the middle. See picture.
*Mount square swatches on white cardtsock and trim out into a strip.
*Add Secret Garden strip to each side of image strip.  Cut the strip at the length you need for the cards.

*Stamped sentiment using Quick Quotes PowderPuff Chalk ink.

*Adhere to card fronts.

*Decorate with twine and pearls.

The Secret Garden paper is so bright and vibrant, I thought I would try to scan them into my computer and print them out as note cards.

*You will need to flip the image so it comes out the right way.  I added a little ink splats and a hand made stamp at the bottom of the cards.  The white cardstock size is 6" X 12".   The Canon iP8720 printer was used for this.  The cards printed beautifully.  I will be doing this again!!!!

The scanned and printed out cards are slightly lighter in color but they look great. and will be gladly received by someone.

October Challenge #80 with Quick Quotes~

Hi, Connie here with the October Challenge #80 for Quick Quotes.  I love adding memorabilia to my scrapbook pages.  Adding pockets to the front of the page is one idea but I used a map for the background, on the page, I'm sharing with you.  Take a look~

My photo strip, created on the iP8720 Canon printer, is adhered to the map with dimensional adhesive. I used Anchor's Aweigh by Quick Quotes as my pattern paper. So perfect for this project.

The pattern paper and die cuts, used for this page, were shaded with PowderPuff Chalk Ink by Quick Quotes.  Not only are the inks good for shading they are great for stamping images, as in sea shells!!

The shells were stamped and then shaded with the same ink they were stamped with. Next, cut them out and line them up, for a sea shell border, under the map. Such a fun project!!

Looking forward to seeing what you create with memorabilia
