Ribbon Rosette and Swing Card

Today I'm sharing some technique fun! On both of the next two pages I used the MOST FABULOUS Kreaxions Circle Cutter to make my circles. The S.W.A.T. Blog has a tutorial on how to make a ribbon rosette. It was easy and fun! I used it on a page about my mother-in-law who is a cancer survivor. I used some REALLY old Close to My Heart papers for this page.

Next is a swing card. This was another VERY easy technique and it has so many different applications!!! I chose to make a fun birthday card using some of Echo Park's adorable "Scoot" line for one of my grandsons... I made it for the My Scraps & More "Love Is In the Air" crop.

And finally this page about my parents' love for each other. Every time Mom goes to visit at the nursing home they act like this. The picture was taken just before their 65th wedding anniversary! I had great fun with alcohol inks, Glimmer Mist and Stickles on the grungeboard swirls! Just spray, dab and Stickle!!!

That's it for today. I've been playing a lot more but I'll save those for another day. Happy scrapping!!!
