Scorpal ideas! Just in time for VAlentines day

Good morning! I have to share some of the cool ways I played with the scorpal this week. First of all this is a tool that you just have to get. Until I played with it I surely didnt think I wanted one as the top of my wish list was packed with new stamps and papers...But wow! The first thing I used it for was to get the perfect crease in a project and it started this blowout session of creating. Here are a few ideas on white cardstock, and as you can see its pretty dramatic. Sorry about the photos, I just HAVE to get a new camera. I have been disappointed in my photos for a long time. Its back to Olympus for me:)

Ok, starting from the top I worked to create some simple lines as a dimension for a stamp image or layer. VERY simple with the scorpal...




Here you see the Scorpal, which has its own scor tool that is contained right on the board. Its really cool for those of us that love storage. Ok that is most papercraftin gals:) The board has lots of "grooves" that the tool just slides right down. Its amazingly easy and also easy to store. I have to say, all of these ideas took less than 1/2 hour to create, and photograph. I know you can do it too. Come and try mine first if you like....its awesome.
This was a cute one. I tried to use some squares as I love that shape for cards. This sure made a cute border. I have a daughter graduating this spring and I think this would be PERFECT for her announcements! No measuring...just follow the lines.

FUN FUN FUN! I love this....first I scored one side, then flipped over and scored the other side...the result was this awesome texture. I love it!
I didnt get it lined up perfectly but hey, its an idea right? I thought it was amazing how simple it was with the scorpal...


Ok, so you have seen some cool ideas. In a bit I am posting two cards I made during this little creative session and you are gonna love them!

Cool new calendar to make

Hey I have to tell you how much fun my cool team The Angelettes are! This past weekend Gayle, Missy, Gina, Laurie and Tammy came to help run our catalogue debut party which we love putting on for our stamping friends each time a new catty is out. Sue came on by later too and it was so sweet to see her!

So we had fun creating projects, Gayle and I. We stamplifted one entirely from Heather my friend. Here is her oz-some site http://stampez.typepad.com/

Then we came up with a Valentine you can see at http://theangelettes.blogspot.com/ and this cute coaster project too. Its great to use new products and these sheet coasters were the perfect base!

Keep creating!!! Its just a blast to share ideas with you. Oh and for those of you wanting these cute calendars, I buy mine through http://impressrubberstamps.com
