A little Gel with my Fishies

Hello and Happy Wednesday

 

You are probably wondering where is Borderline Buddies?

 

Well, my Canadian BFF is on vacation....she I need to mark her absent from the blog this week....but I'm going to challenge her with something to make up for it..... :-)

 

So......it's just me....and just another day!

Don't forget.....




While hosts and new demonstrators got to party it up in June with their Extra Stampin’ Rewards and Starter Kits with free stamps, we’ve been preparing a special deal so shoppers could have their own reason to party: Bonus Days!

For every $50 you spend* between July 7 and July 31, you’ll get a $5 Bonus Days coupon that you can use between August 2–31, 2016. This is a great opportunity for you to get items from your wish list, whether you buy them now or with your coupons in August, so spread the word.

This is the first time we have offered this type of promotion, and it’s a deal everyone will want in on!

Now....back to our regularly scheduled program......well...maybe....
 

Being you guys are missing out on BB this week, I felt I needed to make up for it....so I have an extra special post for you today!

 

Let's take a look.....shall we?

 

 

This is not my idea....saw it on a demo site...a demo from the UK...but when I saw it I remember doing this type of card years ago....but a bit different...different stamps....

 

So.....let me ask you...when you hear hair gel.....what else do you hear?

 

 

I hear make a card....actually the center of the porthole is a little baggie (repurposed from a SU product) and filled with a bit of hair gel! 

 

The background is stamped with the Hardwood Background Stamp.

The rest of the card is stamped using the new

Seaside Shore Item Number 141622 (W) and 141625 (C) 

 It's a set of 15 stamps and don't forget the coordinating Designer Series Paper!

 

The porthole was created using our Silver Foil Sheets (item # 132178)

 

The circles of the porthole were created using the Circle Framelits.  I have the retired ones but you can now get the circles, squares, ovals and hearts that include not only the shapes but a scallop shape and there are two different types of hearts to chose from as well.  You can find these on page 193 in the catalog!

 

Sorry about the glare but when I zoom in with my camera the flash automatically goes on.

 

So....when you see products in your home....there is more you can do than just what they are intended to do!

 

 

Hope you loved this project!
