Jimbo Lojik Blogging with Clearsnap Day Two


Join us everyday this week while we blog right along with Clearsnap, makers of fabulous inks, sprays, embossing powders and so much more!  The KellyCraft Design Team and Clearsnap Design Team will be showcasing KellyCraft's new line of Jimbo Lojik Stamps paired with Clearsnap Inks....

Today is Day TWO and today's project is by Cindi Bisson:

“You Ain’t Right!”



The new Jimbo Logik™ line of stamps from Kellycraft™ has something to make almost anyone laugh out loud!   

The one from my set that immediately popped out begging to be made into a card for a friend was “You Ain’t Right!”   I can think of soooo many ways to finish the verse with this one - and it would apply to so many people lol!    Friends, family, co-workers, the list is almost endless ;0).   This time I went with a fun card to (hopefully!) make a friend laugh.

Materials: 

Pink heart patterned paper 
Pink striped patterned paper
Lime green card stock 
Pink and lime green 1/4” grossgrain ribbon
