Hello Friend

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a great weekend! Our new challenge is live over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #44 March Anything Goes! I actually CASE’d one of my own cards that I made for another DT a couple months ago – a pretty mixed media friendship card featuring the emboss resist technique with white heat embossing and inked background on the front and stamping on the inside.

2019_0925013a

I cut the card base with the largest die in the set. Then I stamped the background in Versamark and heat embossed it in white. Then the emboss resist fun began. I inked the background in graduating colors of distress inks, starting with the darkest at the top, and overlapping each color slightly as I went down the panel. I cut the panel with the second largest die in the set and traced around the outside of it on the back of a piece of coordinating cardstock (which I fussy cut) to get a slightly larger layer. I did the same technique for the sentiment layer and turned it sideways on the front of the panel. I cut the sentiment from shimmer cardstock and added a Tim Holtz metallic sentiment sticker. The final touch was a few drops of Crystal Drops.

After cutting the inside panel, I used the same technique of tracing around the second largest die in the set on the back of a piece of coordinating cardstock (which I fussy cut) to get a slightly larger layer. Then I stamped the sentiment from Clarity Stamp.

One more peek… I really love how this card turned out! Emboss resist is such a cool technique!

On Your Retirement

3/31/20 DT Favorite at A perfect Time To Craft Open Challenge!

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a great weekend – it’s fast coming to an end, lol! Our March challenge is live this morning over at Love To Scrap Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for LTSCB #131 – Anything Goes! I created a retirement card featuring the black ice technique. I officially retire in a few months so I’m in that kind of mind-set! This is the first time I’ve done the black ice technique and I think it turned out pretty well although it was a little difficult getting good photos in my light box.

2019_1019005a

I’ve typically seen this technique done with silver mirror cardstock so I decided to try it with gold. I used Stampin’ Up Lovely As A Tree stamp set, StazOn Jet Black ink and Versamark for the main panel. The sentiment is stamped from a Lily of the Valley circular sentiment stamp set that I’ve had in my stash for years.

2019_1019006a

I embellished the inside panel with a leftover strip of the black ice panel trimmed off the front and a thin strip of black cardstock, and layered the panel on black cardstock. The inside sentiment, stamped in black ink, is from Pretty Pink Posh.

2019_1019007a

One more peek… LOVE how this turned out! I’ll definitely be doing this technique again, but on silver mirror cardstock next time!

Christmas Tags

Hi everyone! Can you believe we’re rolling right into March already?! This month’s challenge has launched this morning over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m happy to share my DT inspiration for MLCCB #20 – March Anything Christmas Goes! I created three sets of stamped and embellished Christmas tags.

I ordered the Tin of Tags kit along with the coordinating stamp set from Stampin’ Up a while back and finally decided to make them up to send to family members. I don’t think they sell this kit any longer, so I sure am glad I bought it when I did. There were enough tag bases, embellishments and twine to make 30 tags.

So I divided them up and created three sets of ten and tucked them into cellophane bags. I had leftover skinny red Washi Tape that I threw into my Washi Tape stash, and a very cool square red tin that I have on my desk holding several bottles of my go-to glue. Can you say FUN?! I love projects like this!

I’d love to enter these tags into the following challenges:

Smile

3/7/20 Top Rocker at 613 Avenue Create!
3/16/20 Winner at A Bit More Time To Craft!

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday and March 1st! Wow, we are rockin’ and rollin’ right through the months, aren’t we?! The new March challenge is live over at Mix It Up Challenge Blog and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for MIUCB #35 – Anything Goes + Smooshing! I created a friendship card using the smooshing technique for my background, and what I call phantom die cutting, and I think it turned out pretty cool!

I grabbed the craft mat, Brushos, distress sprayer and a piece of cold press watercolor paper, and created my background. I started with yellow, then moved to orange, and then red, drying with my heat tool between smooshes. Using a fan brush, I splattered dark brown over the entire piece and when it was dry, trimmed it and matted it on dark brown cardstock. The great thing about watercolor backgrounds is there is no right or wrong, and every one you create looks different!

To create the raised inlaid die cut sentiment, I cut the ‘Smile’ sentiment into the background and into two scrap pieces of orange craft foam. I adhered the first foam die cut into the negative space, then adhered the second foam die cut on top of that one, and then adhered the background die cut on top of the foam. This is the second project I created using this technique and this time I used two foam die cuts instead of one, so it raised the sentiment up just a tad higher. I finished the front with English Mustard Crystal Drops.

I embellished the inside with leftover brown cardstock and a thin strip trimmed from the smooshed background, then I stamped a CAS-ual Fridays Stamp sentiment in brown ink.

Here’s one more look… totally happy with how this turned out! ;)

Happy Spring

Hi friends! Hope you’re having a great week – the weekend is almost here! A couple weeks ago I shared that I’m guest designing for The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge this month. We’re being sponsored by Bugaboo Digi Stamps so be sure to join The Outlawz so you can join in the fun! The Twisted Thursday challenges are always Anything Goes with an optional twist. Today’s challenge is being hosted by Janet and the twist is ‘Hoodie-Hoo.’ It was explained to me that on this winter day (usually celebrated on the 20th) people go out at noon, wave their hands over their heads, and chant “Hoodie-Hoo.” It’s a day to chase away Winter blues and bring in Spring. After all, everyone in the northern hemisphere is sick and tired of Winter at this point and a little crazy being cooped up inside all winter and not seeing the sun. So this one is wide open to interpretation and we can’t wait to see what you create!

I created a ‘Happy Spring’ card featuring the adorable Bugaboo Birdhouses digital image from my stash. I adhered a floral print paper to the front of the card base and then created a green print panel that I layered on foam and adhered to the left side of the floral print.

I colored the image, trimmed it and adhered it to the green panel. I affixed tiny iridescent gemstones to the center of each flower and a simple red bow at the top. I adhered the Spring definition (created on the computer) on a vertical tab and a few larger gemstones on the right side.

I embellished the inside panel with leftover strips of the papers used on the front and a layered computer-generated sentiment.

And one more look… I so love how this turned out and it sure makes me ready for Spring! ;)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day treat box

Hi everyone! Happy Hump Day – it’s almost the end of February! I’m not posting on the Simply Crafty SVGs Blog today but have popped in this morning to share an extra DT inspiration project with you, an adorable treat box created with the Simply Crafty SVGs Pot O Gold Treat Box cut file, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day in a couple weeks, which has always been one of my favs because of the green! ;)

2019_09040019a

I mean, how flippin’ cute is this?! It’s so easy to put together but sure packs a big punch with all that color! I used dark gray for the pot and of course, rainbow colors for the rainbow, and the sentiment was a printable included in the cut file that I punched with a circle punch and layered on slightly larger punched circle.

Here’s an angled shot…

Happy Birthday

2/29/20 Spotlight Winner at A Perfect Time To Craft Open Challenge!

Hi friends! Hope your week is off to a great start! I have a pretty birthday card to share today that features a CAS panel popped up on colored foam! I love adding colored foam beneath a focal image so there’s just a hint of color peeking out from around it.

I created the card base and trimmed down the background panel. I stamped and heat embossed the floral swag image, then colored the image with bright markers and put it off to the side while I trimmed a piece of teal-colored foam to go behind the background panel and cut the inside panels. I adhered the focal image to the foam, adhered the piece to the card base, and then added a few pearl embellishments.

I embellished the inside panel with a strip of teal cardstock, stamped the inside sentiment and layered the panel on teal cardstock.

And one more look… I couldn’t be happier with how this turned out! And I always need more birthday cards in my stash! ;)

2020_0222001

My hubby recently bought me several large and small embroidery hoops for my crafty stash so I decided to use a small one for this project. I colored the image with my Spectrum Noir markers, then centered the image in the hoop and traced around the outside of the hoop to cut a circle. I adhered the image on the back of the hoop and then added some paper flowers, a ribbon bow embellished with a flower button, and a little bit of bling. I also added a circle of pink and white gingham paper to the back of the wall hanging to give it a clean and finished look on the back side.

And one more peek… I’m absolutely tickled with how this turned out! I’m always really happy when my projects turn out as good in real life as they do in my mind, lol!

All Occasion Spring Floral Note Cards

Hello, my peeps! Happy Saturday – I hope you have a great weekend planned! I’m delighted to share my Ephemoire inspiration project with you this morning. If you haven’t already done so, be sure to head over to the Ephemoire Etsy Shop to check out all the amazing digital printables… there are collage sheets, digital papers, journal kits, clip art and mixed media printables, and the print quality is awesome!

I was provided Ephemoire Sapphire Spring Floral letter-size digital papers, Crafty Sentiments #1 and Crafty Sentiments #2 to play with this month and created a pretty set of all occasion note cards. OMG, I love how these turned out – check out these blues and greens!

I used a shaped card die set to create these cards. The card bases were cut from an array of blue and green cardstock using the largest die in the set. I cut all the card front panels from the gorgeous Sapphire Spring Floral letter-size digital papers using the next smaller size die. Then, using that same size die, I cut plain white panels from 60# Hammermill copy paper for the insides of the cards, leaving plenty of room to write a custom message. I always print the Ephemoire digitals on this Hammermill paper because the heavier-weight copy paper yields very nice print quality and sturdy printed papers and elements.

I printed a variety of sentiments from the new Crafty Sentiments digital files (also on the Hammermill copy paper), cut them in strips and added them to the front panels. To finish off the cards, I punched small flowers from matching cardstock which I embellished with a tiny white flat-back pearl.

And here’s one more look… I’m so smitten with these papers I can’t even stand it! Traci never disappoints with her products!

I’d love to enter this pretty set of cards into the following challenge:

unleash your inner unicorn

Hello, friends! Hope you’re having a good week! Our new challenge is live over at Southern Girls Challenge and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project with you today! As always, the theme for our challenge is Anything Goes and we’d love to see what you create! Our sponsors this time are Krafter’s Cart, Stamper’s Delights (formerly Scrapper’s Delights) and Avery Elle. I was provided Stamper’s Delights Chibi Unicorn Blythe digital image to create with. OMG, cuteness overload – she’s absolutely adorable!

I printed three of the Blythe images and layered them on top of each other for some dimension. I colored the top one with my Prismacolor pencils and then ran a Memento Tuxedo Black marker around the outside edge to give it a finished look. I added a computer-generated sentiment and lots of bling.

I embellished the inside panel with leftover strips of the cardstock used on the front, and added another computer-generated sentiment.

And another peek… love how this turned out! Sometimes clean and simple does pack a powerful punch! ;)
