EASEL ATC CARDS

Good morning, I am back with a project that was made for a challenge over at the Facebook group "Crafter's with Artitude". The challenge was to make easel ATCs. I had never even heard of this before and thought that I would give it a try. I searched YouTube to find out if it had been done before and yep, there it was. So, I found a clear and concise tutorial and went to work.  This is what I came up with. IT was really simple and lots of fun. This is a great way to display your ATCs in your craft room.

 

The papers that I used were from K and Company the black and ivory collection. I inked all of the papers with black soot distress ink. I just love the way everything looks a little vintage to go with the images.  The images are from a Graphic 45 collection and the bling is from Michaels the punch used was EK Success and the sentiment is from the $1 bin at Michaels. The red bling is from the Paper Studio. Well, that is it for today and I hope to be back real soon with another project. Thanks for stopping by.

HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY

Good morning, it is the perfect day for crafting. It is raining out and I get to stay in and play for awhile. Love it. I have a lot of projects that I want to work on and so little time. Today I have a gorgeous card that I have made for my second oldest granddaughter who is going to be 18 in a couple of weeks. She will graduate from high school in May although, she finished all of her classes before Christmas. She loves red, lots of bling and flowers. So, the card was made using the corrugated cards from Michaels as the base and the card stock is bazzill. The designer paper is from a Valentine pack from Recollections. and a sheet of paper that I have had in my stash from the Paper Studio. The bling is recollections and the flowers are the Paper Studio bought on clearance after Valentine day. Just because a paper comes out during a holiday it can always be used for other occasions.

 

The image is from Kenny K and was colored with copics E00, E13, E09, E11, E15, R05, R24, R27, Y28 N2, N4. The image was matted using a Sizzix die.

 

 

The stamp on the front of the card is from a clear stamp set and it is stamped on a punch die from EK success, the inside stamp is from Hobby Lobby. The lips are from a valentine set of embellishments. Well, that is it for my card.

THANK YOUR TEACHERS AT TUESDAY THROWDOWN # 145

Good morning, it is Tuesday and time for another fun challenge at Tuesday Throwdown. This weeks challenge is "Thank Your Teachers" and the Sponsor is BUGABOO STAMPS. Jodie Mackrel is the owner and she has created lots of fabulous images.

My project this week is the wonderful little notebook. The DP is from K and Company. It is made using scraps from a mini that I am working on. I used several Spellbinders dies and a junior legal pad. The cover is made with card stock from Gina K. And as you can I see I created a pocket so the I could keep up with small bits of papers. On the front cover I used and image from Bugaboo Stamps and colored it with copics V01, V20, V17, V04, V91, E11, E13, E15. The stamped sentiment is from Michaels $1 bin. I punched it out with a EK success punch. I used a Martha Stewart punch to make a little decorative strip to go under the spellbinders, the corner bling is from Recollections.  I received the butterfly from my friend Terry in a swap that we recently did. I really like how this tuned out and I am going to take it to work and use it on my desk. I did glue to legal pad down. Well that is it for this post, I do have some challenges.

GET WELL SOON

Here I am again with another post. This time it is a get well card that I made for my boss a couple of weeks ago when she was very ill. She is now better and she loved the card.

Stella is from Bugaboo Stamps, I love Jodie's images and she has lots to choose from. I colored with copics E00, E11, E21, YR06 and since she is a nurse I did not have to color her uniform hat or shoes. I punched the sentiment with and EK Success punch and the sentiment came with the image. Soo perfect. The papers are Bazzill. There are a few challenges.

TIME FOR A FUN WEEKEND

Good morning, I am so happy to be off on a 3 day weekend. Means that there will be lots of time for crafting and cleaning in that order. There are a couple of things that I need to talk about before I get to my card for today. First, can you believe  that I have been blogging for almost 3 years. It just amazes me. When I first started I did not think that I would last a week let alone 3 years. So, with that said very soon I will be announcing my 3RD ANNIVERSARY CANDY. It will run about a month. Since I do enjoy a long celebration. Secondly, I still have my 350 followers candy going. Please come on and me get there so that I can get the prize out of my way. So yes there will be 2 candies going at the same time. Anybody who knows about me, knows that I love a good deal and when I find one, I always buy more than I need and I don't mind sharing with people who will appreciate it. Well, that is all about the candy accept, I will start going through my stash very soon looking for the goodies that I will be giving away for my anniversary.

Ok, the real reason I am here is to post a new card that I made a few months ago when one of my co-workers decided to move on to bigger and better things. We, gave here a little going away gift and I made her a going away card. She was one of my best customers when it came to ordering cards for different occasions and she never quibbled about the cost as a lot of people will do.

Yes, a  Kenny K image was used along with the suitcases from Magnolia stamps. I used copics for coloring  and I could not find my list of colors used. The papers are Bazzil, I really love their cardstock, with the textures and without. The sentiment for typed on the computer, I used the crop-i-dile cloud corner punch and the ek sucess edge punch which punches two ways, on the edge of a strip. I do love this punch and saw another one that I would love to have. The bling is from my stash. Well there is really not very much that I can say about this card. So I will get right to the challenges.
