Snow Tasty

Image
Hello!  It's Friday!  I'm so happy.  It's been a hard week!  I haven't been feeling well... and yeah really need a weekend.  But to start it off I have the best thing EVER a new release image from Sandra Caldwell that you can find here . I also did something that I don't usually do... which is to tape the video of my making one of my typical Christmas cards :)  Hope you enjoy that video: and here is my card.  The paper is from American Craft and I think it was from the target dollar spot. I added some ribbon and just had fun coloring this guy with my copics. I'm not sure if I will be entering challenges or not... So that's it for me!  Have a fabulous day and weekend!!!! Hugs

OMG.... I hate hate hate making box cards lol and when I saw that this was the showcase choice for this month over at Art By Mi Ran I've been dreading it... and procrastinating.  It's a good thing that Mi Ran's image are sooooo adorable that they get the inspiration going. Here's the image that I worked with   Hello Mr Snowman . I decided that if I was to do a box card I would get ready for Christmas time and all the gift card wrapping that I need to do.

Top Tip Tuesday - Last make from me

Image
Hello everyone!  It's time for my last post for the great team  Top Tip Tuesday  they are a totally awesome group of ladies!!!  And now I will be playing in their challenge! The challenge this time around is Cut it and it's sponsored by Shape EZ.  For my make I used the great   EZ Poinsettia Tip: If you don't have a cutting machine or like me are too lazy to hook it up you can just have fun and print it out like other regular digis. I used paper from Authentique Believe.  I sprayed the printed digi with some Heidi Swapp pink mist then once it was dried I cut it up and then sprayed it with water with some glycerin in it.... And I crumpled the flowers.  It makes them look more like fabric.  I used a little bling for the center of it.  The edge were all done with the sharpie pen.  I used my new Sizzix ornate labels to cut out the great sentiment from  Create with TLC .  The doily was part of my pack this month from La land craft club. I'm entering this card in

OMG I'm sooooo last minute... and have soo much trouble blogging.  So anyway here's 2 progressive challenge before they are over! The 1st one is the great Deedee Anderson one that you can find here  this time around I decided to make a little ICAD with my make and it's done with some left over paint from my gelli plate as well as some left over little papers.  The image was colored with my copics.  I edged all around it with some prima chalk ink called old road.  I added some bling as well. For my other progressive challenge make it's for the Outlawz freebie progressive challenge .  This month the image was a great one from ppinky dolls.  And it's the 1st month that I realized that there's a progressive challenge there!!! So had to play.  Gave me the chance to get another Christmas card done as well. The paper is Jolly from American craft.  I used my Nellie's ovals as well.  The sentiment is from  Create with TLC that's it for me....

This month we want you to celebrate SBS, Slinky Tart and Paper Shelter Here's my 1st make using  Zombie Babe Betty  from Simply Betty.  I thought she would be perfect in my altered children book about coffee! On this I used some acrylic paint.  I added some great washi tape that my wonderful friend Erin gave me!  I did some stenciling with my Dylusions skulls small.  I used my ice chai gelato on the sentiment.  I also added some book text that I had used to empty my brush with.  I love the look that it gives to the paper afterwards.  I used my big white pitt pen afterwards.  The sentiment that I used with this comes from  Create with TLC .
