Shakin' for Ice Cream


Happy Wednesday!


 
It's time for a new challenge over at the Scrapbooking Queen

I had a heck of time getting my idea into this.  I had the card pictured in my head...but every time I went to put it together, it was terrible.  :-(

Congratulations to the Happy Couple

Happy Friday!
 
 
It's time for a new Cardz TV 3D challenge.  The challenge theme is 'Wedding/Bridal Shower.'
 
 
I used only black and white cardstock to create this beautiful card. 

For the rings and heart (between the doves) were colored with Copic Markers. 
 
I added a bit of Diamond Stickles to the ring.  For the black trim on the cake, I used a black Copic Spica Pen. 
 
 
 
 
The sentiment is from Cardz TV "This 'n' That" stamp set.

Yeti Wobble

Happy Tuesday!!

Time for some Action Wobbles Inspiration. 
I created a cute card with one of my favorite stamp sets from Pretty Cute Stamps.   



The Yeti was put on an Action Wobble. . 
 (in 'action')

 The wobble was bit big for my image, so I cut it a bit to fit
I have the cutting file for this adorable Yeti...so when I saw the new stamp set, I JUST had to have it.  It is so fun to color.  In fact, I've colored him a few times because my 6 year old loves him just as much as I do, and he takes off with my colored images to put in his room.  :-D 

The mountains were cut with my Cricut from the Create a Critter cartridge. 

I cut the mountains out of black and white cardstock.  I layered the black cutouts to create the mountain range.  The white mountains were sprayed with Liquid Pearls Mist Spray, then the tops were layered on the black cardstock to create 'glistening' snow tops. 
The background is a piece of Xpress Blending card colored with Copic markers.

Supplies:
Pretty Cute Stamps
Copic Markers
Xpress Blending Card
Cardstock
Teresa Collins Enamel Dots
Liquid Pearls Mist Spray
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Sending Sunshine with Action Wobbles

Happy Tuesday!
 
I am posting on the Action Wobble blog with today's inspiration.
 
I created this cute little card to send to my daughter.  She is visiting family, and I LOVE to send her little Hellos. 
 
 
I used Peachy Keen Stamps February 2014 Stamp of the Month Set.  This set is perfect for action wobbles! 
 
I stamped the bear body and 2 heads on to Xpress Blending Card.  The second head was put on an action wobble. 
 
The trees, sun, and clouds are all colored with Copics.

Patriotic Pinwheel

Happy Tuesday!!
 
I am so excited to share with you my first creation for the Action Wobbles blog.  
 
 
I LOVE how this card turned out.  It's so festive...and fun. 
 
When I think of the Fourth of July, I think of cookouts, fireworks, and family.  And that leads me to pinwheels...I LOVED pinwheels as a little girl.  Instead of an American Flag, I wanted a red, white, & blue pinwheel.  Perfect, don't you think?
 
 
I designed my card in the Silhouette Software.  All pieces/mats/banners were sized in proportion to each other.  The pinwheel is an Echo Park cut file from the Silhouette store.  One thing I did add to the pinwheel file was a shadow.  This was so that my action wobble had a base to attach securely to. 

(action wobble on pinwheel)
 
 
This sentiment from Cardz TV is perfect for the pinwheel and action wobble.
