TIOT Challenge Flowers and Hearts

I have to be honest I am disappointed with this tag my fault Dee kindly offer to help with the stamping and did a great job but in my mind I thought of something different which i did not convey.  I used the wrong card and probably the wrong colour, but we all learn more by our mistakes than we think.  Hugs Bee

This is my DT offering for TIOT challenge this week.  It is an mail box American style, with small cards inside ( 3 by 6 inches ).  I used some fancy pants paper which has been around a while, the image is a gorguss one,  I was able to use part of the image, where I had not stamped the whole image well, see there is only happy mistakes. 
Here's another image

whoops poor angel

Dee decided that she wanted to use the cameo to cut out angel she had bought from the silhouette shop it has been designed by Kenzie Daley.  I suggest we got the instructions up on Kenzie blog, Dee was sure she could do it without these.  After a great deal of hmm, puff and sighing here is the finished angel spot the mistake.

 She admitted defeat and went to  www.3under3andmore.blogspot.com were the martini glass gave the clue to the construction here's the great corrected angel.

  Well done Dee it's great.

My first DT card for the Scrapbook Stamp Society

TIOT Challenge

  The challenge is a  card which is all your own work, so no stickers, no design paper.   I must admit to having a ready stamped image I stamped at stamping club, it is using the spotlighting technique, the image is from stampin up and the ink is not quite navy I think.  I used a 5 by 5 inch card to make an easel card and covered the bottom with a piece of blue card embossed with Swiss dots, the flowers are made with the same blue card cut out to make flowers.  No words as I not sure what sentiment I want to use.  Go and look at my team mates cards here they are wonderful.

The Big Guy.

Santa card that's the challenge on TIOT this week.  I decided to go pre Co cola so not a red Santa.  I used a topper from Joanna Sheen's Victorian Christmas CD and the paper.

I used a spell binders die (square) to cut out the picture to add some dimension and interest.  The corners were rounded with the corner chomper.

The flower was made with a scrap of the card left over from the base.  Hope you like the idea and it might inspire you to try something different with a topper.   Do go and see my team mate brilliant cards on the TIOT blog here and have a go yourself.  Hugs Bee

The Paperlane Challenge Unconventional Christmas

This is the back of an advent house display, no Greens, Blues, Reds as per the challenge found here

I did this stamped  scene so the advent house can be displayed on Christmas Day.
The stamps are all Molly Bloom, here are some close ups of the images, the stamps are all cut out and stuck down.

 

The stamps are all Molly Blooms and coloured with pro markers.
Here a view of the front of the advent house which does not fit into the challenge, but I thought I would show it you.  Have you spotted the dual use of the reindeer antlers ?

Thanks for looking Hugs Bee

TIOT Altered can

Having made this I was keen to post this project, and tried to do so a week early what am I like.  This was a really easy project and I think it looks quite effective.

The can was covered with 12 by 12 paper, no longer in stock so using every last piece carefully.  I covered both the inside and outside and any metal areas were coloured with pro markers.

The pencil and pen are inexpensive ones covered with off cuts of paper, with small bits of ribbon and bells attached.

The snowflakes are punch out ones from glitter card.

The image is a Molly Bloom one coloured with pro markers and the image is raised with foam tape

This was a fun project that anyone could do. Try it and I will come to your blog to see.  So sorry missed a vital bit of info in the original post should not do it late at night, if you take part in the challenge you can win a Craft Barn voucher look on the TIOT blog for details and you will see my team mates wonderful altered cans.  Hugs Bee

TIOT Challenge a different shaped card.

Hi this is a different shaped card I promise, the instructions for making this card are in my previous post, I did try to make a much more complicated card but half way through I discovered the measurements were incorrect.. Life  has been busy beyond measure this week,  I have spent the week making Halloween things for a fundraiser at Debbie's shop, and then helping her do the prep for her Sunday school class and Sunday we spent at a friend's helping him do his Christmas cards, and hours on the phone to HR etc on Monday.  Take care of yourselves Hugs Bee

TIOT Challenge Anything Goes Take to the Skies

This is my DT card, I was planning simple after a suggestion from Dee, and it may look simple but it was a jiggle to get it to line up, but as I like the finish card, I will have to do further jiggling to create more.  Dee said taking to the skies was the Snowman and as she had bought the CD from CC I decided to use it.  The card design was from Nicky of Polka Doodles, it basically a 6 by 6 inch square card basically scored at about 1.5 cm from the fold line on both sides and  then theses 3 score lines are folded to make a M shape.

The papers are printed from the CD with the aperture cut by an oval spellbinder die after the paper was applied. The image and sentiment are rubber stamped and coloured with pro markers, there are liberal amounts of glitter but the photo does not show it to well.
Here is a close up of the image.

The image was cut out and suspended by acetate, so it looks like the snowman is flying.  Have a good week.  Hugs Bee

World cardmaking challenge on LOTV

LOTV  ideas to inspire are having a challenge on there site for world card making day.  I have made a card specially for it and also as a birthday card, I am a little worried it is OTT but it was fun to do.
The stamp image is a 'sassy' little lady found here at Lilli of the Valley she is called Feather Boa I coloured her in various pro markers orange and mounted her on a die cut made by putting two die together to get the cut out.shape.  The feathers are an old die which shouted feathers to me but maybe they are leaves trying to think outside the box, the black gems are from my stash and the paper was from a stamping class.  She is such Fun.  Thanks for looking Hugs Bee
