U R Amazing, A7 Card

Hello friends!


 I hope your day is going well. I cannot believe August is gone!!! It seems like I just turned around and poof! it was gone ;)... Anyhow, as the children have started school, we have started with the BD party invites so in an effort to stay ahead of the game I started to create a couple of cards or children we know pretty well and have birthdays coming up within the next 2 weeks. The first one is another attempt at a " One Layer Wonder" card, these card style has given me a hard time but I am stubborn and I know I wont rest until I master the skill ;) the problem being that some how, I always begin with a very clear idea of my design and it slowly but surely morphs onto something else LOL!

Here it is:




I used 2 sentiments from " Sea Ya Soon" Pretty Cute Stamps set to create the " TV" announcement. I also used PPPR " Little Football" image.

Basically this card was made using the masking technique, as I  inked the "field", heat embossing the "side, end zone and yard" lines as well as the "lights". I added the "peek a boo" window to the front panel using the Cricut Explore. The goal posts, aisles and stands were colored using Spectrum Noir Markers. here is the inside, ready for a message :)

Day 2 of Exploring Watercolor Mediums

Hello crafters!  I hope your day is going well. I am here to share my fun work 😉for day two of Exploring Watercolor Mediums over at Altenew Academy. In today’s  lesson Jen Rzasa invited us to experiment watercolor on non floral images, using watercolors with the black outline heat embossed technique. I don’t currently own a large geometric image that resembles the Arabesque Medallion used in the lesson, so I have to dive in my stash and see what other geometric images could work. Here are the results of my experiment: Even though I like all of them,  I prefer  the “mandala”, maybe, because it was more time consuming to double trace ( once with permanent marker and a second time with an embossing marker) the stencil image and then stamping the individual circles.  Of course, working late at night, my brain fried, I made a mistake😖, I was so disappointed I almost threw it away, but being that I am short on watercolor paper I hesitated and had to figured out a way to salvage it 💡: by c

TURTLEY kind ;)

Hello friends!  I hope your day is going well. I wanted to share with you an idea for gift tags using cookie cutters and paper clay. This is the tag my oldest child help create for week 3 SHMK challenge: Children. Inspired by this weeks theme we also  made Alphabet shaped cookies and gave a few young friends their names covered with their favorite color frosting, they were gone before I could take pictures!!! I  have enjoyed Jenniffer's challenges this is a cause that speaks to my heart and we encourage our kids to be polite and kind always :) this just feels good! Onto the project ;) My littlest nephew loves TMNT's Leonardo and he has been wanting a "lounge" set actually he calls it "soft clothes". He has eczema and it is aggravated by clothing with a high nylon or polyester percentage and unfortunately all the PJ sets our there are we found have a  high polyester or acrylic percentage. So, I had to go get some cotton fabric and luckily enough I found
