I just added a new page to my blog. At the top you’ll see a new tab…TAGS or at the side under pages you’ll find the same page name. I made a gallery of some tags my daughter and I created last year for Christmas. This link will take you there too…
Vintage Christmas Tags
here’s one…there are 7 more…
Coming to the USA!
well, it really wasn’t by train but by plane! Our newest grandson is from Ukraine! I had to make a “so glad you’re here” card for him. A delightful two year old that loves trains!!!
Martha Stewart’s wonderful train punches and the checkerboard border punch for the track. I punched five trains and glued them together to get a chipboard effect, same w/the cloud punch.
Square Nestabilities used to make the embossed frame.
My favorite Owl cards
Inkadinkado Owl clear stamp, All Night Media wood grain (I purchased mine at Michaels),SU word & sanded background stamps, Rubber Soul – eyes stamp, Nestabilites oval dies, QK flower, twill and We R Memory Keepers pattern paper.
Chatterbox pattern paper…
Vrrrroooom! The challenge this week at Just Magnolia is to make a shaped card – nothing square! Here’s what I came up with…Edwin is driving now!
The car folded in half into a card….
The card open…
I think it will fit into a A7 envelope the best…
The car is cut on the Cricut with the Graphically Speaking cartridge….some really cool things on this cartridge! Now to go look and see what everyone else came up with!
May is National Salad Month – well, I found this image and it just screams, “YOU CAN’T MAKE ME!”
Close up of the Quickutz mini vegies…
I used Fleuriste pattern paper from Cosmo Cricket and Bazzill Card-stock for the vegies and leaves. The bottom “romaine” is an old leaf punch from Emagination Crafts, no longer in business. I would think, the Punch Bunch or another punch company would have the same image or something similar though. Computer generated phrase – kindergarten is the font.
I like to put lines on my dies with the embossing tool and a mouse pad, to make the pieces look like more than just a die cut or punch out. The carrot does have pen lines. I edge everything w/stamp pad ink and the Tim Holtz blending tool.
Thanks for coming by and remember….EAT those VEGIES!!!
Here’s my entry…
A close up of the posy bouquet…
Another angle on the card…
I used Grape Bazzill card-stock, KI Memories flower die cut 12×12 paper, Lasting Impressions for Paper black polka dot, Beckett Expression Radiance card-stock to stamp and color my Magnolia Tilda flower girl, All Night Media flower border punch, Martha Stewart border flower punch and the EK Success wavy border punch.
I’m used to putting my markers back in the stand when I’m coloring, so the yellows I used for the blonde hair are not in the picture below! They are Y21, YR21 and YR24.
