OOPs!

Hi Guys


Well I have done it again, only this time I had my entry for Tuesday Taggers ready on Saturday when I was away for the weekend on a crafty weekend with a few of my teamies and also a few new people that I met.

Here is my entry for this weeks challenge which is Canvas.  I decided to steer away from what everyone else is doing.  They have all done a stretched canvas, I have used a piece of canvas that I got from my local material shop.

I have used 3 different stamp sets for this little card (6" square).  Pocket Silhouettes, Flight of the Butterfly and Tiny Tags.  I have used Old Olive, Garden Green and Melon Mambo as my colours.  I have stamped a mixture of the PS stamps along the bottom of the canvas and the vine along the top of the canvas.  I have used the smallest butterfly (from Flight of the Butterfly) and stamped it in Melon Mambo, using Pink Passion pen to make the dots.  I have made a frame for the canvas from Very Vanilla and stamped around with the tiny tags stamp.  I have edged both inside and outside edges with Pink Passion again to make it 'pop' off the page.  I have then finished the card with a length of Melon Mambo polka dot ribbon.

Don't forget to go and look at the fab work that my teamies have done at Tuesday Taggers.

I hope you like it and until next time.

Happy Crafting

Bus Number 2!!

Hi Guys

If you read yesterdays post you will know what I am going on about.

Here is card number 2 in 2 days.  It is a birthday card for my hubbys lovely Grandma.  I am safe posting this on the 'interweb' as she does not have access or any idea on how to.

I have used Baroque Motifs in the background and the little flower from A rose is a rose in the foreground.  I have then stamped and cut out the full bloom and the bud and layered it up on the card.  The colours I used are Pixie Pink and Melon Mambo for the roses.  For the leaves I used Certainly Celery and Garden Green for the leaves.  I have used the School Book Serif Numbers for the eighty stamped in Melon Mambo.  I have layered these on Very Vanilla and Melon Mambo.  I have done a bow in Melon Mambo polkadot ribbon in one corner.

I hope you like and until next time

Happy crafting

New Product Blog Hop

Hi Guys

To celebrate the fact that we have 11 new products (all the razzleberry, mambo and suede) us SU! demo's are having a blog hop

You should have come to me from Abi.  If you have then you are on the right track.  If you want to start at the beginning then you need to start here at Caz's.

For my creation I have decorated a mirror.  I covered the mirror with primer so I had a good base, (I did this with a baby wipe so you get a nice thin coat, you can always add more)

I then used a dauber to apply melon mambo and rich razzleberry to the frame.  It was a bit bright so I just went over it with primer again to knock back the colour a bit.

To put the tiles on the front of the mirror, I have cut a cereal box into 2 different sized pieces, 3 7/8" x 3 7/8" and 2 3/4" x 3 3/4", I cut 8 pieces of each to give some depth.  I have then cut Whisper White CS to the same dimensions.

Using daubers I coloured the WW card stock with Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry.  I used Soft Suede on the edges to darken them a bit. I have stamped with Live Your Dream and then used sticky strip to stick them to the mirror.

For my second project I used another cereal box to make a coaster book.  I cut the coasters at 3 1/2" x 3 1/2".  I covered half with card stock and the other half with Cottage Garden DSP.

Using WW card stock I cut 3 pieces at 3" x 3" and used the rounded tab punch to make pull tabs for you to journal on.

I have also covered some of the on board So Tweet shapes and added them to the front of my book.

I hope you have enjoyed my little creations and now to continue the blog hop you need to go to Heather and see what fab creations she has for you.

Until next time
