Mother's Day Card

Today starts a new challenge at Scrapbooker PhD.  The theme is to create a card for Mother's Day or to use flowers.  I decided to do both.  I made a criss cross card.  The sentiment is on the inside card which you can see below.  The lace is some extra bits that I had in my stash.

This Guy Rocks

 

This is my dt card for Aud Sentiments.  Our challenge is to create a project using any sentiment for a guy.  Our wonderfully talented dt member MC created the sentiment I used.  I decided it goes perfectly with Gus in his rocking chair from Bugaboo Stamps.  I think this card will work for Father's Day this year!

Birthday Card for a Friend

Inside of card:

 

 

 

 

Today's card is for one of my best friends. 

At first I wasn't sure I liked the copic colors

 I chose to color this image but I think I like how it turned out.

Usually, I would choose pastel pink, blue or purple for this image but I

decided to try something different.

Christmas Gift Tag

I made this Christmas tag using a Besties image.  She looks so sweet.

The tag shape was made using the lacy cirle spellbinders die.  The snowflakes are

spellbinders dies as well.  I painted the snowflakes with extreme glitter paint to make them sparkle and shine just like real snow.  I added polar white flower soft to her hat trim and added ultra fine glitter to the snow on the ornament.

Blue Birthday

 

I am having fun making easel cards.  This one is for my sister-in-law's birthday

Blue is her favorite color and I just love this pattern paper with the blues and browns. I bough several sheets of it a few years ago and I was thrilled to find this blue/gray paper in my stash that matches.

I used chunky white and antique white embossing enamel on the card.  I decided to see what it would do if I added some of the embossing enamel to the flowers.  I was afraid the flowers wouldn't hold up to the heat while using the heat gun but they turned out great!

Here is a close up of the flower

Fairy Thank You

Here is another card I made over the weekend.  This is a thank you card for the sweetest little girl. 

Hope she likes the purple hair on the fairy.  After coloring with copics, I painted her wings with extreme glitter paint.  I stamped around the outside of the image with embossing ink and then used Recollections sparkle embossing powder.  After I used my heat gun, I then added the tinsel glitter.  The flower is a coffee filter flower that someone sent to me.  It matches the paper so perfectly.

Bestie Birthday

 

Today's card is a birthday card for my Sister-in-law. 

I used one of my new Besties images.  Isn't she cute?  My daycare kids would love her tights.  Mismatched socks are all the rage with them right now.  I colored her with copics and then painted her dress and headband with extreme glitter paint.  I added stickles to her flowers.  I found this Happy Birthday sentiment stamp in the back of my stamp drawer.  I think it has been back there for 10 years!  Time to use it!

Mother's Day Card

The challenge at Creative Craft challenges is to create a Mother's Day card.

I hope you join us in this challenge.  Just link up your cards to the challenge blog for your chance to win a prize from Crafty Ribbons.

After coloring the wings and dress with copics, I painted with extreme glitter paint.  I  use the hologram paint and it gives a nice glittery finish that dries very fast.  I also painted the butterflies with the extreme glitter paint and then added some stickles on top for some extra glitter and sparkle.

Carrot Cruiser

 

I had another snow day today so I cleaned my craft room and then messed it up again making this Easter card.  We didn't get as much snow as was predicted but more is on the way Sunday night.  Even though my son loves an occassional snow day off from school, three in a row would be too much!

Love You

 

Are you tired of Valentines yet?  I'm not!  Today's valentine is for another sister in law.  I used a Bestie from Sherri Baldy for this one.  I decided to give the card a shabby chic look.  It's not my typical style so it was a little bit of a challenge for me.
