Pull Apart Card

Hey Everybody,

Today I have a card that I call, The Pull Apart Card. Take a look at it. I did two versions of the card with subtle changes.

The first card I made I used a rectangle die to cut out the Santa Hat, then I added real red card stock behind the hat.

I used a real red card base then all of the layering was done with blueberry bushel card stock.

The second card I made, which is what is on the video, was made with a blueberry bushel card base and real red layers behind the designer series paper.

I added Santa's hat to a 2 1/2" real red circle with dimensionals.  I added Mini Christmas Buttons to Santa's hat and the inside by the sentiment.  In the white area of Santa's Hat, I used Wink of Stella.

I'm not sure which card I like best. I need to decide so I can cut paper for next week's classes. Which do you like best?

Here is the video. 

I hope you too can make a version of this type of card. Just find designer series paper, cardstock to match and a stamp set you like.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Blessings,

Sue

The Challenge is EGGS

 Hey Everybody,

I spent another long day at a Sport Card show with my son. It was at Great Northern Mall. It wasn't as busy as last time we were there so I had time to do some projects for my son. I love doing that because the day goes by so much faster. We were there from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

One of the jobs I had was taking pictures of baseball cards on an app. then pricing the cards and putting them in top-loaders if they were one value and just leaving them in the penny sleeves if they were another value.

Another job I had was to put the baseball cards into penny sleeves so they could be priced.

Lisa's challenge today is to use eggs on your card. You can find her challenge here.

When I chose my image, I knew I wanted to do a card with a cut out oval so you could see the little guy inside relaxing. Similar to the sugar eggs they had at Easter that you could look inside. Anybody remember these?

 I stamped the image with Memento tuxedo black ink and colored the image with Copic Markers, and Stampin' Up!-blends. The image is a House Mouse image called, Jelly Bean Break. The sentiment is from a Unity Stamp Company set called, Gretchen Girl.

 

I cut my designer paper the same size as my image panel. The paper is from Impression Obsession and a pack called, Welcome Spring.

 I cut out an oval a bit smaller than the image so it would look like you were peeking in to see him. I added lots of dimensionals to the back of the designer series paper to lift it up a bit. 

I stamped and cut out my sentiment with a heart die. I used a dauber and misty moonlight ink to go around the heart so it would stand out against the designer paper. I added dimensionals to the back of the heart. I also added little eggs on the sentiment and in the image panel. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

Stamps: House Mouse-Jelly Bean Break, Unity Stamp Company-Gretchen Girl

Paper: white, Impression Obsession-Welcome Spring paper pack

Ink: memento tuxedo black, misty moonlight

Accessories: Stampin' Up!-Framelits ovals collection, Heart die, Copic Markers, Stampin' Blends, SU-Easter Assortment little eggs

Techniques: coloring, die cutting

Here are some samples from the egg gallery today. There are so many different and clever ideas in the gallery today. What do you think? What would you make if given this challenge? Thanks for stopping by today. Hope to see you again soon. Blessings, Sue CHECK THIS OUT Splitcoaststampers is hosting 41 challenges over 10 days! Click on the link or the image for more information.

Fall Colors

 Hey Everybody,

Anna's challenge is Fall colors. You can find her challenge here. 

The background was created on white cardstock with distress inks and blending brushes. The distress inks I used were, mowed lawn, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, and barn door. I chose these colors for their brightness and the way they blend well together.

I also blended them because I knew the leaves when dry embossed on the paper would look more natural in color than I could make them by coloring them. They may not look real, but they are blended and pretty.

I stamped the image in Memento tuxedo black ink then colored with Copic Markers similar to inks used for the background. The background was created with distress inks and blending brushes.  

The stamp is from Globeland called, Autumn Fashion Women on Amazon. The sentiment is from a group of Fall stamps that just say, Fall Sentiments.  I framed the sentiment and image with black and added it all to a white card base. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

Keywords: MIX714

Stamps: Globeland-Autumn Fashion Women, Fall Sentiments

Paper: white, black

Ink: Distress Inks-mowed lawn, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, barn door, Memento tuxedo black ink

Accessories: Copic Markers, blending brushes, Honey Bee-Hugs and Kisses gems, dimensionals

Techniques: ink blending, dry embossing, coloring

I stamped in Memento tuxedo black ink then colored with Copic Markers similar to inks used for the background.  I dry embossed the inked panel with a Darice embossing folder called, Foliage. I framed the sentiment and image with black and added it all to a white card base. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

If you were to do this challenge, what would you make with the prompt, Fall Colors?  Here are a few cards from the challenge gallery.  What do you think?  I love that each are so different from the next one. 

We all have different ideas of Fall Colors. That's why I just love these challenges. They get the creative juices flowing and have me looking through my stamps to find just the right one or two to try.

Thanks for stopping by today. See you next time.

Blessings,

Sue

Another Kleenex Batik

Hey Everybody,

I want to go back and talk about Tissue Batik again. I have a couple more samples and a video I did to show you how I did this technique.

Here are my original two cards using this technique.

For this card, I used an embossing folder in the batik tissue after I attached it to my cardstock. It is fall leaves. I also took another piece of the batik I did and cut it out with a coffee cup die and added it to cardstock.  

Here is my latest card using this technique. Once the tissue was attached to cardstock with the adhesive sheet, I used a 1 1/2" circle punch to make the buttons. Then I used a small hole punch to make the button holes.  The background is a new embossing folder called, Softly Woven 3D embossing folder.

Here's the video I made to show you how to make a tissue batik card.

This is one of the sheets I had left over from a previous batik session. I attached this to double sided adhesive sheets so I could use it for a background for a card.

Here is the batik sample I got when I dried the tissue I made in the video. I 

This is my finished card. It is for the Free 4 All challenge where we needed to make a banner. I chose to make one for my home football team. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you give this Kleenex Batik technique a try.

Blessings,

Sue
