Tricks or Treats?

Happy Sunday, y'all!! It is pouring here in FL right now, so I thought I would throw together a little Halloween project. Yes, it is time for me to start working on Halloween stuff!

I made a Treat container using an upcycled Tootsie Roll container. This would make a cute gift to give a neighbor filled with whatever sweet or spooky treat you like!

This is So Spooky Tilda. She is out of stock at the moment, but I am sure Tab will be getting her back in stock soon. I colored her with Copics and cut her out. She is popped up on top of the doily I sponged with orange and black distress ink. I used 2 different Martha Stewart punches: drippy goo and spooky picket fence. The picket fence is hard to find, but this is a good substitute.
Here is the side view of the sentiment. I stamped them with black distress ink and cut them out. They were sponged with purple and black distress ink and popped up with 3-D tape.

Here is a close-up of Tilda. The Copics I used are:

E11, 00, 000, R30, V09, 06, 04, 01, C7, 5, 3, 1, E37, 35, 33, 59, 57, 55, 53, 50, Y26, 21

We all scream for Ice Cream!!!

Happy Wednesday!! Hope everyone is having a fine day so far. My boys have a friend over to play and we are just hanging out today! Love days like this!

7 Kids has a brand new challenge out today:

Texturize It!

*Use lots of product and embossing to add texture to your project!

I decided we all need a little more ice cream in our lives, so I used Ice Cream Birgitta from CC Designs. This super yummy paper is Hello Luscious from Basic Grey (my new favorite!) I distressed all of the edges of the paper with this tool. Quick, easy and adds lots of texture and dimension! I embossed the teal panel behind Birgitta with a Swiss Dots embossing folder. I added some Stickles to her ice cream and the flowers.


Here are the Copics I used:
E11, 00, 000, R30, BG10, 11, 13, Y26, 21, E50, Y17, 11, RV17, 14, 13, G12, 20

Hawaiian Birthday

Happy Wednesday!! It has been sooo long since I have posted! My family and I took a long road trip to visit family in TX. It was so much fun to see my brothers, cousins and other family. I have been trying to get back into the swing of things since I got back, but had a lot to take care of after my 2 week trip!

I have a new card to share with you using one of the new CC Designs Swiss Pixies stamps.

This is Hawaiian Birgitta. I love these stamps! They are so easy to color and cute! I used some delicious new paper from Basic Grey - Hello Luscious. This paper is simply yummy! I layered lots of flowers and leaf punches on this simple layout. I cut the image out and layered it with some Nesties.
Copics used:
E11, 00, 000, R37, 35, 32, YG95, 93, 91, 00, Y26, 21, E50, E37, 35, 33, 31, R30, C7, 5, 3, 1

Patriotic Birthday!!

Good Thursday Morning to ya! I have a new birthday card to show you today. My MIL asked me to make a card for a friend of hers whose birthday is on July 4th! What a fun day to have a birthday IMO. I used Birthday Tilda for this card and lots of SPARKLE!

I added Stickles to the cake, flowers and around the edges of the stamped image and sentiment. I computer generated the sentiment as I have lost my beloved stamp that had the same sentiment. I think I might have accidentally thrown it out. It was an acrylic stamp, so it probably got lost in the shuffle and ended up in the trash by accident. I punched lots of red and blue leaves and added WOC flowers.

Here is a close-up of Tilda - you can see her sparkly cake!

Gotta get this off to my MIL today so she can mail it off - oops, I am running late!

Supplies:
Stamps - Birthday Tilda (Magnolia)
Paper - PTI cardstock and DP, Bazzill cardstock
Ink - Memento, Copics
Accessories - Stickles, Nestabilities, Fern Punch

It's So Fluffy! 7 Kids Challenge #24

Happy Wednesday, y'all! Hope everyone is staying cool today! It is supposed to be 100 degrees today in jax, FL and the wildfires here are making it very smokey! So, I think I will just stay inside and craft today! Pull up a glass of lemonade and come check out my latest card for the 7 Kids Challenge Blog.

The challenge this week is to make it FLUFFY using felt, suede, fun flock or Flower Soft.

I chose to use the Raspberry Fizz Ultra Fine Flower Soft on Tilda's flowers in her basket! I used the Tilda with Flowing Hair stamp. The DP is some Lemonade from Basic Grey as well as some polka dot Bo Bunny DP too. Tilda was cut out using this Nestie. I inked the edges of the stamped image and the sentiment (CC Designs) with some SU retired ink.

I colored Tilda with these Copics:

Skin - E11, 00, 000, R30

Hair - E59, 57, 35, 53

Dress - E95, 93, 21, 00, 000
