CMS DT Under the Sea digis

Kathie, created some great under the sea images for Copic Marker Scrapbooking this time and I had alot of fun coloring them, but decided not to make a card, instead I colored and then cut them out and created an underwater scene to put in a picture frame to hang up. I was in the mood to just do something different and I like how it turned out. I pop dotted the mermaid, fish, and one of the seahorses, I used a wide copic marker to make my ocean, and lots of different colors for the sand. Please visit www.copicmarkerscrapbooking.wordpress.com to see all of the great ideas the design team came up with and to also get your freebie.

Card word puzzle C1494

I adore alot of the new stamp sets in the new 2012 CTMH Spring/Summer Idea book but I think the one that is going to be a favorite is C1494 Card word puzzle, you can make dozens of sayings from just this one stamp set, it also has this great flower on it, I used it to make these first 2 cards. You can stamp the flower like I did but it is great for coloring with pencils or markers too.

This next picture is altered clothespins that I made for Lori, hope she likes them, I got this idea from Nona Davenport. I covered the clothespins with lucy papers and cut 1" roses from the art philsophy cart, the small roses are harder to roll lol, I added a piece of hemp so that she culd use this to either hold pictures or cards.

This next photo is my new homemade light box, got to love youtube, I found a video on there by a guy who showed how to make your own light box, and I had everything on hand so I made me one, I used a CTMH box, tissue paper and tape thats it plus something to cut box with, I got the white posterboard from michaels, this took no time to make, I have the lights for it, I just need to get better bulbs.

A Bowwow, sneak peek from new 2012 Spring/Summer Idea Book

When I was going though the new idea book on pg 83, I came across this cute little stamp called A Bowwow and just knew I had to recreate the card that I had seen in the idea book, I made a couple of changes to mine, but used the same colors and design, this is the cutest stamp. On my card I used faux stitching, and used the NEW ADHESIVE SPRINGS to give him movement, I was so excited to see these in the new idea book, I had alot of fun playing with this card after I had put it together. I hope you like it.

Desk top Display Album Calendar

Next Saturday will be our first workshop of the new year so we will be making these cute little calendars using CTMH My Creations display albums. I want to thank Danica over at the CTMH BB for the template for this. I had some Passages level 2 paper hanging around so I decided to use it for my calendar, these calendars will have pictures on them, I didn't put pictures on this one because am thinking of giving it to someone. I have also discovered that I am a little bit of a paper hoarder so I need to use some of my older papers to get ready for the new papers from the new 2012 Spring/Summer Idea book. I have the new Idea books in and will start mailing them out next week, they go live Feb 1, 2012, those attending the workshop next Saturday will get theirs while there. If you would like a new Idea Book please feel free to shoot me a email at bekah763@aol.com and I will ge one out to you. I hope you like this little calendar. I will list products used at the end of pictures.

Chalkboard and a few things.

When we recieved our new Spring/Summer Idea books there was some pieces of card board that had the center cut out, in the box, I didn't throw them away, I decided I would do something with them and I came up with this little chalk board, I found some chalkboard paint at Michaels and I had some pieces of study card board hanging around so I painted the study piece with the chalkboard paint, its take 3 coats of paint, while that was drying I covered the other piece with my B & T Olivia paper, (what I have left of this paper is now put away for a bit), I pulled out the Art Philosphy cartridge to cut my letters 2.0", roses 2.25" & 3.0" and the little swirls around the roses 2.0". I used a white pen to put faux stitches on my letters. Once my chalkboard paint was dry I put my pieces together using liquid glass, I used my atg gun to hold till liquid glass was set. I hope you like.
