A Dickens Christmas card for CMS design team

This is one of the new stamps from CMS A Dickens Christmas, these were drawn by Guy, it is so nice to have him back again after his illness. This one took some time for me because it has alot in it, I found out later that what I and some of the other thought was a watermelon is in fact a pie. LOL. To see the other wonderful stamps in this set please visit the CMS store at www.copicmarkerscrapbooking.com. To see all of the great work done by the design team please visit www.copicmarkerscrapbooking.wordpress.com. I hope you like my coloring of the ghost of Christmas present.

Telescoping cards

Someone had posted a card called a telescoping card on the CTMH boards and I thought it was really cute and decided I would try to make them, well I made four of them and had a blast, they don't take very long and are much simpler than they look. I hope you like how mine turned out. I used the Art Philosophy cartridge to cut all of my circles and the scallop circles. I will list my sizes from biggest to smallest. the large scallop is cut at 4" the white dasiy for this one is 3 1/2", the middle layer is 3 1/4", white daisy is cut at 3", the smallest layer is 2 1/2, and the white daisy is 2 1/4". The scallop circle can be found on pg 31 in the AP cart book, the circle is pg 21 and the snowflake is found on pg 22.

This is what they look like closed.


and this is what they look like opened, aren't they cute. I got the idea for a snowman in a jar from Paige.

Vendor Fair Dec.3, 2011

I did a vendor fair Saturday at the Ruckersville Elem school, it turned out to be alot of fun. I met some really nice people. Here are some of the items I made to take with me. This has been a really long week, thankfully I had alot of this done before Monday, as things started to get a little off balance.
All of my coloring is done using the Close to my Heart markers

These are treat bags from the Art Philosophy cartridge cut at 5 1/2", they are filled with the little starlight mints.

These next items are peppermint patties covered with cardstock, I used the 2" scallop punch to cut the bases and then used the Art philosophy cart to cut 1 3/4" circles.

This is another treat box using the art philosophy cart, it cuts the french fry boxes, I put holiday life savers in these. These were cut at 8 1/2"

and of course I had to do a display board the new AP cartridge, wanted to show everything you could get from just one button on the key pad.

and this last little goodie was my give aways for free, I cut these fry boxes at 4" (I think thats right) and place a 1" stamp in them. I didn't have many left when I got back home.

Kathie, drew some wonderful little pumpkin stamps for CMS. These are my cards for the design team, I had a blast coloring them, I am tryin to get better at using the greys to get a black look without using the black because I want the layers and highlights. I used the cool greys on the hat, and the warm greys on the kitten. I hope you like my cards, visit http://www.copicmarkerscrapbooking.wordpress.com to see the rest of the great cards our design team did.

Poinsettia cards made with Art Philosophy cart

I have seen so many wonderful cards using the Art Philosophy cartridge and making poinsettas with the flowers on pg 39 of the handbk, that I had to try them, so these are my versions. I hope you like them, I cut the first two flowers in cranberry cs at 3" and then 1 at 1 1/2", I then cut the small green center at 3/4, leaves were cut at 1 1/2. I used my stylus to emboss the flowers and leaves to give them texture, I then sanded the embossing on the flowers just to highlight them, I am not sure if it shows but I edged the flowers using my At You Spica clear pen to give a little glitter look, centers are done with Lemon flower soft. The ovals on the first card were cut at 2" and 1 3/4, the second card ovals were cut at 1 1/2 and 1 1/4.

A close up of the flower, click on picture to make it bigger.

Dragonfly and D1187

I went to the Hampton Stamp/Scrap Art show Saturday with Eleanor, Sonnie and Barbara while I was there I came across a booth called Sweet Stamps and they had a card that I fell in love with because I just love dragonflies, their card was made using a Cheery Lynn Designs die, I didn't own any of these until I saw their card and had to get it. I ended up spending most of my money at the Hampton show, there was so much to see and learn. We ladies had a great time Saturday, after we left Hampton they took me to a little scrapbook store in Williamsburg, it was a nice place, after we left there we hit the Walmart, I just wanted to stop by and see maybe if they had the Cricut catrtridge "Love you a Latte" that I have been wanting but couldn't not find, well I was so excited because they had just one left and it came home with me, I have been wanting this one for awhile. I will be posting a few cards later using this.

I had to play some today, so I pulled out my new little dragonfly die, and decided to try to make a card like the one I had seen. This dragonfly is cut out twice once in black then again on vanilla cream cs, take the black dragonfly and place where the vc one came out, turn over and place scor-tape over wings, now here is where it starts to get fun, you take and turn the card back over, take prisma glitter and rub into wings so it adhears to wings on front, then turn card back over and remove the paper from the scor-tape and place vellum onto wings and then add color to the vellum from back, this gives the wings colors and it looks almost like stained glass. I used Copics to color. I may have to try to do a little video to explain this better.

So this is a close up of my little dragonfly and you can see the two different shades of color that I used.

Mischief, and Paper doll dress up Cricut cartridge

After I finished cleaning my scrapbook room today I decided to mess it up again, the desk looked to clean and neat, needed to make a few cards, I made one for a wedding for someone and then I just had to pull out the paper doll dress up cricut cartridge to make a thank you card for Shaun, he had an extra ticket for the show WICKED, now I have never seen a live broadway musical in my life, I enjoyed this so much, I loved the music, the show, the cast, mainly I had a blast, so of course my thank you card had to be a witch and black and green. I am not including my cut sizes this time only because I forgot to write them down. I hope you like my little green witch.

D1283 Say it in Style and create a critter

Just a quick little card this evening, I wanted to play with the Create a Critter cartridge so I decided maybe to start thinking of Christmas cards since it will be here before we know it, I cut out this little reindeer at 3" and the trees were cut at 2 1/2 and 2". I think the say it in style stamp set is one of my favorites for sentiments I seem to reach for it alot. I also used glitz glitter along the edge of the blue just to bling it up some, but not to much. I hope you like this quick little card.

A little gift for me that made my day.

When I got home today I found a small package in the mailbox from Anne-Marie, well I couldn't wait to open it, a while back I had sent her some stamped images of the tiny CTMH Sticky boy and had been waiting to see what she had created with the images, well I was tickled, she had taken these little sticky boys and made magnets, I love them, and she used some of my favorite CTMH colors to color them with. I just had to email her to say thank you and to make sure it was okay for me to share a picture of them with you.
I hope you like them as much as I do.

Thank you so much Anne-Marie, these will be holding notes by my computer.

Art Philosophy, Roxie and cupcakes

So this morning I decided to play with the CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge and I had found some old cardstock that is not good for scrapping or making cards so I decided to make some card size templates for myself. I cut some different card shapes at 4 3/4 and 5 1/4 to see exactly how big or small they are. I also cut out the 2 envelopes tht are on the cartridge, I did these at fit to page so that I would get the biggest size. I wrote on each template the size of card and which envelope they would fit into ( envelope 1, envelope 2, or a standard 4 3/8 x 5 3/4), also noted the page # the card could be found on in the Art Philosophy handbook. These first 2 pictue are of my templates, and since I had the Art Philosophy cart out well I had to make some cards.

These first 2 have no sentiment on them because I am not sure yet if want to use for thinking of you or whatever. The cards were cut at 4 3/4 base and layers were cut at 4 1/2, 4, 2 1/2, 2 1/4, 2, 1 3/4, the little dragonflies were cut at 1 3/4. I used stickles on the dagonflies bodies just for a little bling. The envelopes were cut at 5 1/4 which is the fit to page size. hope you like them.

These next 2 are also using the AP cart, but with 2 different looks, on the first card, the one on the left, I used the stamp set that comes with the AP cart, the cupcakes were cut at 2 1/2 which is the recommended size listed on the stamp sheet, the one on the right the cupcake is cut at 3 1/2, I used brads to make sprinkles in the icing. The happy birthday is from the AP stamp set. I had no chocolate sparkles so I used a Copic marker to color some clear ones.

These first cards were made using the new roxie papers and the little flowers are from the Art Philosophy cartridge and were cut at 2 1/2" and 2 3/4, leaves were cut at 1" I also did 2 cards today for the CMS design team, will post these later.

On Saturday I went to Eleanor's house where I showed her and Sonnie how to make the Roxie card above, Sonnie then showed us how to make this card. I don't know the name the stamp set we used, I do know it was from Stampin up. This was fun to make.

Bundled buddies and Gnome garden

I have been doing a little crafting this weekend, this first one is a card from the Bundled Buddies My Acrylix stamp set from CTMH, this is the cutest stamp set, I couldn't wait to get it to play with. The white daisy cs is textured (now retired) I tore it in to try to make it look like drifted snow. I then edged it with stickles. All of my little critters were colored with coloring pencils and gamsol.

All product is Close to my Heart unless noted:
C1472 Bundled Buddies My Acrylix stamp set
1381 White Daisy cs
X5761 Sky cs

This next card is for a very special young man by the name of Trent, who is currently at John Hopkins, you can read more about Trent on facebook at Prayers for Trent Williams. Trent loves pandas so I had to make him a card full of them, there is also a tiny one on the inside.

All products are CTMH unless noted:
X5761 Sky cs
X5639 Sweet Leaf cs
1386 Black cs
1381 White daisy cs

Black ribbon
Cricut cartridge Pagoda

And this last item, my friend Tammy came down today and brought her new Cinch to play with, I have a Bind-it-all, but I really liked the Cinch, it was so easy to use and I didn't make any booboos like I do with the BIA every now and then. LOL. We made these cute little 6 x 6 books, Tammy's is on the left and mine is on right. I could have done a little better with my cover but I started to do one thing and ended with another, so the cover isn't perfect but thats ok its for me.

All product is CTMH unless noted:
1381 White Daisy cs
C1470 Gnome Garden My Acrylix stamp set
CC1014 Pair-A-Phrase My Acrylix stamp set

I hope you like the new items, the My Acrylix stamp sets are from the new 2011 Autumn/Winter Idea Book, if you would like a copy just email me at bekah763@aol.com and I will get one to you.

Get well DT cards

As you know several months ago our CMS artist Guy was diagnosed with cancer of the tonsil, stage 4. He has undergone surgry to remove the tumor, and he has just completed some chemo and radiation theraphy. Guy is feeling pretty crummy as he recovers from his chemo, he is unable to work at this time. We have done fundraisers to help him cover his expenses.
Guy was so kind to doodle some stamps "Get Well".
Rather than selling these stamps though CMS as we normally do, we would like to turn your attention to his Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/Protoguy?ref=seller .
There you will the option to buy each image singly, or you can buy the larger sets. Every single purchase will go directly to Guy to help with medical and living expenses as he recovers.
Please visit www.copicmarkerscrapbooking.wordpress.com to see some of the wonderful cards made by our design team, here are mine. Hope you like.
