Spooky Fun Design team cards

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.

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.

X7140B Roxie level 2 paper pk

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.
