Hi Friends, 
Thanks for all the entries on the last challenge, they were really really fun and Camping was something I really enjoyed doing until I discovered room service. I would never think of eating in bed at home, but somehow having coffee delivered to my room while still in bed is certainly appealing

Are you one of those folks that loved school?   or were you the type who had parents that thought it was like pulling teeth to get you out of bed, because you dreaded the thought of going to school?

DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge #116

THEME:  Back to school

                                                                         

I made four back to school cards -- a series kind of thing-   I really had crafters block on this one.  Once I started playing with the pens, the idea came to me. Back to school means fall is here and  I  just want to enjoy the last days of summer.  This past week the liquid amber in our front yard has dropped leaves and I am anticipating an early fall. A quarter of the  leaves on the tree have changed color

I used the Locker talk cartridge for the fun locker and lock image and then colored them in with Copic markers. How fun was this?  Lots

I did the same thing with the little milk carton

 For this chalk board I used DCWV chalkboard paper and the background was drawn with the CRI-KIT gel pen, then cut out I used a prismacolor pen to color in the areas that were drawn, I am very happy with these results

For the finally I just had to use my favorite color, again I used the copic markers on this one. I love that the Cri-KIT pens make the lines for me it is almost like a coloring book

Supplies used:
CRI Kits pens to draw all school images
A2 size True black card stock
Jenny bowlin back to school bingo cards
paper trimmings (cc)
locker talk (cc)
Ribbon: 3 girl jam

Good morning Friends,

It is time for glitter!!!!!!! I have waited too long in the season to start working with glitter again. How fun is this?
I have a series of bell ornaments that I sometimes put on the tree and other times I just put thm on ornament hangers to display. I love to see the light shine through, showing the complete spectrum, reflecting on a wall or ceiling


HERE IS A CLOSE UP OF THE CARD:

The ribbon is from my stash
I used  Creative Inspirations Resplendence gold and angel dust for the bell ornament. I used PTI Kraft  and Basic white card stock I embossed the white with Kassies' brocade, I really ike the festive look that it gives the Bell/Ornament.
I used the TC- December 25th  cart. for the image  I used paper trimmings (cc) for the trim which was cut from coredinations, and put on before I glettered, giving it the clean look it has

I like the Clean look of this card .

MAY 5, 2012 ***SATURDAY*** NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING DAY-LAYOUT

REMINDER: DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY challenge ends tonight


Good Morning again,




Welcome to my second post today celebrating National Scrap-booking Day and Showcasing the products from Shop Pumpkin Spice.

SURF'S UP

This is one of my favorite places to go on vacation Hawaii -- any island any time of year and Luau's I even like the poi.

This project was a lot of fun, as I said earlier, my S-I-L switches out her B-day from one year celebrating Cinco de Mayo the next year Hawaiian.  One year we happen to be over there at the same time, so we stopped at their island before heading to ours and had great time.

We were all asked to give a tutorial on one of our projects, so I chose the layout.
Here is  a video on how I made the layout: feel free to fast forward when you want.

Here is a link to the video:

Thursday January 12, Blue, Silver, White Snowman card

Oh my I just love this card This just made me so happy after I made it.  I used enjoy the seasons and paper trimmings. the background paper is a combo of ETS and PT I cut the trimming out with paper trimmings on silver paper and printed the background paper, snowman clothes and the winter  from ETS.

I used silver stickles for the heart and the sentiment is from My Pink Stamper. Winter treats and sayings, I used Jenni Bowlin soap powder for the ink.

This is an A2 card on PTI stampers select

Snowman cut at 3.5

trim: cut at at .7

winter cut at 1

Monday Morning - Cricut circle challenge and MPS stamp set Winter treats and sayings

I fell in love with these two papers. Is there such a thing as Glitter intervention,  I think I have this bling personality trying to come out in me-- (I wish I could have the I want to clean my house person come out) . I didn't even have to use glitter on this it was already glittered for me.  The white paper is just plain  white glitter paper (if  you can call glitter plain) The other is embossed glittered paper. I really like the way this came out.
Both papers are DCWV. The tag is PTI stampers white.
sentiment
MY PINK STAMPER "Winter treats and sayings."  I used Tim Holtz festive berries ( isn't that a great color.

See you all later.
