Moooving On Up!

Hello my crafty friends!  It is time for another Designers Challenge for Pop It Ups.

This months challenge is : Celebrate! - interpret the theme however you want.

 For this challenge, I used a combination of accordion dies to celebrate the promotion of a co-worker. I also combined sentiments from the Farm Greeting stamp set. I kept the color scheme pretty simple staying with black and white like Brownie the Cow.

Here is my card:

Happy Birthday!

Hello my crafty friends. I know, I have been quiet. But I have been crafting. I wanted to share with you a card that I made for one of my Co-workers. She loves purple and butterflies. When I decided to make her card, I knew just which die to use.

For this card, I used that new seamless background tutorial posted by the fabulous Karen Burniston. If you would like to watch the tutorial yourself, you can see it here.

I used the Butterfly Pivot die with it accessories. For the body, I decorated with Elizabeth Craft Designs Glitter Dots. 

For the inside I used the Katie Label Accordion Card die accessories for the sentiment. We needed plenty of room for birthday wishes from the rest of my co-workers.

Designers Challege Day 2

Hello my crafty friends! It is day 2 of the Karen Burniston Designers Challenge. We were asked by Karen to make a simple, easy to replicate card if we did two cards for the challenge. Here is my "simple" card.

For this card, I used the Katie Label Pivot card die. The snow flakes are accessory dies from the Spiral Circle Pull card and the All Seasons Tree.

What is great about this simple card is that you are not limited to a specific religion for this card. I have also made the same card for a Hanukkah as well.

The Stamping Chef Challenge

Hello everyone! Well a new weekly challenge has begun at The Stamping Chef.  The current challenge is Anything Goes! 

For this project I used the new Katie Label Accordion die (available in mid-July).  I have colored up an image called Alyce( Special Celebration Image). This cute little image has been colored up with my next generation Spectrum Noir markers. And here is my finished card ... 

Here is a close up of the image. She was such a blast to color up.

The colors used: 
Hair: GT1 GT2, GT3, BT4
Skin: FS2, FS5, FS9
Purple: HB1, HB2, HB3, LV3
Blue:IB1, IB2, IB3, BT7

I love using the Pop It Ups dies for my cards. It is a fast and fun way to add movement to your projects. On this card I added the scalloped edge fancy frame to each of the inside sides.  I used the included accessory dies to make background and frames for my sentiment. The sentiment was cut using an Elizabeth Craft Designs Die. 
I hope that this inspires you to join in on the fun here!
