Wine Gets Better with Age Post it Holder

Hi everyone,

Our challenge at 613 Ave Create this weeks sponsor is Bugaboo and the theme is make a post it note holder or anything goes. I am using this stamp called make it snappy friends. I printed the image onto neenah cs and  water-colored the image with cotmans watercolor paints. My card base is Staples 110 lb vanilla cs cut at 4.25 x 11 and scored at 5.5 and then the top half was folded in half again. The DSP is from DCWV. It doesn't show much but I wanted the card stock front to look good when it was folded. I added recollections kraft cs around the image for more of a focal point. I stamped two of the SU petite flowers polka dot stamp and punched it with the matching punch. The flowers were inked using kiwi kiss. I had two green gems that I put in the center of the flowers. I was just going to glue the post it note onto the bottom of the easel but decided to make a box to put it in instead. The first box I made didn't fit the post its so I had to recalculate and redo it. I used MS border punch and added a small edge on each side and on the front of the box. They were distressed with SU crumb cake ink. The sentiment is from another bugaboo stamp. 

Thank you all for stopping by, happy crafting and have a fabulous day!

Tea Party

Hi everyone,

Our sponsors at Time 4 Scraps blog is Sassy Studios and Robyns Fetish. I am using this cute Tea Party image. I printed the image onto DCWV DSP and fussy cut the images out. I then used  copic marker R02 and colored around the edges of the cup and saucer and tea pot. The spoon was colored with N2. The card stock is Staples vanilla 110 lb cs. I used coffee spill stencil to add the stains on the table. I also added the R02 around the edges of the card. I like how it turned out with all the glitter in the flowers. 

Thank you for stopping by, happy crafting and have a fabulous day!

Rose Easel Card

Hi everyone,

My name is Carol and my blog is Happy Expression and I am here today to share with you on Shes A Sassy Lady's Blog. Thank you for having me join you Sheila. 

My share today is an image from Fitztown. I printed the image onto neenah cs and colored it with copic markers. R81,83,85, YG 61,63 67, G03 I added white hilights to the rose using sukura white gel pen. For the background I used SU flower silhouette and stamped with olive green. I then took my pink marker and added a bit of pink to some of the flowers. I added a few pearls , I knew it was going to be an easel card so I used sizzix circle die and cut out the different layers. The card base is neenah cs, The DSP is from DCWV older stack. The pink around the circle is R83 copic marker. The sentiment is MFT stamp and cut with SU sentiment and modern label punches. I drew a small ladybug on the bottom right black copic and R 24. 

Thank you for stopping by, happy crafting and have a fabulous day!

Hi everyone,

This adorable digi is called monkey business from Deedees Digis. This is August Digi of the month. 

I used the pre colored image and fussy cut around the image. The background paper is from the safari stack by DCWV. I layered it onto bazzil cs and the base of the card is neenah cs. I used SU modern label punch for the image. I added a black tie  and a blue heart to her hair. I had cut the brad part off and glued the heart but I now notice the heart is missing. Oh well believe me it did look adorable. I hope you will join in on the challenge this month. Deedees digis are just too cute not to make a project with it. Wouldn't this be adorable on a scrapbook page.
