ATS Wednesday Challenge - Early Valentines

Hello! It is time for another All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge and this week we would love to see some early Valentine ideas. Although, really, it's not that early is it? I know I have to get started now if I am going to make them for my daughter to take to school! I don't know if I will be that ambitious this year - I may just make a few special ones!




I made a couple of small Valentine cards - they are cut out with the largest Spellbinders Nestabilities Heart and Scalloped Heart. It barely shows up in the photo's but but Cinder the Dragon is very sparkly, and the entire card with Arabella on it just glimmers! I love Shimmer Spritz!!

Do You Have the Winter Sniffles?

Hello! It is challenge time again at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog and this week we want to see Tissue Covers!! (if you haven't made one before, there is a tutorial HERE on Splitcoaststampers). I tend to make "just cards" but I made several of these during the Holidays as gifts. This one is for my daughter who loves light purple and "flying unicorns" as she calls them!



To make my "flying unicorn" I cut the wings off of the new Sweet November Pegasus Breezy and glued them to Meadow's back. I think she looks really cute with wings! The papers are from an old DCWV paper pack that I am hoarding! The top background piece is a piece of dark purple cardstock that has been embossed with a Cuttlebug folder that I first painted with Coffee Bean Glimmer Glam. It has a sort of bronze-y sheen to it. The label piece at the opening of the tissue box is covered with Platinum Stickles. I really like that color when I am going for metallic because it is sort of gold and silver at the same time. The flowers were die cut out of Tim Holtz Grunge paper (thinner than the Grungeboard, but with the same feel. I think it kind of feels like leather) and painted with Twinkling H2O watercolors.

The Details:
Stamps: Breezy and Meadow (Sweet November) from All That Scraps
Paper: DCWV, Elegant Eggplant (SU), Lavender Lace (Retired SU) White for image (Copic XPress)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics: BV000, BV01,BV02
Misc: Cuttlkebug Embossing Folder, Tattered Angels Coffee Bean Glimmer Glam, Platinum Stickles, Sizzix Leaf die, Flower die (PTI), Twinkling H2O watercolors, Brads with gems?

ATS Wednesday Challenge - Celebrate New Years!

Hello! Our challenge this week at the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Blog is to make something for New Years - You could do calendars, wine charms, New Year’s party decorations, or even a banner. I decided to make wine glass charms - I am thinking I could even hang them on the Christmas tree next year!




I used Sweet Novembers Twisted Sisters Azalea and Jassamine for my charms. I stamped them on Shrink plastic with Staz On ink and then colored the other side. Azalea was colored with Copics and Jassamine was colored with Sharpie markers - I think the Sharpies worked a LOT better on shrink plastic! I shrank Azalea first on a cookie sheet covered with tin foil and she ended up with a lot of wrinkles. For Jessamine I put a piece of cardboard over the cookie sheet and that was much better.

I hope you will get a chance to play with us this week!

ATS Challenge - Song Inspiration!

Hello! Today's challenge at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog is to be inspired by a song! I was a little scared of this challenge and then once I got started I couldn't stop and I made two!!


My first card is the card I made for my daughter's 11th birthday, which was Monday. Her favorite song is Avril Lavigne's Skater Boi so I used that as inspiration for her card! I stamped the word "Sk8tr" in the top corner and then wrote "Boi" beneath it, but it is hard to see in the picture.

The Details:
Stamps: Lil Lolita 80's Sookie (Tickled Pink), Later Sk8tr 9The Greeting Farm) - both available at All That Scraps, sentiment from Doodlefactory Urban Sentiments
Paper: Anna Grifith (Zebra Print), Creative Imaginations (cherries and skulls), Echo Park (Tiny Skulls), Prism Intense Azalea and Iced Azalea, White for images - Copic Xpress
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics:
Skin: E000,E00,E11,R00,R20
Sookie:
Hair: E43, E44,E47,RV02,RV04,RV06 all w/V01 over
Clothes: C1,C3,C5,C7,C9,V01,V04,V05w/RV02 and RV04 over
Boi:
Hari: E21,E25,E27
Clothes: C0,C1,C3,C5,C7,C9,B91,B93
Misc: Sizzix Embossing Folder, Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam, Shimmer Spritz, Taylors Tiny Twinkles, Sakura Clear Stardust Pen




My second one is more of a Holiday Card (and it is on it's way to a very special person as I type this!) I had to have this adorable Winter Ella Puddle Jumper when I saw her - she is too cute and then when you add on her Penguin friend and the "Baby It's Cold Outside" sentiment she was irresistible to me! Ever since the Glee Christmas episode I have not been able to stop singing Baby It's Cold Outside, so that is my inspiration for this card!

The Details:
Stamps: Puddle Jumpers Winter Ella - (available at All That Scraps)
Paper : My Minds Eye, Blue?, White for images - Copic Xpress
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics:

ATS Christmas Flowers

Hello! It is time for another All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge and this week we want to see some Christmas flowers!! I chose to use Poinsettias, but you can add any kind of flowers to your Holiday creation!


I was hoping to capture the look of the poinsettias on the background paper so I used a Spellbinders die called Heartfelt Creations Perfect Petals. The smallest petal was still going to make a bigger flower than I wanted so I traced inside it and hand cut the petals out so I would have smaller petals. I curled them a little with my paper piercer and added some little gold gems in the center.

The Details:
Stamps: Cheeky Christmas - The Greeting Farm, Amy R Holiday Greetings - both sold at All That Scraps
Paper: Making Memories, Pure Poppy, Brown (Papertrey Ink), Garden Green (SU), White for image (Copic XPress)

I always love sparkle, and I really went overboard with it on this card!! The silver panels are silver cardstock that I embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder.

All That Scraps Gift Card Challenge

Hello! We have a fun challenge this week at the All That Scraps challenge blog - gift card holders! I decided to try to make my gift card holder in the shape of a present that you could lift the lid off of, but I still wanted it to fit in an envelope like a card.



My finished holder measures 6.25 x 4.5, which is the standard size of card that I make. The base (the Vanilla piece you can see in the second picture) measures 6.25 x 4.5. The "box" of the present is 6.25 x 3.4 and the lid is 6.25 x 1.5. The lid is attached to a piece of cardstock so it is a little sturdier and it is held on to the "box" with a brad in the corner so it can swivel to lift off. Before I attached the "box" to the base piece I set the giftcard where I wanted it to be, and then put glue around it so that once the "box" piece of DP was attached the gift card had a place to slip in.

The Details:
Stamps: Penelope and Juniper - Sweet Novmeber, Any R Holiday Greetings - both from All That Scraps
Paper: Cosmo Cricket, Very Vanilla (SU), White for image (Copic XPress)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Inks

Grateful for Friends

Hello! It is time for another All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge and this week our challenge is to "Be Grateful". I decided to be grateful for friends and used Sweet November's Darby and Penelope for my card. They are just the sweetest of friends!

My Nesties do not actually come in the exact size I needed for my sentiment so I traced the outside edge of one die for the sentiment panel and hand cut it out and the inner most edge of the next size up for my frame and hand cut it. The flowers and leaves are very sparkly with Glimmer mist but I could not get it captured in the photo.

ATS Wednesday - Treat Boxes

Hello! It is time for another All That Scraps challenge and this week we would love to see some last minute Halloween Packaging. My daughter is in Girl Scouts and at her last meeting we were trying our hand at Origami. When I made this cute little Star Box (HERE is a link to a site with instructions, if you want to make one too.)I thought it would make a cute little treat box.


I took my picture without the chocolates in them because they were blocking the view of the stamped images, but I am putting a few Ghiradelli chocolates in each box. Obviously, a few more fit in the larger box which was made with an 8 inch square. The smaller one was made with a 6 inch square of paper.

The Details:
Stamps: CC Designs Swiss Pixies Halloween Hansel and Halloween Birgitta (from All That Scraps)
Paper: K&Co, White for images (Copic XPress)

ATS Wednesday Challenge - Magnets!

Hello! Our challenge today at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog is to make Magnets, or Refrigerator Art!! There are two pieces of paper that I always have on my refrigerator - a shopping or "to do" list and a menu of meals to make with the groceries I bought. So I decided to make some fun magnets to hold them on the refrigerator!!

I found some magnet sheets at Walmart that were very thin and were perfect for covering the entire back of the scene. The words were cut out using my Cricut, with the letter size at 3/4 of an inch.

ATS Wednesday Challenge - Fall Decorations

Hello! I'm sorry I haven't been around as much lately. I have been working on some knitting projects which is not leaving as much time for cardmaking as I usually have. I did set the yarn aside to make a project for this week's All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week we are making Fall Decorations.

I had a hard time getting a decent picture. You can see the fairies a little better if you click on the picture to make it bigger.

I used my Cricut to cut out the word "Blessings" from some K&Co paper. I made a pennant for each letter (is each one called a pennant or the whole thing?) and did some faux stitching and ink distressing around the edges of each one. I hung them on a leaf garland that was on sale at JoAnn's. My favorite part is the 3 Sweet November Fairies (Tangle Goblinshimmer, Bramble Lastleaf, and Spindle Mossyrock) that live in the leaves and are poking their heads out to say hello! They are all 3 available as Digi stamps so I was able to make them larger than card size.


I hope you will have a chance to play along with us this week. There is always a prize up for grabs - Here is what you need to do to be eligible: Make your creations using one of the MANY stamps available at All That Scraps, then link a photo or your blog post to the All That Scraps Challenge Blog before next Tuesday at 10PM EST! Have fun!

It's Yarr Birthday!

Hiya! IT is All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge time again and this week the challenge is "Cards for Guys". Hmmm, well I have to admit, I don't make a lot of those. I started flipping through my images (my stamps are stored in numbered CD cases but I keep a binder (or 2 or 3...) with the images stamped out and the number of the CD case that they are in so I can find them quickly once I decide what I want to use.) I finally decided on Kraftin Kimmies Cutthroat Lizzie. My DH didn't really think it looked like a guy card but I say "What guy doesn't like a buxom pirate wench?" Plus, look, no ribbon or flowers!!


The Details:
Stamp: Cutthroat Lizzie and Pirate Sentiments - both Kraftin Kimmie (sold at All That Scraps)
Paper: Map (Creative Imaginations), Red and White Stripe (My Minds Eye), Dark Chocolate (Papertrey Ink), White (Copic XPress)

It's Clearly Time for Another Sweet November Sneak - and a Challenge!

Hello! Day 2 of the new Sweet November Sneak Peeks falls on All That Scraps Challenge Day so I have combined two in one today! This is Sweet November's Baby Boy With Present, and he will be available on October 4th at All That Scraps! The challenge at the ATS Challenge Blog this week is to make a clear card.



This is my first ever clear card (in fact it was finished up very last minute this afternoon because I had no clear card stock and I was waiting for my order to arrive!!) It was SO much fun to make (if difficult to get a good picture of!) I am excited about making some more!! The blue paper and the sentiment are on the inside of the card and Baby Boy and the two strips of DP are on the outside. I also used stickles and made circles and dots on the front of the card. Next time I think I will stamp on it! I wonder if heat embossing will melt the clear card stock?

Stamp: Baby Boy With Present - Sweet November (from All That Scraps)
Paper: My Minds Eye, White (Copic XPress)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

ATS Color Challenge!

Hello! It is Wednesday and that means another challenge from the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge blog! This week it is a color challenge - Pumpkin, Burgundy and Artichoke! I love these colors! They remind me of my favorite time of year - Fall (even though I didn't make a particularly Fall themed card!)


I decided to make a birthday card using the sweet party girl Azalea! You can never have enough birthday cards, right?! I paper pieced her dress and colored the rest of her with Copics. I gave the artichoke panel some texture with a Sizzix embossing folder and added some faux stitching with a Sakura Glaze pen in green.

ATS Wednesday Challenge Sketch

Hi! For today's challenge at the All That Scraps Challenge blog, we have one of Jenneke's wonderful sketches! I love her sketches! They are totally not the way my brain thinks when I go to make a card (all those layers!) but when I follow her sketch I always end up with a card I am pleased with!!

For my card today I used one of the new Sweet November digi's and colored her all up for Halloween. I decided to make the circle element of the sketch into the moon (colored with Twinkling H2O's - I think they make a lovely moon!) and the square-ish panel into a night sky with clouds for my little Fairy to be flying by!

The Details:
Stamps: Spindle Mossyrock (Sweet November), Amy R Halloween Sentiments (both from All That Scraps)
Paper: We R MEmeory Keepers, Black and White (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Basic Blakc (SU)

I have never made one of these before (don't be shocked!!) but it was really easy and a lot of fun! I used C.C.

ATS Challenge - Lace

Hi! It is Wednesday and that means another fun challenge from the All That Scraps Challenge blog. This week our challenge is to use lace! And I am thrilled to get to show you another of the new Sweet November Twisted Sisters - Jessamine! She, along with all of the other Twisted Sisters, will be available on Monday the 6th at All That Scraps!


I wanted the scalloped rectangle to be longer than it was so I just cut it out twice and layered them with one extra scallop exteding (making it have 5 scallops along the length instead of 4) and then just covered that part up with the strip of card stock and the lace!
