More Cards for 365 Cards!

This is my card for Day 137 over at 365 Cards. The challenge was to use something to bind the card together. I decided to use fabric. I used some fabric scraps that I had lying around and stitched them onto the two diffrent colors of cardstock (Stampin Up's Green Galore & Yo Yo Yellow). I made the Green Galore be just a tad shorter so that you could see the Yo Yo Yellow from the front of the card. I then stamped this quotation (Inkadinkadoo) onto some white cardstock and then using Copics airbrushed the rainbow onto the white. I just love how this card turned out!


365 Cards - Day 140

Here is my card for Day 140 over at 365 Card Challenges. The challenge was to use paint (which is not my strong point). I used the Making Memories Tag Maker and painted the tag in a blue paint. I then stamped Good Luck from Papertrey Ink's Mega Mixed Messages in PTI's Spring Rain. I used a silver Painter's Pen to dot the edges in silver. The papers are PTI's Spring Rain and the new Enchanted Evening (loving this color, probably the most beautiful navy blue ever!) and I used the Cuttlebug Divine Swirls embossing folder, and finished the card off with some PTI Enchanted Eventing Satin ribbon. If I had to do this card again, I would probably make a few changes, it did not turn out exactly the way I wanted.

More Cards...

Here are some more cards from past challenges over at 365 Cards. This is Day 13-16.




The tag on this one is made with Nestabilities Ribbon Tags using the Cuttlebug.


The dragonfly is an SVG cut using SCAL. I adorned it with Skittles.

Still Catching Up!

I am still working on catching up to the ladies over at 365 Card Challenges. Here are the cards for Days 9-12. I have some more coming so keep a look out for them!

This card was made completely out of scraps and done in about 5 minutes.
This is similar to what I plan to do for my Christmas cards this year. The image here is Dustin Pike Cocoa Soak and I colored it with Copics. The picture is my youngest son Mason, isn't he cute? I also used the Basic Grey magnetic snaps on the tag and the back of the picture so that the recipient could take the picture off of the card and put it on their refrigerator. The tag and the pocket were cut with the Tags, Bags, Boxes & More cartridge.

This was also made from scraps (K&Company) and I used some copper craft wire to thread the buttons so that it looks like the wire is holding the button on (which is something my husband would probably do!)


Really simple card. The mailbox is cut from the Wild Card cartridge.

365 Cards Challenge

So here are the cards that I completed for last week's 365 Cards Challenges.


I made this background paper using the Shaving Cream technique, which is so much fun!

I made this background paper using the Heated Pearl Ex technique. Messy, but really cool looking!


The cake was cut from the Pooh & Friends cartridge.



This image is from Dustin Pike, he is an amazing artist.





I used the Nestabilities Ribbon Tag to make this tag.

I'm Playing Catch Up!

Ok so I just recently discoverd 365 Cards. These ladies have set out to do a daily challenge for a full year. They are so creative and have come up with some really cool challenges, so I have made a decision. I am going to play catch up! They started these challenges back in March and I am going to go "back in time" and catch up! Wish me luck! So here are my cards for Challenges 1-8.

Used my Nestabilites to cut all these circles, really turned out cute. I think this card would make for a cool masculine card too using the right papers, and twine instead of ribbon.
So easy! Used my brayer to ink up my Cuttlebug embossing folder before embossing for this neat background paper

Used my Copics to color this flower ( have I mentioned that I am addicted yet?)



Not thrilled with the way this one came out, but it's alright. I used the Rubber Band Technique to make the background paper. So easy and fun!



So simple. I could make a ton of these if I had to!





Really simple, and very glittery between the glitter cardstock and the gemstones!





Again I used my Nestabilites to cut the circles.





I used the Making Memories Tag Maker for the tag, so easy!
