Cards for Little Scrapbook Shop

Good Morning!
I just wanted to share some cards I made for little Scrapbook Shop. I have edited this post to include all the products and info on how I made the cards. You can click on the images to go to Little Scrapbook Shop forums for more detailed images.

Products used for all cards:
Bazzill Basics cardstock in purples
Signo Gel Pens - Black & White
Adhesive - Xpress it tape

"Make Mistakes"

Additional Products used:
Sandylion/Kelly Panacci 12x12 pp "Color - Me Artsy" (in stock, but not yet online)
KaiserCraft Clear Stamps "Circles" (in stock, not yet online)
Buttons
Adhesive - Pritt Power Gel
Stazon Inkpad - Jet Black
Coloured pencils, grey marker (to add shadow around some of the words)

Techniques: Lots of freehand doodling. Circles were stamped onto light purple card and cut out by hand. Additional inner circles were drawn by hand. The edges of the white paper were inked with the black inkpad.

"Outside the lines"

Additional products used:
Sandylion/Kelly Panacci 12x12 pp "Color - Me Artsy" (in stock, but not yet online)
The Crafters Workshop Mini Template - "Mini Diamonds"
Kaiser round gems - light purple & yellow
coloured pencils

Techniques: I traced part of the template in black and turned it around to keep using the same part of the tempate to create the "frame" around the words. I used lots of freehand doodling in white and black to fill it in.

"Thinking of You"

This was a very quick and easy card. Took only 5 minutes to make.

Additional products used:
The Crafters Workshop mini template - "Mini Postage Stamp"
Kaiser round gems - purple

Techniques: I used the edge of the template to trace around the card, and cut it out to look like a stamp. I traced the mini postcard onto light purple card and added the little swirly doodles (also on the template). I cut it out and stuck it onto the card. The words are my own writing.

Have a great day!!

Cards for July 08 Cybercrop at Little Scrapbook Shop

Oh Derr Moi!! I just realised I can share the cards I made for the CC now, as the challenges were all posted up on Friday night.
As you know, I totally love stamping. I also love paper piecing, which is very similar to applique (another love of mine). So, I combined the two to created a challenge. The challenge was to use line art stamps and patterened papers (instead of colouring in) to make at least 3 paper-pieced images and use them in a card/cards and/or scrapbook page of any size.
Here are the cards and layouts I created for the challenge. If you would like to see the step by step instructions, click HERE and you will be taken to Little Scrapbook Shop forum and my challenge.
So, without further ado, here they are. . . you can click on the images for a larger view.

Enjoy.

UIW Class Monday 16 June 2008

And hello once again! *grin*

Here is a photo of my Monday ladies with their creations from class this week. There aren't any photos from the last 2 weeks, as I was sick one week and last week was a public holiday so no class (as everyone had something on).

The card the ladies made was one from a set I designed for Little Scrapbook Shop using the June Monthly Card Kit.

Here are my lovely ladies holding up their creations. . . .

(sorry the pic's a bit blurry - I think the camera was set to macro *doh*)

Here is the card they made . . . .

And here are the other cards I designed with the kit.

I'm Back!

Good morning out there!!

Sorry its been so long. Health issues abound in my house at the moment and most of them not mine lol!

So, here are the first lot of photos for you. I still haven't taken photos of all the stuff I made at stamp Camp, but I have got pics of all the cards I have been making for Little Scrapbook Shop!

Its a Tin Thing!

I just LOVE decorating tins!! I have a tin-thing lol!

This tin was decorated as part of a Design Team Challenge over at Little Scrapbook Shop (LSBS). The DT were challenged to create something using these papers from My Minds Eye (MME) but it had to be OPT (Off the Page). So I chose to decorate a small ProvoCraft tin for blank ATCs.

The turtle stamp is from October Afternoon. He's pretty cute huh! Other products used: MME Out & About patterned papers, ribbons are KI Memories Pop Culture Sashes (distressed with Memories Art Print Brown inkpad), American Crafts Thickers Alpha Stickers, Queen & Co felt fusion, black brads.

This tin was for a Cybercrop Challenge, also over at Little Scrapbook Shop. The tin wasn't part of the challenge, but I loved decorating it, all the same.
Products used are: MME Every Day Tango range of patterned papers, Kaiser bling, stamps from Kelly Panacci and Autumn Leaves, ribbons by Stampin' Up! and Finishing Touch Ideas, letters from MME Every Day Tango range, covered with Glossy Accents (dimensional medium).

This is an altered Maya Road Lunch Tin. This holds my mats for my Cuttlebug. Just the right height. Products used to cover the tin: Kaiser To Have & To Hold patterned papers, Kaiser and generic bling, paper frills from Doodlebug Design, American Crafts Thickers alphabet stickers (all available at LSBS)

This is a tiny Maya Road Tin that we were challenged to alter using our DT stash. Its such a cute little tin. Products are the same as the above tin, except for: Bella Flower and Queen & Co bold flower brad.

And last, but not least, my little Bandaid tin. This lives in my handbag and has come in handy on many occasions - it is really a mini first aid tin, as it contains bandaids, antiseptic cream, headache tablets and antacid chews. Cool huh? Products used: Provocraft Bandaid Tin, Prima flowers, American Crafts Mini Marks Rubons - Ned Jr, blue paint, variety of ribbons, Kaiser bling. The gorgeous patterned paper I won in a raffle for the October Girls Night In! It is from an Urban Lily 6x6 paper pad. YUMMY! (sorry for the slightly blurry pic!)

Thanks for stopping by!!
