SIP121 Tic Tac Toe - Hello

Hi everyone I'm back again for the latest challenge at SIP! I found it to be a bit more challenging than normal!  Since you have to have all of the elements in your design... well I went for the Leaf, Wood and Vellum option!  Funny story, I had everything on my desk and was ready to get crafty, so here's what I came up with!

I used Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves, Simon Says Stamp Hello Painted Die, ARC Crafts Wood Veneer! 

I started by die cutting 3 leaves and 5 hello dies!
I did the leaves with Angora Watercolor, in green, red, orange, brown and yellow.
The hello die was stacked and glued to create some depth.
I added a simple gold square to anchor my design. Lastly, I ass just a touch of Gold silk!

Here's a side shot of my card :)

Thanks again for visiting my blog

Good morning everyone.... today I'm back with a cute no stamping needed card.

I know what you are thinking, but Eva I love stamping,  duh and me too.
But there are times when we need something but don't have the right stamp.  Today I've focusing on my Scan n Cut which to be perfectly honest has been sitting on the shelf for a while now. 

Sad I know! 

A recent surge in users has given me the push I needed to say I'm going to use it, and if I make mistakes, so be it!  Well it works awesome, it however lacks the wham that other electronic cutters have to offer, and I am hopeful that Brother will create new designs. 

Okay on to today's card. I started cutting the Noel on my Scan n Cut, it's just one of the many built in selections you can do. Next I pulled out a piece of the Lawn Fawn petite paper pack Lets Bokeh in the snow. Next came the ARC crafts wood veneer which comes on a pretty good sized roll.
To give the card a nice bit of support, I added a layer of craft foam under the top layer.
in the end I decided to add some of my Little Things by Lucy's cards Sequins and some AC light blue twine. well that's about it.  Oh, wait the card is a normal A2 size (4 1/4 by 5 1/2), with the top layer being a 1/4 smaller at 4" by 5 1/4".

Until next time

My Friend

Hey I'm back... I've been having trouble putting my cards together in the past couple of days!

But it seems like some of the mojo is back... hopefully! Most of my crafty friends know flowers are not my normal stamp type... but I'm glad I chose them for my project today.

I started on my card today by taking out my new roll of white birch wood tape from Arc Crafts, which I laid on a piece of cardstock, and stamped in Stazon Black. I actually bought this wood tape for some Christmas cards I'm making for an upcoming Craft Bazaar.

I really love how it looked on the crisp white cardstock, along with Simon Says Stamp Flowers on my Mind stamp set. I did the flowers in SSS Pale Blush Pink, and Memento Black.  Once it was dry to the touch, I run it through my big shot with my SSS Rectangle stitched dies. Final touches were some white twine and some Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins.   My cardstock today is from Simon Says Stamp its thick cardstock which is a 120lbs, and awesome for card bases...

I did adjust the sketch a bit, mostly flipped it.. but I think it looks fabulous! 

Until next time...
