A New Video

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

Today I have a new video to share with you. I often get questions about how I go about creating my cards and have had requests for a video on my card making process, so here it is:

Here is the finished card (previously posted)

The image is from La La Land Crafts. I will be using this image for my Copic Course over at Scrapbook Centrale next week(Friday April 29th). If you are in the Montreal area, and are interested in attending, you will find the information ~here~. I will also be doing two classes early Mary…I give you the details once the store calendar goes up!

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day and let me know what you would like me to cover in future videos!

Friday Sketchers DT Card

Happy Friday! I am scheduling this post Thursday night because this morning I am teaching a Copic Coloring Class at Scrapbook Centrale. This one is an introduction to copics and I will be doing an intermediate one next Thursday! Lots of fun! We will be working on this fun image from La La Land Crafts stamps and another little boy one from the same collection. I {heart} these cuties and they are so much fun to color! i am definitely going to get me some more tomorrow while I am at the store!

The paper is fresh from CHA and I got them over at Scrapbook Centrale as well. They are from Pebbles and American Crafts! So fun and bright…I am ready for spring!

This week, my sweet fellow DT Janneke has created a fabulous sketch for us all to follow. I had so much fun putting this together! Thanks Sweetie!

Our wonderful sponsor this week is: Cute Stamps and Cards! I order from Jacqueline and my packages are always here so fast! Love this store!

That is it for me! I have a few more things to do to get ready for tomorrow. Always mayhem when we all have to leave the house together! ACK! Usually I get to go home after dropping the kids off or I am going to the gym….don’t think I can get away with my yoga pants and a sweat-shirt tomorrow! HeHe!

Friday Sketchers #130 & Wags’nWhiskers Challenges

Happy Friday! This week it is my turn to host the Friday Sketchers Challenge and so I hope that you will find some time this coming week to try out my little sketch! Christmas is just around the corner so I am sure we will be seeing a lot of fabulous Christmas cards this week!

For my card, I have used this fabulous Stampin’ Bella stamp that was illustrated by the very talented Mo Manning! I just love the name “I Even Like the Box”! It reminds me so much of when my guys were tiny babies and ignored all their Christmas presents to play with the boxes that they came in!

  ***All supplies Courtesy of Scrapbook Centrale***

Stamps: Stamping Bella Mo Manning M0123

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Paper: Bazzill Cardstock, DP ?????

Coloring: Copic Markers, White Gel pen

Embellies: MME Lost & Found Brad

Martha Stewart  Snowflake Punch

Be sure to check out all the samples that my fellow DT sisters have created for your inspiration. 

Aud, Bea, Claudia, Tanja, Jacque, Janneke, Jorunn Inge

Just want to mention that I will be teaching another Introduction to Copic Markers this coming Thursday morning (December 2nd) over at Scrapbook Centrale. If you are in the Montreal area, maybe you would like to attend! All details can be found ~here~

My next project is for this week’s Wags’nWhiskers Challenge which is to create a gift holder, tag, etc. Here is what I came up with:

These tags can be used as book-plates or as tags for your presents. They were super fun to create and I couldn’t stop at just one!

The images are all Wags’n Whiskers and are available to purchase ~here~.

The tag itself is created using a Papertrey die and matching stamp set. I sponged all around the edges to create a more finished look.

Hope you can join us in our challenge this week. As always there is a great prize up for grabs! Check out the rest of the Divas’ fantastic creations. I am totally going to be trying some out!

 

Thanks for stopping by today! I will have a new card to show you tomorrow!

Sketch Saturday # 126

Happy Saturday! Hope that the weekend is off to a wonderful start for you all! I have a video tutorial on the Whiff of Joy Tutorial and Inspiration blog today and in it I show you how to use the wonderful new WoJ dies  in the Cuttlebug.

As well don’t forget you about my WoJ candy. Here is the link!

Now on to today’s card! Once again Jo has created a fabulous sketch for this week’s Sketch Saturday Challenge!

I fell in love with this Swiss Pixies image the moment that I laid eyes on it so I was super happy to see that Scrapbook Centrale had this one and many other of the delightful CC Designs stamps in stock! I also found this designer paper in the store and was inspired by the beautiful colors in it to color up my image.

• Stamps: CC Designs Swiss Pixies ~ Fall Birgitta
• Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
• Paper: SU! Kraft & Bazzill Cardstock, Echo Park Life is Good DP
• Coloring: Copic Markers

I hope that you will find the time to join us this week over at the Sketch Saturday Challenge. We are being generously sponsored by The Stamp Shoppe.

Thanks for swinging by today! Have a good one!

Chef Tilda Apron Card

Happy Wednesday! I am scheduling this post the night before as I have a Cardio-Tone class tomorrow morning. I have no idea what this really entails. I take Celtic dancing classes but aside from that, the last time I took a group exercise class at a gym was BK…before kids and it was just called “Aerobics”! LOL!  So I have fingers crossed that I can make it through the whole class!

The project that I have to show you today is one I made to enter in the Magnolia-liscious Highlites challenge which is “We’re Cooking”. Basically you are to create something food related and/or contains a recipe. My “recipe” is actually the supplies that I needed to whip up this little apron! Here is what I came up with!

 

I remembered seeing apron cards a long while ago but where? I could not remember where! So I googled it and found a wonderful template ~here~.

• Stamp: Magnolia Chef Tilda from 2009 Yummy Tummy Collection
• Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
• Paper: Bazzill Cardstock, Fancy Pants Happy Together Designer Paper
• Coloring: Copic Sketch Markers
• Other Supplies: Diamond Stickles, Brown Grosgrain Ribbon, Prima Flower,                Martha Stewart Lattice Punch, Jumbo Brads

Most of the supplies came from Scrapbook Centrale so if you are in the Montreal area you can pick them all up there! You will also be able to see this project in person as I am creating some samples for the store and will be offering some Copic Coloring classes there as well! Stay tuned for the dets!

This was such a fun project to do and I hope it inspires you to try a little something new!

Thanks a bunch for stopping by!
