Quiet times

Quite times 2013

I’m back with the Cards for Men challenge #8 and it is anything goes but has to be for a man or a boy card. I have not made a scenic card in a long time, I love to make them.

Quite times 2013 r

I first cut out my card stock with spellbinders die labels 5. I left the die on the front of the cut, on the front I used removal tape on the edges so it would stay in place and add the inks to the sky and the ground area. For stamping the stamps I added post it notes on the white area so I would not stamp in that area. Punched out a 1 inch circle from the post it notes. Using different sponges for each color of ink. The inks used for the sky are memento cantaloupe ink add a little and now put the 1 inch circle on add some more of the cantaloupe trying not to let the circle move now add the tangelo memento ink to the top edges. The grass area used memento bamboo leaves ink. I finished it off with some memento tuxedo black only on the bottom. After I got all the stamps done I removed the post it notes papers and the circle and this is what I got…

Quite times 2013 l

The stamps I used are from stampscapes man with boy, birds, and cows. The scenic background is from The angel company from the set mountain scene. Rounded all the corners with the zutter round it all.

Quite times 2013 i

Inside add another spellbinders label 5, sponged the edges with memento cantaloupe ink. Magnolia doohickeys leaf and memory box pepita border. No copic markers this time. close up.

Thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting.

Hello everyone and welcome to Delightful Thursday! This is my creation for this week. The images I used are from Color My World digi set.  This is an envelop and it makes a awesome color crayon holder and it holds 30 crayons.

Color my world 2013  r

The paper I used is from Die Cuts with a View and the stack is called The grade school. The spellbinder die used is called beaded oval. Border punch is from Martha Steward.

Color my world 2013  l

Crayon punch is from emagination and I know they are out of business and I punched them out with glitter paper. Sponged around the frame with brilliance ink color lime. Add some diamond glaze to the glass. The ribbon was from my stash. Pearl pen colors sunny yellow, red, green and blue.

Color my world 2013  f

This little bag is so easy to make and it is called BAG-A-LOPE, my blogging friend Vicki did the video and I have really enjoyed her video, so it would be nice if you could stop by her blog Stamp Smiles and tell her how much you also enjoyed her creations. What is so nice about the bag is you can use it for anything. The bigger the envelope or the smaller the envelope make the difference on the size of the bag.

These are the copic markers used to color all the images.
