Fall into Autumn

Good morning everyone to DIGITAL DELIGHT THURDAYS! Come and see what our designers have created for you to see this week. There are so many wonderful cards and even a few projects for you to see this week. I want to share with you my little project. What I made this week is called FLAT BACKED TREAT BOX some if you would like her is the tutorial so you can make one. The images I used from DIGITAL DELIGHT are Haystack the scarecrow, Fall accessories set, Fall sentiments set and Haystack from Down on the farm accessories. Remember if you want you can get the images colored or in black and white. This was such a fun card to make. As I show you the different pictures you will see where you add the treats. I printed all the images on x-press it blending card stock.

Your can see the Haystack in the background and added some angel hair to add some fibers. At the top used Martha Steward iron gate border.

                                                                                                                                               

Here are the corner on both ends so you can add the treats. Had some pumpkins in my stash and a pumpkin button and added some scrapper’s floss color orange.

Used Marvy Uchida punch (pink)  scalloped rectangle to cut out the sentiment. Distress ink scattered straw on the edges. The leaves added stickles glitter glue gold, cinnamon, paprika and yellow.

Here are the copic markers. The close up of the scarecrow.

You can get the kids colored or in Black and White.

Do not know what to call these awesome colors I found in my closet in my craft room, so I used some for the background on the card.

                    

The leaves are from Poppy Stamps die called gentle leaf. The inside of the card  used Spellbinders labels 8.

Off to School we go!!!

 

See what our designers have created for you this week

Off to school we go!!! Do you remember that time in your life? I do! I remember the first day of school was always so much fun, you got to see all our friends you have not seen all summer long again and you could wear your brand new dress and shoes, when I went to school we had to wear dresses. kids do not know how easy they have it now, and I had to walk 3 miles to school and back in a dress and we could not wear pants. I grew up in upper Michigan… hahaha I had to walk to school but it was only a couple blocks but we had to wear dresses! We did have lots of snow and it was frozen. Such is life. Welcome to another Digital Delight Thursday! See what our designers have created for you this week. There are so many wonderful cards for you to see this week!  I want to share with you my card. The images I used on my card are SCHOOL BUS and BACK TO SCHOOL SENTIMENT. Sorry I’m a little late posting my card today but my mother-in-law came in yesterday  for a surprise visit for a couple days.

I will try and make this short and sweet so I do not have to keep my mother-in-law in the front room by herself for a long time. Oh.. yes I do not do things right when I’m hurried so I forgot to take the picture of what markers I used (again), so sorry!!! : •(

The dies used are from Memory Box wrought iron fence, arboscello tree and country house. The ABC"’s are from some paper ABC”s I have had for yearssss and I colored them and used versa mark and  clear embossing power and heat set them with my heat gun to make them shine. Pearl Pen colors sunny yellow, red and green. The papers used are from my stash.

The apple is a punch from punch a bunch called (guess what?) apple!!! Spellbinder is curved rectangle.

Here are all the little cuties that are sitting inside the bus. OH!!! I almost forgot I add some Pearl Pen Red for the upper bus lights and sunny yellow for the bottom light. I really had fun doing this card and I’m going to give my card to Emma (granddaughter).

I will be back, I have to upload another card. Now I need to go watch the grandkids so Mon and Dad can go to night school. So have a wonderful day.

Lots of super big hugs, Patricia

This is a little side view. The image I used is from The stamping Boutique and it is called Desk and here is a close up. The 1,2,3 are brads. I’m sorry I do not have a picture of the copic markers I used. Thought I uploaded the picture and deleted it.

I did make another Bag-a-Lope Treat Bag but I have a little story about that one. I found two Whipper Snapper stamps that I have had and I though these would be fun to color thinking they both where ladybugs and not thinking anything about it and I’m coloring away and I get all done and I’m  looking at them and start to think (I should never do that) their faces are the same but the Schell is so much different and I start to laugh it is because one of them is a turtle. Oh well Happy Halloween!

 

I think they still look cute! What do you think? I thought of this saying I’m going to put on the back and this is what it will say: One ladybug said to the turtle, why do you look like a ladybug? And the turtle will reply the artist did not realize I was not a ladybug until after she colored me. Happy Halloween!

 

Here is the side. I add some glossy accents, ribbon is from Hobby Lobby, ladybugs had in my stash and the punch is from Martha Steward called ladybug border.

 

Here are the copic markers I used to color the images.

 

Close up of the images.

I hope everyone has had a wonderful week end. The grand kids started soccer so got to watch them run after the soccer ball, just to funny. We sure have cooled down as far as the weather. Have a good week and until next time be safe.

Happy Halloween

Oh my! This is a first for me. Posting two cards in one day. I’m so excited! I want to share with you that I’m now on the Digital  Delight design team and this is my first card. Out of the NEW RELEASSES I used Devil Kiddles and he is just adorable and the other the other images used are Fall Screechy Crow  and Happy Halloween sentiment. All the cardstock used was from my scraps. Printed the images on x-press it cardstock. Punches stampin up scallop oval, ek pumpkin border, Martha Stewart picket fence, bat, fiskars pumpkin, creative memories cat, spider, ghost punch ?? and spellbinders labels 8. Added some glitter behind the pumpkins color lemon. The pumpkins you see at the top is a book marker.

This is what the insides look like. On the left side I added a pocket so I could add a book marker.

Come to the Circus

Good morning everyone. My heart is a pounding…. I could not find my card this morning and all my notes where with the card. Yes I do have the pictures but I do not think I would remember all the things I have used, I know I would forget something. OK so now I’m ready, we are starting our challenge at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday and the twist for this week is Let go to the Circus. So as it always is anything goes with the twist of Let go to the Circus, if you have not been by you really need to stop by and see all the cards the design team has created, I do have to say they have dome an awesome job for the challenge.

The images used are from Mo Manning they are called Jo Jo and Cotton Candy girl. I merged the two images together. Printed the images out on X-Press it paper, I do have to say this paper is becoming my most favorite paper to use with my copic markers. The other papers are from Die Cuts with a View and I get that at Hobby Lobby or Joann’s and the name is All About Boys Stack.

The ribbon used is from Reasonable ribbon moss olive/white, blue/white, red/white,orange/white. 3 star brads, 5 glitter dots color yellow. I made my own Styrofoam fluff (flower soft) for Jo Jo flowers. Added a small amount of soft pink glitter to the cotton candy.
For the sky used brilliance sky blue and ice blue. Added a small amount of soft pink glitter to the cotton candy. What you think of her red hair? Never done that before. 5 glitter dots color yellow. I made my own Styrofoam fluff (flower soft) for Jo Jo flowers.

Here is what the insides look like. These are the copic markers used to color the images.
