Hello Seahorse with TLC Designs

 Hi everyone, DT-Steph Ackerman here to share a sweet card using assorted TLC Designs products.

I've used the Zinnia Slimline die along with the Watercolor Naturals Slimline Paper Pack.


 A number of elements from the Seahorse Samm Digital Stamp Set were colored with Copic Markers and then fussy cut.  Drops of liquid pearls added some accents to each piece.


To create the card, I placed the largest die over folded cardstock and taped it in place while running it through my die cut machine.  Since the card would have a flat edge, I also die cut another panel and added it to the card to complete the die.


All the elements were added to the card with foam adhesives for dimension and Hello, from the Celebrate Sentiments stamp set was added above the grouping.

Thanks for stopping by.

Ann Butler and DCC Blog Hop

Hi everyone,  I'm participating in the Designer Crafts Connection blog hop, and this month we are partnering with Ann Butler Designs.



I received the  Black and White Toner Sampler Package and several colors of Deco Foil. Using the rose pattern with blue foil, I created several cards.  


The Toner sheets easily pass through a foiling machine and the color easily embeds itself in the Toner sheet.  Remember to save the foil and use it for another project.


I cut the panel in half, I using one panel as it was foiled and the other I added color with Copic Markers.  Both have a wonderful effect.  


 Sentiments are perfect for using your foil scraps.


Add a foiled sentiment to the cards with foam adhesives for dimension.





I also created another card using the leaf panel and green foil.  After foiling, I die cut the panel and then wrapped it with ribbon before adding it to a card.


Please stop by the Designer Crafts Connection blog to see what the designers have created this month with Ann Butler Designs.


Thanks for stopping by.

Fall Blog Hop with Canvas Corp.

It's time for a Fall Blog Hop with Canvas Corp.


Supplies:
Canvas Corp Halloween Pin Dots
Canvas Corp. - Black on Kraft cardstock
Tattered Angels Baseboard Mist -  Lava
Tattered Angels Chalkboard Mist - Alaskan Salmon
High Impact Paint - Light Gold
Hemp Cord - Black
Just For Fun Rubber Stamps - Pumpkins



I created cute little Halloween treat bags using the Halloween Pin Dots cardstock.  This is a heavy cardstock that I easily cut and scored to create 6" x 3" treat bags to give to the trick or treaters this year.



I stamped pumpkins with black ink then painted them with Alaskan Salmon and Lava.  To add the gradient color, I added additional Alaskan Salmon to parts of the pumpkins.


A touch of High Impact Paint in Light Gold was used to highlight the edges of the pumpkins. 


I fussy cut the pumpkins and popped them on the front of each bag.  Since the bags had no tops, I punched holes in the tops, threaded black hemp through the holes and tied them closed.

Aren't they sweet?


Please check out everyone's projects and leave comments along the way.

Happy Graduation with Tape Technologies


Hi everyone, I am participating in the Designer Crafts Connection blog hop.  This month we are working with  Styletech Craft/Tape Technologies.

With graduations on the horizon, I created a gift jar and coordinating gift bag using the colors of the graduating class - Silver and Rust vinyl.



I began by selecting a jar and with 4 squared areas.  I die cut GRAD from the Rust vinyl using my Cricut.  The vinyl die cut really well and it easily removed from its backing.



Once the letters were adhered to the jar, I began working on the top.  I used Spellbinders circle dies to die cut a Rust vinyl circle to fit the cap.  Next I die cut a smaller Silver layer.  Using My Favorite Things dies, I die cut the graduation cap in both colors.  These were adhered to the cap and a 1/2" strip of Rust vinyl was wrapped around the edge.


Finally, I thought it needed a little dressing up, so I adhered some lace trim from  Expo International,  around the edge of the cap.



Doesn't it look wonderful.  As I was giving this as a gift, I needed a gift bag so I cut  Silver vinyl to fit the front of a gift bag.


Then I die cut a large "G" from Rust vinyl using my Cricut.


I carefully applied the letter to the bag, peeling off the backing a bit at a time so I could get the letter straight.



Then I used the squeegee to smooth out the vinyl to remove any bubbles.  I also added some additional trim across the top of the gift bag so it coordinated with the jar.


Next, I die cut "rad" from Rust vinyl and adhered along the right edge.  Congratulations was cut from Rust vinyl using another metal die.  The backing pulled away easily even from those tiny letters and I was able to adhere it across the top of the bag.


 I put some money in the jar.  After all, what is a graduation gift without some cash!!
