Here is the project that I made using the newly released Kitten Gems stamp set. I love making shaker cards, so it only seemed fitting that I do one for this cute project.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzHDS_Yzu8gyVOktxovY7inf0gsBBJFW-zVI5jOaHnsLzA92TapxGW1hV9v5WH2PbA4ROHGebXWI-BJviSbmwyVHGnktMk8FZEGeIoCWjOWr60mZNehPUAeI2eGiozLatVjfq2ird5ZYE/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="1024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzHDS_Yzu8gyVOktxovY7inf0gsBBJFW-zVI5jOaHnsLzA92TapxGW1hV9v5WH2PbA4ROHGebXWI-BJviSbmwyVHGnktMk8FZEGeIoCWjOWr60mZNehPUAeI2eGiozLatVjfq2ird5ZYE/s640/preview.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
To make this card, I stamped out the image of the bow, masked it, then stamped the kitty, this way the appearance is that the bow is on the kitty's head and since I want that to appear in front it must be stamped first. I then stamped out my sentiment.<br />
I had cut seven layers of the WoodGrain frame in grey, once in pattern paper and once in black. I cut 2 sheets of acetate to 4" x 5.25" to fit the frame, and I adhered the panel of pattern paper to the inside of the frame. I added the 'white diamonds sequin mix' another panel of acetate to the top to close the shaker element in, I added the black frame panel to the front and the shaker element was complete.<br />
I colored the kitty using Ohuhu Alcohol Brush Markers, added Blue glaze pen to the eyes for a blue color tent. Added Stardust Gel Pen to the color and gem on the color, and glitter stickle dots to the kitty's panel. A little Lucky Clover Distress Oxide was brushed under kitty to ground her.<br />
I cut the sentiment strip in a angled banner shape, and layered that on black cardstock. I added the entire shaker element on a 4.25" x 5.5" top folding cardbase, and my project was complete.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk_iQK91Vq3SVsDYXf2CA9ovtkrQoBjC2wjSXIpE1jQjv8NlKD9pqmygDFmRtf1ArUk0FU-iMC-mDZCyaGDwsfCJonl24ehkmDiLk2pgmtWIzfz5qaondogilWQVV4Eeq7QDwJiGCw-kk/s1600/PicsArt_05-08-12.02.42.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1305" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk_iQK91Vq3SVsDYXf2CA9ovtkrQoBjC2wjSXIpE1jQjv8NlKD9pqmygDFmRtf1ArUk0FU-iMC-mDZCyaGDwsfCJonl24ehkmDiLk2pgmtWIzfz5qaondogilWQVV4Eeq7QDwJiGCw-kk/s640/PicsArt_05-08-12.02.42.jpg" width="522" /></a></div>
To make this card I used a layering stamp set to stamp out Happy Birthday using a rainbow scheme using LDRS inks. I then used the matching dies to cut the two words out. The inside of the white layer is cut out using MFT Wonky Square Die.<br />
I used a die set from Crafters Companion to cut out the party hat to make the shaker. The on the inside is purple glitter from the <a href="https://scraperfect.com/product/tiny-bottles-of-embellishments/" style="font-size: small; text-align: center;">Tiny Bottle Glitter</a>.<br />
All my layers, other than the foam tape for the shaker section of the party hat are put together using ScraPerfect's <a href="http://scraperfect.com/products-2/best-glue-ever/" style="font-size: small; text-align: center;">Best Glue Ever</a><span style="font-size: x-small; text-align: center;"> </span>.<br />
With all the birthday's coming up in my family, I will be making quite a few cards, and this quick and simple card will be quite easy to replicate.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you have enjoyed this project today, as much as I have enjoyed sharing it with you.</div>

This Picket Fence <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/c/p/Picket-Fence-Studios-4X6-Stamp-Set-Sympathetic-Unicorn-x40279955.htm">"Sympathetic Unicorn"</a> stamp set came in perfect timing. I had a coworker who has been down a bit lately, not like herself. While at work the day after this stamp set arrived I started thinking about what I could do, and I came up with this card. The next day it was on her desk when she arrived and now it hangs on her corkboard.<br />
<br />
To make this cute card, I first stamped the Unicorn and Cloud out with <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Ink/Gina-K-Designs/p/Gina-K-Designs-Amalgam-Ink-Black-x40224557.htm">Gina K Designs Black Amalgam Ink</a>. I knew I would be using Alcohol Markers and this is a safe ink to use. I alternated colors with my markers to color the mane in a rainbow scheme.<br />
<br />
The sentiment is stamped inside the card using the same <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Ink/Gina-K-Designs/p/Gina-K-Designs-Amalgam-Ink-Black-x40224557.htm">Amalgam ink</a>.<br />
The background pattern paper sheet is from Bo Bunny <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Paper-Collection/Bo-Bunny/p/BoBunny-Single-Sided-Paper-Pad-6X6-36Pkg-Believe-12-Designs3-Each-x40279803.htm">"Believe" </a>collection.<br />
I stamped the sentiment on a sheet of vellum using the Amalgam ink and heat embossed using Nuvo Jet Black embossing powder. Using strategically placed liquid <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Multi-Medium-Items/Ranger/p/Ranger-Multi-Medium-5oz-x38239154.htm">Multi-Medium Matte</a> under the sentiment, cloud and unicorn<br />
I was able to adhere the Vellum without it being seen. I finished the card off with some "<a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Embellishments/Nuvo/p/Nuvo-Dream-Drops-13oz-Love-Potion-x40279956.htm">Love Potion</a>" Nuvo Dream Drops.<br />

Had a little fun today making a card for the MFT Challenge this week, as well as the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. <span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Lato, "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Grande", Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 36px;">#springsummer2019clh</span><br />

To make this card I used multiple MFT products including Cardstock in both Pineapple and Lemon Drop. The pattern paper is from the Sweet Celebration paper stack. The sentiment is from Coffee Break, the Cups are from Coffee Date. The background dies are from Blueprint 31. The sentiment is stamped and layered on the Slanted Sentiment strips, and I used Distress Oxide in Squeezed Lemonade with the Sunrise Radiating Rays stencil on the top panel.

Today with my card was made using product from Scrapping For Less including... <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/c/p/Pink-Main-Clear-Stamps-Mermazing-Coffee-x38239375.htm">Pink & Main's Mer-mazing Coffee Stamp Set</a>, which I stamped all over my panel and colored using various colors of alcohol markers. I then did the background using Coffee and Mocha colored alcohol markers to give it a stained look, as if the cups spilled all over.<br />
The sentiment panel is from Echo Park's COFFEE paper pad, which I used one of the cut a-parts and popped it up on some foam adhesive.<br />

Everything is by JilliBean Soup except the peach cardstock. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHPtZfEzomemM_-L0-zYVeB3lOFGTyFI_lgM4fL1SoQ3zO3sK_QPNSP-oD4w-8vNlFTkNr2GnS1MS_79fjPudN_WHzwKxuxCwjIwyMOs4F51njyiDmHcEpY4WOx43FNCCTS7yzElnEKv0/s1600/IMG_20190423_121916.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="688" data-original-width="1280" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHPtZfEzomemM_-L0-zYVeB3lOFGTyFI_lgM4fL1SoQ3zO3sK_QPNSP-oD4w-8vNlFTkNr2GnS1MS_79fjPudN_WHzwKxuxCwjIwyMOs4F51njyiDmHcEpY4WOx43FNCCTS7yzElnEKv0/s640/IMG_20190423_121916.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I stamped the balloon in the space provided in the tag, and die cut two sheets of cardstock using my stitched rectangle dies. I had cut a small piece of the peachy color for inside the tag as well, which is what I stamped the balloon image on.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqq8FvSoLf4Eigd_2LZwfuby2nhrC1YPc7xwWw5E3KhBv0Yp1eOINxxrBL22mz0fAabBBjwTsoYTj3s0M1-HsVnt5ilbiUv4ocSUyWuwcYQIBjAQCdWCHhuu20ob3aPuEOv6A4V47h8JI/s1600/IMG_20190423_122108.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="688" data-original-width="1280" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqq8FvSoLf4Eigd_2LZwfuby2nhrC1YPc7xwWw5E3KhBv0Yp1eOINxxrBL22mz0fAabBBjwTsoYTj3s0M1-HsVnt5ilbiUv4ocSUyWuwcYQIBjAQCdWCHhuu20ob3aPuEOv6A4V47h8JI/s640/IMG_20190423_122108.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
Once I had all that together I went about assembling my card. And pulled out my Best Glue Ever, Perfect Crafting Pouch, 2 tiny bottles of glitter that matched my color scheme and Embellie Gellie (although I ended up not using this).<br />
I swiped the inside of the balloon with the perfect crafting pouch, and poured in some of each bottle of glitter. I then fit that through the hold in the tag and peeled off the backing to have it stick to the panel with the balloon image. I then used a piece of hemp cord to tie the tag closed, before giving this to my friend I will add a gift card to the inside back of this tag. It is perfect size. Just a little Embellie Jellie will hold it too.<br />
I then adhered all my layers using the Best Glue Ever, and attached them to an a2 card top folding card base. I then decided it needed a bit more, so using Pistachio Memento Ink I stamped the stars around the tag to complete the look.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now I don't usually do product reviews, but I wanted to say, I am IN LOVE with the Wendy Vecchi "Make Art Station". </span><br />
<img alt="Wendy Vecchi Make Art Stay-Tion All-in-One Magnetic Surface" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71DEP3zkpZL._SX679_.jpg" /><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I am a LAZY crafter, well I have swelling issues in my legs, and sometimes my neck hurts, so when I am coloring I tend to get comfortable and this product is perfect... the magnetic ruler holds my paper to the board and I can just stick it on my lap and color away in comfort. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When you want to stencil, the magnets will hold your stencil for you, no more having to use washi tape. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;">The magnetic ruler and the grid lines will help with layering your panels on your cards... I just can't say enough how much I am happy for this product. </span></span><br />

*Photos are unedited, I wanted to give the real view, my stencil did not move, my blending worked as desired and now I have a project to finish with this panel.<br />
Anyway, this new product is awesome, for sure a happy purchase for me.<br />
9 more days left in my birthday month, wonder how many more fun things I can find.<br />
<br />
I also finally bought the Vagabond 2 Die Cut Machine, OMG I am so mad I didn't ever get this before, die cutting is now a breeze, just pushing the button it pulls the sandwich through, hit reverse and hit again and it brings it back, OR, I could easily grab it from around the back instead... again LAZY. I sat here Friday and cut so many things for my upcoming cards and was just so happy. Some may wonder why I went with Vagabond over the Gemini... well, I have all the accessories (magnetic platform) extra plates, extended plates blah blah blah for the Big Shot already, which is what the Vagabond uses. I've had my Big Shot since mid 2015 so I didn't have to learn a new machine and new sandwiches and such.<img alt="Sizzix Tim Holtz Vagabond 2 Electric Embossing Extended Platform and Java Standard Pads Die Cutting Machine, 6 In (15.24 Cm) Opening," height="608" src="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81npVFV++ZL._AC_UL320_.jpg" width="640" /><br />
Anyway, signing off, I have a few cards to make to finish out the month and start on May, and with these 2 new products in my arsenal at least it will make it a little easier on me. It was always so much easier just to use my guilatine trimmer to cut the paper instead of using my dies to cut perfect panels, well not anymore... I'm kicking it up a notch starting today!!!LeeAnn McKinneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09077851647929336552noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005929966500946718.post-37652343207322296152019-04-19T09:00:00.000-04:002019-04-19T09:00:02.046-04:00Easter Bunny Blog HopGreetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with a fun project I made using some Lawn Fawn projects from my stash.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
To make this card first I started with a sheet of pattern paper from the Doodle Bug "Hello Sunshine" paper pack. On top of that is a die cut panel that I used a combination of <a href="https://www.katscrappiness.com/collections/ink-pads/products/tumbled-glass-distress-oxide-ink-pad-by-tim-holtz/?aff=2">Tumbled Glass</a> and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxides and blended them together.<br />
<br />
The jar is from the "<a href="https://www.katscrappiness.com/products/how-you-bean-4x6-clear-stamps-by-lawn-fawn?variant=31776958984?aff=2">How You Bean</a>" stamp/die set along with using the add on die set which cut out the inside of the jar for a larger view.<br />
I used one of the images as well as sentiment from the "<a href="https://www.katscrappiness.com/products/easter-party-3x4-clear-stamps-by-lawn-fawn?aff=2">Easter Party</a>" stamp set, as my character.<br />
In the jar is the "<a href="https://www.katscrappiness.com/products/rainbow-connection-sequin-mix-shaker-card-fillers-new?aff=2">Rainbow Connection</a>" sequin mix from KatScrappiness.<br />
The grass and cloud washi tape is from Joann's.<br />

Today I made a project using paper from the <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/paper-pack-easter-1/">Easter Paper Pack 1</a>, the <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/stitched-nested-oval-dies-1/">Stitched</a> and <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/nested-oval-dies-1/">Nested</a> Oval Dies sets, the <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/bunnies-jellybeans-combo/">Bunnies and Jelly Beans Combo</a>, and the <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/grass-edger-die/">Grass Edger Die</a>.<br />
I had so much fun making this card, and I hope you like it. It really didn't take too long once I had the idea of what I was going to do. I used LaLaLand Hybrid Ink to stamp my jellybeans. The Bunny is stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black as I knew I would be using my alcohol markers to color it grey.LeeAnn McKinneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09077851647929336552noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005929966500946718.post-25866596478846563462019-04-15T08:00:00.000-04:002019-04-15T08:00:00.435-04:00Welcome Sweet Baby, an A2Z Blog PostGreetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here and welcome to the A2Z Scrappbooking blog. I'm here today with an adorable Welcome Baby card I made for a friend who had a baby back in February. I am finally meeting her for the first time in a week and am so excited. I have so many cards made (I make them all the time, but never send them).<br />
Anyway, on with the card... Using the adorable image from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/603353023/sweet-baby-sugartree-stamps-instant?ref=shop_home_active_68">SugarTree Stamps Sweet Baby</a> set I printed the image and sentiment, cut the image using my Scan N Cut and the sentiment with the Banner Die from the <a href="https://www.joann.com/hero-arts-stamp-cut-ribbon-messages/15405657.html">Hero Arts Ribbon Messages Stamp/Cut </a>set.<br />
The Ink I used is a combination of Hero Arts Passion Flower and Pink from the Clearly Kelly Miami Collection.. The ribbon and glitter dots are from my stash.<br />

LeeAnn here with 2 cards I made using the Echo Park "Spring Showers" stamp set and some items from my stash.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNMR5JReUh280tZIrvrvVSpcVjp12PJeJZpKTe_l-V2dp5dvx5DQ6LuEciO6j_pYUmx9i5yJT_PTYdAUQxf9YuB5oRmawDBlnGZB1y5uZsi4BdKlkmIux8cnlRVCukzN-G-Sc_zvodV_k/s1600/PicsArt_03-31-01.57.52.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1211" height="570" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNMR5JReUh280tZIrvrvVSpcVjp12PJeJZpKTe_l-V2dp5dvx5DQ6LuEciO6j_pYUmx9i5yJT_PTYdAUQxf9YuB5oRmawDBlnGZB1y5uZsi4BdKlkmIux8cnlRVCukzN-G-Sc_zvodV_k/s640/PicsArt_03-31-01.57.52.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
For this first card I stamped out my images, cut them and colored using Alcohol Markers. I decided then to use the <a href="https://www.scrappingforless.com/shop/Dies/Lawn-Fawn/p/Lawn-Fawn-Lawn-Cuts-Shadow-Box-Card-x38239033.htm">Lawn Fawn Shadowbox Die</a> set and create a fun card. I used GinaK Amalgam Ink to stamp my images as I knew I would be using the alcohol markers, and ScraPerfect "Best Glue Ever" to adhere my images within the card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf9U-IZsQx5R60rZ_avmnVtBM8aCp_RQ2WFjEVXbIuczNEj9Qum3y5OW4CFhDr7615T2S2Q0YKlRYAapKpQaAhyphenhyphenyEp00_RmvjZH0LqimSLGy0MSlImBvzIapxjD3DXFrpRfVK5fntQTIo/s1600/PicsArt_03-26-10.54.08.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1100" data-original-width="1080" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgf9U-IZsQx5R60rZ_avmnVtBM8aCp_RQ2WFjEVXbIuczNEj9Qum3y5OW4CFhDr7615T2S2Q0YKlRYAapKpQaAhyphenhyphenyEp00_RmvjZH0LqimSLGy0MSlImBvzIapxjD3DXFrpRfVK5fntQTIo/s640/PicsArt_03-26-10.54.08.jpg" width="628" /></a></div>
This card was so easy to making using the GinaK Designs Wreath Builder. I used the small images from the Spring Showers stamp set and repeatedly stamped using the wreath builder and my Tim Holtz stamp platform. I colored the images using my alcohol markers, cut 2 circles using a set of dies from my stash and stamped the Hello Spring sentiment using GinaK Amalgam ink. I used foam to pop up the sentiment panel, ScraPerfect glue to adhere my layers together and with that my second project was complete.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Hi there friends. LeeAnn here with an encouragement card I made using The <a href="http://scraperfect.com/products-2/best-glue-ever/">Best Glue Ever</a>, <a href="https://scraperfect.com/product/tiny-bottles-of-embellishments/">Glitter</a>, <a href="http://scraperfect.com/best-cleaner-ever-3/">The Best Cleaner Ever</a>, Gesso, Chipboard Elements, Distress Oxide, Acrylic Paint and a Stencil.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
First I coated the chipboard pieces with Clear Gesso.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEFqrZiKJhjasXkLSQA5T-CvVy371KoV1O2ogCrdYi-wuq2mlc-oW6sD7iKGL_sqJAWd-tj-xe57HM4mvxMr7wgmW5RxWndMEQFOK6PA7JuSe3lDPE0AyC8Th7HeTz4SOD0_c_xflSDp1g/s1600/IMG_20190331_194327.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="688" data-original-width="1280" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEFqrZiKJhjasXkLSQA5T-CvVy371KoV1O2ogCrdYi-wuq2mlc-oW6sD7iKGL_sqJAWd-tj-xe57HM4mvxMr7wgmW5RxWndMEQFOK6PA7JuSe3lDPE0AyC8Th7HeTz4SOD0_c_xflSDp1g/s640/IMG_20190331_194327.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the Gesso was dry I covered it with Antique Gold Metallic Paint.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6fVPvENITuzUiOYw5A-MczOJW9KsIH60llF1eABDepaFHSOsnPB1Kw0xEP5JQ7643DGK91wuiMR6YD65dA_dHFngDIcXzXgAk6ZJMllnjxf8zwtB8djXs569EjRke-LQmqLY1AUrbjkvs/s1600/IMG_20190331_202544.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6fVPvENITuzUiOYw5A-MczOJW9KsIH60llF1eABDepaFHSOsnPB1Kw0xEP5JQ7643DGK91wuiMR6YD65dA_dHFngDIcXzXgAk6ZJMllnjxf8zwtB8djXs569EjRke-LQmqLY1AUrbjkvs/s640/IMG_20190331_202544.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From there I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide and a stencil from MFT to blend this ink background on yellow cardstock. I also added the <a href="http://scraperfect.com/products-2/best-glue-ever/">Best Glue Ever</a> to the back of my now dry painted piece. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifas36YrnMhRPnRby9DtgOgmPl3qcgqD9ab3piodSECaz0SXwiU3_bwyJLrWuDSsNMh4-ozQC_3SiIfDOZ4yeCz5U0gxtS85C9GJZq0Kvg3MwqTzp0gaoz0KTYB8KIDKhGF9MCwRC0W4uC/s1600/IMG_20190331_222739.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="688" data-original-width="1280" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifas36YrnMhRPnRby9DtgOgmPl3qcgqD9ab3piodSECaz0SXwiU3_bwyJLrWuDSsNMh4-ozQC_3SiIfDOZ4yeCz5U0gxtS85C9GJZq0Kvg3MwqTzp0gaoz0KTYB8KIDKhGF9MCwRC0W4uC/s640/IMG_20190331_222739.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once my pieces were adhered to the panel I let the glue dry, which was really quick. While this was drying I cut my black cardstock layer and prepped my card base. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRbYltoBC1GMP8k8x94mdxTRM1pCv-OSoTRhzKHtrQecpKUBQ6QRmqCoBRL9UtEXGSxvK7ex-I2f-SmR9VNqSzcQrgJAbnvGvLjOm6Xu7il6er3d1xPdxPl26filQQN_E9rRgl5xioGZgs/s1600/IMG_20190331_222910.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="688" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRbYltoBC1GMP8k8x94mdxTRM1pCv-OSoTRhzKHtrQecpKUBQ6QRmqCoBRL9UtEXGSxvK7ex-I2f-SmR9VNqSzcQrgJAbnvGvLjOm6Xu7il6er3d1xPdxPl26filQQN_E9rRgl5xioGZgs/s640/IMG_20190331_222910.jpg" width="344" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once this was completely together, I added my <a href="https://scraperfect.com/product/tiny-bottles-of-embellishments/">glitter</a> to the center element, added a ring of The <a href="http://scraperfect.com/products-2/best-glue-ever/">Best Glue Ever</a> added the clear cap. While letting that dry I stamped out my sentiment, added a bit of the Antique Gold around the sentiment panel, adhered it with foam tape and my project was complete. I then used <a href="http://scraperfect.com/best-cleaner-ever-3/">The Best Cleaner Ever</a> to clean up my area.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, Spring has arrived and I am excited to share two Spring Time cards I made today using GinaK Designs "Your Own Kind of Beautiful" stamp set I really love this stamp set and could not just stop with one card.<br />
<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With this first card I stamped out the cacti and cut with my Brother Scan N Cut. I then used a banner die to cut a shelf. I used Distress Oxide in Cracked Pistaccio and a blender brush to make a background.Using Artist Loft Markers I colored up the images and after using stitched rectangle dies and ScraPerfect glue to put my layers together, I used foam tape to pop up the shelf and this card was complete. </div>

I decided I needed a little more fun with this set, and this bicycle reminded me of one I had in high school. Using paper from a 6x6 paper pad for my background and a Spellbinders window die, to make this scene work. I colored the image with Artist Loft markers and adhered my layers using ScraPerfect glue. The bicycle is adhered using foam tape for pop.<br />

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here today with my newest project from <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/?ref=1639">The Stamp Doctor</a>!!!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3JoFNq4NrvaCf7YnO68r7kFOmvgAze6kOyZeAEaEO9CYYzl6ZSX_r7s2AZHcRNIU0GRavuLKP_lA6hD-XNkecNcB93U1knxNlEM6MDJ-8DgCivWqWtxJsJQmsIp1yHRE1nRvJLeeHFak/s1600/PicsArt_03-27-02.18.18.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="790" data-original-width="669" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3JoFNq4NrvaCf7YnO68r7kFOmvgAze6kOyZeAEaEO9CYYzl6ZSX_r7s2AZHcRNIU0GRavuLKP_lA6hD-XNkecNcB93U1knxNlEM6MDJ-8DgCivWqWtxJsJQmsIp1yHRE1nRvJLeeHFak/s640/PicsArt_03-27-02.18.18.jpg" width="540" /></a></div>
To make this project I used <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/pop-a-top-18-die/?ref=1639">The Pop A Top 18 Die</a>, <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/paper-pack-easter-1/?ref=1639">Easter Paper Pack 1</a>, <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/tiny-carrot-dies/?ref=1639">Tiny Carrot dies</a>, <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/egg-dies-1/?ref=1639">Egg Dies #1</a>, <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/grass-edger-die/?ref=1639">Grass Edger Die</a> and the <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/product/bunnies-jellybeans-combo/?ref=1639">Bunnies & Jellybeans Stamp/Die Combo</a>.<br />
First I stamped the bunny then used the Big Shot to cut all my pieces out. I colored the bunny and then stamped/colored the Jellybeans on the pop panel.<br />
Once I layered all the pieces to make me happy, I used The Best Glue Ever from ScraPerfect to adhere all my layers down, and added an action wobble to the bunny so he can play in the grass while hunting eggs and jellybeans.<br />
<br />

To make my project first I printed the image and sentiment from the Sugartree Digital Stamp set "<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/616883115/farmhouse-by-sugartree-stamps-instant?ref=shop_home_active_38">Farmhouse</a>"<br />
I then used my Scan n Cut to cut out the image with a .04 border. Once complete I colored the image using Artist Loft Alcohol Markers (barrel E6 & E18, peaches YR15 & R3 with E10 for the stem)<br />
The pattern paper for the front and the inside both are from the Jen Hadfield Everyday 6"x6" paper pad, and I thought these two would go great with the design.<br />
For my card base I used an 4.25"x11" sheet of Recollections 110lb card stock. I measured in 2.75" from each end and scored down so that I would have 2 folds that met in the middle.<br />
I cut the orange/white pattern paper 2.5"x4" twice for my two front panels. I then cut the wood grain piece 4"x5" for the inside. I then used a stitched rectangle die to cut the sentiment panel.<br />
I used ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever to adhere my panels together and my final act was to add the bucket of peaches to the front panel, and a small piece of washi tape to the back of it so that it will stay closed.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For my project I used 2 of the images from the Sugartree Stamps set titled <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/616883115/farmhouse-by-sugartree-stamps-instant?ref=shop_home_active_38">Farmhouse</a>...<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
After deciding which images I wanted to use (the mason jar of tea and the matching sentiment) I sized them on my computer and printed them with my HP printer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used my Brother Scan n Cut to cut the mason jar of tea image, as well as a shadow for it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used my Artist Loft markers to color the image and layered my pieces using ScraPerfect's Best Glue Ever.<br />
My base is from a Hero Arts Birthday Card kit and thought the color was perfect to go with my image.<br />

LeeAnn here with my Friday post for <a href="https://thestampdoctor.com/?ref=1639">The Stamp Doctor</a>.<br />
Today I wanted to make a card that should Brighten everyone's day...<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
To make this card, first I used a sheet of white 110 lb card stock and the Flip Flop die and ran it through my Big Shot. I then ran the die through again with bright yellow cardstock and then a panel of the Yellow plaid paper from the Easter Pack 1.<br />
I used the included dies from the Flip Flop set to cut out the same bright yellow and yellow plaid for the sentiment panel in the center of the card.<br />
I used the scroll corner stamp from the Happy Day stamp set for the top and bottom corner of the back panel. The inside of the back is where I will write my statement for the friend I am sending this to.<br />

LeeAnn here with the announcement that I have been invited to join a new design team.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
There are so many great items available from ScraPerfect, and I hope you will be as happy as I am to use it all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Today for my project I used the Crafting Pouch, and The Best Glue Ever.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwMN_PvsqP9vCoZvNG5-h4e5EL1hCpCKfBUDex4BCQCNczHmVdjhzcvIZLCHSdqSHGRYs-QO549hiu8ps62eTs_ckNDi5kLCzFe-3ceuIkHTOoxgmt6PGwl3rVUoBNZtrgPimCvavt2Go/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="736" data-original-width="1024" height="460" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwMN_PvsqP9vCoZvNG5-h4e5EL1hCpCKfBUDex4BCQCNczHmVdjhzcvIZLCHSdqSHGRYs-QO549hiu8ps62eTs_ckNDi5kLCzFe-3ceuIkHTOoxgmt6PGwl3rVUoBNZtrgPimCvavt2Go/s640/preview.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
The first thing I did was to use a Spellbinders die to cut two of the the doily form out of silver Rinea Foil Paper, one for each card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaUJqA0jD2ZfIhzdVYOxBfMFJ6306W8P9v1wF2TACH68xZhOnds9snZcSQgjdbr17drVbXIZegQOOOeLM-Lcxc-3w8KNPFWS0NFD-Hmodjq17q8QySm2CnSsjC9vPQQ_1XRX3_vhmI4Uo/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="767" data-original-width="1024" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaUJqA0jD2ZfIhzdVYOxBfMFJ6306W8P9v1wF2TACH68xZhOnds9snZcSQgjdbr17drVbXIZegQOOOeLM-Lcxc-3w8KNPFWS0NFD-Hmodjq17q8QySm2CnSsjC9vPQQ_1XRX3_vhmI4Uo/s640/preview.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then gathered the supplies I would be using to make my shaker element.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The stamp is Starburst Sentiments from Rinea. The shaker form is from MFT. And of course I used The Best Glue Ever to hold it all in place.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPhSRUOJlCg1q3dNfIUl6ghMfN7f5HQY27xI3D3qETbryuuyzNUQnLq__fVwxJjPggseOZbE2q22snS-7cxCD1MGLH6RzNcdWBoTFJnv9V8oJSoG-Q6ZGgxTk0SXF3DYaurEp37lP0EF8/s1600/20190320_235626.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPhSRUOJlCg1q3dNfIUl6ghMfN7f5HQY27xI3D3qETbryuuyzNUQnLq__fVwxJjPggseOZbE2q22snS-7cxCD1MGLH6RzNcdWBoTFJnv9V8oJSoG-Q6ZGgxTk0SXF3DYaurEp37lP0EF8/s640/20190320_235626.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
First I stamped the Happy Birthday Starburst. I decided to go with this one, as April is a very busy month for birthday's in my family.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW5bODkw2uAGF-Sj6f_ygkHahiOoDnlbikfayQR5K6mDzz8uX3t6OmSQcjNYmTZDeD3e-s-fBbaKkpsb2zsIcNjex1koCaVUBufJbYQrDKtg3xMRKEmRw2_PzqyKwAkns-kMrGm7tT-OY/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="767" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW5bODkw2uAGF-Sj6f_ygkHahiOoDnlbikfayQR5K6mDzz8uX3t6OmSQcjNYmTZDeD3e-s-fBbaKkpsb2zsIcNjex1koCaVUBufJbYQrDKtg3xMRKEmRw2_PzqyKwAkns-kMrGm7tT-OY/s640/preview.jpg" width="478" /></a></div>
I glued the stamped panel to my foil doily and added some of the silver bits that remained after cutting the doily out, along with some of the Orange and Yellow glitter bits from ScraPerfect.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_PlqeGoSZiJ61bIgU0zCCnix8TgiBMOfY4RH0Ynx8hTJ-5d1dUAPMEBcEhBjg106SicjoauGGsLuLDmNLz9E1FHRCyBOnaB5yvGRfQnXxX5AWo8o-Z1gmyPjnL8dv2ALMCcVFFIFzV38/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="767" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_PlqeGoSZiJ61bIgU0zCCnix8TgiBMOfY4RH0Ynx8hTJ-5d1dUAPMEBcEhBjg106SicjoauGGsLuLDmNLz9E1FHRCyBOnaB5yvGRfQnXxX5AWo8o-Z1gmyPjnL8dv2ALMCcVFFIFzV38/s640/preview.jpg" width="478" /></a></div>
I then used the Perfect Crafting Pouch to get rid of the static on the Shaker Cover. I used the Best Glue Ever and glued down the shaker cover, as well as the paper element ring. I added this element first to a panel of cardstock that I used an MFT stencil on with Fossilized Amber and Carved Pumpkin Distress Inks to blend for my background, as I really felt the colors matched my shaker bits and stamped sentiment.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMZumGUW0imJc7Dyi8tdoHWqIqySVYJdbHumub8E8NvR0Ijew4BjFu_GTvnbtFXNqXND8vNPORdGw9O4hQxS-hI3dTumySOV7o6ZQQZSrE4Igm9FqX2WVOm82-ph-vdFpgwh6LQ4RgOmw/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="767" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMZumGUW0imJc7Dyi8tdoHWqIqySVYJdbHumub8E8NvR0Ijew4BjFu_GTvnbtFXNqXND8vNPORdGw9O4hQxS-hI3dTumySOV7o6ZQQZSrE4Igm9FqX2WVOm82-ph-vdFpgwh6LQ4RgOmw/s640/preview.jpg" width="478" /></a></div>
For the second card I used the same idea and used a panel from the DCWV Birthday Wishes Stack 6"x6" pattern paper as my background.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR2ZhMh-XV9zjKsw5utjjp5Y6_0JZPtB57oUv0RiE05Pz1yLHLVs-9jLpfXK7YkrFFnWXZUYWw1b91NCiTP9s8JM9RI5xEU62KnVDR53mmtYad1jj6DUIlv1WuzPgXdEQOv7Pec_8U4s8/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="834" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR2ZhMh-XV9zjKsw5utjjp5Y6_0JZPtB57oUv0RiE05Pz1yLHLVs-9jLpfXK7YkrFFnWXZUYWw1b91NCiTP9s8JM9RI5xEU62KnVDR53mmtYad1jj6DUIlv1WuzPgXdEQOv7Pec_8U4s8/s640/preview.jpg" width="520" /></a></div>
With this last one I decided to add a little more pop by way of 3 die cut balloons in coordinating colors to match the background.<br />
<br />
When my project was complete I used the Best Cleaner Ever to clean my stamp, stamp block and stencil. I followed that by wiping everything down with the Perfect Cleaning Cloth.<br />

Today, I had some paper piecing fun.<br />
I used the <a href="https://bit.ly/2EGmHnr" target="_blank">Bear/Bunny Paper Piecing</a> set and cut from both black and cement colored cardsock. I then placed the pieces where they should be using <a href="https://bit.ly/2IGUp14" target="_blank">Glossy Accents</a> as my adhesive.<br />
My card base was made using the <a href="https://bit.ly/2UmklAH" target="_blank">Oval Pop A Top</a> die, and the <a href="https://bit.ly/2VExGo6" target="_blank">Nested Oval</a> die set.<br />
I used pattern paper from American Crafts as the background for this little Panda that I pieced together. This was the closest I could find to simulate bamboo leaves.<br />
The sentiment came from the <a href="http://bit.ly/2EPxHA7" target="_blank">Happy Day</a> stamp set, and stamped in VersaFine Onyx Black.<br />

LeeAnn here today with a Congratulations card I made welcoming a new baby to the family.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaU9I_206N2JusXUKuWmDLJJ_zz9uGECz7hd5nS47m-Afm515JeiHN5vMQyIX-1OoTSn-2Dcpk0-tzjKU3Ur80MLWoldpu0yzxsWzfMeOyPXrs5sp6aNboCwUCvZN3KD6pgQzQ8DhdQTM/s1600/preview.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="811" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaU9I_206N2JusXUKuWmDLJJ_zz9uGECz7hd5nS47m-Afm515JeiHN5vMQyIX-1OoTSn-2Dcpk0-tzjKU3Ur80MLWoldpu0yzxsWzfMeOyPXrs5sp6aNboCwUCvZN3KD6pgQzQ8DhdQTM/s640/preview.jpg" width="506" /></a></div>
Making this card was challenging for me, I stepped out of the box for myself and did coloring and masking on a one layer card.<br />
I used the Janes Doodles "Noah's Ark" stamp set, and stamped the waves out on <a href="https://scrappingforless.com/product/inkadinkadoo-stamping-masking-paper/">Inkadinkado masking paper</a>, and cut it out. I stamped the first set of waves where I wanted them and placed the masking paper over them. I then stamped the Ark Scene where I wanted it on my card panel.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzc30ANwUp5R7FQ_363HgJN74mamXxg1cQyR-jUahOjQq09TIE_M5x9_EmsxQKLfw4UveFE0jadRQTLMVKrL3MhMFbmAAJQRIbQewoZdELG5iEELh9l63dfkYYwzYgFEZP2ShHzUyYgTQ/s1600/20190315_004532.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzc30ANwUp5R7FQ_363HgJN74mamXxg1cQyR-jUahOjQq09TIE_M5x9_EmsxQKLfw4UveFE0jadRQTLMVKrL3MhMFbmAAJQRIbQewoZdELG5iEELh9l63dfkYYwzYgFEZP2ShHzUyYgTQ/s320/20190315_004532.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
Once that was complete I removed the masking paper to see how it appeared the Ark was behind the wave.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I then finished stamping my waves and started coloring.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Using my Artist Loft alcohol markers, I started coloring my image, using 3 different blues for the water to show depth. To complete my card I cut frame using a die from my stash and added it to the panel, added my panel to my card base and addressed the envelope to mail it off.<br />

My weekly prescription from <a href="https://bit.ly/2WFTl0m" target="_blank">The Stamp Doctor</a> has been filled.<br />

Today I chose to use the Stamp and Die set of <a href="https://bit.ly/2TuFLOR" target="_blank">Champ The Monster</a>. First I stamped the Champ and hat images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, as I knew I was going to be using my Alcohol markers to color.<br />
I colored up my images and used the matching dies to cut them out.<br />
I searched my stash for a pattern paper that I wanted to use for my background, and found some shimmer cardstock to use for grass. So, using the <a href="https://bit.ly/2C5MbKr" target="_blank">Grass Edger Die</a> I made a couple of cuts so that I could layer the grass. I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and finished off the project with some strategically placed clear dots.<br />

Timing for this one could not have been any better.<br />

For this project I used the <a href="https://scrappingforless.com/product/sizzix-baby-carriage-stamp-and-framelit-die/">Sizzix Baby Carriage Stamp and Die set</a>, first I stamped the Carriage using Jet Black Archival Ink on Rinea Foil paper in 3 colors, Pink, Star Pink and Silver.<br />
Using the dies that came with this set, I die cut the 3 carriages and 3 of the rattles using the same foil. I cut the different pink foils and used them on the silver carriage, one for the bassinet part and the starred for the cover.<br />
Using other dies in my stash I cut the 3 circles from white and pink card stock.<br />
The background cardstock is from Echo Park Birthday Wishes paper pack.<br />
