Representing the US

Hi everyone,
This week at  613 Avenue Create we have our usual Anything Goes challenge but I've added a twist to use your country's flag colors in your design.  We are sponsored by 
Rick St. Dennis and I've used an image called Myataki.

 I used Glossy Accents to add some marble/seed beads 

close up of beads attached with Glossy Accents, it's

hard to see the Star Dust Stickles accents

 I hope you can stop by 613 Avenue Create and see what the rest of the talented ladies have created!  Have a great week!

Hugs,
Kathi

Hi everyone,
     I'm here today with my DT card for the Through The Craftroom Door  Anything Goes Challenge.  The roses were white so I colored the edges with a Copic then used the colorless blender to soften the lines.  Then I added Stickles to the edges.  I also colored the dotted CS with a matching Copic before cutting all of the leaves/swirl.  I used the Stickles on the dress and as earrings and champagne bubbles.

Thank for stopping by!

Hugs!

Got Coffee?

Hi everyone!
     It's time for another 613 Avenue Create challenge!  As usual it's Anything Goes but the twist is for a Male Someone Special.  This week  our sponsor is Limited Runs Digital Stamps.  I've used the Coffee2 image and paper pieced the cup.  The sentiment was a freebie which I forgot to label with the company name...I know my bad!  I searched who I thought it might have been but couldn't find it.

Sailor Girl

Hi Everyone!
This is my 1st post as a Through The Craftroom Door (TTCRD)  DT member!  The challenges at TTCRD are weekly and always Anything Goes.   Today I have a card using the Rick St. Dennis image "Gigi" although I call her Sailor Girl  :)  Anyone who knows my work knows that I love to crop the images I work with.  This is no exception! 

 Nothing like a close up to accentuate your little boo-boo's!  Still learning and getting used to the Copics  :)  I used a Vintage Button stick pin from Maya Road instead of the balloon.  I used a pop dot under the heart but it's hard to see because I colored the edges of the dot red.  Then I used Glossy Accents to attach a vintage anchor button.

I used a new Cuttlebug folder called Cross My Heart then lightly sanded it, also distressed the heart and Hopmeadow Circle die by Memory Box.

I hope you'll stop by to see the rest of the DT's projects.  I really am honored to design with a group of very talented and sweet ladies!  Through The Craftroom Door Anything Goes Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!  

Hugs,

Kathi

Ladybugs & Daisies

Hi all,
This week at 613 Avenue Create I have a new kind of challenge for you.  Our challenges are always Anything Goes but the twist this time is called Create Your Own Challenge.
 

 

Here is my take on the challenge and I used:

Image, Patterned Paper, Solid Color Paper, Die Cut, Glossy Accents, Button, Twine, Ribbon

Our sponsor this week is Fred She Said and the image is from a set called Ladybugs and Daisies.  I colored it with watercolors which I haven't used before.  I think it came out ok.  I used Glossy Accents on the ladybug dots and I made some dots in the center of the flower. I heat set the image and sealed it with with Krylon workable fixative but it still ran.  So that is how I colored the petals...with the printer ink!   

Hopefully you can join us this week!

Hugs,

Kathi
