All That scraps Our Favorite Stamps

Good Morning and Happy Friday to you all:-)

Today we are showcasing a project not a card but a project, accompanied by an All That Scraps Image:-) Please go and see what my fellow teamies have come up with at

All That Scraps Blog

I have had this cutie called (Swiss Pixie Violet with a Key), for a bit and feel like I haven't used her enough....Soo I dusted her off and found all these wood bag boxes I had bought last year to make up as Valentine gift holders so yes now I am getting them all decorated and giving them to my friends:-) I have been on a purging spree in the craft room over the last two weeks, I am trying very hard to de clutter and in the meantime have messed my back up so have been in alot of pain!

I cut this little girl out, not my norm but i thought she would look cute with her feet dangling off the scallop Nesties:-)

Here is the box alone with some gold tissue tucked into it that I saved from my Vera Bradley haul hehe

Here was a last minute quickie I added to go inside the box, which I have seen my blog land friend Claudia, over at Pretty Pressings, do with the Magnolia Mini Tilda's so I shrank down one of Januarys Swiss Pixies called Blowing Hearts and popped her into a pretty gold frame I had bought in my LCS, I thought it would be cute for my mom who is in a Nursing home with not much space:-)

Other challenges I am entering this project in are:

7 College kids funds: The use of something in their store which I used swiss Pixies Violet with key and Key & Lock , and red, pink and white colors

Creative Belli Blog: Must have a heart on project which my image has a key heart and there are hearts on her hat, and use a forgotten embellishment, which the bag box has been here for a year or so:-) I am de cluttering and making gifts at the same time:-)

4 Crafty Chicks: Valentines Day/Love theme

Supplies used were:

Images: All that scraps , Violet with Key, Blowing hearts , sentiment from Key & Lock

DP: Crate paper : Paper hearts

Copic markers: E11,00,000,23,25,50,42,44,47,R20,C00,1,3, R20,22,00, 35,37,39

OUR CHARITY:

Reading is Fundamental is the charity I have chosen to sponsor this season. As you all know I am an avid reader and it amongst my very favorite things to do in my spare time. I truly believe that literacy and reading opens up many doors in life for everyone. Not only can you find joy in books but it opens your eyes to other cultures, places and people that is so worthwhile. And just the fact that a huge part of life involves being able to read--to get through school, get a great job and navigate through life. For me teaching children to read early on in life is a MUST yet so many children are not provided with the basic materials to learn to read. So this charity is a non-profit that provides books to children and opportunities to bring literacy into areas that need it!

I used a Lili Of the Valley stamp and used the Copic "y" family to creat the gold effect, it looks yellow but as I used the photo Suzanne put up as influence I picked the "yellow" family to go with adding touches of gold stickles and spic pens

Here is a picture of the colors to use as a guide

and here is the card all done with the extras:-)

Other Challenges I would like to enter my card in are:

Simon Says Stamps: Christmas

MaMi doodles : make it shine

Delicious Doodles: Christmas with lots of embellishments

Supplies used were:

Copic Markers:

Design Paper:

Image and sentiment from Lili Of The Valley
