Teacher Card

Today's project is from Elaine Hughes.

Lili of the Valley Teacher Card - www.quixoticcards.com

Papers are scraps from my overflowing scrap box.  I believe the cherry print is from an old Stampin’ Up pack.  Why cherries?  Our niece’s class is “Cherry”.  Perfecto!  I used Magnolia DooHickey dies to accent – the lace border and the swirls.  The letter stickers are from an Echo Park kit.
The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Make it Colour Blending Card and coloured with ShinHan Touch Twin Markers.

Hey There!

Today's project is from Elaine Hughes.


I’ve seen a few cards lately using the negatives from die cutting, and this was perfect for creating the sky to go behind Kaylee and her little friends.  I used MFT Die-Namics Flat Bottom Clouds to cut the cloud shapes from my blue cardstock, and layered over some hammered white card.  Perfect!  I then used the MFT Die-Namics Fresh Cut Grass border die to create the grass.  The sentiment comes from the Hey Kaylee stamp set.  I cut one of the MFT Die-Namics Sentiment Strips from white card, stamped the sentiment and then chopped it in half.
I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Make it Colour Blending Card and coloured with ShinHan Touch Twin Markers before cutting them out to pop up on foam pads in front of my background.  I used the colourless blender pen to help create some texture on the turtle’s shell, which turned out pretty well.

Ferris Wheel Fun

Today's project is from Elaine Hughes.

Saturated Canary stamp & Make it Crafty Ferris Wheel available at www.quixoticpaperie.co.uk

I covered the wheel and main supports in paper, and used acrylic paint for the cars, to create a similar look to the paper I used.
To create the backdrop I used a piece of 12×12 cardstock in blue, and added MFT Die-Namics die cuts from Flat Bottom Clouds and Fresh Cut Grass to create the little scene.  I think it looks pretty cute!  Sadly the photo didn’t quite turn out as I hoped, but the lighting here was a bit patchy yesterday.

Saturated Canary stamp & Make it Crafty Ferris Wheel available at www.quixoticpaperie.co.uk

The sweet little character is Birthday Ellie, one of the Saturated Canary images now available to order in rubber stamp form! I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Make it Colour Blending Card and coloured with ShinHan Touch Twin Markers before cutting her out to stand in front of my ferris wheel.

California Kind of Day

 Today's project is from Tami Mayberry.

I began by cutting a white panel. Then I drew a square with my 120 Black Touch Twin Marker. Next I colored it with B67 and added some "water spots" by dotting it with my colorless blender. I stamped the flip flops onto white card stock, colored them with Florescent Green and Pink (F124,F126). I cut them out and attached with 3D foam adhesive. Finally, I stamped the greeting, added a line of bling and mounted it on a turquoise base.


Supplies:
Card stock: Bazzill
Stamps: Market Street Stamps (Chillaxin)
Ink: Clearsnap Fluid Chalk (Charcoal)
Markers: Shinhan Touch Twin (B67, 120, F126,F124, 0 colorless blender)
Bling: Want2Scrap (Sleek Strips)
3D Foam Adhesive
