Another Trip Around the Sun

 

This is my birthday card for my youngest sister. Her birthday is early in May, and I wanted a playful tone to it. It's a milestone birthday so I think she'll love the humor. The actual greeting is one I found on Pinterest. I put it into my "Words" board, where I save the funniest, punniest, most affirmative, positive sayings, quotes and greetings.

This is a 6x6 inch easel card. I love making these because it gives impact when there is an opening line and a closing line. The first photo is with the card closed-what would be pulled out of the envelope. The 2nd photo is open and standing up. That's why you see the words "Did you know that" twice. I pulled out butterfly stickers from my folder to decorate the card and some designer paper I had left over from a previous project for the base. I used a Posca marker for the words. I have a stash of letter tiles and Scrabble tiles that I was able to use on the inside.  

I remember when my mom came home from the hospital with my new baby sister. I ran home once the dismissal bell rang. There she was, in my mom's arms, a little blondie. It's great that she and I have a supportive, meaningful relationship. We live in the same town and often get together for weekend grocery shopping.

My other sister lives in Germany. She's coming in to visit during the birthday weekend and we're surprising my youngest sister with an overnight to a location we've all never been to. I made homemade strawberry schnapps for us to toast to. It's going to be awesome...

Celebrating at Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog

 For the last two weeks Scribbles  Designs has been celebrating its birthday. I wanted to make another Birthday card for my DT make, this time using Brrr-thday Chef and Birthday Cake. You can find these adorable digis at the Scribbles Store by just clicking on their names.

I was inspired to  create this card by the small square behind my sentiment. The mix of colors drew me into a forgotten drawer of leftover papers,  in which I found the striped one I used as a background for my card face.
The digital image inspired my sentiment, which grew into a two-part sentiment and changed the design of my whole card into an easel card.

If you can't read the sentiment, it reads,

"I made some cake for your Birthday...Your candles didn't fit on just one cake!"

And the sentiment inspired me to print out several Birthday Cake images, all of which I colored with my trusty Copics and fussy-cut each and every one of them for my card. I don't think you can see it but the background paper on the card inside is embossed candles. Does anyone have a fire extinguisher?! LOL

 I haven't made an easel card in quite a while, and I don't know why not. I love puns and two-liners, and easel cards lend themselves perfectly for these kind of sentiments. I think you may be seeing more easel cards from me this year!

Meanwhile, go join the birthday party at Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog. Create a birthday card, party favor, decoration or any birthday-themed project and link it up for your chance to win some awesome prizes from the Scribbles Store.

Ike's World Challenges Celebrates Easter and Spring

It looks like Mother Nature has finally settled down into a new season, Spring. Nature is always a great inspiration for art in any form, so it makes sense for Ike's World Challenge Blog to offer an optional twist of Spring or Easter to its Anything Goes theme.
Everyone in my family knows I am a comic, so I created an easel card featuring flowers and bunnies, but...I had to twist it into a punny card. I think easel cards make the best riddle cards to deliver that punchline, don't you? So, do you know how many rabbits it takes to change a light bulb? 

One! If it hops right to it! (If you groaned, then my pun was successful) I used two images from Ike's Art, Bunny on Shelf and Smashing Idea. Instead of trying to color in the light bulb, I decided to keep the image uncolored but print it on white copy paper.

You have until Sunday to link up your card or project at Ike's World Challenge Blog. The theme is optional and you may use any images you like to play along, but if you use an IKEsART image, you will be entered twice into the voting for a gift certificate to the store. Happy crafting!  

Having Pun at Ike's World Challenge Blog

I couldn't resist one more time! The theme is "Pun Intended" over at Ike's World Challenge blog, and I created not one, not two, but three cards for this challenge. For this card, I used two images from Ike's Art: "Shhh: and "Spring Fairy".I love puns (I think you can tell by now). This one is a little wordy, bu by splitting my pun in two, I was able to fit the following:

"A hole was discovered in the Nudist Camp wall..."

"The police are looking into it."

You have just two more days to make us groan over the puns you use to create your projects. Bring them on!!

Make It Punny at Ike's World Challenge Blog

 Due to my obsessive love for PUNS, I created several cards for the newest challenge over at Ike's World Challenge Blog. This is my second DT make, using an Ike's Art image called YAY!!

I created an easel card because I think its design gives the best presentation of a punchline. I've thrown a little bit of everything onto my card today, including eleven cents! If you can't read my joke, here it is:

A woman called the hospital where a child was taken after swallowing some coins.

When she asked how the child was doing, the nurse replied,

"No change yet!"

The first time I heard this pun I groaned so loud I almost woke my husband. That's how I rate puns, by the size of the groans I make. A good pun should do that to you. Have you seen the TV show "The Glades"? The main character tosses off quite a few puns each episode.

I hope you join in the "Pun Intended challenge over at Ike's! Winner gets credit toward purchases from Ike's Art Shoppe!

It's Raining Quirky Dogs and Cats

Just a reminder that the new Quirky challenge is to use a dog or a cat on your project this month. Sponsor is Crackerbox Palace Stamps, and I made an easel card with Crackerbox Palace's "Spot the Dog". 

I love easel cards, especially when I have a "two-part" sentiment. Above is my card closed, the way it would look coming out of an envelope. I love the expression on Spot's face, don't you?!

Below is the card open with my punchline. This is what our silkie terrier, Wilson, thinks every time someone goes into the kitchen. Although he will go for a walk just as many times as he would like to eat. The boy can walk!!!

Get your hairy or furry muse working and create a card or project with the theme of dog/cat. Then link up at the Quirky Crafts challenge blog this month for your chance to win prizes!

Celebrate with the Quirky Challenge Blog

Another winter-y Sunday keeps me holed up in my craft room, warm and cozy. Not complaining!! Come on, Old Man Winter, bring it on! Any excuse to play in my craft room...

So today, the snow outside inspired me to play with this Stitchy Bear digi image for my DT make for the Quirky Crafts challenge blog. Stitchy Bear is the sponsor this month. The image is called Lake Winter, and I couldn't wait to use the lacy paper doilies I snagged at my local thrift store on this card. I gave the image a light teal color wash with Copic BG10 before framing it onto a card using assorted shades of teal. The bright white really makes my image pop!

I used a toothbrush  and some white acrylic paint to flick a flurry of snow over the lake. I found a floral spray of silver along with a tiny bow to add to my snowflake embellishments.A spray of tiny pearls "lifted" from an old flower arrangement and some hand-drawn stitching complete my card today.

Have you linked up your celebration card or project with the Quirky Crafts challenge blog yet? This is the midpoint, so you have plenty of time to come join the fun! Whether it's freezing outside, or starting to boil over, depending on your hemisphere, I hope you have some time to craft!

It's Time for TIC-TAC-TOE at the Outlawz Challenges

I don't often create cards for guys, and yet I have so much fun doing so, you'd think I'd be whipping them out willy-nilly! LOL
Well, today I created this very masculine card for the Outlawz Greetings challenge. Their theme this week is to choose a line from the TIC-TAC-TOE Grid and create a project, anything, as long as it uses the three items in the TIC-TAC-TOE line you've chosen, and a Sentiment on the front.

I got to play with an awesome image set from Dee Dee's Digis called "Tool Time." This digital set includes: 9 outline images, 9 pre-colored images, 9 white-filled layering images, and 9 sentiments, in JPG and PNG file formats. All set elements have a resolution of 300 dpi/ppi, and are easily resizable to fit your crafting needs.

When a sentiment is broken into two parts, I like to create an easel card for a bigger impact, especially those zingers that make us smile or laugh. Here, I created the front of my card with the toolbox image, colored with my trusty Copics. I "framed" it with a few photo die-cuts and added the first part of the sentiment.

When standing up, the second part of the sentiment delivers the zinger, and I used the pre-colored image of a screwdriver to "bring it home." 

I chose the TIC-TAC-TOE grid line that asks for "CHARM, IMAGE & WASHI TAPE." My charm is the tiny key on my toolbox, and I used the Washi tape like a ribbon running horizontally under my sentiments.

Now it's your turn to have a go at the Outlawz Greetings Tic-Tac-Toe challenge this week and create something to link up with us.

Some Old-Fashioned Rock n Roll

 In this whirl-wind world of constant technological breakthroughs and never-ending improvements, there are few things that remain constant. One of them is my husband of almost 39 years, and I am so happy for that. He isn't above a little trip down memory lane, and playing a little air guitar along the way (I know, I've caught him at it).
 Today starts a new challenge at the Outlawz Greetings, and this week's sponsor is Dr Digi. I made a card for my rockin' hubby using the digi image Derek Clapton. The challenge this week is to use embossing on your project - dry, heat, whatever your pleasure. My chipboard musical notes are heat-embossed with black powder and glitter.
I also have a confession to make to you all---
I---
am---
a Paper-holic!!
I have two photo boxes on my desk that I discovered earlier this month, filled with 6x6 and 4x6 papers. Papers I had totally forgotten I had in my stash!  I am embarassed, I am mortified, but I am determined to use it up before touching all my (pre-cioussss) other papers.

So, I grabbed a handful of patterned paper strips and used them to create the background for my easel card. I was able to use some of the larger strips on the rest of my card. And now my box(es) are a little lighter and I have a lovely card to show for it.
Come play at the Outlawz Greetings challenge this week. Dr. Digi is offering 2 digi images to the winner!

Anything Goes with an Extra Fold

Today brings a new challenge to the Outlawz Greetings. This week you are asked to use an extra fold in your card or project. I made an easel card, so my card front folds down, resting on the card inside.

 One of this month's sponsors is Bugaboo, and as soon as I saw this funky chicken, I knew I had to play with it. The image is called Kitchen - Chicken Soup. While chicken soup may be the standard for making the sick feel better, I thought it a little odd that a chicken would be tasting, well, chicken soup!!  And so my sentiment was born..."Sick people should not self-medicate." Inspiration comes from the most unusual places, doesn't it?! LOL

SO, run, don't walk, to your craft area and make a card or project with a sentiment and an extra fold! Show us what you got!! Challenge runs until Sunday night--good luck, and have fun, crafters!

Another month, another challenge, at the Outlawz Freebie Progressive Challenge, starting today! As always, it is an ANYTHING GOES challenge, and our guest sponsor this month is Sandi Samples -

Sandi Samples has gifted the DT with this cute image called #89 Watering Can.  

I created an easel card, decorating the front with paper doilies, flowers, pearls and flourishes. Nobody could call this card CAS LOL I colored my image with Copics, adding distress ink to the edges, and stamped a simple Thanks in red ink.

Open, the card sits on a carpet of red hearts, a felt die-cut adhesive border. I have had that in my stash for ages and never thought I'd get to use it, so I am very happy to see it on my card. I love the look of easel cards-they make such a great presentation.
So, according to the rules of the Outlawz Progressive Freebie challenge, f you used your free image from last month and entered it into the challenge by January 31, you will receive this image free from Sandi Samples.

A DEAR Challenge from Squigglefly

This week, Squigglefly challenges us to use a DEER on our project, or the word DEAR in our sentiment. Since I didn't have a deer image, I opted to go with the word DEAR in my sentiment.
I created an easel card using a Squigglefly digi image from one of their newest artists, Sal Schiebe. The image is called "Fairy on a Stool."

After coloring her with my Copics, I fussy-cut her and framed her with a paper doily I sprayed with homemade shimmer sprays. The patterned paper was part of a 12x12 page from which I cut out the corner "shrubbery."
My sentiment was printed in Microsoft Word, and I highlighted the word DEAR to make sure it fit in the challenge guidelines.
I love making easel cards, as they are so simple to create and have a great presentation. They are my go-to card. Using images from Squigglefly give me so much choice as the number of their artists keep growing, any style is satisfied! Check out the Squigglefly Store! And then use one of their images and the word DEAR in your sentiment or a DEER image and come play in this week's Squigglefly challenge for your chance to win!

Anything Goes at the Outlawz Greetings Challenge

It's Anything Goes at the Outlawz Greetings Challenge this week. The gorgeous image I used on my easel card is from guest sponsor Lacy Sunshine. It's called WIX Moonlight Bay.
I used a border punch to cut out my card faces, then circle-cut my Copic-colored image, framing it with a paper doily. I used a hole punch to cut tiny holes in each of the scallops of my card faces. I gave a little shimmer to my teal cardstock with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, then glitzed tiny stars on the image with Stickles. Sequins give my card that last bit of shine, and my Birthday sentiment is embossed.
Ever taken the challenge at the Outlawz Greetings? The last Monday of every month is Anything Goes, and it doesn't get any easier!! I am proud to announce that I now design for the Outlawz on the Greetings challenges! Yee haw, it's party time in the old corral today!!
Don't forget to check out those lovely digital images at Lacy Sunshine, too!

DS4J Progressive Christmas Card Challenge

Today I made a Christmas card for the Digi Stamps 4 Joy Christmas card challenge. I received a lovely image created by Margy called Snow Globe.
I decided to create an easel card. I colored the image with Copics and embellished with homemade SoftSnow (kind of like Flower Soft). I covered my card base with pine needle patterned paper from DCWV.
I added a sprig of Christmas flowers (it even has jingle bells) made by my talented friend Shannon. A metal charm holds the card front in place. You can't read it in the photo, but the round silver brad reads, "Santa Rocks!"
I really like this challenge, as it only requires one card a month. Also, if you participate in the challenge, you receive your next image free. So if you have a hankering to get some Christmas cards finished well in time for the holidays, go check out the DS4J Progressive Christmas card challenge.

Happy Mother's Day

My mom is a BIG fan of Harry Potter (right behind the Blackhawks, 2-time Stanley Cup winners). So this set of Har Repotter digi images from Bugaboo was perfect for a "magical Mother's Day" card for her. I made an easel card and used dimensional tape to layer my characters onto the card. I used Harry Potter designer papers for the background, cutting out the Hogwarts Express train (leaving Platform 9+3/4 in ten minutes).
To all the moms out there, have a wonderful day!

May Flowers for Mom

Today I made another card for one of the mothers on my list for Mothers' Day. I used a Squigglefly new May Release called "Spring Heart" from artist Niina Niskanen.
The challenge this week is to "Add something to the border of your card, be it a punch, a piece of ribbon, some lace, decorative paper strips, etc."
I printed Niina's image twice, fussy-cut it and framed it with CTMH patterned paper. I love how the flowers form a freestyle heart. I decided to go to my go-to card design, an easel card. I adhered my two framed hearts to the bottom half of my card face and added a few silver leaf charms and a sentiment.
When standing open, my Mother's Day greeting decorates the inside, along with my punched border and a few jewels. I used my Martha Stewart clearance rack punch for my card.
Go check out the new challenge at Squigglefly Challenge Blog (don't forget to print out a Squigglefly image and pull out your border punches!)

Easy Easel Challenge Over at Your Scrapbook Place

 Today I made an easel card for Your Scrapbook Place Challenge blog. Their guest sponsor, Scribbles Designs, gave the DT images to play with and I fell in love with Carl's Pad. I have a couple of images from the Carl set and I think he is too funny.
After making the easy folds for my easel card, I added patterned paper leftover from a previous project.
I colored Carl with my trusty Copics, then fussy cut him out and added him to the lower half of my card front. That way I can fold the front in and let it stand as if it were on an easel, with some of the image un-adhered and freestanding.
The reason the card stands up is in the embellishments or sentiment used on the "inside" or bottom of the card. I used a row of jewels and the tip of a dragonfly's wing to accomplish this.

Don't you love this sentiment? It's one of several that you can purchase at Scribbles Designs. I think this one is perfect for a two-part card!
So now you have a basic understanding of an easel card if you had never made one before. And you can go play in Your Scrapbook Place challenge as their theme is Anything Goes as an Easel Card. One random winner will win their choice of free digis from Scribbles Designs. Hurry, the challenge only goes through May 14th!

If You Can't Feed the World, Just Feed One

Happy New Year, crafters!  I am starting the year with a wonderful gift.  I am now a DT member for the Path of Positivity Challenge Blog, a place where you can go to see projects or posts that provide help, hope, courage, love, forgiveness, peace, motivation, encouragement, etc. It is a place to come especially on those days when the woes of the world just seem too much to bear. 
This is my first post as a POP team member and and I want to introduce this month's theme of Generosity with a story.

When my kids were small, I used to take them to the local grocery store and give them $5 to spend on food to be donated to a local food pantry. I warned them that I had the option to trade out their choices with something I thought would be nicer, and they would have to eat whatever they had chosen but been traded (I know, I'm sneaky that way). So they would spend twice the time I planned at the store choosing their food donations, but we all left happier for knowing that families somewhere would enjoy the goodies we gave.
I (secretly) was also giving my kids a lesson in generosity. Generosity is not a quality that people are born with but that must be learned.  What better teachers than parents to give children their lessons in generosity?  So when you give, whether it be money, time, even a smile, do it in front of your children so they will pick up on your good habits, kind of like that saying "Do what I do, not just what I say."  Or did I misquote?! LOL
For my easel card, I used a digi image called "Cupcakes Galore" from this month's POP sponsor, Digi Stamps 4 Joy.  I printed the image three times, twice at one size and once at a slightly larger size. (There was something wrong with my printer and the image kept spitting out in red, so I just went with it)  I colored my images with my trusty Copics, then fussy-cut the first in its entirety,and the second just the cupcakes that appeared closet to the eye, which ended up being the top cupcake, and the middle three on the next two steps.  I used dimensional tape to adhere my layers.  I colored just the top cupcake from my largest image to use on the bottom/inside base of my card.
The patterned paper is from DCWV "The Colorful Life" Stack.  I embellished with jewels from The Paper Studio.

When the card is closed, you can see the bit of lace, ribbon roses and washi tape that I used for embellishments as well.
I used a quote from Decosse's Dynamite Doodles.  It defines generosity so well, because often people think that to be generous you have to have a lot to be able to give it away. But just think: If you gave just enough to feed one person, you've made a positive difference in that one person's life.  Now what if we all made that small but significant gesture of generosity? Can you see the domino effect building from it? Wouldn't the world be a better place for your one small act?
I bet you're wondering about the challenge, huh? 
Anything that you'd like to share of a positive and inspirational nature that follows the monthly theme, is acceptable!  The challenge runs from January 6 for about a month.  A top seven will be chosen by the entire Design Team (DT) and will be posted in a separate post. 

The sponsors and prizes for this challenge are:

 ·   Ten digital images from Creative Bug Digitals for the person out of the top seven who receives the most votes during voting week.

·     Three digital images from Ike's World for the post or project that the DT deems most inspiring of the bunch.

·     Five digital images from Digi Stamps 4 Joy, our guest sponsors this month, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all entrants.

·     One digital designer paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles for one lucky voter who leaves a comment.

·     One digital sentiment for every single person who enters the challenge from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles as well.

I Hope you will play along this month, so link your GENEROSITY creations to Path of Positivity Challenge #10. 

You Are Just My Type!

I made an easel card today with a Squigglefly digi image called Just My Type! by artist Judith Hart.
I loved using my typewriter key alpha stickers to make the sentiment on the second half of my card.
After coloring the image with Copics, I fussy-cut it out and popped it on the first half of the easel card.  Some alpha stickers and symbols add to the scene, as well as a few coordinating stars and orange Stickles.
  I made this card with this week's Squigglefly challenge in mind.  It is to use the volor ORANGE in your project and of course a Squigglefly digi image.
  There are so many images to choose from becasue new and talented artists keep being added on to the creative list!!  They are welcoming TWO new artists in October - a husband and wife team - Carmen and Graham Gamble.  You can see one of Carmen's images later in October since I am one of the lucky ones to have an image from her to play with!!

3-2-1 iT'S cHALLENGE tIME!!

Have you checked out the Forever Night Creepy Challenge Blog yet?  It celebrates Halloween all year long for crafters, cardmakers and artists.  And who doesn't love to play with a Halloween theme more often than once a year?!

This week's challenge has a 3-2-1 theme, meaning:
3 EMBELLISHMENTS,    2 IMAGES, and   1 SENTIMENT.
Our sponsor this week is Delicious Doodles, and I used a deliciously wicked-looking mad scientist digi image called SPARKLING CYANIDE.  Isn't he creepy?  He fits in perfectly with a creepy challenge!!

I made an easel card for this week, so I could show off both my images,
but I am getting ahead of myself.

Let me count my card down for you:

3 Embellishments include a FEATHER,
some SEQUINS
 and a BUTTON.

2 Images include Delicious Doodles Sparkling Cyanide,
as well as the lower border of mad scientist chemicals and such bubbling away,
a Queen Kat Designs stamp called Chemistry Set.
(You can see the button embellishment in this photo, too)

1 Sentiment from my computer

that I circle-punched and faux-stitched.

And there you have it, my card for the 3-2-1 Creepy Challenge on Forever Night Creepy Challenges Blog.  So, what are you brewing for the new year?  If it's crafting, go check out Delicious Doodles and while you're filling up your cart, don't forget to use your new images in the CHALLENGE this week!

Have fun, and remember to keep Halloween in your heart all year 'round!!  Like Scrooge, but not?!
