Butterfly Card Using BIC Mark-It Markers

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!  I am here today to show you a card I made with a butterfly stamp and the BIC Mark-It Markers.  Here is my finished card!

 The butterfly is from Stampin Up called Stipple Butterfly.  I stamped it with Stazon black ink on white cardstock twice.  I used 4 BIC mark it markers for this butterfly.  I colored the butterflies with 2 shades of blue and went over it with light yellow to give it detail.   Some of the yellow turned green and it looks amazing!

 

 One of the butterflies I cut out and placed on top of the other to make it 3-D.

Here is the stamp and markers I used for this project!

Halloween Card using Inkadinkado Stamping Gear

Hi Everyone!  I picked up the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear Deluxe Kit over the weekend at ACMoore.  I used my 55% off coupon and couldn't resist buying it.  I must say I LOVE it.  It is really amazing what you can create with one stamp.   I was playing with it and LOVED the way this turned out so I made it into a Halloween card.   I used ONE stamp and 3 different colors to achieve this fabulous look.  Colors I used were:  Memento Tuxedo Black ink, Stampin Up Orchid Opulence, and Stampin Up Only Orange.  The sentiment is from Studio G.

 Here is the stamp I used along with the circle cog.

 Using the same stamp and circle cog, I used only 2 colors for this sample and stamped Happy Halloween from Hero Arts in the center. 

This product is FABULOUS and you may want to give it a try.  I cannot wait to make more projects with this Stamping Gear!!

Altered Journal for Teacher for Back to School

Hi Everyone!!  Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  I have been busy with back to school stuff and sports!!  Now that my kids are going back to school, I will be posting more regularly. 

I have a project for you today that my child will be giving the teacher the first day of school.  I will also be entering this project in several challenges (see bottom of post).

I purchased this small journal yesterday at ACMoore for $1.00.

All cuts are from Cricut cartridges (see bottom of post).  I used my ATG gun and a glue pen to adhere all the cuts down. 

 The sentiment "My Teacher Rocks" is from My Creative Time.  The adorable face is from Peachy Keen Critter Faces Medium.  I applied Glossy Accents to the glasses to make them look glossy.   I also used my white gel pen to add white dots to the teachers name and apple.

 I also covered the pen with red and white twine.   And tied a bow with the same twine.  I used my ATG gun to adhere the twine to the pen.

I am so happy with how this turned out.  You know I have seen this apple and worm so many time and this is the first time I have cut it out!  I really need to use my carts more!! LOL

Cricut Cartridges:

  Recess - Apple
  Create A Critter - Worm
  Sesame Street Font - Sunny Days Font

I am entering this in the following challenges:
  Peachy Keen - Anything Goes
  Really Reasonable Ribbon- Back To School
  Fantabulous Cricut Crawl- Back to school (use school supplies)

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!!
