Shadow box ATC - Silent Night

 

 

 

Hope you are doing well. Just a super quick post before bed tonight!  I made these little ATC shadow boxes for our monthly ATC exchange at my LSS.

There is a little copic airbrushing on the snow and background along with a few yummy Hero Arts stamps. Added to the background is "all is calm" and "All is bright", its a bit hard to see but her little song book has Silent Night on the outside.

Have a great week! Thank you for peaking in :)

Whiches wardrobe dress form

Hope you are doing well.  I was able to squeeze in one more Halloween project this year.  There was an ATC swap at our LSS.  These ladies are super creative, its a pleasure to play along with them!
I used the Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers and airbrushed with Copic markers.

Wanted to add the name of a clothing company to the ATC which got me thinking ... Where do Witches shop for their clothes?  I poled my Husband and he just gave me a weird look so I also asked the girls at work. They came up with a few fun names like Witches and Broomsticks  and ended up deciding  on Black Cat Couture Company :)

added a few fun elements. Under the dress form there is a "made in Salem" tag ...

plus also the price on the dress is $31.00

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by today.  :)

Halloween Kiddo

With Halloween around the corner thought I would play around with this festive Kiddo stamp from Stampendous. called Cat, Candy Kiddo :)
Coloured with Copics along with  a little background airbrushing. 

Love this time of year :) here is a quick picture of our front door wreath dressed up for fall.
Thanks for stopping by!

Little bit of copic coloring & Kraftin Kimmie

Hope you are doing well. Its Friday night of a long weekend and just got home from work. Trying to decide if I should spend the night cleaning or crafting. Hmmm ..... It's a tough decision but I think I will try crafting for a bit!
Made this card for a recent copic class. The clouds are hand drawn and used as a template with  added flocking made from  cotton balls sprayed with Goosebumps texture spray and glitter.

Summery cupcakes

Hope you have been enjoying your Summer. We've been having great weather here and I have really tried to get outside this Summer and enjoy.  Gardening. BBQ's, making raspberry & blueberry jam and sleeping in the hammock has been keeping me busy.
I made this little card for a co-worker, her last day is today as she is going back to school.  Also sent along some matching cupcakes made by me (and Betty Crocker)!

Did you see the new Christmas Hero Arts stamps?!!!! love that super cute snowman :)

Thinking of you -- Heart card

Thought it would be fun to make a card full of hearts! Continuing to try and incorporate pattern papers on my designs. This card was great for using up those little scraps of paper that seem to multiply. Having a good size heart punch I think will come in handy for card making. Hearts like butterflies I love to add to any creation!

Huge hearts and hugs to you! :)

Just a note ...

A little bit of afternoon crafting today, made this simple card using a pretty pattern paper called Sweet Threads and cardstock. Trying to add more stitches and pp's to my cards for a different look!

Hope the start of your Summer has been good. We are having tons of rain here, guess our April Showers are late this year :)

Just a quick post tonight of a card I made over the Victoria Day long weekend. The vintage material has been treated with Sewing Interface to give a firm look. The interface is added using an iron and it also makes it a lot easier to add adhesive to the backing.

Hope your weekend was a great one, enjoy your week! :)

M is for Milk vintage ATC

This is the second month of ATC trading at my lss, here is my take on this months theme. There are 15 people playing along this month which is so awesome. This also means I have to make 14 more of these little cards by Sunday!
Have a happy Friday and wonderful weekend :)

Happiness is handmade dress form

We have been having some great weather here in the Toronto Area. With Summer just around the corner I am totally looking forward to crafting outside on the picnic table. Nothing better than a little sun, paper and stamps!

Thanks for peeking in and enjoy the rest of the week! :)
