Sending a Little Magic

Howdy y'all!

Mary Ellen here from Creative Time With ME! I've got a magical shaker card to share with y'all today!

Speaking of magical! I have had a fantastic time being on the Dies R Us Design Team! Did you know that right now they're hosting a Design Team call! Check it out HERE!

I started out by taking some Distress inks and blending on top of my card panel. Then I die cut the panel and the clouds. After that I stamped the unicorn and colored her! As for the sun panel I glued transparency film onto the back. When that was dry I attached foam tape to the back and put Sparkle Blends inside to create a shaker card! And then I used my MISTI to align the shaker front to the card base. To complete the card, I took all the clouds along with the unicorn and sentiment and placed them onto the card!  

Stamps: TCP Grab the Unicorn

Paper: CTMH White Daisy, 3M Write-on Transparency Film

Ink: MFT Extreme Black, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade, Crackling Campfire

Accessories: Crayola Washable Glitter Glue, SU! Rainbow Builder Framelits, Queen & Co Sunburst, Joy Crafts Clouds, MFT Puffy Clouds, Lifestyle Crafts Genius Bonus

Howdy y'all!

It's been a while so let me reintroduce myself! My name is Mary Ellen Driggs and my blog is Creative Time With M.E.

This Month's Theme Challenge is: JUST BECAUSE

I was so happy to get a chance to play with Sweet Little Red Riding Hood!

For my card, I started out by printing the image. Onto some white cardstock and removable sticker paper. Then I fussy cut the sticker paper to create a mask for the image. Once the mask was on, I brought out some stencils. For the ground I used Simon Says Stamp Grassy Edges with Evergreen ink. After that I brought out Trinity Stamps Layered Birch Stencils. Which I applied Espresso, Toffee, and VersaFine Clair Pinecone ink to create the scene. As for the sky and moon, I used Homemade Stencils along with Sapphire and Pacifica ink. The girls coloring is Ohuhu markers, Uniball Signo White, and ARTEZA Inkonic Fineliners.

A Whole WATT

Howdy y'all!

Today over at the Make My Monday challenge blog. We have a NEW challenge which is to do create a Clean and Simple card.

Close to My Heart had a smaller light bulb stamp than Spellbinders. But it also had this cute sentiment. So I took the sentiment and combined it with the Spellbinders stamp. Then I brought out my alcohol markers and did a bit of coloring. Finally to finish off this piece I doodled the glow from the light bulb.
