Giftcard holder card!!! Mermaid Anya/For You!!

This is my card for todays TLC challenge. This is a Pop up gift card holder card. Very easy technique. here is the tutorial. Anyways on my card I used this new dp I picked up a few weeks back, just havent used it until today :) The background flower print is from chatterboxinc(called Happy Bloom) the stripes on the scalloped circle are from sandylion(stripes). The orange is leftovers from along time ago and the green is as well.

Mermaid Anya was watercolored last week, so I didnt have to do that this morning. :) I used su watercolored pencils to color her, and her skin tone is a copic R00 pinkish white. The ribbon is dyed pumpkin pie, and certainly celery. The gem on the bow is covered in beads to match!!

Thank you for lookingHave a wonderful day!! Stamps can be found here at Pink Poison.

You're my best bud Turkey card!

This card was designed for todays FS challenge over at SCS. Todays FS is EbethNeu and this is the card I cased

On this card I needed to change two or more things, so I changed the colors, and the stamp. I only used a sentiment stamp" You're my best bud" from Queen Kat Designs. The Turkey I made. I learned how to make this turkey from our SU card club, isnt he cute?????? I did add a bow to my card, and change the shape that the sentiment is on, it wouldnt fit on the other. Directions to make this cute little turkey are below. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!!!!
Hugs,
Cheryl
To create the turkeys feathers:

Step 1: count five scallope, and fold that portion of the circle down, as shown to the left.


Step 2: Turn circle over and mark the center at the top and the bottom, now count two scallops, and score from there to center. Like shown. do that on both sides of the circle.

Step 3: fold flat edge down from each side so folded edges line up with the middle.

Turkey card you will need:

Choc chip: 1 3/8 circle for the body and one scallop circle punch for the feathers.

More Mustard: 3/4 circle for the head.

Real Red: 1/4 circle for the buttons and one scallop circle for feathers.

Old Olive: scallop circle for feathers.

Basic Black: 3/4 square trimmed down for hat, double circle punch for eyes.

Pumpkin Pie: Boho blossems for his feet and a petal from one of the flowers for his beak. Adhere feathers to your card , and glue all punches to form a fine feathered friend!!

Miss You!!!



Hello everyone, this is the card I put together for todays Sketch Challenge over at SCS. Darling Sketch!!!!

Anyways on this card I used the puppy from the Home Sweet Home stamp set from Pink Poison Stamps. I watercolored him in choc chip, and close to cocoa. I used riding hood red on his tongue.

The design paper I used on this is double sided and I used two different sheets. They are from Sassafras. The scallop edge came on the dp , so I didnt have to add that. I did however add the pearls to the scallops.

On the ribbon, I dyed them to match. I used choc chip and baja breeze. I then added the pearl heart button.

Thanks for looking, and have a very nice day!!!

Here is a link to the templete for this tree box.

On this box I used some christmas dp, and then I stamped about 13 little birds, these darling little birds are from the Wishing Tree Stamp Set from Pink Poison Stamps. I then used dazzling diamonds on them. I then cut them out, and used foam squares to pop them on the tree. I then made my bow, and left alot of ribbon so I could have it going down the tree. The sentiment is from the same set. I stamped the sentiment in garden green. thanks for looking, and you will have to try this little tree box technique you will have fun making it!!!
