Alota Rubber Stamps Challenge / on PCP

This card was made for saturdays IC on SCS, and to use for the Challenge on PCP. Im hosting the challenge on PCP and you are to do some kind of embossing on your card!!On my card I did use the Magnolia Blossoms stamp that was just released from Alota Rubber stamps!! Love this beautiful stamp and will get alota use out of this one :)
Idid emboss the white backgrounds on this card!!!

I hope you will be able to join in on this challenge, if you have some Alota Rubber stamps please come and join us. Helene is offering some wonderful stamps and you can enter as many cards as you wish, the more the better for you to have your name picked!!!


This card was made for Sundays FS challenge on SCS. You cant see but the white panel is embossed as well. I will also be using this for PCP challenge tooo. This is another stamp that I will get alota use out of. I love this one tooo, I think I will do another with the yellow being a little to light on this one. But Im still happy with the way this one turned out. I dont care for yellow or orange to much, so I need to start working with these colors a little more :) Lately I have seen soooo many wonderful cards done by other crafters in yellow, or orange and it has inspired me to try to use these colors now :)

On this one I did use copics to color. I also used stickles to add sparkle to the tops of the flowers. Stickles can be found here at Pez-A-Doodle she carries sooo many nice products to use. You can visit the store HERE :) Have fun!!!
Thank you for looking and have a wonderful day!!!!
Off to work I go :( (Would love to just stay in my craft room alllll day!!!!LOL)

Marble Technique / Dreams

This card was made for todays TLC Challenge on SCS

Ive had to post 2 seperate posts today, my other is below, and shows how to use the crackle paint, and dabbers again.

Well on this card I did want to keep it pretty simple so you could see how my dp turned out. Im very pleased with the colors and the way it turned out :)
I did use: the lid to a box,su refills,perfect pearls,rocks,brushes!!! The sentiment is from The Greeting Farm!!! You can view all Maries wonderful stamps HERE :)


Well we were to use marbles, but I dont have any that I could find. LOL so I went through some of my many drawers in my craft room, and look what I found, hmmmm I thought would these work????LOL Yeppers they sure did...lol


In the first pic I mixed wild wasabi, and I think it was lavender lace. Although Im sure it wont matter since the green over powered the lavender.

In this second picture I used both lavenders but did them seperate and didnt mix them.

I finished rolling the rocks around :) sounds funny but love the results from this technique!!


Last I decided to add perfect pearls to this, and just added them to certain areas not the entire piece...lol

Thank you for looking and I hope you enjoyed this :) I know I did enjoy this technique, and if you are wanting to join in on this challenge please follow the link above :)
Thank you for looking and have a wonderful day!!! Also you can view my other post below for today as well if you like:)

Hugs,
Chery

This is everything Ive used today. Perfect pearls can be found here at Pez-A-Doodle Designs

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge/DT Call

This card was designed for Saturdays Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge/DT Call!!




You are to make a Shaped card!!! Of course I went with a Heart shaped card since I love hearts :) Also just had to use Tilda and some flowers!!! I know you cant see the grass, but that is ok :) lol you can see just a little bit of it in these pictures :)
I wanted to show you how I used the Distress crackle paint, dabbers, and copic for the sky and grass!! For the sky I first used the Distress Crackle paint. I then dabbed on White with the dabber. I used my fingers to dab after so it blended it in a little more.
This picture shows just the crackle first. and the copic for the grass
On this picture I then dabbed on the blue(Paint Dabbers) to fill in the spots that werent done with crackle. And then dabbed white.
This is what it looked like after I used my fingers to dabbed the white in a little more
In this picture I used the dark green, and then dabbed the lighter green for the grass
This is all done. Hope this helps you to create:) Have fun, and get out those products and put them to goood use!!!!
On my card I did use the cricut to cut out all hearts, and I used the Big Shots to cut out the swirls. I did use perfect pearls on all the swirls!!! I added a butterfly button, flowers with gems in the centers, and my big bow!!! this card does open up, and you could even add a pocket on the inside!!! Thank you for looking and have a wonderful week!!!
All paint and stickles can be found here at Pez-A-Doodle Designs!!!
