KBD Candy Corn Donut Ginger

 

Hello crafty friends , today I'm sharing this darling Kadoodle Bug Designs Sitting Candy Corn Donut Ginger, isn't she the cutest? I wanted to make another fun Memorydex to enjoy and this one is the first fall one for this year. 

to start with I cut out my memorydex card using a die, and then used the sweet Ginger girl that I had put together. She is cut out in different colored card stock and then distressed. I used inks and pens to do all that. Next her eyes, I love doing their eyes its so much fun. On her eyes I try to use a 005 pen for the lashes, then using another little thicker pen for the liner, and then chalk for the highlighting.Next for the blue eyes I did cut in a blue and then used 2 copics for highlighting the edges. The black I did using the glossy accents over the black, and I did have to add more paint pen in white on top, as it faded what was underneath. I chalked her cheeks and added some white paint pen. I do show the pen in my videos, and I think I bought a 2 pack of these on ebay. I love the paint pens so much better than gel as the gel pens dry up. Now for her bow, I used the gorgeous RRR Sherry & Ivory Plaid ribbon. My sentiment is from The Project bin stamps.

TLC Turtle-icous Memorydex and video on coloring

Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday to you all! Today's Memorydex card was designed for TLC Designs using the darling Turtle-icous stamp set, along with their gorgeous design paper and a few dies. I also have a fun video on how I colored this sweet turtle up. She is one of my many favorites from TLC Designs.

• First I started with my memorydex card base in black, then cut the design paper from TLC Designs Something Bloomed Slimline design paper pack. I added my dots.
• Next I cut out my ovals from the Loving Petals Square set, one in black, and then one in white. I did leave the die on the white one after cutting to use as a template to dust some green, it will leave a white edge when doing this, love that. I lastly stamped my sentiment using one from the stamp set. and then added dots to the black.
• Now I stamped my turtle , snail and flower using black ink, and then colored them all up using copics. I do have a video on the turtle and coloring her.
• I now cut out my vine using the Tiny Vine oval die set, this is cut in green. I now placed my fussing cut images where I wanted them and then added my vine and flowers.

Sweet Bee Gnome "I Love You"/Storage Video

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday to you all! Today I have this darling gnome SVG I put together, and used for my post today for Really Reasonable Ribbon. I absolutely love making these darling bee gnomes, and using them on my memorydex spinner, as I get to see them all daily. Love that! So for this one here, I did use RRR Flowers, ribbon, and foam squares along with some scor-tape all will be linked below for easy finding.

Recipe for my memorydex:

the Memorydex die cut is from Amazon, and I cut it using some black card stock from papertemptress, then added some white paint dots. Next I layered using the darling bee paper from Echo Park Oh Happy day design paper. Love how cute it is. I then decided to use a stamp (i love you)and die set from Mymakersmovement, and added some dots to it. The bee gnome was already put together and ready to go, so I grabbed him to use. I did however make his antennae's and added black dew drops from The Robins Nest. Next I added some greenery and that way I could layout all my flowers for placement. I used Rose buds, sweetheart blossoms, carnations, Mini sweetheart blossoms, Open rose, and then an old aster daisy that I had in my bag of random flowers.

All my layers are popped using the foam tabs from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Love these as you can do lots of layers and they are thinner tabs. Lastly I added my ribbon bow to his hat, yes a ribbon bow on my gnome...hehehehe and then added my dew drops using hot glue.

Springtime Gnome Flowerpot

Hello crafty friends and Happy Friday to you all! Todays Memorydex card is a flowerpot I made into a pocket for some journaling on this darling Gnome card. I figured it nice when your journaling is hidden sometimes. The flowerpot is an old cottagecutz die, and the gnome is a Christmas one i changed a bit.

for this memorydex card I added an envelope and then some shapes on top of it. Next layered the fence and then my flowerpot and gnome. Love all the fun colors for spring here. I just had to use some of my dew drops from The Robins Nest Creative, I need to purchase more of these soon.  I used a mixture of design papers on this one from American crafts and Echo Park "Welcome Spring" collection.  I used my copic markers for coloring the bunnies, flowers, window, door and stem on the flower top. White paint pen for dots, and different ink pads for distressing the edges of the pieces.

Hope you enjoyed another extra post for this week!

Hugs to all,

Cheryl

I've been so addicted to making these darling memorydex cards and love them. I made a set here so I can add a photo to the bottom one. I ended up using two of the darling blue ribbons from this months assortment and love them both! I also added a pink satin, of course that one is not in this months assortment, but just had to use it anyways. I wanted my ticket booth to have lots of flowers to go with the design papers, and I managed to add several die cut layers as well. I love having these on my desk where I craft as I get to see them everyday and just roll and see another. super fun! For the ticket booth I ended up adding some stickles that you paint on, as my ticket booth had glue on it, and it looked pretty dirty. anyways a quick fix.

shabby chic window

Hello crafty friends and happy Monday to you all! Today I'm sharing a Memorydex card I made using this window I created years back and never put on anything. I figured I would enjoy it on the memorydex cards, and add photos soon. I love that I am able to do journaling on the tag that is hidden in the pocket behind the window. Hope you enjoy this extra post for this week.

All I did was cover my card with design paper, and a doily die cut. Next I placed the window and added a new tag as the one that was in there disappeared over the years. I did add a butterfly, and that is about it. I covered the bottom of the window using a floral border piece that came with the design paper pad, and added the rest of that border to the card below. super fun!

Berry Sweet Gnome

 Crafty friends I have another post for today, as I just couldnt wait to share this darling gnome that I did using an SVG file I bought from Marjorie Ann. Isn't he just the cutest!? Remember any of the Memorydex layouts will also work on a card base as well.  Anyways I will keep this post super short.

I had some leftover red card stock, it was kinda short and small, so I decided to add a border punch to the edges. Next I covered using the checked, and strawberry design papers, and then added a few frames to get my layers. I stamped the sentiment from StampinUp! and then used the flowers that came in the SVG file. Love this one, and cant wait to choose a photo to go on it.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend! Hugs to you!
