Hello friends!  I hope your day is going well. I am here to share a birthday card inspired by the current MFT Color Challen ge 128, MFT Sketch challenge 460 and the talented Jennifer McGuire . Without further ado, here it is:  I used some My Favorite Things products as well as an Altenew Stencil  and fireworks stamp with disstress oxide inks and alcohol markers. Thank you for taking time to stop by, I do appreciate your comment, have a wonderful and blessed day! Liz

Hello friends! It has been quite some time since last I was  here, life just kept me busy.  This time around I could not help but try a LO using Altenew  latest Sketch Challenge and their building blocks die set and Geo frames ( square ) these boys awaited impatiently until they had enough money to buy this set.the day they put this droid together has been one of the happiest of their summer. They put their savings and effort together to accomplish this. I simply love their friendship and smiles. I also put together a CAS clock face design. I used some leftover paper pieces to create a quick fall decor. I think it is missing something, what do you think? I think I need to change the plastic rim color of the clock and maybe add more leaves... I hope to be back on the crafting world soon, I need to go through a stash of paper and some unused Altenew goodies I really want to play with! Thank you for taking time to stop by, I do appreciate your comment, ha...

Hello Craftworld friends!  I hope your day is going well.  I just wanted to stop by and share with you my take on Day 4 of Touch of Texture from #AltenewAcademy. This time around I decided to create a book mark considering that B2S is just around the corner. I hope my niece likes it... I used Faux Wood textured cardstock and embossed it with thick gold enamel. I like the look of it but realized / a little too late/ that in the 'hello' die cut the texture got lost as the powder is thicker than regular EP. I embossed the Mega Succulent with white embossing powder to keep the focus on the golden elements but still add some texture to the otherwise plain background. The leaf at the end of the string is secured with oval metal rings leftover from a jewerly project. what do you think?

Hello craft world friends! I hope your day is going well and that your weekend is off to a great start! I am here to share a quick Key Holder, a perfect way to use a few neglected materials sitting in boxes around here. It has been quite some time since last I posted anything here. A lot has happened but I am glad I can craft a bit again, please bear with me if my skills are a little rusty. As soon as I saw the MFT Color Challenge 97 I thought of my sister, she loves corals and yellows. She had asked for a key holder a while back, if I could find the time ( I am the crafty one I have been told LOL!) I checked with her if she still wanted it and she said yes, so off to craft I went. I hope you like it, is very simple but helps destash this CR. Materials: Heart shaped brads (paper fasteners) E6000 adhesive A lonely sand tray MFT Well Connected Alphabet Stamps Versamark Ink and Black embossing powder Heat gun Balsa Wood diecuts Xyron Stiker Maker...

Hello craft world!  Just stopping by to share my entry on the current  Altenew card  challenge: I love Aga's color choice so I played a little with it, and here is my take: I used Inline Alphabeth Dies, Sketched lines Stencil and a couple of altenew's ink colors: Deep Iris and Frosty Pink covered with Faber Castell Glass Bead Glitter Gel. the sentiment is from Hero Arts. Very CAS looking and very sparkly in person. I added dimension to the letters stacking 4 black letters behind the stenciled ones. I have been dying to try this techniques and love them!  Thank you for taking time to stop by, I do appreciate your comment, have a wonderful and blessed day! I am also playing along: SSS Work it Wednesday : fun inking technique: Stenciled ink covered with glass bead glitter paste. AAA Cards: CAS Game 112, favourite technique Thank you for taking time to stop by, I do appreciate your comment, have a wonderful and blessed day! Liz

Hello crafty friends!  I hope your day is going well. Wow, it has been so long since the last  time I posted here, it feels really good to play along a few challenges again. I  have recently been inspired by a couple of Altenew's challenges. First one Scrapbook Sketch Challenge #8 ,                                                              I used the inspiration LO.  I truly love how those "hexagon" hearts turned out. I am trying to stick to simple LOs and I think this fills the bill.                     Here are some close ups of the details.           S upplies:                                      ...

Hello friends! Lets finish the weekend with one more entry to a challenge or two ;), shall we? I created this cards, similar but with different backgrounds to enter the #WCMD2017 at Winnie and Walter challenges On both I used the same embossed heart from a Simon Says Stamp set, but for the one on the left, I created the smooshed background using gelattos and for the one in the right I used embossing powder to create the background. I flipped the sketch but kept the card base the same. smooshed background embossed background The sketch is from Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner.                                        I will be playing along the following challenges: #winnieandwalter: #WCMD2017, Variations with Shay  and Smooshing with Lydia , #SSSWChallenge: Thinking of you Thank you for taking time to stop by, I do appreciate your comment...
