card box

I have made another of these box cards. there are a few different tutorials on the web here is one and here is another..  they are so fun to make..

card box

I can’t remember the papers that i used.. sorry. the ticket is from Tim holtz and the bracket is cut from grunge board using a time holtz die. I also used a martha stewart border punch for the picket fence, not that you can see much of it behind the hanglar image.

inside

here is the inside, I used another tim holtz die for the tag and the thing that the sentiment is in, this is cut with grunge board again..

back

and here is the back.  the personalised stamp is from whimsy stamps ..

getting old and confused.. that’s me.. rofl..

lili of the vally

rofl.. I have been looking for ages trying to find the copic colour list that i used for this card… doh.. i haven’t even coloured it with copics…. I think that i need help! then i was convinced that i had followed a sketch.. but no this was one of my going off on a tangent cards.. don’t ask.. rofl..

lili of the vally

anyway, hope that your weekend has started off well, I have done a little food shopping this morning .. and am just waiting for Paul’s arrival tonight from work.. Yay!!!!  I tell you don’t take teenage girls shopping with you .. i thought that i would be safe in a super market… but hey… she now has a new pair of slippers, a mahooosive rubber.. it weighs a tonne.. lol she said that she won’t loose it at school.. loose it you could knock someone out with that baby!!!) (6.5” long  x 2” wide and weighs 302grams) some hairbands, muffins popcorn facial wipes, the list goes on..  but she is smiling, got nothing for tea mind.. .rofl..

there isn’t a lot to tell about this card.. papers are tim holtz vintage shabby, i distressed the edges and then used the sewing machine.. still have to clean it.. so stitch with baited breath,, waiting for it to mess up!

 

the image is lotv, sentiment is inky impressions which i have stamped onto a die from sizziz.. ancient document.. it is a red die.

all the edges have been punched with a martha stewart border punch. I went distress mad on the inside.. hearts are quickutz cookie die’s and the heart stamp is stempleglede.

the lotv image has been coloured with pencils..

Thank you for dropping by .. and thank you to all of you that left me such lovely comments yesterday about my new DT position.. mwah…

fizzy moon
Isn’t this little bear one adorable little thing.. I saw these first at the glitter pot and had to really resist buying some…. and succeeded..  but i popped along to the range the other day and well saw this cutie again.. and this and a few other stamps fell in my basket, along with papers ribbon and brads.. rofl.. talk about weak willed..
fizzy moon
I have followed the sketch for this month at I heart to stamp
3I made it into an easel card, the image as i have said is Fizzy moon, the sentiments used on this card are from the same stamp sheet..
4The papers are from the same line.. the flowers are a mixture of bought and handmade.. i love these little crochet roses at the moment..  they are so quick and easy to make.. .

I dunked the paper blossom in some twinklet stuff. and the stars have been cut from grunge board and then given a healthy sprinkling of art glitter.. oh boy does that stuff get everywhere.. lol..
5
shock and horror, no copics, i like to have a change every now and again. this time i have gone with prisma pencils.
