Happy Birthday.....

Today I am using a fun stamp from Pollycraft along with my Perfect Paper Crafting tools to create this simple but cute card. I decided to break out my color spritzer to do a blue background for my image. The color spritzer will hold a variety of markers including SU and Distress Markers. I used a SU marker as that is what I have on hand. First let me say, my markers are OLD, meaning not new and juicy but I still had no problems getting the background I desired.

 

You place the marker into the holder as pictured:

 

Then you squeeze the "bulb" of the spritzer to add color to your paper. That's it!! 

Next I used my 1/16 inch Perfect Layers Mini tool to create my layers around my background. The Perfect Layers Mini tools are perfect for us cardmakers! You can get your Perfect Tools and get 5% off by using code Tracy5% in the store!!!

 

 

Next I cut my image out and mounted it on the background using foam dots. I like doing this as it adds a bit of dimension to my cards so they aren't so flat.

 

Thank you for stopping by today

You devil....

Todays my day for posting over on the Markerpop Blog!  I'm still trying to get all my seasonal cards posted and here is another one.....

This little Devil is called Devilish Lucy from C.C. Designs. I used some Black hemp twine and looped it a few times. I used a punch on the sides and weaved the twine in through paper. She is popped up a little with some foam squares to allow for the hemp. It's hard to see, but the heart button is a wood button from Prima. It wasn't the color I needed, so I just colored over it with my copic markers. The original was very light, pastel colors.  Did you know you could use your copics for more than coloring on paper??

Thanks for looking today and if you are going out to a Halloween Party - Have fun and be safe!!

Note Box - iCopic

Hey there!  This is my second post today, I have an Art Kure post below this one, so be sure to check it out!

I am so behind getting this completed this week. It's been a truly crazy, stressful couple of days. I'm just waiting for it all to end!! I haven't even felt like stamping, thats when I know it's bad!! haha  Today I am going to take my father out for dinner, he helped save one of my days. We had a leaky shower head, which turned into a huge fiasco...needless to say the wall had to be torn out and things had to be fixed and replaced. Thank goodness for Dads who happen to know how to do these types of things!!! Very lucky!

Anyways, today I would like to share with you a quick, easy note card holder I made for iCopic. I used a Grand Nestie to cut out the base and just created an easy basic box to hold "generic" note cards. The paper I used is from Bo Bunny, it's called Country Garden.

I then used the adorable CC Designs, Swiss Pixie Party Time Lucy. It's currently on backorder in the store...but it will be in soon!!

The box is approximately 4x5.

I just created simply little note cards for the inside of it.

Thanks for looking and be sure to come by the iCopic store....so many new things have came in lately and no lie, super fast shipping!
