Gate Fold Card

Hello;

Today I'm sharing a gatefold  card I made for my brother's birthday. I used papers from the G45 By the Sea collection.

 

 

I am entering this card in the Simon Says Transport It Wednesday Challenge.

Bloom Girl Cards

Hello,

Today I'm sharing my collection of Bloom Girls.
I got the inspiration for these cards from Cari Fennell on Live with Prima. This is such an easy way to make cards and a great way to use these large stamps.
I started by stamping my Bloom girls on white cardstock and coloring them with my Prismacolor pencils. Next, I used color cardstock to create a 5x7 card. I cut each girl 1/4 inch smaller than the card and adhered it to the front of the card and I was done.

 

You could also make these cards smaller or embellish them. I kept mine simple.

Here is the link to Cari Fennell's video http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/51059541.

Gelatos & Bloom Girl Tag

Hello;


It is late, I can't sleep so I decided to craft.

I just finished this tag and wanted to share.
I created the background with Gelatos then used a Prima Stencil to add the details.  It was super easy and fast. Next I stamped my Bloom Girl on cardstock, used my color pencils then added her to the tag.
The sentiment is from a Tim Holtz stamp set.

Enjoy.

 

Bloom Girl Tee

Hi!

I bought this blouse recently and I decided to use one of my new Bloom Girl stencils to embellish it.
I used fabric paints and tried not to use very bright colors. I'm not a teenager anymore, but the temperature here is sometimes so crazy that this is the proper attire.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Desk Organizer

Hello:

Today I am sharing a desk organizer I made from an empty box.
First, I cut the box in two pieces.. one lager than the other.
Next I added black tape on all the edges then covered the pieces with paper.
I glued the 2 pieces together and wrapped a piece if ribbon around them.
A small bow was added as a finishing touch.

This is the before picture:

Prima Doll Easel Card

Hello!

I made this card for my sister- in -laws' birthday . I used a Julie Nutting doll stamp and paper pieced her clothes then I added black lace to the skirt. The flower is made from black ribbon and I added some metal jewelry findings  for the center.
On the shoes I used  black diamond Stickles. The small purse is a button I found at my local craft store.

Up-Cycled Tin

Hello!

Today I want to share this altered tin.

I used blue acrylic paint mixed with gesso to paint the tin. Next, I stamped  and embossed Bloom Girl Sharon then colored her using acrylic paint. I added the leaves on the background using a stencil and modeling paste then added some ultra fine pearl glitter while still wet. I used a white wash to tone down the background color and used a marker to outline some parts of the leaves.

For the leaves on the side I used the stencil and paint then added modeling paste over it. 

 I finished by adding pearls and sealing the whole thing with gel medium.
