A Little Boredom on a Sunday…

Filed under: . — Tags: , , — Melissa @ 3:24 pm

I was sitting at my craft desk and looking at my wall switch plate and just hated the white plastic look. So i took it off the wall and took out my Tim Holtz’s Adirondack Acrylic Inks and got busy. I did mine, my sons and my daughters. I need to get some navy blue paint to make my Hubbys a Yankees theme.

What do you think?

Went into Mikes the other day I noticed they are selling Tim Holtz Stamps, I dont know the name of this I have to look it up but I just love it. His stamps are clear and soo thick! I cant believe I was able to find it at Mikes of all places!

I also plurged on new Paper Trey Ink Cardstock. This green is called Ripe Avocado. So yummy!! That patterned paper is from a collection called Zen Garden got last year at Mikes for under 5 dollars for a big pack, I love after Christmas sales.

I made this card very simple and very modern, No coloring or using my dies or cricut, I was the easiest card I made in a while.

With Heartfelt Sympathy..

I made this card for my sons doctor, his mom recently passed away.

I used Bazzill cardstock with my Tim Holtz Distress Inks . I used the sentiment from TAC also..That is available here. I colored in my blue jay with the Prisma Pencils and baby oil.

I also used my Square nesties but turned then sideways to make a rectangle, and I used Stampin Up Ribbon, I believe its old olive. I used the masking technique to create the sun.

Black Magic Victorian Collage

Filed under: . — Tags: , , — Melissa @ 9:24 pm

I wanted do something that look like it was in the fire. So I used Victorian College From TAC, used the Black magic technique, Distressed the card with Tim Holtz’s inks and used the Martha Stewart Punches to make the edges. Used Prima pencils with a gel pen.

I love the way she looks.
