Challenge - Pop Up Cards

 This challenge is sponsored by A Day for Daisies designs... and the digi I used for this challenge is:


and to create a pop-up card and here is my pop-up card.  (Video will follow below on this pop-up card)

 

Front of Card

Inside of my pop-up card

Okay, I am sharing two techniques here.  The front of the card  is from StampTV video I received in my e-mail on February 12, called Scrappy Background. 

A good way to use up your scrap paper, both on the front and in the inside of card.  

Now the pop up is not, what I consider, a traditional pop-up.  I cut out the Happy Love Day bunny with balloon twice, and trimmed the balloon from the 2nd Bunny, making him/her the receiptant of the balloon(s).  The carrots was found on the online library of Make the Cut software; and the clipart from the following:

Row of Party Balloons clipart either by Jessica Weible Illustrations
WordArt - Love by Shmooangel Designs (found this clipart on Craft Crave a few days ago)
With the way I done the pop-up this card will be thick so need envelope created specially for it or use a padded envelope.

Challenge - Anything Goes


 

Mini-Album

For this challenge, I used the Eiffel Tower from the Travel Set by Creative Pointe.   I covered a 5x7 (approx) piece of chipboard with burlap fabric. 

I cut out the Eiffel 2 x's, one in black cardstock and adhered to white poster board to pop up on the covered front.  The titled design paper is from SilhouetteAmerica Online store which I printed and cut out the title Paris.  Flowers and end decorative corners from Michaels; and the ribbon I used my bow-maker to create.  Scalloped edged ribbon layered on the top and bottom edges of title, and placed brads in the corners.

It is not yet finished as I plan to bind with kraft colored duck tape and than will finish adhering the ribbon along the left edge.  Insides of mini-album is  5x7 black envelopes (approx.) from a tutorial found on youtube.com by Kathy Orta (http://www.paperphemenon.com)  creating this phenomenal mini-album.

Thank you for stopping by, and happy crafting.  Please join us at Creative Cutting Challenge  for this challenge.

Sponsored by Kenny K downloads
KennyK shop badge

Here is my card with a tag using a digi image from Kenny K

 

This is how I done my Card with Tag:

The design paper and mat is printed from a file from CraftsArtist Pro 2.  I saved the background paper as a png file, and brought into the Silhouette Studio Design Edition.  The tag and Christmas sentiment tag from my library in the Silhouette Studio.  Used the picker in the fill color menu and picked a color from the design paper and created the mat with that color.  The digi and Christmas sentiment was print and cut out.  

I placed brads on corners of card plus two gemstones on the sentiment label.  Added a red ribbon to the tag and there is my Card with a Tag.

Scrapper's Delights Challenge - Make it Sparkle

Make it Sparkle

(Glitter, Gems, Beads, etc)

 

and
Both digi stamps on sale - 20% off.

Supplies used:
  • Embossing folder for the window
  • Silver glitter for the window sills
  • Stickles for the trim
  • Silhouette Cameo for die cutting
  • Spectrum Noir and Copic markers for coloring
  • Merry Christmas sentiment from Teeny Tiny Words from Stampin Up
Printed the two images together and placed as a scene seen thru a window setting.  I used my xylon sticker machine to place glue on one side of the sills, and than placed, glue side down, into the glitter and looks almost like glitter paper.  The window itself, using my Big Shot machine and wood-grain embossing folder, I embossed the window.

Thank you for visiting with me today, and hope all have a Happy Thanksgiving with their families.
