My Daddy - like so many- has his own special chair. When I saw this cute little digi from Pollycraft, I knew I had to put it on his father's day card. I used Cricut Scalloped Circles (Alphalicious) and some George plain circles to finish it off. Happy Father's Day Dad. This fits the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge and Polka Doodles this week
There is a great sketch at Practical Scrappers this week by Gloria Stengal. So much fun I had to try it. And it worked out great for a Valentine for my teen-age son (They are difficult, aren't they?)
I used Everyday Paper Dolls for the "world" and the alien....George for the stars......Alphalicious for the oval (with stickers) and Pooh Font for "my world." Lots of carts for a simple card....used sharpied, gold metallic gel ink, and a white jelly roll to finish it. (and Pink alien cheeks!)
I've been spending time at the Splitcoaststampers forum and have found lots of great new ideas and techniques. One was a great Pocket Heart template...so many uses I can think of for this one. I decided to use some great K & co paper, added a little hand pieced teddy bear (original pattern from My Scrap Chick....altered by me), an Alphalicious oval with sticker sentiment, some ribbon, and metallic hearts. I'm so happy with the way the bear turned out....gonna try some more like this.
I'm entering this one in Polka Doodles paper piecing challenge for this week.
My attempt at the black and white card. The teal flower is from Storybook, cut on short and regular, then layered in different sizes. Great trim was on a roll and was a find from Tuesday Morning. Thank you is from Alphalicious.
This card is made from the scraps of a new layout. I used lots and lots of sunflowers...blue and brown patterned paper. I took a few of the leftover pieces...added a sentiment from Alphalicious...a great sketch from RAQ's challenge at Cricut.com....and here it is. The sunflowers are Walk in My Garden.......used shadow, blackout, and regular cuts.....button centers.....ink and pop dots. Trim is rick rack....and the punch is Martha Stewart.
3 challenges in one! This card is for Frosted Designs (scallops), Just Buggin' (Christmas), anc Cricut Cardz (something that starts with an "s"). The Santa is made from a George 3" flesh circle, and red and white scalloped circles cut in half from Alphalicious. Added a 1" George oval in pink for the nose. Eyes are done by hand.....chalked the cheeks. Glittered the hat....trim is a flower punch. Added a button, some white doodles, and white dimensional paint on the beard. Paper is DCWV........and a "Jolly" metal tag and rhinestone edging.
