Silhouette Challenges - Shaped Card

Happy Birthday

Hello and Happy Tuesday!

Today is my day to post over at
Craftin Desert Divas.
I am sharing a another card I made using one of my favorite
stamp sets from the May Release.  I used "Happy Celebrations" 

I love all the different sentiments on this set. 

Here is my project:

My son asked me for a quick birthday card

at the last minute and this is what I came up with!

The cut is from the Silhouette Store Design ID #51731,

I thought it would be perfect wiht the quote.

His friend is an Oscar Wilde fan and he wanted me to incorporate

this quote.  I used my Silhouette Sketch Pens to write it out.

Of course I knew "Happy Celebrations"  would have
the perfect sentiment!!
The paper is from Doodlebug
and I also used a Spellbinders Curved Rectangles Die.

Thanks for stopping by!!
 

 

Father's Day Frame

Hello and Happy Saturday!

I hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of

their weekend.  I have a fun project to share with you today.

A friend at worked asked if I could make her a frame

for her boys to give their father for Father's Day.

He is a police officer and this is what I came up with.

I have to apoligize for the photo quality.

I finished this late at night and had to take

these pictures at my desk at work!!

Warning, this is picutre heavy!!

I started with a plain 8x10 frame I bought at Michael's.

I painted it with some white arcylic paint.

Next I covered with with some great police themed

paper that I found at Scrapbook.com.

I Mod Podged the paper onto the frame.

I added this adorable little policeman from the

Police Kids file from Too Cute By Jessica

I tried my best to replicate his badge.

I used the Design ID #40567 and Design ID #1664

from the Silhouette Store to create the badge.

I used my Silhouette Pens to add the writing. 

I used the Pens again to write out these banners.

 

I used the Cooper Block Font for my title.

I put a final coat of Mod Podge to finish my frame.

 

My friend loved it and I hope her hubby does as well!!



Happy Celebrations - Merry Christmas

Hello and Happy Tuesday!

Today, is my design day over at Craftin Desert Divas.
I am sharing a card I made using one of my favorite
stamp sets from the May Release.  I used "Happy Celebrations" 

This stamp set is so versatile and covers so many different occasions. 
Followers of my blog should know  of my obsession with Julie Nutting
Prima Doll Stamps.  For today's project I
made another Christmas card using a chipboard doll.

The paper and bling are from Recollections, I also used some

Webster's Pages Trim.  I added some Xmas Red Stickles

and Embossing Tinsel to the doll as well as some Glossy Accents

to her shoes and belt.

 
Here is a close up of the sentiment.  Love the font!!
For my flowers, I used Prima Chalk Edgers to
color my white flowers to match my card.
I dipped them in glue and then in diamond dust
to add some sparkle!

Thanks for stopping by!!
