Cupcake Kitties Notebook

 

Hello!  I am finally back from a bit of a forced hiatus.  
Being sick is not fun, but I am back now!
Today I am sharing a project using
And also the matching papers from this release

Every month or so I like to decorate a notebook for either myself or for the kids and their friends.  

This one is totally for me.  I have never been a blue girl but this one just screams "keep me!"

Isn't that balloon patterned paper the best!
I love the colour of siamese cats so that is what I have done here.  Cut out a shape from a co ordinating patterned paper and used that as a background. Added a couple of diecuts to fill the background and a little Note sentiment to finish it off.  
I did not want to add too many lumpy bumpy embellishments as they tend to fall of in my hand bag....lol.  
Thank you for popping by.  I am hoping I get to spend more time in the craftroom now, so fingers crossed!
Happy crafting!

Party Time Bears

 

Sharing a project today I made using 
set from their new release from last month. 

Party Time Bears

and patterned paper from their 6 x 6 range. 

Sweet Celebrations


A retro feel is how this card turned out.  I googled a stool clip art and coloured that in for the little fellow to sit on.  The papers give a tiled effect.  There was something missing to finish the card.  Thought of what is in the atmosphere of a little milkshake bar.  Music!  So I die cut a few musical notes and placed them around the card. 
finished off with a sentiment.  
Hope you like it.  
Happy crafting!

Cupcake Kitties

 


New release!
Today I am sharing my second project from the Celebrations range from Ink N Splatters new release for this month. 
The set I played with is called 

I coloured up my kitty sort of like a Siamese cat.  Dark grey tips and a light grey all over.  

I am so into the shaker techniques lately.  They are an easy "wow" factor to any project.  I made my own little mix with what sequins and chunky glitter I had in my stash.  

I also used the papers from the new release. 

Sweet Celebraitons

Such a great range of patterns to choose from.  


Here is a picture that gives you an idea of how it is put together.  
The die you are wanting to use.  The papers then die cut out and trimmed and adhered together. 
The foam mount tape strips to hide under a white frame I cut out and added acetate to it.  
The image and the sentiment.  Not shown is the shaker mix.  You can use any that are premixed or make up your own like I did.  Hope this helps. 


Happy crafting!

Sweet Bunnies

 

May release time for 
Ink N Splatter

I have to say the colours in this release are so pretty.  All shades of blue and shades of pink and purple.  
Love it!!
My first project for this release is 
and I also used papers from the latest set of papers


I used 3 different pages for this project.  That is very different for me.  It is good to challenge ourselves once in a while.  
I coloured the image then fussy cut it out.  The "Sweet" sentiment is from this set, but the happy birthday is a random one from my stash.  
It really is a cute release.  All the links are above, please check it out for yourself.  
Happy crafting!

Panda Love

 



Ink N Splatter time again!  

We here, the DT at Ink N Splatter are getting a free pass on any type of project we would like while we wait for the New Release to go LIVE.
So I grabbed out the
Lovable Pandas stamp set.


I also have used the paper from 
Raspberry Crush 6x6 paper

I diecut a heart from the main panel.  Lined it with acetate then used foam mount tape to outline the outline on the back side of the card.  Add sequins and glitter then adhered it to the patterned paper.  Instant shaker card.  Throw on a sentiment and add the coloured and cut image of the panda.  Pop on some extra sequins and there you go.  
I am sure I will be making a lot more panda projects as I do love them a lot.  
Stay tuned for the new release out very soon. 
Happy crafting!

#725

 

Time to play along with Sketch Saturday again.

Sketch #725 is ready to go

I had planned on getting 5 different versions up in time for this challenge, but I will add them as I get them done.  
I am using the Sailor Moon set from 

With all the projects I have done for this sketch I kept the character colours as the elements.  
These characters are so cute. And best of all I don't need to blend the pens when colouring.  Fairly simple colouring helps to get the mojo flowing again.  
I will add more of these once I have finished making them.  
Don't forget to play along with us as we love seeing all your projects. 
Happy crafting!

Have a Hoppy Day

 


Hi!  Back again for another project for

I have used the 

So many images, so little time!


This little fellow is just cooling himself on the pond.  It kind of reminds me of a photo scrapbooked.  I had some lotus paper in my stash and thought this would be perfect for the theme.  There is always someone out there that loves frogs.  I am sure with some added flowers they will love this card.  
I have enjoyed using some older sets.  We should make an effort to use older things in our stash a little more often.  You never know, you may find an old favourite!
Happy crafting!
