Vintage French - ATC's

Hello,

I was recently in a swap using my Paula's Kit Club goodies and the theme was "vintage French". So I pulled my great kits out and used it to create this ATC (Artist Trading Card). I combined two of Paula's kits to make this card and added a wax seal I had on hand.

I so enjoyed this swap because of the high quality products I could use. If you want a great quality paper arts kit - Paula's Kit Club is the stuff to buy.

Puppies ....

Hello,

These stamps are so stinkin' cute! I had a crafty day at a friends and made a bunch of these. They are quick and easy.

The stamp set is made by Hanna Stamps that I got at my LSS (Angela's Happy Stamper)

My Monthly Elvis!

Hello,

Each month I make a new Elvis card for the "wall" at Angela's Happy Stamper. There is a new theme each month and I add Elvis to it. June's theme was Memory Box. I felt beat for a few minutes ... but then it it me. Disco Panda needed an Elvis head!

Ta-Da! It came out perfect. I used Memory Box papers and "You're Groovy Baby" stamp to finish it. I popped up the Elvis heads because ... well, why not?

I hope it makes you smile as much as it does me! Enjoy - Chrisi

Memory Box Clear Set

Hello all,

This card was made with one of the new Memory Box clear sets. It has the best florishes to use on so many projects.

I used patterned paper to stamp on because I loved the paper. I cut out the stamped dress form and popped it up so it's easier to see. I used one of the flourises on the corners as a little accent.

Two Fred Cards

Hello,

In my Fred Mullett classes last week at my LSS I made these two cards. The technique had us making unique, creative and wild background papers using stencils, spray inks and stuff to make shapes then cutting them into specific shape that best fits the created papers.

I loved the creative expression and will try it again soon on my own. Practice, practice, practice! Hope you like my creations.

Fred the Fish Boy!

Hello friends,

On Friday and Saturday I'm thrilled be to taking three classes at Angela's Happy Stamper with Fred B. Mullett (aka Fred the Fish Boy). They promise to be messy, educational and the best part is I'll come away with beautiful cards and new techniques.

Here's an example of some of his work:

I'll be happy to share some of my cards when the classes are over!

Classic Black & Red!

Hello Ya'll,

So here is another easy one to make. It's a Cuttlebug swiss dots background with layers of red and black. The image is from an Inkadinkado set (Pattern Pets) and I colored it with Copic Markers. I used the Bow Easy to make the bow quickly and easily. Click on that link for a quick video tutorial by my friend Laura.
