Elf Queen Sparkle / Swirl with Happiness ( A&M Memories ) Video

Hi everyone and welcome back, I am Lisa hope all is well. I have two cards to share with you. Both cards are done with A&M Memories stamps. I did a coloring video on the Elf Queen Sparkle card, so I could share a couple of my techniques. These tips are what I found work for me. Crafters Companion Smooth Card Stock

This is a cut outs of a gift with gems inside to make it a shaker. I did not like that the burlap did not have any color so I used the Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers to give it a little color.

This is the base card measures 4 x 5 1/2.

This is the top layer of the card this measures 3.75 x 5.25., and I used foam tape to adhere to the base of the card.

This is the gift with the Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers.

This is the washi tape I used for additional color to the card.

I added the sentiment to the card and it had some hang over on the card, just cut so that it is even with the card.

Adhere the stamp and the gift box to the card.

This stamp can be found on etsy Digistamp Ice Skating

After coloring the card I put together the same as the above card.

I added some glossy accents to this card to make the ice look shinny.

Two great Christmas Cards and not to much work. Just a little time coloring. Home made cards are great as gifts, make sure you sign and date that back. If you have any questions please let me know and as always Happy Crafting.

"Hebrews" Coffee Card ( Skipping Stones Design ) Oct 16th Blog Hop

Hi everyone and welcome to Skipping Stones Design's October blog hop. For my card I have decided to use the Coffee stamp #2 . I colored the coffee cup with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers . This is a Digi stamp so after printing I did wait 24hr before coloring with the Alcohol markers to make sure the ink is completely dry, so I do not have any mixing of the printer ink with the alcohol marker colors. I had a great time creating this card. Please scroll down for pictures, supplies ( link's ), a how toooooo, and a tutorial at the end. Make sure you visit the links below to see other cards made by Skipping Stones Design Team.

Working with the Gemini Apple Core Dies

Tips for sewing Apple Core Shapes..... This will go on Sale on HSN January 24th., they will go fast make sure you get yours. 1st you will have one that will go sideways which is the Con-Caved Core and you will have one the will be long ways. You always want the con-caved Apple Core on top when sewing together. So my Con-caved apple core is the red strips, fold in half and press a seam. The yellow one fold in half long ways and press. Put right sides together and place the pressed seam on top one an other and pin. This is very important to sew straight. Now match up and pin both outside corners. The fabric will be buckled like the picture and that is fine. It should look like this when taking to the sewing machine. Below is a little video on sewing Apple Core Shapes.
