Some tags to share -

Hi - just stopping by today to share a couple of my tags that were on display at CHA in the

Elizabeth Craft Designs Booth. 

For this one I used several of the previously released die sets from Karen Burniston, a new Clear Stamp Set and the tag set from Els van de Burgt, all linked below.

 

 

For this tag I started out with the great tag set by Els van de Burgt.  For the background I used one of the new Stage it Stencils from Karen Burniston.  All the die sets, stencils and stamp sets are linked below.  

Have a great weekend,

More CHA

Welcome back - today I'm just going to show you a few of, for me, the highlights of the show.

It's pretty exciting to have your work on display for the entire industry to see so please bare with me as I brag a little.

 

 

I'm sure you couldn't have guessed that the ones with the big yellow arrows are mine (subtle huh).

 

 

Here are Jinks and Baker showing off.

 

 

 

Nothing more fun than spending time with friends!

 

See you tomorrow with a few more,

My CHA Adventures

Hi -

I just returned home from CHA last night and will be sharing some of my adventures with you this week. 

 

I'm so excited to tell you about a brand new E-Book that was released the first day of the show by Karen Burniston of  Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I'm so proud to say that I'm featured in it along with Karen and the entire Pop it Ups Designer Challenge Team.  Each of us made a project focusing on the new release along with complete

 photo and written instructions.  

 

 

You can peruse the book easily on a computer, phone or tablet at this link: Pop it Ups Cardmaking Winter 2016 If you'd like to download the book so you can print it, choose the "Share" button and then choose "Download". Issuu also has a free mobile app if you prefer.

 

 

Here I am with Karen at the Elizabeth Craft Designs booth where my

Barrel of Monkeys card was on display.

 

Hope to see you tomorrow when I will be sharing more photos from the show.

Card #2 for January 28, 2016

Hi again,

I'm back today to share the second card we will be making at The Paper Collage on January 28th.  This time we will be using the Oval Pull Card designed by Karen Burniston and the Hot Air Balloon designed by Joset de van Burgt.  All part of the new release from Elizabeth Craft Designs.

 

 

 

 

The design of the card makes the balloon appear to be flying through the air.  Please contact the store for details by clicking here.

 

Come join us to see how it's done,

Class card for January 28, 2016

Hi all,

I am currently away having a great time at CHA but thought I would share this cute card that I am teaching at The Paper Collage on January 28th.  For details on the class, contact the store by

clicking here.

 

The front of the card and the verse on the inside features a great new set of dies, Stitched Ovals, designed by Els de van Burgt - owner of Elizabeth Craft Designs.  The fun Pop Up Cake on the inside, designed by Karen Burniston for Elizabeth Craft Designs, is being released this week at CHA.   Both die sets are available for purchase starting next week. 

 

Hope to see you at The Paper Collage,

2016 The Year of the Monkey

Hi my friends-

I hope you will join me at Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog today for a full tutorial on how I made this cute little décor item featuring Jinks the Monkey.  Jinks is one of the new character dies from
Karen Burniston for Elizabeth Craft Designs.

 

Hope to see you there,

Happy New Year

HAPPY NEW YEAR - I'm stopping by today to wish everyone a happy & healthy new year and to share a tag for the first day of 2016.

I've been playing with some of the fabulous new papers from Elizabeth Craft Designs called "Through the Lens" designed by Els van de Burgt.  I feel in love with these papers at first sight and couldn't wait to start using them. There are three categories, Wood, Metal & Stone and they are all just beautiful.  They will be available soon.  Today I'm using Metal for the background and Stone for the brick mortar.

 

 The paper and dies I used are linked below.

 

OK, I see that the theme for Mixed Media Monthly Challenge is "Time Flies", this tag will fit that theme perfectly.

 

 

I had no idea when I made this that it would fit so many other challenges out there in blogland but I will also be adding it to Crazy 4 Challenges. They want "Z", for zipper of course.

 

 

Hope this is your best year yet!!!
