Two cards I created for Outlawz Challenge.

I recently joined the Outlawz Challenge  I had seen various crafters posting these challenges on their blogs so thought I would check it out.  One of the challenges is the CFC Freebie challenge which I wanted to participate in since I am trying to learn how to use my new Copic Markers.  Here are the two cards I created using the free digital Images.  Aren't the images cute?

MPC Digi Dessert Fridaze

This is my card for Digi Dessert Fridaze.  The cute little digi is from Paper Crafting World and called QT Patootie boy with frog .  I added punched grass, ribbon in a button, and a stamp for the front that says Fishing you a Happy Birthday.  

i hope you will check out the other designers projects too.  They always inspire me. 

MPC Totally Tags n' ATC's with gems

Good morning, 

Suzanne of Cricut Crafting Grammy. We are back on Thursdays to explore different themes, elements, techniques or embellishments. This week we are using Gems on our tags and ATC's. There is no restriction on what tools are used to create these tags or ATC's. It could be a die cut machine, punches, stamps, etc. The sky is the limit. However if the Design Team uses Digis or SVG's they will be from Paper Crafting World. As a side note, if you don't know what an ATC card is, we have a definition at the bottom of our post.

I hope you will join us each Thursday here at My Paper Crafting for 

Totally Tags n' ATC's.

This is my tag for the gem challenge today.  I made this tag using a Graphic 45 Kraft paper tag.  I covered it with some embossed paper I got from a friend.  It is cream in color and I inked the top in blue and the bottom in green.  I stamped a Prima Doll Stamp onto paper and  again on flowered scraps for the dress.  The pieces are then cut out, colored with Prismacolor Pencils and added to the tag.  I used some burlap to add texture and flowers with added gems to the centers.  Some sheer green ribbon was added to the top.   There are 6 Prima doll stamps and 6 new ones coming out soon.  I tell you they are totally addicting.  

Be sure to come back tomorrow for another

Timeless Album Bo Bunny and Prima

It's time to honor Dear O'l Dad this week at My Paper Crafting.  This mini book is one I recently designed for a class at the scrapbook store where I teach.  The book was designed for dads, grand pas and other special guys in your life.  The basic book is an older book from Bo Bunny and I used the Engraver Prima paper for the rest of the album.  I made several cuts for this project using the Cricut carts- Sentimentals, Graphically Speaking,  

Here is the cover.  We made rosettes with the Tim Holtz Rosette maker, bottle caps, and buttons.  

Swirls made from Sentimentals and the Time cut from Graphically Speaking 

Cogs and wheels also cut out with the Cricut and some added Recollections Washi tape. 

A mini book cut out from Sentimentals.  The cut out was used on another page.  

Burlap for texture and a pocket for additional pictures 

Another mini for more photos and a piece of Tim Holtz filmstrip.  

More tags and vintage graphics 

Corrugated cardboard cover for an accordian book.  

Embossed Kraft paper and then inked with Distress Ink. 

I hope you have enjoyed my project and that you are inspired to join us for the challenge this week.

Let's all celebrate our dads and then link up to My Paper Crafting.    

Happy Craftin.  

Fourth of July layouts with Autentique and Bo Bunny

One of the really fun parts of  teaching at the local scrapbook store is I get to make samples when new paper comes in.  Since Fourth of July is next month we have a lot of new patriotic paper in stock right now. The first two double layouts are from the Authentique Pride Collection.  

I love the vintage feel of this paper.  

This layout is done with Bo Bunny Anthem Collection. Bright and bold and lots of fun graphics.  

Red, white and blue cards with Autentique and Bo Bunny

These cards were made using the new lines from Bo Bunny 

and Authentique.  

They are on display at the scrapbook store where I teach Scrapbook Blessings in Newbury Park, California.  

My first Copic class with Greeting Farm and Saturated Canary stamps

Today I took my first class on using Copics at the LSS.  I had so much fun!  Robin a friend of mine did a great job teaching.  She has been helping me here and there but it was really helpful for me to take  the class.  Looking forward to more!

The first two cards are using Greeting Farm Stamps 

This one is a Saturated Canary stamp.
