Trimmed card stock to 4.25x11 for the base and using my word punch paper punch I created two slots for the pop-down 1x4 strip will be adhered to.  I attached to the pop-out tab and foam taped the coin bucket to the bottom, making sure it does not show at bottom.  

Front I trimmed a piece of the printed design paper for a topper (to close the holes left from the pop-out tab) and punched a edge of eyelets on the topper edge and on the edge of the front of card, and on the top and bottom edge of the inside matting.  Using my Silhouette Studio DE I printed and cut the Leprechaun, Bucket of gold, and title and placed on shadow background and placed on foam tapes to the front of card, inside top, and on the  strip of card to create a pop-out effect.  From the left-over trimmings of the design paper, I placed a small border just top of the eyelet punched area.

Owl Always Need You

Hello Everyone, DT Sandy for today's Sunsational Stamps project...

I just fell in love with these stamps when I spied them in the store. They are just darling and a perfect image to color.

I used color pencils and odorless mineral spirits (OMS) for my coloring. I also ran the pink Core'dinations card stock through the embosser with my hearts folder and sanded. A very easy and simple card to make.

Hope you like this card project. You can check out Sunsational Stamps store for many more wonderful stamps and.for more inspiration, check out my blog A Working Mom's Joy

Thank you for stopping by, and happy stamping to all.

Sweet Squirrel easel card

Today I'm using this adorable squirrel image, isn't' she cute?  

 I went way out there on this one, if you've got someone who's really depressed, this would be a great card to make them smile.  I made it an easel card so it can be displayed and remind them to Think Happy Thoughts!

 I made a simple crochet chain with some twine, then added lots of punch art confetti.  I keep a small box for all the tiny punch pieces I have from projects.  I simply swirled my glue then laid the pieces in place then sprinkled some dazzling diamonds glitter over the wet glue.

I gave her a flower in her ear and pierced her other one with a pearl, lol, then gave her a pile of confetti to sprinkle about!

This is what the whole inside of the card looks like.

She's also got some crystal effects on her eyes and nose.

Suzy Snowflake

Sandy here with my DT project for Sunsational Stamps...

I saw Suzy Snowflake int the shop, and knew I love to make something with her. So using her as my inspiration, I decided I was make a little gift box that I could fill with hot chocolate packages and marshmallows. 

The box is pre-made and I purchased a couple of them after the holidays. I colored the digi with Spectrum Nior markers, used pattern paper for my background, and add a cute little tag that I punch out with my circle punch.

Sweet mouse bringing you some spring time love

Hey there! How are you today?  I hope you are warm enough, this winter has got to get moving soon!

Spring is near, so I thought I'd bring you a little bit of it with this card.

This is one of my most favorite images of Lisa's, the little mouse is so very sweet.

I used my Copics to color her in, I let my cameo do her print and cut thing ;)

 She's mounted on an action wobble, it really makes the card so much more fun I think.

Here's the whole card, it's a twisted easel.  I used owl accents since mice are always hiding from owls to save their tails right?

Snowfall card 01/27/2014

Hello, Edwina of the dt here today. I am using 2 stamps by Sunsational Stamps called "Snowfall" and, "Snowfall 2". You can find them here http://www.sunsationalstamps.com/category_14/Winter.htm .

 

I colored the images with Copics. Then using a fine tip glue pen I outlined them then added glitter to both Snowfall words. I also added glitter to the bells. Then when they were dry cut the cards stock down around the images and mounted them on light blue card stock. Then I punched out a snow flake border. added the snowflakes in the corner and used glitter glue to make the flourish.

 

Copics used are Y11, Y13, B91, B93, B95, B97- top snowball hat, B21, B23, B26, B28- middle hat, B000, B00, B01, B02, B05- bottom hat, BG000,B12, B52- hat on single snowball, YR01, YR04, YR09- noses, R22, R24- mouths, E43, E44, E47- arms, W3, W5, W7- shoes, B21, B23, B24- words.
