Need a Hug?

Need A Hug?

Do you need a hug?  I believe we all do at some time and right now, I sure could use a hug or two -- from my granddaughters!!

Supplies used:

• Digital stamp "Need a Hug?" by Sunsational Stamps
• Swiss dot embossing folder used to emboss the larger mat
• paper designs from my Silhouette Studio "My Library"
• Brads, buttons and baker twine

Measurements for layered pieces

    Main mat: 13cm x 13cm (5x5)in
                       8cm x 5 cm (3x2)in
                       12cm x 4 cm (4 3/4 x 1 1/2) (used 11cm x 6 cm)in
                       3cm x 2cm (1 1/4 x 3/4)in
                       9cm in diameter  (3 1/2 in in diameter)

TIP:  when converting from Metric (centimeters) to Standard just change your measurements in your Studio software under preferences from Auto to CM and than when checking the size of your pieces or changing the sizes, you can just enter the cm numbers and will come up to that size. (unless you know how to do the math!!)

I placed the main mat thru the Sizzix Big Shot and embossed it 2 times since the mat was a bit wider than the embossing folder.  And the little 'gap' between the dots covered by the placement of the mats.

Basically, this card makes a 5x5 (size of base card is approx 5.25 x 10.25).

Thank you for stopping by to visit with us at Sunsational Stamps, and for more inspiration, please stop by my blog here .  Have a blessed day, and hugs to all...xoxo

Good morning, Carolyn here to share with you what I created using the digi stamp "Lisa" from Sunsational Stamps.

The main layer of the front mat I cut out a fancy label mat, and using the same cut piece, I created a lattice and than applied to the main mat and framed it with brown card stock.   

I traced the image, Lisa in my Silhouette Studio and colored with Stampin! Up markers, but the hat and brim is paper pieced from another image of Lisa that I hand-cut.  Placed Lisa on the edge of the lattice window using foam tape.  Flowers from from a swap that I participated in on Facebook at one time.

Please visit me at Granny Ma's Creative Blog to see what I've been up to lately.

Thank you for stopping by, and hugs to all...xoxo

Rag doll scrapbook page by Marji

I am sharing a sweet scrap book layout today.  I take so many pictures of my daughter it's crazy and now she will pose and say, "mom, take a picture of us" and have her doll or a toy.  I can't say no, can I?

 This page is inspired by one of those moments.  I used the rag doll image and changed her outfits by using the print and cut feature and the colors and patterns in my Cameo.

 I also used my Zink Happy photo printer to make the title.  It's such a fun printer.

 Here's a close up of the dolls, I had a lot of fun making their outfits different.

 Emily saw this page and she wanted to know who those girls were"  She was not satisfied when I told her I didn't have anyone in mind, they were just baby dolls.  So please let me introduce you to "Jessica", "Bella", and "Elsa".  :)

Easter scrapbook page by Marji

This stamp makes me giggle, they are so cute, hanging out in their bunny slippers munching on their M&M's

I wanted to make a simple lay out for Easter so I kept them as my focal point just adding one simple flower, a Layered Garden Beauty from Pinque Peacock.

I colored them with my colored pencils.  I gave them colored tummies and muzzles to add to the fun Easter feel.  I added crystal effects to their eyes and noses and on the slipper faces as well as the M&M's. 

I hope you like it!
