I made this fat page for the challenge at Crafters Cafe Challenge Blog – make an ATC or Fat page- the sponsor is Fred She Said, so go ahead and join.

The size is 4×4. I have used a few Fred She said images. Butterfly Doodle dallion set, Bearly Mine Designs Floral Surprise Paper and Whirlpool splash stencil mask– I did not use it as a mask as I do not have an electronic cutter, rather printed it on vellum (I did not want to lose the beauty of the page underneath) and colored it with copics and distress markers. I love this floral paper pack, it is gorgeous. I ahve used pickled paspberry distress ink. TOns of gems and spiral pearl flourish

I added lace and ribbon. I have lots of bling, sakura glitter pen on the bubbles and shiny rick rack. I used the splitcoaststampers sketch 424

brad, cardstock, celebration, copics, distress ink, distress markers, flower, gems, glossy accents, handmade card, handmade flowers, hearts, MFT dienamics, MFT finishing Flourishes, MFT stamps, My Mind's Eye, pearls, prisma pencils, rolled daisy, stickles

I made both of these cards for the MFT guest DT challenge 0213. I followed Inge’s instructions at the MFT academy,for both these cards. The difference is that one is colored with prisma pencils and one with copics and pencils.

This one is colored with prisma pencils, I went ahead and tried doing the pleats.

I’ve used one of my favorite PI-Cute-a-tude. Her cheeks have tattered rose distress markers and the background is tumbled sky. I added finishing flourishes to the circle on which she stands and I wanted to mimic the dots on the panel in the circle and so used LJD darling dots. I added vellum on it to soften the look and then popped her on it. The bottom has the crown border dienamic. I added some gems to it and some around her and on her shoes. I added stickles to her flower in her hair. There is the rolled daisy with stickles and a brad and the leafy flourish. All edges were brushed with Wild Honey distress ink. I added the sentiment formt he same PI set.

Here is the inside

This is the one with copics using same principles as in the pencils. I used BV colors to color her dress.

I have used the same PI-Cute-a tude. I also added finishing flourishes to the circle and added vellum on top Brushing it all with shaded lilac distress ink before popping her up on it. Also between the two circles there are pop dots. The bottom has medium scallops and they have some gems, love the look it gives, did you see the steel cardstock, it is awesome and a great match. I added the notched tag with it’s heart and to soften the steel cardstock I added vellum on it. These are beautiful printed vellum, it came in my daughter’s doll making collection, at times she finds pleasure in giving me papers that she likes me to use. I added hemp cord and a gem on the top with glossy acents. Her hair has stickles on the flower and her shoes have gems.

I made this using The Craft’s Meow January sketch.

The circle is cut with Quic Kutz die. Then I stamped a doily from Inkadinkado. I colored it with distress markers and added some Sakura glitter pen for shine. Buttons have a little twine on them and the butterfly is from my stash. I loved the simple sketch.

I used MFT sketch 102. It was so much fun to create this card.

I stamped the MFT snowman and then cut it with my latest postage stampe stax, I loved my fishtails and now am in love with this postage die.

I added some snowhills to it and followed the sketch. Those darling dots are precious and MFT ink is great. I also used the small heart from notched tags. a small bracket die, some embossing and lacing completed the card. At the end I added some stickles for the glitter.

I made this for the HYCCT1215A-Peaceful pink.

I have been wanting this digi from The Paper Shelter for some time, when I saw this challenge, I knew this was just perfect for it. For me to be able to read with no kids around would be indeed very peaceful and she looks so content. I colored her with tons of copics and the grass with distress markers. I also had some grass shooting upwards towards her legs. Love her pink pants. I am so happy as my son said this is like a picture printed from a book. I added a button, some MFT rose dienamics and a charm that spells love on a little heart.

One winner will receive ALL of this:
$25 GC to CropStop
£15 GC to Bearly Mine Designs
$25 GC to Fred She Said Store

Hop ends Friday, August 3, midnight EST.

Card 1 – Happy Wedding

I have used the newly released image at FSS– Wistful Emma Bride. Check her out in the store, she is adorable. Our weddings are never only white so I added lavender to her. Her veil has ice stickles. She is colored with copics- N family. There is lots of Sakura clear star pen. I added a sheer ribbon and lace. For the Winged things there are my Favorite FSS Ornate Butterflies and Blue Jay birds, Both colored with copics. The bride is holding another newly released image- precolored daisies. I added twine and the white and purple cardstock are embossed with cuttlebug folders.

Here is a close up of her and the second picture is the inside.

The inside has a sentiment from MFT birthday sentiments and FSS ornate butterfly.

Card 2- this is a Easel Card Box. This is fun to do and very gratifying. I truly loved it.

I learnt the details to make this box at this link on Joani’s blog. I used FSS Smelling The Cherry Blossom. I love the brick wall around her. I have lots of newly released ladybugs (colored with R29 and 22 wings have W3) busy around the wall, they are also what holds the card up. She is colored with copics and her Kimono is paper pieced with origami papers. Remember to print the plain one without flowers if you want to paper piece. The brick wall is colored with W-family.(W0,1,3,5,7)( the image does not come with only brick wall, but Tracey can get it to you if you request for one- she is awesome) The grass background was first colored with copics and then grass blades were made with distress markers-fine point. I added FSS precolored Pair of Robins and colored the butterflies(Flutterbies for your flowers) with copics. I added some lace and brads.

Here it is when open. I added the winter precolored flying birds. I added copics Blue family to darken them.

Here is the box closed

basic grey, brad, butterflies, cardstock, cloud, distress ink, distress markers, Fred She Said, glitter pens, handmade card, handmade flowers, MFT dienamics, My Mind's Eye, wheel barrow

I made this card using the new image Emma in her cool cap from Fred She Said. I used the precolored version. Normally I like to color my images, but she was so sweet, I could not, not make a card with Her. Her shirt is just adorable and it comes in 6 different colors, all the choice you need.

The thing I love about Fred She Said is that there are colored and uncolored versions and so you can pair them up as you like. I used the sketch Saturday

As you can see there is lots of Fred She Said here.

I used four different Fred She Said images. The Wheelbarrow– I colored it with many Distress markers-Scattered Straw, Mustard Seeds, Milled Lavender, Dusty Concord, Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick, Forest Moss, Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint, Fired Brick, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot. This image is a true pleasure to color. I then used Peeled Paint and Tumbled Glass distress inks to create the grass and the sky. I used Precolored Emma in her cool Cap and popped her on dimensionals. I added Flutterbies for your flowers(butterflies) I colored them with many different inks and pens. I used distress inks, glitter pens and distress markers. They are so beautiful and are great to tyr different mediums of color on. I added a MFT clearly sentimental about Harvesting sentiment, a ribbon and lots of brads. I also added a couple of MFT cloud dienamics. My last touch was the precolored Pink polka dotty flowers from Fred She Said, they are my absolute favorite flowers. Pattern Paper are from Basic Grey- Sweet threads and My Mind’s Eye- Dwell.
