TTCRD Challenge - Week of February 19th, 2019

Hello, fellow crafters! Today began a new challenge over at Through the Craft Room Door!  And for this challenge, we are sponsored by the amazing Createful Heart Digis and Designs!  

I'm excited to share with you my card for this week's challenge as a Design Team Member with TTCRD. Here it is, using Beau & Butterfly!  

I thoroughly enjoyed doing this image. Such fun! And...if you'll notice....I added a bow and a butterfly (Reneabouquets) to my card. Unintentionally! But it just happened and seemed so fitting!

Shadow Box Project

Hello, Crafters! Today I just want to share with you a project I made. I had entered a Facebook challenge a few months back, and even won! Woo-hoo! Was I excited! This was through Reneabouquets, using items from her shop. You can find her shop through her Facebook page.

I won't be sharing with you details on this, but if you click HERE you'll be directed to that blog regarding how it was made and the supplies. Just a short time ago, I asked my husband if he would make a shadow box for this mixed media project...so now for the big reveal!!

I do hope you enjoyed looking at this project! It was so fun to do! Thank you for stopping by!

Reneabouquets February Romantic/Valentine Challenge

Hello, crafters! Today I want to share with you a card I made for a Facebook Challenge over at Reneabouquets.  It was such a fun card to make! Here it is:

One of the rules to enter this challenge, is to use some product from Reneabouquets Shop. If you're familiar with Renea's shop, you'll see several items that I've used that I bought in her shop. The texture paste, the Butterfly cutout (which I divided up), Heart Stencil, Diamond Glass Glitter, and the little mirror. I hope I didn't miss anything!

Mixed Media of any kind is one of my favorite things to do! I hope you enjoyed this....And I hope you'll follow my blog!

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Card

Hi crafters! I wanted to share with you a card I made for a friend of mine. I'm afraid it might not make it there in time for Christmas....but I sure hope it does!

First off, I want to tell you that I got the idea from a card on a Pinterest Board, a board by Create with Connie and Mary. I never could find the directions to the card, but I tried to duplicate as much as possible and added some of my own elements to it. The card they made is gorgeous! I wish I had that stamp, too! Anyway, here is my card:

At first, I made the card without the butterfly and the flowers, because I wanted to enter them into a couple of Facebook challenges, and then I added some more elements. As you can see, the base card has been embossed with a snow and bell theme. I embossed the tree with my Zing silver embossing powder, and also the banner sentiment. I mounted the tree with 3D foam circles onto another sheet of white mounting paper, then placed that on top of the silver glitter paper. I added a bow, butterfly, and 3 flowers onto the top right of the card. The flowers are from Secret Garden Crafts and the butterfly and Diamond Glass Glitter is from Reneabouquets. 

I hope you enjoyed this little project of mine! And thank you so much for stopping by!

Outlawz Color Challenge - Oct 24, 2017

Welcome to another Color Challenge over at The Outlawz!  This month our Sponsor is

Fabrika Fantasy

Our winner will get 3 digis from the store!

This week, our Photo Inspiration was chosen by DT Member, Jeanie (hey! That's me!). And here is the image I chose as inspiration with a Twist of FALLAUTUMN, using at least 3 colors:

I love this image. I thought it was perfect for this time of the year. So for my card, I chose to use the Fairy-tale Princess. I could have used the pre-colored image, but I wanted to go ahead and color mine....although I saw that it still was basically the same colors! Lol! Oh well....

Here is my card:

I tried to give her some glitter by using Diamond Glass Glitter on her shoes, fan, and bow, plus some Micro-beads, all from Reneabouquets store. I also added applique leaves that I got from Kimberly's Zibbet Store, KPKre8tions. 

I hope that you will come and join us for this week's challenge! It's always fun to try to see what you can come up with when you use specific colors!

Thanks for stopping by!

Accordion Mini Album Facebook Challenge

Hello, crafty peeps! I hope that you're having a wonderful day! Today I want to share with you a project I did with a Facebook group, Cardstock & Bling. Since I had never made an accordion album before, this was a real challenge for me! Thank goodness they provided a tutorial link! Whew! Here is a link for that YouTube channel: Kim Kan't Stop Krafting. If you do decide to make this awesome little album, be sure to watch it through first, as it has some pointers in there.

Here is my album, using some Prima paper. For the life of me, I can't remember the name of it and I no longer have the cover to the pad. (insert sad face here....)

Front View (Cover)

Back Cover

Side View

Single Pocket Inserts

Double Pocket Inserts w/Magnetic Inserts

Because this posting includes a tutorial on the making of this album, I won't go into that kind of details. But suffice it to say, it was challenging at times, but I really enjoyed it. The tutorial was very well made. I do plan on making more! 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Mixed Media Project

Okay, all you crafty peeps! I've created a Mixed Media project. It's been awhile since I created one like this, but when the Challenge came in for Reneabouquets in her Facebook page event, I had to try! Plus, a FB friend of mine with ScrapbookingwithM.E Facebook Group, also mentioned how great the Art Alchemy acrylic paint Sparks are...so naturally, that went right along with what I needed! It was my first time using them, but I must say...they are AWESOME!

Here is my project:

I used various items from both Reneabouquets, such as Gold Micro Beads, Diamond Glass Glitter, the Butterfly, the stencil....and the Art Alchemy paint was from ScrapbookingwithMe. Links are above when you click on their names. 

The process was such a fun thing to do! I love mixed media anyway. I first glued everything (bottom layered items) onto the board, then used Gesso on top of all that. Then I painted over that with black acrylic paint. Next came the Alchemy paints....CAN WE SAY FUN??? I can! I then added all the beads, glitter to various areas, added some top layers (such as the stick pin I made, the little jewel in the bottom right I also made, the angels a swap partner sent me, and the beautiful butterfly. Lastly, I used Glossy Accents to string the chain around the canvas. 

I hope you enjoyed this little project of mine! And thanks for stopping by!
