Papercraft Business Challenge - Up in the Air

Hello, crafty friends! Today begins a new monthly challenge over at the Papercraft Business Challenge Blog! Our theme for this month is....UP IN THE AIR! What a fun thing to work on! Before you read on, check to see if you were a winner for last month's challenge over at the Papercraft Blog! Here is the prize for this month's challenge:

What great projects you could make with this one! Now on to my project:

For this challenge, I decided to go with a tag. I already had in my stash some Julie Netting product, which included a wooden doll with a kite. I should have taken a before picture of it, but I forgot.  So I've linked it to the Prima website HERE. This is the tag I made:

For the tag base, I used some of the pre-cut tags from Julie Nutting. I got out my Distress Oxide Inks...LOVE them...and added various colors. I then got out my wooden doll and kite and colored them with my Spectrum Noir color markers. With that done, I added some stamps and embellishments. Instead of adding lace at the bottom, I just used a floral acrylic stamp. And she was done! Easy peasy, right? (Although the ink seemed to bleed a little, it ended up better than I thought it would.)

I hope that you will join us for the July challenge! Up in the Air could mean anything....a kite, a butterfly, a plane, etc....You choose and show us what you created! Thank you for stopping by!

Papercraft Business Challenge #8 - Anything Goes!

Hello, fellow crafters! Today begins the new challenge (#8) for the month of July over at Papercraft Business Challenge Blog! We have an awesome prize to give away, too! A Magnolia Doohickey Tilda Doily! 

I decided that, rather than making a card this time around, I would make a Julie Nutting tag, using some elements from a kit I had bought. Here is my tag:

I used some Tim Holtz Ink Oxides for the background and then sprinkled a little bit of water onto the tag. I then stamped a "paragraph" stamp onto the top of that. I colored my wooden Julie Nutting doll with alcohol markers, set her aside a bit to dry, and then found embellishments I wanted to use with her. After she dried, I cut a flower in half, glued them onto each side of the tag, then added her. The laces, etc, didn't take long to put together since I already had out what I wanted to use.

I hope that you will join us for this month's challenge! And check out each of the Design Teams projects! THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!

Prima Princesses Stamp - Aubrey

Hello once again, my fellow crafty peeps! I am excited to show you my latest tag! This is one I got from ScrapbookingwithMe Boutique through their Facebook Page. The paper in the background is the Graphic 45 Portrait of a Lady I also bought through them. Everything else is from my stash.

I had originally done this for the Tag Swap there. I was excited I had my tag all done when I read all the rules again...and found out it's 8-4"x2" tags! (I must learn to read!! Lol) Anyway, I was so proud of the fact that I had it all done! Alas....! Anyway, Let me show you my tag:

I won't go into great detail about the making of the tag, but I did use Prismacolors for her and the bird. I made the flowers you see there also. :)

I hope you enjoyed my little project! Be sure to visit ScrapbookingwithMe and tell them Jeanie sent you (Scrapbookingmamaw)!

Thanks for stopping by!
