Hello! Tracy here today. It’s an anything goes kind of day!  Do you stipple? I love creating stippled or dotted backgrounds.

Today I used Summer Flower Tilda from Magnolia Stamps. The paper I used is from Prima Marketing.  I created the dotted border by just pulling different colored copics that matched colors int he paper and making tiny dots all around Tilda. I then layered and layered them. I love how it came out.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Hello and welcome to “freebie” Wednesday.   What does that mean?   It means  the members of the design team take turns sharing a little about themselves or about  an interest they may have other than cards.

I want to share a new passion of mine.   I have recently purchased a Silhouette Cameo and   I am in LOVE!

Isn’t she sweet?  My heart goes pitter patter every time I look at this baby!

The Silhouette Cameo is an electronic cutting machine that has a 12 inch cutting mat.
I really like this becaue I can create 3-D projects that are large enough  to hold a lot of goodies and the preciion cuts are unbelievable!

I purchased the Delux Software (on sale) last week and have been enjoying looking at all
the gorgeous SVG files that I can now cut.

I really love the fact that there are over a thousand  downloadable images to choose from.   Yes – I want them all!

I know I am going to be finding ways to use my new Cameo for many of my MarkerPOP posts.  

I visited many of our challenge entries yesterday  and I must say – you are all amazing!

I love the entries we have so far!   Challenge # 15 (Pretty In Pink) ends 2/3.     I hope to see your entry  there!

I hope you have a wonderful, safe   and crafty week.

Hi everyone, it’s Kelli here today! I have a card to share with you using the Whiff of Joy – Tea Party stamp, which I stamped in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics:
skin- E02, E01, E00, E000
hair- E35, Y35, Y23, Y15, Y11
dress and hat bow- R29, R27, R24, R22
hat and teapot- BG09, BG07, BG05, BG02
shoes- C4, C3, C2
table- E29, E27, E25, E23
bear- E17, E15, E13, R20
bunny- C3, C2, C1, R20
teacups and saucers- Y35, Y15, Y11

I wanted the sentiment to look like it was wrapping around the card to so I attached the main part on the left and a smaller piece on the right. The red patterned paper is from the My Mind’s Eye – Winter Wonderland 6×6 paper pad. I love when there are papers in holiday packs that don’t necessarily have to be used for that holiday! That’s why I usually never put my holiday supplies away. I used some Sun Kissed Baker’s Twine and wrapped it around a couple times and added an October Afternoon – Cakewalk button. I couldn’t help but add some Glossy Accents to the teapot and teal parts of the cups!

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day! 🙂

Hi, everyone!  It’s Kelli here today to share a card with you that I actually made a little while ago for Issue 9 of the Whimsy eMagazine!  I used the adorable Whimsy – Lovin’ Turtle and stamped him in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and colored him with my Copics.  There is a new Whimsy stamp out, Turtle’s Friend, that is similar to this guy and is also adorable!  I love anything animal related!  The background is from the Whimsy – Everyday Mini Postage stamp set.  The patterned papers I used are from the Echo Park 6×6 pads – Note to Self, So Happy Together and Hello Summer.  The spiral edge is done using the Whimsy – Spiral Notebook Border Die.  I added some dimension to the hearts on his shell by stamping and coloring them on a separate sheet of card stock, cutting them out and popping them up on dimensional adhesive.  I added some Glossy Accents to the hearts and his cheek to finish everything off!

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!  🙂
