Tony's Tiny Joke Book (Part 3)

 Hello Ai fans!

Welcome to my last installment of Tony's Tiny Joke Book.

I shared the previous pages, cover and box in prior posts.
Those can be found HERE and HERE.

I was asked to make a birthday card for a 9 year old boy with a 9 year old sense of humor.
I thought a little journal filled with silly dad jokes and riddles would be perfect for him.



The questions are on top of a flap and the answers are underneath.

I paired a cute animal with each joke.

I mean, how cute are these little guys?!

I loved that the Art Impressions Designer Paper
makes it so easy to coordinate an entire journal.

I hope you enjoyed Tony's Tiny Joke Book.
I'm told that he did.

Doggies Need to Stay Hydrated Too!

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I have some dog themed shaker cards for you.

These did not set out to be shakers.
I had cut the dog out with my circle dies and had
intended to leave it just like that with a matte around it.
I still had my snow globe domes out from last week though
and noticed that they would fit perfectly around this little guy.

After stamping and coloring the image I used Diamond Stickles to drip water

out of the tumbler onto the floor.  You can just ignore the little dog hair 

that attached itself to my dome...lol! 

(We'll just say it's there for authenticity)

I have always cut a circle frame to put around the dome when I've 

used it in the past but I didn't this time because I wanted to be able to 

see the entire tumbler. I used the paw print die to cut a stencil out for the

tumbler. Once I had the die cut OUT, I used a black marker to stencil the 

paw onto the tumbler.

I love finishing the insides of my cards as well.

I have so many friends that are dog lovers that will enjoy

this card. I hope you do too!

Gone Fishing! from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

This summer I had a request for a camping themed card.
My cousin camps all summer long and really wanted a lot on the water.
One of the camp employees went above and beyond to help her with that
and she wanted to thank her.

I used 5187 – Happy Trails Set to represent Mike and Joann.

The sailboat is from the 5325 – Sail Mini Dies.  They love to sit on the 

dock and look at the lake so I tried to recreate that scene. My card

fits with the Lions, Tigers, Bears, OH MY! current challenge at Art Impression. 

Any crafty project with an animal on it.  I used a dog and fish.  What will you create?

Joann LOVES to fish and so I used the 4900 – Reel Great Guys Set to make the sign
and fish bucket then I used AiCS38 – Doggy Kisses Set because
they have a boxer named Darcy.

I tried to make the dog look like her.

Hoping for a speedy recovery!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a get well card
made with the AiCS38 –Doggy Kisses Set.

I work in an elementary school so it seems like there's always someone sick.  Cards like this one are always good to have on hand.  I fell in love with this set as soon as I saw it because I love dogs so much.

It's rough being sick but a fun card like this

will hopefully brighten someone's day!

At least you don't need a cone!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing my mom's get well card.

She recently had surgery and I wanted to lighten the mood a bit. I think she enjoyed her card a lot.

I used AiCS38 – Doggy Kisses Set.

For the sentiment I used 5134 – Banner Double Stitched Dies.

On the inside I used another sentiment and a few

of the smaller stamps from the set.

I made an alternate version to have on hand just in case.

Doggie Kisses to help you feel better!

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a card that I made for a student in my school.  Her oldest brother was driving himself, the middle brother and her to school and had an accident.  She was pretty banged up but was okay.  She kept the card on her desk for 2 days before taking it home.

I used AiCS38 – Doggy Kisses Set

from Art Impressions FUNNY FARM line.

This is an alternate version I made to keep on hand just in case...

This was the inside of both cards.

This set is so much fun because it has all the little extra stamps to accent your card with.
