If you can't TONE it...TAN it!!

Hello Ai fans!

It may be Fall outside but a girl can dream.  With Art Impressions Tan It Set from the SHAKERS line it can be summer all year long!  

There are so many new Shakers including lots for the upcoming Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.  If you're not familiar with the Shaker stamps listen up!  They're interactive.  In this case you attach her little tushie to her using a WOBBLE and it shakes.

The beach lady comes with a verse too!

This is a second version that I made with her.

Purple Sympathy and Birthday

 Hello and happy Wednesday!

Today I'm sharing two very similar cards.  The first is a sympathy card and the second is a birthday card.  I used the same papers and layout but changed up the sentiments.

The frame and sentiments are from Gina K.

The frames were cut using the coordinating Spellbinders die

and the cross is from SB too.

The ink is Blackberry Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink.

It's Christmas in July...sort of!

Hello Ai fans!

Welcome to week number two of Art Impressions Create with Christmas challenge.  The challenge is NOT to create a Christmas card but to make a card (or project) using a Christmas stamp in a different way.  I used four different Ai Christmas stamps and one birthday verse.

Block Letter BLESSED (Sku#H2776)

I just used the "Wishing you a" portion

Polar Phil (Sku#I4077)

Polar Skaters (Sku#Q4083)

I just used the center bear and hid his ice skates behind grass.

Sitting Polars (Sku#P4081)

I trimmed out the bear holding the candy cane.

Wouldn't this be a great card for a child's birthday or

even just for someone who loves Polar Bears!

It goes to show you that you should be looking at your stamps in a new way.  Just because it may be meant for one season or holiday doesn't mean it can be reinvented! 

I used this verse on the inside...

GF Happy Birthday (Sku#E3578)

Doesn't this little cutie just put a smile on your face?!
