I Brake for OZ!

Hello and happy Saturday!!

Today I'm sharing the card that I made for my sister's birthday...this coming November.  Yes,  I may have planned a little bit ahead. I've been a fan of I Brake for Stamps for a VERY long time.  Some how I had never seen this set until recently.  My sister is a HUGE Wizard of Oz fan and I just couldn't wait to make her this card!!

The set is called MOVIE POSTERS SHEET and it has 8 images on it. I used 5 of them on my card.

I got on Google to see how to color this more accurately and found this Spanish poster that matched the image.

This is the inside of the card right now but they may change before I send it to my sister.  I remembered that I have a small shoe die so I might cut some ruby slippers out and add them.

To create my sparkly "ruby" border around the poster I used a FUSIBLE GLITTER SHEET.  These aren't really meant to be used like paper but I can't get enough of that glorious sparkle these sheets have!!  This one is the RED.  Check out the link to see all you can do with these sheets!  I have a bunch of colors and they're all stunning!  You can use them to iron onto clothing or other craft projects.  

Happy Graduation Lo and Ab!

Hello and happy Tuesday!

Today I'm sharing the graduation cards that I made for two of my daughter's friends.

They're both big athletes so I wanted to include the sneakers.  The school colors are red and royal blue but I wanted to soften the card a bit and went with a lighter blue gingham.

Lauren is blonde so this card was hers.

Abi is a brunette so her card had darker hair.

The graduates are popped up on foam tape to give the card some dimension and the 18 was cut from a Fusible Glitter Sheet I got at I Brake for Stamps.

New Christmas Reindeer PopCard from Art Impressions!

Hello Ai fans!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today I'm sharing a sweet new PopCard from Art Impressions.

This one is called Reindeer PopCard.

The reindeer goes on the inside of the card and you can see him through the window on the front of the card.

Isn't he cute?!

He's peeking through 4619 – Window Die.

When you open the card he springs to life popping up to make a 3-D deer.

Here you can see just how much he "pops."

Don't you love that glittery nose?  I used a Red Fusible Glitter Sheet.

Don't forget to check out all the other DT members cards.  Some have featured new PopCards and some feature some new Girlfriends. 

I Brake for S'Whale Whales!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made for my friend.

I've used the Whale Set from Sea Critters Complete Set

from I Brake for Stamps.

I decided to create a shaker window card.  The sequins and beads are on the front of the card and you can see through the shaker to the inside of the card where the whale is.  I also used some of the fusible glitter sheets on the anchor.  I just cut a small piece off the sheet and ran it and the die through my Cuttlebug.

Here's the inside of my card with one of the sentiments from the Whale Set.

Here you can see some of the fun shaker elements shaken up a bit.

"Sea" ya later!

I Brake for Graduations!

Hello and happy Saturday!

I'm working in overdrive right now.  I have a junior and a senior this spring. Right now my baby is at school taking her SAT test.  My senior is out doing yard work with my husband.  I am frantically trying to get graduation cards made for his friends!

Their school colors are red and blue so I paired this amazing image from I Brake for Stamps with this fun paper.

GRAD OWL

Now...this is new for me.  I ordered a bunch of FUSIBLE GLITTER SHEETS last month.  All I can say is...what took me so long!  These are GORGEOUS!!  The camera doesn't do it justice. (at least my camera doesnt')  These have tremendous shimmer and shine!  So far I've only die cut them to use on cards but I'm already in love!  My daughter and I are thinking about what we might be able to create for t-shirts.  You heard me!  This can be used on fabric too!!  I used the RED on this card but I ordered about 10 colors so you'll get to see many more in the future.  They're all beautiful!

My owl looks much darker (tan) in person.  I need a new camera!

On the inside I used...
