Ball State Grad

 

IC997 - Kate Mcenroeny and Pinterest - INSPIRATION

I just fell in love with the inspiration, and it was perfect for me to create with my new die cut from Scrappy Boy Stamps. I die cut the hoodie in red and black and tucked a red and white baker's twine into the top, adding a couple of glue dots so the loops would stay. The pocket is popped up on dimensionals.

Next, I pulled out a couple of old Spellbinders die cut sets to die cut the numbers and letters for the hoodie.

Finally, I used the Divinity Design graduation cap, cutting it out of red glitter paper that my mom gave me, and the diploma is die cut using an older Impression Obsession die cut. I then used the dot from the graduation cap and added a yellow seal to the Impression Obsession diploma.

It is great when I can pull out the selection of die cuts to create a personalized card. My son will graduate from Ball State in May, and I incorporated items to personalize this for my mom to give to my son.

Fathers Day

 

F4A777 - Circles

I need to get a few Father's Day cards made and grabbed this old Stampin Up image for a card. I die cut it in a circle and quickly colored it with copics. I added some ribbon and popped the sentiment up on dimensionals.

Scrappy Birthday

 

WT1035 - Wavy-use a crimper or corrugated cardboard

For my card, I pulled out my brown scrap drawer and created the layout. I then die cut the heart, added the sentiment and added this really pretty gem to the corner. The lace strips on the left were shaped with my crimper after die cutting them.

A few of the layers are distressed and the black heart and the sentiment banner both have white highlights.

Feather Dress

 

FS935 - This week's very talented crafter is clee1953 aka Cheryl. I found this amazing vintage INSPIRATION.

I love how Cheryl created the fun dress and used that for my inspiration.

I created a red dress by first cutting the dress form out of black then die cutting the top of the dress out of red foam glitter.

Next, I cut the feathers down and hot glued them under the top of the dress. I then finished the dress with a red ribbon.

I layered it on a foiled heart card stock and added a heat embossed sentiment on a black die cut heart that was popped up on dimensionals.

Finally, I finished the dress with a few red pearls to create the necklace.
