Morgan's ArtWorld Challenge

 I hope this fine Friday finds everyone doing well

and looking forward to a nice weekend!

We have a new challenge at

Morgan's ArtWorld

and I'm excited to share my DT project!

I altered a frame using

"Ballerina 3".

I colored the image with Colourblend Pencils and fussy cut.

The frame was painted with acrylic paint.

Squares were die cut out of silver mirror card and designer paper.

The quote was found online and computer generated.

I added a paper doily behind the ballerina.

The florals are paper tole from Paper wishes.

I added gems to the flower centers and sheer

ribbon finishes off the overall design.

I hope you'll join us for this challenge.

We love to see what you create!

November Inspiration at Cute As A Button

Hello all!

It's my turn to provide a little inspiration on the

Cute As A Button Inspiration Showcase Blog!

I'v been in a holiday mode so

 I created a Christmas card

using "Poinsettia Portrait".

I colored the image with pencils and fussy cut.

Next I pulled out some card stocks

and a paper doily that coordinate with the colors I used.

I decided on an easel card style.

I created the base by taking an 8.5 x 11 inch

piece of red card stock and cut to 5.5 x 11 inches.

Next I scored along the 11 inch side at 2.75 and 5.5 inches

and folded along the score lines.

I cut a coordinating piece of printed card stock to 5.25 x 5.25 inches.

I cut a piece of white card stock to 4.25 x 4.25 inches

and cut a piece of red card stock to 1 x 5.25 inches.

These pieces were layered 

and adhered to the bottom portion of the card base,

leaving a 1/8 inch border all around.

Next, I added a 5.25 x 5.25 piece of white card stock

to the inside of the card.

I cut a strip of white card stock and printed card stock,

layered and adhere with foam tape.

The "Merry Christmas" sentiment was

die cut with Crafter's Companion dies.

I added the red doily to the center of the white square.

The image was adhered to the doily with foam tape.

The doily was added to the front to complete!

Be sure and check out this stamp along with

 the others available at

Snowmen Trio from Imagine That

Hey there!

I hope everyone here in the U.S. had a great

Thanksgiving yesterday. I certainly did!

Spending time with family and friends is so special.

Today, instead of being out shopping with all

the crowds, I'm sitting in the craft room.

So I thought I'd take a few minutes and share this

holiday twisted easel card I put together

using "Snowmen Trio" from Imagine That Digistamp.

If you like snowman images you'll love this set!

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens

and fussy cut. I added some glitter glue to the snowmen fora little more sparkle.

The background was created with  a Sheena Festive Embossing Folder,

called "Winter Trees", from Crafter's Companion.

I took the embossed image and rubbed various inks over it for some color.

The image was adhered to the back ground with foam squares.

I punched a few snowflakes and added.

Inside I created a border with a Fiskars punch.

The sentiment is from the snowmen set and die cut with Sizzix Framelits dies.

The tree an snowflakes are buttons I found at Walmart.

Until next time,

have a great weekend!
