Love You Mom

Hi All! I didn't get a picture taken of the card I was going to post for a different weekend freebie ,but I do have some of this cute new stamp I've been working with. The weekend freebie digital stamp from www.valsdigitaldesigns.com Is Kididdles In Stitches Flower 1. I absolutely love how my card turned out! I love soft colors so I colored the image with prisma pencils in soft green, blue, pink and yellow. To print the image on my paper I used Microsoft word I inserted the first flower and then moved it over and part way down the page resized it and then copy and pasted twice so they were side by side. I then printed it off and cut it to fit the card leaving room at the top for my sentiment. The Love You Mom I created on my computer and also  printed that off , I then cut them out and glued to a scrap of the gingham paper and the cut them out leaving a border of gingham around each word. The white card stock is from Staple's and the gingham is from Nitwit Collections. If you download the weekend freebie and posted what you made on your blog  please post a comment in the comment box below with you blog address, I would love to see what you have made!   Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!  Val

Dream Create Imagine

Hi All! For my card today I used our Kididdles In Stitches Flower 1 digital stamp from www.valsdigitaldesigns.com The base of the card is Soft Suede cardstock from Stampin'Up, the pattern paper was in my stash which I have distressed the edges of. I colored the image with prisma pencils, cut it out and glued to the front of my card. The words I typed on my computer and then printed off on card stock cut them out, distressed the edges and also sponged around them with soft suede ink. I've been quite busy lately in my studio making cards and putting together mini albums and decided it's time to make some videos of what I've been up to. It's been a long time since I made a video so my Grandson is coming to help me set things up. My husband has already hung the tripod from the ceiling over my desk  and bought me a new camera so I am very excited to get started! Thanks for stopping by! Val

Bella Tag For Easter

Hi All! Todays project I made using the weekend freebie from www.valsdigitaldesigns.com Bella Bunny. I colored the image with my Prisma Pencils and then fussy cut her out. The tag shape I made myself and followed a tutorial on xannero1 you tube channel. The flowers and leaves I also made my own template for which I printed out in several sizes then fussy cut them out and use them to trace around on my pattern paper, then Icut them out again shaped them and layered them together. Sounds like a lot of steps but once you get the first shapes for tracing around it doesn't take long at all The patterned paper is from Nitwit Collections, ribbon and pearls are from Stampin Up. I know Bella Bunny was last Weekends Freebie, but she has been so popular  I decided to keep her as the freebie until next Friday so if you haven't already, stop by the store and download her for free now!

Blue Rose Pocket Tag

Hi All! For todays project I decided to use the colors for this weeks color challenge at Splitcoast stampers CC564 The colors are pacific point, cucumber crush and Sahara sand. The digital stamp I used the weekend freebie from  www.valsdigitaldesigns.com  Jean Pocket With Rose.  I colored the pocket and rose with my Prisma pencils and then cut the pocket out. I then took a piece of Sahara sand cardstock and cut it into the shape of a tag, I glued the pocket to the bottom of the tag and trimmed the bottom to match the shape of the pocket and added some pearls to the corners of the pocket. I then cut a tag out of pacific point and Sahara sand paper, punched the corners with the new corner punch from Stampin'Up and added the Get Well sentiment also from Stampin'up and placed the tag in the pocket. I punched a hole in the top of the base tag and  put some ribbon from my stash through the hole and tied a bow. I am really having fun with the pocket digital stamps from the store and I hope you will stop by and check them out. Until February 29th everything in the store is 50% off all you have to do is when you check out type in the coupon code nysale2016 in the coupon box and the discount will be applied. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend! Val
