Beach Babe Dottie

Hello!  I'm back with another make and share.  Today's card features the Beach Babe Dottie from Bugaboo Stamps.  

This card is a Slimline card, my first ever!  I usually make A2 and Square cards but received a Slimline Die Set recently and wanted to try my hand at it.  This card measures 8.5"x 3.5" and fits into a Business Size (#10) envelope perfectly.  

I colored her with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, added some Gelly Roll Sparkle Pen highlights to her hair, added some Stickles Clear Glitter Glue to her Earrings and Sandals (can't really see the glittery effect in this picture) and added sequins to polish off the project.  

This is a top (tent) folding card; I cut 2 panels for the base and glued them together at the top.  I hope you like her, Ms. Dottie celebrated the 4th of July in Style!

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Creative Knockouts - Celebrations

Hello all, I do hope your Christmas was Awesome and Your Boxing Day (today) is even better!  After a long Hiatus, I'm back on the Design Team for Creative Knockouts and today begins a new challenge.

Our sponsor for this round is Kelly Schelske, our Fearless Leader and a Close to My Heart Independent Consultant.  Kelly is awarding the winner of this weeks' challenge a CTMH Stamp Set.

I chose to use a digital image from Power Poppy by Marcella Hawley titled Candy Cane Classic for my design team project.  The theme for this round is Celebrations and I thought this Candy Cane card was perfect for a Christmas Celebration.  I have since posted this card to a dear friend in Georgia, I hope she received in good order and liked.

This card measures 5" square and I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers.  I added clear gems and Wink of Stella for the glitter and gleam, popped up the focal image with foam pads and used some designer papers I had in my stash.  The colors are very vibrant in person, the photo just doesn't do it justice.

Please join us at Creative Knockouts with your project reflecting the Theme of Celebrations. Best of luck to you in the draw and until next time, Happy Crafting!
