Delightful Digis

The DT and I are back once more after a short respite at My Sheri Crafts! :-)  We're welcoming this year with a digital stamp image challenge.  Since I had to print out the image, I used Georgia Paper cardstock instead of my usual staple, which is Gina K paper.  The designer papers are from Prima and I used a Martha Stewart Butterfly punch as an accent piece. The oval frame is from Spellbinders and I added some chalk for the background, as well as faux pearls using my Viva Decor Pearl Pen.  The paper lace is from K&Co.

Here's the link to the digi stamp: http://freevintagedigistamps.blogspot.com/2012/04/free-vintage-digital-stamp-children.html .  I love the delightful image of the children playing by the riverbank.  I got the card sketch from Google.  I used my phone when I searched it and sadly, I could not find my resource anymore.  Ssssshhhh!  Don't tell, but this card is for my hubby (a.k.a, my BFF) for Valentine's.

Nutcracker Sweet Printer's Tray

We're celebrating a Funky Christmas at My Sheri Crafts! I altered a printer's tray from Michael's with paper from Graphic 45's Nutcracker Sweet collection,--featuring teal, purple, pink, peach and yellow mixed with traditional Christmas colors.  The main images were covered with Glossy Accents, outlined with Stickles and pop-dotted.   This project makes me smile everytime I look at it. :-)

Happy Thanksgiving from My Sheri Crafts!

I made a card for our Fall/Thanksgiving celebration at My Sheri Crafts.  I colored using Copic markers a funny stamp from the clearance bin at Hobby Lobby.  The designer paper is from Basic Grey and Prima.  I added feathers, a Prima flower, white enamel accents and a border punched with a Martha Stewart punch to finish off the card.


The Design Team at My Sheri Crafts would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

A Little Comfort

Sarah from our DT gave us the challenge to make a sympathy/thinking of you card to give comfort to the receiver.  I had this paper pack from Bo Bunny that I have not even touched yet, and have been as usual, just hoarding. :-D 

The card measures 6x6" and the font is from the Sentimentals Cricut Cartridge, cut at 2".  I added some pearls and flowers from Prima and crystal flowers from Dress It Up to finish off this simple card.

A Night Owl's First Hallowe'en

I was very excited when Charlotte gave us a challenge featuring "The Night".  Well it's about time I make a layout featuring the baby's first Halloween.  I fussy cut the pumpkins and owl and raven strips from a Halloween-themed paper from Reminisce.  I made paper lace using a bat border punch from EK Success.  The cobweb paper is from DCWV.   The font was cut using the Happy Haunting Cricut cartridge and measures 1 1/2".  The moon is from October 31st, cut at 2".  I traced the edges of the letters and the pumpkins with Stickles to make this simple layout pop.
 The night owl was asleep all throughout the photo session. :-)

Stitch Time!

Sue from our DT at My Sheri Crafts challenged us with a sewing inspired project this time around.  I made three "feminized Tim Holtz" tags using Tim Holtz stamps and Sizzix dies.  The designer paper is from Melody Ross for GCD Studios.  I used the resist technique for the background, with the exception of the third tag.  The lace is from Charlotte, the ribbon is from The Paper Studio and the trim is from a Cricut Message Board swap.  I added Baker's twine and crystals from Recollections for added bling.

Happy Native American Day!

Native American Day is celebrated every fourth Friday of September.  I made a fall-themed card for my DT project for My Sheri Crafts.  The stamp was bought off e-bay.  I colored the image using Copic markers.  The designer paper is from Basic Grey and Prima.  I added frames cut using Spellbinders and a border using a Martha Stewart punch.  I added some feathers, a Prima flower, stickers from Webster's Pages and white Enamel Accents for my embellishments.
