Be Inspired #84 Photo Challenge


Boy am I excited.  This is my first Challenge as a Design Team Member of Cuttlebug Challenge.  It is such a honor to asked to join this fabulous team.  The challenge for this week is Photo's.  I first thought of Father's Day coming up so I decided a wonderful gift for my Dad was in order.  He absolutely loves his Grand kids so I decided to make him a Post-it note holder. 
I used an acrylic photo frame 5X7 for the base.  The leather looking paper is a paper sack that I cut to 5X7 and ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Hounds tooth folder.  The I used umber Versa Color ink pad and ran it over the top.  I used Stretch Your Imagination cartridge and cut out the wonderful photo book.  The whole in the middle wasn't quite big enough so I used small scissors and cut up both side about 1/2 "  then folded it back and taped it.  I placed the picture behind the photo book and taped them to the "leather paper".  I added a piece of ribbon across the middle.  I then placed the page in the photo frame and taped the top so that it was secured.  I used Tear-ific tape to tape the post-it notes to the frame.  I can hardly wait to give it to my pops....

Wow!  Hello everyone.  I know it's been a very long time since I posted.  I've had to deal with some personal issues and couldn't dedicate my time to crafting.  But, I'm back!  I have been doing some really fun activities and having lots of fun with Betty from Bettybrett.blogspot.com .  She has amazing Friday try days. Her crops are the greatest.  I'm looking forward to the November one. It is called Candy Cane Lane. I'm even going to teach a class of my own in paper piecing. This class will be the 23rd of November.  More details on this to follow.    I've so missed crafting and I've missed my followers.  I always said " I love my computer because my friends are in it".  LOL  I will be posting pictures soon.  I just need to get this computer set up to do it with. Huggles,  Wanda

Cuttlebug Challenge #48

Cuttlebug Challenge is having a month long celebration for their 1 year anniversay. This weeks challenge was a gift bag and card. For my gift bag I used a clipart from Daisie Company. I burnt around the edges to make it look old. (Little hint here. Don't do it in your kitchen even though there is water so if it get out of hand. It does set off the fire alarm. OOPS LOL ) Then I made the tag with my favorite folder for this project the Houndstooth. Tied it on with my twine to keep it in the same theme. My card I used Dustin Pike Digi-art Colored it with Bic pens and Gel pens. The inside of the card I used Clip art from Daisie Company and used the houndstooth folder again to distress the scroll.

So make sure you hop all the way through, leave comments on every blog, I decided to cover all the bases. So I made this table tent that is for Thanksgiving and on the back I'm writing what I am thankful for on each family members place card.  If you would like to get the directions on how to make the table tent check out Betty Bee's Buzz .  Rosemary did a fantastic job on this.  I used Tim the Turkey from Digital Delights and colored him with Bic markers.  The paper is from K & company and Cardstock.  ...
