Make it Monday Challenge

I made this card for the challenge at Make It Monday Challenge #234 I used PTI Dies from Feather Finery and Fancy Flakes and the sentiment is from Believe stamp set. I used a THoltz embossing folder. Inked up one side before I ran it through the BigShot. I had to add some reinker to make it show up properly. Splattered with a pearl paint. Added a bit of PTI twine and glitter washi tape.

Shabby White Owl Tree

Today I'm posting something different. It's the tree I decorated for my family room. My inspiration came from shabbyartboutique.com So many cute things. OMG!! What a talented lady! The wrapping paper on the gift beside the doll is from her collections as well. I spray painted the snowflakes and icicles that I bought at the $store. So cheap and they do the trick. I printed the owls on matte cardstock and then mounted them on cereal box cardboard then propped them into the tree. So cute! I'm showing off this little bit of Shabbyliciousness over at the Shabbylicious Features

Coverplate Watercolor

Here's my attempt at watercoloring with a cover plate mask!! This one almost didn't make the blog! I just wasn't altogether pleased. Once I added a bit of glitter, sequins and the sentiment it was ok. I used the PTI Circle Coverplate to make my Christmas tree. I had to cut the circles into rows in order to set them in a triangle. I used a bit of Wink of Stella to help the sad watercoloring. Sentiment is an old SU stamp. To see the challenge details check it HERE

Care Card

After interior painting half of my home I was itching to do a bit of papercrafting before the warm sunny days of yardwork started. We're having a balmy +20 celsius day today and no snow. 
 I'm starting out with a card for the challenge over at Papertrey Ink Make it Monday #207 Double Partial Die Cutting. I used the heart die from Polka Dot Parade #11 and MatStack 2 Die. Stamping is Hello Sunshine (rays behind the heart and sentiment). Raspberry Fizz paper (almost looks neon) and gold embossing.
