Daydream Believer

Hello everyone!! I am here on this wonderful Friday with a project that uses "Daydream Believer" of the  SWALK stamp Line.  I hope you enjoy it.

My card today is a gate-fold card.  I used the Ultimate Tool for all my scoring. The manual for the Ultimate Tool shows you how to make several different cards and how to use the tool for scoring and other things.  My card measures 6x6.  You start with a piece of card stock at 6x12.  Score it at 3 in and again at 9 in.  Fold in the score lines.  Decorate as you please.....    My image is stamped onto ultra smooth premium white card stock and colored in using the Spectrum Noir markers.  I used a die to cut out my image and for the mat behind her.  This is one of my favorite Swalk images.   I added some ribbon and a bow with a jeweled brad.

Belle Of The Ball

Hello everyone!! I am here on this wonderful Friday with a project that uses "Belle of The Ball" of the new SWALK stamp Line.  I hope you enjoy it.

 This is just a simple 6 x 6 card.  I used a few dies to cut out the Belle of the Ball colored image and also to cut out embellishments for the corners.  My image is colored using the Spectrum Noir markers.  The pearls in the corners are also colored using the Spectrum Noir markers.  I really love this little trick.  It is just so nice to be able to color match bling, pearls and ribbon to my projects just by coloring them with my Spectrum Noir markers!!  I added a strip of lace to give it a little bit more of a girly look.  Isn't she lovely......

Crafter's Companion February Challenge

Hi Everyone!!!   Today is the 1st of March and that means it is time for a NEW challenge on the Crafter's Companion Challenge Blog.  This month our challenge to you is to make a project using a Crafter's Companion Stamp and the theme "Going Green".  We want you to create a project with the color green in mind, it can be a card, layout, altered item, etc.  Just make sure you use a Crafter's Companion stamp in order to have a chance to win an awesome PRIZE.


The prize for this challenge is 3 packages of the new Spectrum Noir Alcohol Ink 6 Marker Sets (your choice of color groupings) and a Spectrum Noir 36 Pen Zipper Bag to store your new markers.  These are some really awesome markers and they are very affordable.  Give them a try and you will like them as much as I do.

Here is my creation for the March Challenge of Going Green:

 I used the Swalk Daydream Believer stamp set.  I didn't want to use a dark or a really bright green color, so I went for a very soft green color.  I also used my blender pen to make the lightest color very light.  I used the tip to tip method.  I also used my  markers to color my white ribbon the same green color that I used on my image and to color the white pearls in the 4 corners. I used a cloud template and created some clouds.  My sentiment is stamped onto card stock and I cut it to look like a banner.  I created it to look a bit wavy when I attached it to my card.

Here's a picture of my card flat so you can see the wavy banner:

I added a bunch of pearls to finish off my card.

 So get out those Crafter's Companion stamps and start creating for this challenge and you could win the awesome prize mentioned above.

Make sure you go to the Crafter's Companion USA Challenge Blog to get all the details of how to enter, etc....
