Slip & Slide (Practical Scrappers DT Project)




























TGIF Everyone!!! I hope you all are having a great day..Well, it is time for me to share my Practical Scrappers design team project with you.. For this weeks challenge they are wanting you to dig into those items you have stashed away and pull out the ones that are over a year old (it can be a tool or product)to use when creating your project. he Grand Prize Winner will get their choice of three digis from Digi Doodle ! So I hope you will stop by and join in on all the fun..

To create my project, I used the wave border and shark embossed card stock stickers that I have had for a little over a year.. I also used a pair of decorative scissors that have been in my stash for a number of years to create the shark bites out of my pictures..The title was created with the cart Cuttin' Up... I created a splat stencil with the Everyday Paper Dolls cart to use on the background.. To create the background I placed the stencil over a white piece of card stock and sprayed it with blue alcohol ink & sea foam Shimmerz.. I embossed the water splats from the Everyday Paper Dolls cart with my D'vine Swirls Cuttlebug embossing folder and heat embossed them as while.. To finish this page, I did some inking and used a white & black marker..

Winter Wonderland (Spinning Card)


Hey everyone, I was in the Christmas spirit today and this is what I created.. I also found a spinner card tutorial on YouTube and I had to give it a try..

To create this card, I tore some white card stock and embossed it with my Snowflakes Cuttlebug embossing folder.. The reindeer and trees were cut from the Create a Critter cart.. The trees were embossed with a Swiss Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder.. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment in the corner.. The sentiment inside the spinner channel was hand written.. To finish this card I did some inking, added some brads, pop dots, and 2 pennies.. Be sure to check out the video to see my card in action..
