Fun Friday with Bonnie and Chilly Bunny!

I hope you have had a great holiday season! 
Maybe some you will have some extra time to craft during your holidays!

Today i would like to share this simple card with you using Chilly Bunny
As you can see i added some stripes to this scarf.  You can pencil off some lines and add your coloring. I like to cut out my images and this image comes with some snowflakes in the background.  i just cut them out as circles or you can hand punch them.

Sami Stamps image - Chilly Bunny available here in the Blog shop.

Frosty Fun Friday!

Hello!  Rae Ann here with your dose of Friday Fun inspiration!  Can you believe it is the Friday before Christmas?!  I hope you have your shopping and wrapping done and can put your feet up and enjoy a glass of egg nog (or whatever drink brings you the most joy).  And with Christmas right around the corner, you know what that means!  Soon it will be New Year's Day and we will suffer through several weeks of writing the wrong year on everything. =P  Before that happens, Frosty Stars and I are here to wish you a Happy New Year.


I colored Frosty Stars with Copic markers and used a technique I recently learned to make his hat band, buttons and stars look like gold glitter or sequins.  A little embossing for some texture, some ribbon and trim (the black trim below the ribbon doesn't really show at all in the picture), and a simple stamped sentiment and this card was done!

This month's challenge is white on white!  Why not put a project together and play along?  Just remember to use a Sami Stamps image to be eligible for prizes.

I hope you have a joyous holiday season full of the very best life has to offer.  Until next time!

Fun Friday with Bonnie - 3D Paper Piece Card!

No time for coloring an image?  What about paper piecing?  
Want to make your card "the gift"??

The images on this card work well for paper piecing. 
In fact, i looked at the shop examples and the blog to see that other crafters have thought the same thing about this image called, Curious Gifts!

I like to use digital paper so that i can change the scale of the paper.
In some cases, i like to digitally paper piece too, because it cuts down on paper waste. 
Here is my paper pieced version of Curious Gifts!  The kitties were colored with Copics.
You can find more details on my blog here.
You can make your card a "gift that can be framed" by making it 3D.

To create a 3D image...
All you do is print the image off 3-4 times and layer it with foam tape!
Find a shadow box and frame your card!

Sami Stamps Curious Gifts can be found here in Sami Stamps Etsy Store
or
you can email Sami and request this image for $4
Here are some other cards using Curious Gifts image to inspire you!

Hi everyone! It is good to be back! I want to give a big thank you for our DT leader Grandma Bonnie and the rest of the design team for stepping it up and helping me out while I was away. I had a little special someone to welcome into my family and have been a little busy. =) I would like to ask everyone to please have patience with me over the next few months while I am trying to figure out how to balance my normal life along with my sweet baby girl. 


 The DT has put together some adorable inspiration for you today!
