Trick or Treat

I wanted to quickly share this card for the coloring contest over at thedailymarker.com which is almost over. 



I originally sent this in for a couple magazine publications but alas,  it was not picked.   You never know what they're looking for and it's a roll of the dice.   But,  it's great when your project IS picked! 

This card features stamps from studiol2e.com,  die cuts made with my Brother scan n cut,  Marvy Uchida coloring and a Ranger Ink background. 

Thanks for popping in! 


I'd Rather Be Hunting

Hey ya'll.... I'm from the South so I can say, "ya'll" right?  You know what else is a thing in the South?  Hunting.  And, I've got  the perfect paper collection to celebrate the hunter in your life  -  The Great Outdoors Hunting Paper Crafting Kit from Paper House Productions.





This awesome collections is not only great for scrapbooking and chronicling those life adventures, but make the perfect cards for your avid sportsman or sportswoman.  For this card, I thought it would be fun to fussy cut a bunch of tiny images from a 12x12 inch sheet in the collection, and pop them up for dimension.  Hunting is pretty much a masculine sport, but come on.... aren't they just the cutest?  I'm not a hunter, but I just love those itty bitty camo clothes!







This double sided sheet called "Go Wild" has a solid camouflage design on the flip side and is included in this collection.  It also serves as the backdrop for my card.











This 12x12 inch sheet of stickers below, and pack of 3D stickers are also included in this paper crafting kit.  I love that Paper House Productions give you so much "bang" for your "buck".  Oh my gosh, I am in such a punny mood today.  But it's true!  All this for under $10.00!  Best part?  Shipping is super reasonable.  That is a key factor that determines where I will shop.  I can promise you this; you will be pleased not only with the shipping prices, but the speed in which your package arrives.

Ghostly Halloween Card

Hello cardmakers!  Today, I'm featuring this fun Ghostly Halloween card for Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.  I have a few tips for you, on this ink blended scenic card.  Grab your favorite beverage and let's hang out for a few minutes!


(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)





First, I blended some Ranger Ink onto my Strathmore watercolor paper, using distress oxides in Wilted Violet and Spiced Marmalade and Festive Berries distress ink in the center.  All my blending was done using the Ranger Ink blending tool.


Next, I did some offset stamping, using my Misti stamp positioner, using the Ghost Vamp stamps.  They're too cute to be creepy, don't you think?  I stamped them with black dye ink directly onto my colored background, then grabbed a water brush and diluted some of the color to look more ghostly.

*Please note, when using a water brush to dilute, blot with a paper towel but please DO NOT continue blotting with the same wet spot on your paper towel, or you will end up splotching your background.  Trust me on this!  When blotting, make sure each time is a dry spot on your paper towel.  You can thank me later!






To color my ghost eyes and create stars on my background, I used a white gel pen.  You can add sparkle to your sky using glitter and glue dots as well.

I created a hill top with black cardstock and stamped my Haunted House On The Hill.  I blotted the color in my windows to dilute again with a water brush, then, once dry, colored in with a yellow white gel pen.







Lastly, I masked my Muggle sentiment so I could stack my wording and stamped and then outlined my sentiment with a white gel pen.  I also masked the Deathly Hallows symbol from the Always stamp as well.  Many of the stamps that I used today are from the new release.





You'll find more on the stamps that I used today along with special offers and our Halloween Challenge over on the Crackerbox & Suzy Blog today so be sure and stop in.  
Thanks for stopping by!  Terri

Relaxing On The Lake With Paper House Productions Lake Life Collection

I'm featuring another project today, for Paper House Productions, and using the Lake Life collection for the first time.  Wow, I love this collection and the versatility of these papers.  Sure, they're made for scrapbooking.  However, as an avid cardmaker, I know I can open the kit, site unseen and there will be so many wonderful papers that I can use for cardmaking.



(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)






This kit also comes with a 12x12 inch sheet of cardstock stickers as well as a pack of 3D stickers, both of which are used on my project.





Are you following me on social media?  I recently shared on Instagram, a sneak peek of making that boardwalk/dock by paper piecing trimmed strips of woodgrain papers onto the burlap paper, both included in this kit.  Make sure you're following me, so you get those special details that I sometimes share outside my blog post.  




I added a vellum overlay on top of the water scene and I also created a "throw blanket" for my chair.  It's really easy to do.  I simply trimmed some gingham ribbon and fringed my edges.  This is cut into 2 pieces.  One appears to hang off my chair and has one end tucked behind my chair.   The other piece is tucked behind the backside of the chair, then folded over the arm and, if you zoom in, is folded again so that it appears to be draped over the arm of the chair.  I used snips of extreme tape from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L to achieve the double fold, and my EZ Grand Runner for the rest.  Most of my sticker elements are popped up on foam circles for added dimension.




Paper House Productions - StickyPix - Faux Enamel Stickers - Girl Power with Foil Accents


I usually have a cup of coffee in my hand wherever I go.  That would include, chair side at the lake!  So, I included one of the faux enamel stickers from the Girl Power planner stickers collection.  Even though they're planner themed, these are by no means itty bitty.  They are a nice size for decorative elements on all your paper crafting.





That wraps it up for today's card.  Thanks for stopping in and I'll see you next time!  Feel free to shop any of the convenient affiliate links scattered throughout this post.  Have a great day....Terri

Camping With Paper House Productions

When I saw this collection from Paper House Productions, I knew I had to have it.  Growing up in upstate New York, our family and extended family spent many summers camping.  I have such wonderful memories of my childhood, camping at Fair Haven located on the southern shores of Lake Ontario.  Most evenings were spent roasting marshmallows by the campfire, sleeping in tents while the grandparents slept in a camper just like this one, then waking up to the smell and sound of bacon sizzling in a cast iron skillet.  

The Great Outdoors Camping Paper Kit, from Paper House Productions, reminds me of happiness, warmth and love.  Truly!


(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)






There are so many fun, double sided pattern papers in this collection, perfect for scrapbooking your favorite memories, but also wonderful for papercrafting and sending cards to those you love who share those special moments with you.





This set comes with a sheet of 12x12 inch stickers but also comes with a sheet that includes 3D stickers as well, such as the camper in my photo.  




I embellished my scene a little bit if you look closely.  I hand cut a mountain shape from a sheet of scrap paper that I had in my stash from another PHP collection, then used my Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L EZ Grand Runner with Repositionable tape and swiped the tops of my mountains, applied white embossing powder and heated with my craft heat tool.  I also colored some 3L adhesive dots with glitter and heated those as well, for my sky scene.  Acrylic paint was dropped on my sky as well to jazz up my night sky paper included in this collection.




I created a border just below my camping scene that includes this leafy washi tape from the PHP Birch and leaf washi tape collection, along with woodgrain paper included in the kit.





I'm happy to say, and as some of my crafty friends will testify, shipping is super reasonable and super quick.  I'm always so happy when I refer friends to this wonderful company to shop and they report back and tell me how quick their order arrived.  Always a key factor when I chose where to spend my money and I know most of you would say the same thing.




I have a couple more projects coming out soon featuring the various collections from The Great Outdoors.  I hope you will take a few minutes and browse the shop over at Paper House Productions.  If you haven't heard, they just released newly licensed planner products featuring Harry Potter.  You can check that out here.  Thanks for stopping in today!
