HIMCR #204 - Love is in the Air



HIMCR #204 - LOVE is in the Air!

The sponsor is The Paper Shelter!


The giveaway is a $15 gift certificate to The Paper Shelter!
 
Yes, love IS in the air my longtime feller and I will be getting hitched this summer and I thought that this image would be prefect for the cover of our mini wedding album. I made a card this time but it just may be used again for our album.
 
 
 
I definitely need someone to push my reset button, I just can't seem to get away from using blue, blue and more blue. All of my papers are scraps again but that darned pile doesn't seem to be getting smaller yet.
 
I printed and colored the image, backed it with a piece of light blue trimmed with the wavy blade for my Your Story trimmer. The card base was already scored and folded, just the right size for this project. I added a blue butterfly from my stash, a few sequins and Imaginisce jewels, a piece of twine, chomped my corners and the card is ready for whatever I decided to use it for.

HIMCR #178 - Super Scraps Saturday - Shaker Card


HIMCR #178 - Super Scraps Saturday!

Time to get out those scraps!


The sponsor is The Paper Shelter!



The giveaway is a $20 gift certificate to The Paper Shelter!
 

 
Recipe:
Image from The Paper Shelter, I used the colored image.
All of my scraps are from DCVW Christmas stacks
Ribbon
Clear acetate
Chipboard, mine was from the back of a pad of paper.
Sequins
 
Print image, mine is 4" x 4", I cut the frame to fit with my Cricut and Fancy Frames Cartridge. I also cut 4 of the frame from chipboard for the shaker element (rather than using layers of foam tape), I glued one chipboard frame on top of the other, glued the clear acetate window then the red glitter frame.
Assemble the card and layers then place the image on the card face and adhere it using a good adhesive. Place some sequins on top of the image and adhere the layered frame on top of the printed image.
I stamped the, "Happy Holiday's" using a stamp from my stash onto white cardstock then I layered it with a piece of the red glitter paper.
