The Leaf Studio: Cardabilities

One of a Kind Card

Happy Saturday!

I used supplies from the Transformations Collection (Club Scrap):

patterned paper

Embellishment Cutapart

stamps from Transformations Art Nouveau stamp set

coconut shell button

fiber and brads from the Embellishment Pack

Others:

paper doily

Color Shine (Heidi Swapp)

VersaMagic and Memento ink pads

Decorate to Celebrate DT Challenge #103: 4th of July Projects

Hello, Crafty Friends!

It's time for Decorate to Celebrate today! You can create anything 3-D.

You may link up your projects below before 11:59pm (EST) on Tuesday, July 7th to be eligible for YOUR chance to win a prize from (Rhonda)

I made some projects for 4th of July...

Believe it or not, I didn't really have 4th of July-ish patterned papers in my paper stash (that I hoard...er, I mean..."collect"...), so I had to look for free printables!
Here's where I found the papers I used: Hallmark.

Centerpiece:

I wrapped a upcycled plastic container with 2 different papers, filled with grass filler (green and yellow...'cause I grew up in Brazil!) and arranged stamped pinwheels (CTMH) and altered printables (taped on sticks).

Challenge:
DL.Art June Linky Challenge: Anything Goes

And the card (inspired by the latest Cardabilities Sketch). I used my Cricut (Art Philosophy) to cut all pieces, added some doodling, glitter and star stickers.

Challenges:

1. Cardabilities Sketch #125

2. Dies R Us #27: Flags and/or Banners

3. Word Art Wed #189: Anything Goes/Family Friendly

Thanks for stopping by!

Cardabilities Design Team Reveal #121: Butterfly Mother's Day Card

(I have 2 posts today...if you're looking for my DT project for Decorate to Celebrate, please click HERE)

Hello, crafty friends!

It's the 15th...and you know it! It's Cardabilities Design Team Reveal Day!

Here's the gorgeous sketch by Karan:

And here's my card:

I simply layered 2 patterned papers for the base. I cut out some leaves (Spellbinders), using solid green and patterned paper, and layered them with some flowers. I added 3 pearls to the blue flower's center.

I cut a butterfly (Artiste Cricut Collection- CTMH), both shape (patterned paper) and the scroll (white cardstock). I inked the scroll butterfly, added glitter to the wings, adhered (by the body only) on the shape cut, and adhered on the card.

Then, I stamped sentiment on Colonial White cardstock, cut the banner, inked the edges and adhered on butterfly with foam tape. Finally, I added more pearls to the top right side of card.

1. Word Art Wed #179: AG Family Friendly Challenge

Cardabilities Design Team Reveal #119: Little Girl with a Ballon Birthday Card

Hello,

I'm so excited! This is my first project for Cardabilites!

Today is the Design Team Reveal for Sketch #119!

Here's the Sketch:

And here's my card:

This girl image is so cute, I decided to make a shaped card...and it had to be...a ballon, of course! =)
I usually use soft colors, but this card will be for my niece, so I decided to add some bright paper to it...

I cut the ballon shapes out of cardstock (with ScanNCut) for the card base, and patterned paper for the top.
Don't know if you can see it (click on photo above to enlarge it), but I used my Cricut to cut overlays and use them as stencils for the background (metallic pink diamonds and the 3 glittered butterflies).

Our Sponsor for this sketch is The Stamping Boutique and the prize is 2 digit stamps:
