Card Made with the Treatbag????

Hello and Happy Wednesday everyone! It's the middle of the week sooo I hope it's going great for you!
Here is another  Mini Monsters Card.... This was made using the "Treatbag" on page 76 in the booklet.... Who would have thought using the treatbag for a card? Not me anyway! LOL So I hope you like it! :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

All the Cardstock is Stampin' Up and the
Designer Paper is KI Memories....
This is a 5 1/5 x 4 1/4 card and the
Monster was cut @ 5 1/4" on the Card Feature...
I used my Design Studio to cut what I wanted out... For example: Layer 1 has the wings and mouth but it also cuts out the handles for the treatbag..... well Since I wasn't making a treat bag I used my Design Studio for the "Hide Contour" Feature so I hide the bag handles and only cut out the parts that I needed..... They were cut out (2x's each) :o)  I also used the Layer 1 Shift key for the Horns (2x's).... Then I used Layer 2 for the teeth and white eyes cut out (2x's).... I decided to use my stickles for the blacks of his eyes.... and I like how that turned out... :o)

So here is a side view of my card.... As you can see I did the inside with White Cardstock and inked the edges so someone can write on the inside of the card... I also used my Martha Stewart Bat punch for the bottom of the card to kind of match the wings the monster seems to have.... Everything was inked and I used Dimensionals to pop up all the layers... Thanks for taking a peek, let me know what you think! Have a great day and I'll be back tomorrow with (1) more Card from the Mini Monster Cartridge!

Hello and Happy Sunday Everyone! I've been making some really cute Halloween cards this week! I LOVE my Mini Monsters Cartridge.... and this week, you will see cards made with that! I decided to try out the Card Feature on this cartridge.... Soooo all the cards I made this week will have been made with that Feature... Enjoy!

(Click Photo to Enlarge)

Everything was made using Stampin' Up Supplies! :o)
This card is a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 size.... I used the Martha Stewart Drippy Goo Punch and inked around the edges... the Monster was cut @ 4" on the Card Feature and I used the Base Shadow, Reg. Feature, Layer 1 (2x's) and Layer 1 Shift (2x's), Layer 2 and Layer 2 Shift  (2x's), used dimensionals and inked EVERYTHING! Had to use the Googlie eyes on this guy! :o)

Here is a side view, so you can see the popping going on! As I've stated before, I don't normally do the inside of the cards when they are to be sold to someone... but because I used very dark colors I chose to add the white cardstock and ink it, so whoever gets these can write a little something on the inside with nooo problems..... Thanks for taking a peek, let me know what you think! Have a great day and I'll see you tomorrow with another Fun Halloween card! :o)

Happy Thursday Everyone!!! I hope you're not sick of my Create a Critter cards already! These are the last 2 I did for that request I had gotten.... I think all the Cards came out sooo cute and I hope you did too! :o) It really was a lot of fun making them...

Of Course I just laughed when she told me that!  Anyway... without further ado... here are the last (2) cards! Enjoy!

I could not resist doing this adorable snake card! I love the new Stampin' Up Designer paper and this totally Rocked it! (In my Opinion) of course! LOL Basically everything is Stampin' Up...  And I cut Mr. Snake out @ 3 1/2" using all the layers to him.... Then I cut the Balloons out at 2 3/4" 2x's each for added POP!

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

Of course I did lots of inking for the added depth and  the sentiment is computer generated... I thought since it was a snake, it would Hiiissss a lot (RIGHT?) :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

I just had to cut out this cute Hedgehog! She is cut out @ 2 1/4" and I cut out ALL the layers once again...   I used Stampin' Up Materials (again) No Surprise.... right :o) The bow was cut out 2x's for the added Pop... And I added some stickles on the bow to give it that Bling!

I figure I wouldn't be able to post all 6 unless I do double duty on showing you the cards.... Soooo Today there is a Cute Bear Girl Card and an AWESOME Boy Gator Card! (Or at least I think so anyway!) LOL   Without further ado here are the cards!!!!!

On this adorable birthday bear card I used 2 Cartridges.... Of course the Create a Critter.... and the Bear was cut at 2 1/2" using the Reg. Key (Dark Brown - nose, mouth, eyes)), Layer 1 (Light Brown around face and ears), Layer 2 (Medium Brown -Top layer of Bear), Layer 3 (dress) cut 2x's,  and the Balloon was cut at 2 3/4"  2x's with a Peachy Keen Stamp Called (Critter Faces - Small)
The Other Cartridge used was SongBird - Which is the frames the bear is on top of.... I cut those out at 3 1/4" using the Shadow key (Rich Razzleberry CS) and Reg. Key (White CS with inking around edges)
(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

All the Cardstock and Designer Paper, Ribbon, Ink are all Stampin' Up
(No Surprise there) :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

The Bear is pretty thick with all the layers..... but it came out great.... I also inked around all the edges for a shadowy/depth look...  This is a Reg. A2 Size Card which is (5 1/2 x 4 1/4) On to the next one! :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

Ok... Now I really like how cool this Gator came out... :o)
All the Cardstock is Stampin' Up so is the ink and
the Rope Twine....
The Designer Paper is Bo Bunny (Star Struck)
The Gator was cut @ 2" .... Reg. Key is ( Navy Blue - eyes), Layer 1 is (Peach Parfait - Pointers on back), Layer 2 (Certainly Celery - bottom and dots),
Layer 3 is (Old Olive - Top Layer)
I also cut out the Accessory Features (Grass) 4x's on the small grass and 2x's on the larger grass....
The Balloon was cut @ 2 3/4" 2x's and I put the rope in between the layers.....

Here is a side view, so you can see the layers.... I glued (1) layer of the grass on the card then put the Gator down with dimensionals, then I added the second layer of grass with more Dimensionals... I inked everything to give it some shadowing/depth.... :o) This is Also an A2 Size Card!
Well I hope you like them! I'll be back tomorrow with the other 2 I did.... Thanks for taking a peek, let me know what ya think! Have a great day!!!!

Another "CUTE" Card!

Hello and Happy Tuesday Everyone! As I stated yesterday... I will be showing you "Cute" cards all week! Soooo without Further Ado, here's another Cute Create a Critter Card! :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

Is this not one of the cutest little doggies you've ever seen? I thought this was sooo perfect for a little boy card!
It's just to stinkin' cute I tell ya! :o)
Basically I designed this in my Design Studio.... I welded the 2 dogs together to make it the correct A2 Size card
(5 1/2 x 4 1/4) and it fits perfectly into the envelope!
I then measured everything to fit over each layer sooo  everything would match up.....

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

I cut out the hat, #1, doggie collar 2x's each to give it some added POP and I don't normally do the inside of the card when someone is going to buy them from me, sooo they can fill the inside out the way that they want... But in this case, this is a Shape card, and it was black on the inside and that is always hard to fill in, sooooo I cut out extra pieces in White then inked the edges....
I totally think this is perfect for a 1 yr. olds Birthday, or someone who loves Firemen, or someone who loves Doggies/Dalmatians...
I told ya I had something Stinkin' Cute! hehehe
I'll be back tomorrow with another cute card!
Thanks for taking a peek, let me know what you think!
