Mini Album

Today I have made a mini album using the Urban Market collection from Teresa Collins.  This is a Christmas present for my daughter.  She doesn't follow my blog so I'm pretty safe lol.  I used an IKEA frame and some metal clips from my stash.

My beautiful daughter.

Die-namics Pierced Tag.

I have only placed some photos inside.  The rest has been left blank for her to pick her favourite photos and will be put in later.

Lots of layering.

Tim Holtz Ideaology stickers.

Sizzix Basic Shapes die for the butterfly.

Stampin' Up! mini stapler, my new fav toy.

Project Life die from Stampin' Up!

Stampin' Up! Vintage Faceted Button.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly punch.  Lots of layers.

I am in love with this.  I almost want to keep it for myself but I know my daughter will love it too.

Take care of you.

Day 5 of my Stampin' Up! Project Life Monochromatic Mini Series

Phew, that is a mouthful of a heading, a bit like a tongue twister lol.  So, welcome to the final day of this mini series.  I have loved making these cards and I hope you have enjoyed seeing them.  So without further adieu here is the Day 5 card.

Back to my signature use of pegs lol, it had to be done didn't it?

I used a silver Sharpie to colour the sticker from the accessory pack and placed this onto some velum. Tim Holtz Ideology stickers have also been added along with sequin from the accessory pack and a silver foil heart to embellish.

Inside the 4x3 card has been layered onto black Bazzill card stock and another heart added to embellish.

I hope you have enjoyed this mini series, I know I have.  Back tomorrow with another card, this one most likely to be full of colour lol.  Take care of you.

Mini Monochromatic Series

Hello and welcome to Day 3 of my series of 5 showing how I have used Stampin' Up!'s Project Life cards Love Story and created cards.  If you missed Day 1 and Day 2 simply scroll down, easy peasy.

Sequin and a silver embossed flag have been added from the Love Story accessory pack and a Tim Holtz sticker also.

Again I have used the 6x4 cards on the outside and 4x3 cards on the inside, this inside card has been layered onto black Bazzill card stock and then a silver foil punched heart added for embellishment.

I love black and white, elegant and a fab classic.  I hope you have loved seeing today's card and come back tomorrow for another card.  Take care of you.

Tip Top Taupe Sublime

Today's card is a mix of Tip Top Taupe from Stampin' Up!, Die-namics from My Favorite Things of course, and yellow card from Bazzill and DCWV.   Here it is.

I used the Die-namics die Stripes Cover Up from MFT Stamps and Tip Top Taupe from SU. I replaced the inlays with Whisper White from SU.  I then adhered this to yellow Bazzill card stock, which has been die cut using the large stitched die from Die-namics Blueprints15 set. 

The butterfly is die cut from Sizzux Basic Shapes Bigz die using DCWV Collage Stack. This paper stack has never been released in the UK and I had a friend ship it from the U.S. especially for me. It has been a great collection, well loved and well used.  The tag is Mint Macaron from SU die cut using the Pierced Tag Stax from Die-namics.  

The heart is also from the Basic Shapes die using SU emboss resist paper that was available during Sale A Bration. This has been placed in a Dimensional from SU, as has the butterfly. Silver thread has been used behind the butterfly, this is also from SU. 

Lastly stickers from Tim Holtz, tiny butterflies using a punch from my stash and rhinestones from SU have been used to embellish the card. 

On the inside the same tiny butterflies have been punched from the Bazzill card with rhinestones added to adorn them. 

I hope you have enjoyed today's card. Please leave a comment if you wish and come back tomorrow for another card.  Take care of you.
