Back to School

Around here it is the first day of school. Kids are both nervous and excited as they head back to class.

Today is not a big deal for my household, you see, your youngest is starting school next friday. That will be the day that School is a big deal!

You may have seen the double pocket cards. To make this one I used the tutorial. Of course details are all up to you! Here I used dementionals to pop out the Fhiona and liquid glass to accent the apple on her headband. This is also my first attempt with Copic markers. The whole world of Copic is new to me but ... interesting.

{materials}

Copic markers, designer paper by SU!, white, black ink, Fhiona stamps by yournextstamp, black and blue card-stock

Hope your kids are having a great day back to school.

Spooky{tag}

Here she is! Fhiona with a cute Halloween costume. This is a witch that you would love to see tied on a treat or with a note just to say : “Have a great day!”

I stamped some friends for Fhiona in the background. The spider has a tiny paper pierced trail leading up to Fhiona. The ghost is a simple white outline, like a ghost should be.

The colors used for this tag are from Dawn McVeys’ Raspberry Suite color Challenge #16. I love the rich palette Dawn always picks. She has a great sense of style.

{materials}

kraft and white cardstock. markers. white and brown ink. Yournextstamp Fhiona image. yellow grosgrain ribbon and brown satin ribbon. The tag was cut with the MM slice.

Have a great day,

Shaz

P.S. I {heart} comments.

Swingin' {Fhiona}

Here is a little card I made with sweet little Fhiona.

This Fhiona image is called Day Dream Fhiona. The image is actually of Fhiona sitting on top of a flower but I trimmed off the flower and placed her in a flower swing I cut using the MM Slice.

To Make Fhiona look like she was sitting on the swing I put dementionals on her bum and left arm. I also cut the right armpit

so that her arm can hold on to the swing. The swing is also raised with dementionals.

The sentiment "Bithday Girl" from the Cupcake Cutie stamp set perfect for any little girl.

Supplies:

Cupcake cutie Fhiona and day dream Fhiona stamp sets available at yournextstamp. Shapes cut with MM Slice Black and Brown ink. Twine. And lots of dementionals.

It is grey around here so hope your day is bright!

Here he is the beautiful baby boy! Isn't he such a cutie.

This card is one of the card I made for the YouNextStamp site. I had fun working with this lil' guy. Here is how I got those tiny clothes hug out to dry:

1st I stamped the image on the card in just the right spot.

Then! i stamped them on white paper. I dod this do the true color would show when I colored them.

3rd, I used colored pencils for that soft look. When I was done coloring I trimmed out the clothed and glued them to the line.

He is a happy clean boy, isn't he!

Supplies: "welcome baby boy set" of stamp {YourNextStamp}, CTMH colored pencils, Washington Apple desighner paper {SU!} Blue and White cardstock.

Have a fun day All!
