New Vision Embossing Series

Hello Everyone,

Today I posted another video in my series of New Vision Embossing.(where I take my old dies and embossing folders and use them and incorporate the new stuff). In this video I inked an embosslit Flower Burst from Sizzix, then I die cut hearts. I also used some paint chips to cut the dies. It has been lots of fun playing with my stuff. I have more videos coming on some other techniques I used.


The die that I used was a die that I received when I bought my first cuttle bug some years ago.

Thanks,

New Vision Embossing

Hello Everyone,

I have started a new series of videos on you tube. New Vision Embossing. I am taking some of my old embossing folders and dies(some of which I have not used and had for 5 years or more) and using them and mixing them with my new stuff. It has been a lot of fun planning them. I love doing videos and I had taken a break from them for a while. I am working on a few other series also. Well here is my video and a few pictures of my project.



Have a great day!

MCT Designer's Challenge ~Miss Rosy

Hello Everyone,

For this challenge we were to incorporate Fabric and Stitches to our projects. We could make any type of project.  Meaning, card, layout, home decor, or 3-D project. As long as we use MY CREATIVE TIME PRODUCTS with it.  I knew exactly what I wanted to create when I saw Emma's card right here. (scroll down to the thanks cards)
Here is my entry: 

I started out with the DCWV paper I purchased last year, The Winter Magic Stack. I used MCT Ornament dies and Lower case dies. I used twine for my fabric and I stitched a zig zag and attached the silver paper to the card base paper. I popped up the ornaments.  I love the blue Christmas paper and when I send a thank you out around Christmas I like to make it Christmasy (not really a word). I also like to do this for the other holidays. I am giving this card to a friend at work who always does extra nice things.

Challenge Me Monday #135

Hello Everyone,

Today is Monday and so time for a new Challenge Me Monday over at the Fantabulous Cricut Blog.
The challenge is Seeing Spots. Make a project using Polka Dots. What a fun challenge. Here is my project:




My project is an A2 sized card. The base is black cs. I used my imagine and printed the polka dot paper from the Teresa Collins cartridge, Black and White.  I also printed the diamond paper. I used the swiss dots cuttlebug folder behind the frame. I used the CTMH Artiste, boy I love this cartridge, to cut out the flowers and the frame and silhoutte. I used a corner punch and added some red gems in the corners. I did not include a sentiment with this card. Well, I hope you join us for this challenge and link your project up I would love to see what you have created. If you have not stopped at the other design team members blog do so they have some pretty amazing projects.
Thanks,

Designer Challenge at MCT

Hello Everyone,

I am entering the challenge over at MCT and the host this week is Shar.
Here are her details to this challenge - make your own flowers, a minimum of three (3), they don't have to be the same, incorporate some kind of bling, and use them on a card or layout. But there is a teensy twist -- you must use this lovely color palette for your project.

 
 
Here is my project - I made a set of 3 cards to go along with a box to put them in. I used the Simple Stories Harvest Lane paper pad and the only cricut cut was from CTMH Artiste the flowers. The twine is my bling it fits right in with the fall theme. Everything else was part of the paper collection.
 
 This top picture is the box and below are the 3 cards I made out of the paper pad.
