Walk With Me Daddy - Father's Day Card

Today's card project is for my husband from my son, for Father's Day. With word cards so popular lately, I decided to create one for this project.

  I used Scrappy Dew's Walk With Me Daddy Set.

I selected the red "Daddy" word layer, created a shadow layer in MTC. I duplicated the shadow layer and put it on it's own layer, then flipped it. I used some basic shapes in MTC to create little tabs on top of the letters "D" and welded everything together.

 This is the inside of my card. I put each of their one set of sleeves on the outside, OOps! Don't tell anyone. LOL Because there are a lot of pieces to my projects sometimes, I usually print a wire frame pattern out of my completed card in MTC.  I use it as a guide when putting my projects together because I work both up and downstairs. My Laptop is downstairs and I put my projects together upstairs in my craft area. I thought I'd remember where the pieces went, I didn't, LOL

Supplies Used: 

ScrappyDew's - Walk With Me Daddy Set

Martha Stewart -Twine and Ink

Fiskars -All Year Greeting Stamps

Recollections Card Stock

Sakura - White Gelly Roll Pen

Stickles - Turquoise

Have a great Sunday!

 Happy Father's Day Rob! Mr. ScrappyDew   :):)

Grandpa Father's Day Card

Today's project is a Father's Day card for my FIL, from my son.  I used Scrappy Dew's Gram and Gramps Set. 

The cut flowers and leaves are from Birds Cards The teal flowers are Recollections Jar flowers. I also applied some Stickles to the center of them. I think Stickles are my go to item when crafting. I use them for everything. LOL

This is the inside tag. I used Porky's font, which resembles a child like font. I Split the letters in MTC and then nudged them close to each other and did a Weld. I also created a Shadow layer, nudged each line close together and then Welded again.

To create my project, I used the Ancestry paper stack by K&CoMPANY  Plus, some additional colored cardstock by Recollections and Bazzill. Inked and chalked some of my edges and pieces.

This is the back of my card. I used Penny Duncan's Shaplie files. 

 I hope you enjoyed my project and thanks for looking!

Water Park Fun Tent Card - MTC Challenge

I created this card for this weeks challenge, on the MTC Forum. You can get more info Here 

With summer fast approaching, this will be a great set for all your water park layouts!

I took various parts of the water and tucked them in between the frame of my card. I added some water to the outside so it looks like it's spilling out of the water tube. You can see from the photo below just how small the pieces are. That is why I printed and cut them by hand. I still did not get a chance to calibrate my new cutter for Print n Cut yet.

I used the Swirl embossing folder for the water.

I used the Bubbles embossing folder for the light blue background. I also applied some Glossy Accents to the water and the small splashes. Added some Recollections jar flowers and a Rhinestone. I was not sure what to add in the corners and it needed something. LOL

On the back for my sig., which I forgot to take a photo of. I took some of the water, added a white shadow layer and added my info.

I hope you enjoyed my project. Thanks for looking.

Under the Sea Palz Tag

This is my example for the Piercing Tutorial I posted on my blog. I'm still using an Expression so I have to do it by hand.

I used the Rhinestone Feature in MTC to create a Piercing Template for my tag. I also used the Basic Shapes Tag in MTC for my project. You can find my tutorial and more info Here

I used Scrappy Dew's,  Under the Sea Palz

I applied some Glossy Accents for the bubbles and chalked some of the edges.

With summer fast approaching, I thought this would be a nice project to have on hand. My sister lives near the bay and I'm sure I will be using it for her or the kids. 

Thanks for looking!

Graduation Card

Our challenge this week on the MTC Forum is for a Graduation Card. The card file is provided by Becki, I used ScrappyDew Grad Palz Set. 

My niece will be going into Middle School next year and they are having a ceremony for the kids in 2 weeks. I created this card for her. These are her school colors.

The top of the card folds down and tuns into a cap. 

I thought I had ribbon to match my paper, of course I could not find it. So, I took the tassel from the grad file and re-sized it larger to attach to the cap.

For the back of my card, I used the certificate that is included with the grad file. I added a shadow layer in MTC, some text and printed it out.

Young Aviators Birthday Card

Hello everyone, I'd like to share a Birthday Card with you today.

I need a birthday card for my nephew for the month of June. When I seen this Young Aviator Set by ScrappyDew, I thought it would be perfect. I decided to create a window card. I still think it needs a little something for the front. Just don't know what yet. LOL

The card is going to be mailed so I could not do much 3D things. I printed a lot of the graphics because of this. I would have liked to use a brad with the propeller to make it spin.

I used a Cuttlebug Embossing folder called "Tiny Mosaic Texture" for the red frame. I don't have a brick one. The clouds I used the "D'vine Swirl" folder.

For the inside, I created a shadow layer for the front facing plane and clouds. The red mat is by Penny Duncan. I also took one of the clouds and put a sentiment on it. I used the same font as the Title, Kristen ITC. 

This is a close up of the boy on the inside of the card. I forgot to take a photo of that part of the card. I used red and silver Stickles on the glasses and the scarf.

This is the back of my card. I once again used one of the clouds for my signature, I also used the same font to tie it all together.

Thanks for looking! If you would like the Window Card File, you can download it Here MTC format only for right now.
