It's Sneak Peek week over at Craftin Desert Divas (CDD) and I have the Googly eyes cake to show you and it's so much fun. Not sure cute comes in with Halloween things, but it's also cute ;-) . I printed my digi on marker friendly paper and colored it with alcohol markers and cut it out. Glued on actuall googly eyes with the Nuvo Deluxe glue I then cut a strip of white cardstock and inkblended Oxides on it: Carved Pumpkin, Picked Raspberry, Seedless preserves and Dusty Concord with a mini inkblending tool I ripped strips of black card and glued them to the back of the inkblended panel and mounted it with foamtape to the cardbase. The sentiment I made in Word and printed it. I thought the play on "cookie" into kooky was funny and apt for the occasion although it's a cake...but hey...

For today's card I started by inking up a circle with the use of a stencil I made by diecutting a circle from some acetate.
I've used Distress oxide Tumbled glass and Versamagic Spring Pansy.
Then I stamped the little stars from the Karin Joan set with Versamark and heat embossed Wow! golden flame embossing powder.
I diecut the geometric looking stag from metallic gold cardstock and adhered it on top with liquid glue.
The sentiment I stamped iwth Versafine Onyx black ink.

De kaart van vandaag is gemaakt door eerst de circkel aante brengen. Hiervoor heb ik een circkel uitgestanst uit acetaat/plastic, en die gebruik ik als stencil.
Ik heb aangebracht Tumbled glass en Springpansy.
Daarna heb ik de sterren met Versamark gestempeld en bestrooid met Wow! embossing poeder en verhit.
Het hert heb ik gestanst van gouden metallic karton en met lijm aangebracht op de kaart.
De groet heb ik met Versafine Onyx black ink aangebracht op de kaart.
Today I am sharing how to make a jumbo tealight box.
Mine are from Ikea, but I think they're all the same size.
For mine you need a piece of card 4"1/8 x 7"1/4
you score on the long side at:
7/8", 3"1/4, 4"1/8 and 6"3/8.
on the short side at:
7/8 of one inch and 3"1/4
Burnish the score lines and cut and notch as indicated in the pattern, then glue together.
I use a hot glue gun, but a really strong tape or glue will also work.
Make a thumb notch with a circle punch, not required, but I think it looks more professional.
To decorate my little box I used a Craftin Desert Divas digi stamp that I printed on marker friendly paper and colored with my Spectrum Noir markers, then cut it out.
I mounted tow layers of foamtape with space in between so I can feed the ribbon through this canal.
For the sentiment I stamped the Just because from Say it Big with Versafine Onyx black ink on a small tag.
This fortnight we're working with the theme: imagine.
Our sponsor is Winnie and Walter.
For my card I used the Winnie and Walter stampset called Big Hugs and I stamped the cute puppy and kitten with My Favorite Things black licorice ink onto the Crafter's Companion Neenah paper and let the Scan & Cut do the cutting out.
Colored the image with Spectrum Noir and Spectrum Illustrator markers. Nuvo Shimmer pen on their noses, bit small to see on the photo, but I thought pets need wet noses ;-).
The sentiment is from C.C. Design (puppy power) and I stamped it with Versafine onyx black ink, heat set it to be sure.
I used a gold like shimmery cardstock for my background and masked off a strip at the bottom, splattered Distress inks in Antiqued bronze and Dylusions White linen spray stain. Then Stamped the paws from the Puppy power set with Versamark and heat embossed them with Wow! metallic copper embossing powder.
Mounted the pets with foamtape. Adhered the panel with taperunner to the cardbase and mounted the pets on top. At first I wanted them to sit in the strip, but I didn't want to cover it now, so they sit on top, which helps to ground them I suppose.
For the "imagine" bit I thought about the anticipation of a child getting their first pet, I was so excited and my pets never let me down.
For more information, more DT examples and or to play along the AAA Cards Challenge, see this.
Today's card involves a double partial diecut image and then an dry embossed bit (body) too...and heat embossing as well!
I started my selecting a cricle die that would go with the stag, traced the circle on the cardbase. then I put the stag in place and only cut out the bit of stag inside the circle.
I then put the embossing mat onderneath and switched tab on the Sizzix to emboss the body of the stag.
Then I placed the circle die in place and cut out the rest.
I traced the opening onto the cardbase and innblenden the night sky. Splattered it with Distress spray and dotted a few glittery silver star diecuts from Marianne Design Col1442
I stamped the sentiment from Karin Joan KJ1717 with Versamark and heat embossed it with Wow Metallic silver sparkle embossing glitter/powder. Added one more of those stars, just because I had cut 5, but lost one somewhere hehe...
Mounted the panel with foamtape and adhered it to the cardbase.
I included a video of the same technique, but different card. I didn't have the matching die for the yeti, would have been easier ;-)

Voor de kaart van vandaag heb ik bovenstaande materialen gebruikt in een dubbele partial diecutting techniek.
Dat houdt in dat je eerst een deel uitsnijdt door de platen zo te plaatsen dat ze niets anders raken. In dit geval het hert en daarna de cirkel. Soms is het lastig omdat je het karton schuin in de machine moet leggen..dan is een A4 Bigshot eigenlijk wel handig...Maar goed let goed op de randje en knip evt restant met een schaar uit. Het hert heb ik ook met een embossing mat verder vorm gegeven.
Ik heb een vergelijkbare video toegevoegd. Aleen daar had ik geen tweede stans voor de yeti, maar werkt hetzelfde.
Daarna heb ik de opening op de kaart ondergrond overgetrokken en er Versamagic inkten op aangebracht. Distress Spray Stain gesplettered en een drietal uigestanste sterren van KJ 1442 vast gelijmd.
Daarna heb ik met Versamark de groet van KJ1717 gestempeld en met Wow embossing poeder verhit. Nog zo'n glitter sterretje erboven.
Dan heb ik de bovenkant met foamtape op de kaart basis gemonteerd.
