Create with TLC: Good-bye Little Tooth

Greetings!

I hope that your week is winding down well.  We are preparing for another snow storm that is suppose to arrive Saturday.  I have to say that this snow has been gorgeous to look at, but a bear to get around in.

Today, I will be sharing a card with you using another image from Mo Manning and a sentiment that was created especially for this image by Paulette at Create with TLC.  She is so good at accomodating me with my somewhat strange request.

Here's my creation...

Good-bye Little Tooth

This little lady made me chuckle, because I remember when I lost my first tooth.  It was the day before picture day, so I took a picture wearing Winnie the Pooh overalls and turtleneck with a missing tooth front and center.  My hair was even in puffy pigtails like her.  Wow!  I decided because I was surrounding by snow to use some soft springy blues, greens and yellows for my card.  I started with a baby blue 6x6 cardstock base, layered on dp, yellow cardstock and some more dp.  I used Spellbinder's Wonky rectangle diecut to cut out my image and the blue mat.  I cut the tag and sentiment out using my Cameo.  I colored my image using Copics and finished it off with Stickles and ribbon.  The inside of the card, which I always forget to snap a pic of, states "hello lots of cash."

As I stated before, this sentiment was a special request from Paulette; however, you can get tons of freebies for being a follower of the blog. You can purchase other sentiments/images by visiting Create with TLC store. Be sure to leave love, because not only does it make the world go around, but it also shows how thankful you are for Paulette's generosity!

This coming Sunday, February 2nd, take a break from the Super Bowl and come hop with the DTs over at Create with TLC. We each will have some awesome freebies to give away and tons of inspiration. You don't want to miss out!  I will be stepping out-of-the box and sharing one of my *new* crafting passions with you.  I hope you will join us!

Create with TLC: A Friend Who Cares

Greetings!

I know that everyone is talking about the weather.  I have to say that there are perks and one of them is that my school was cancelled yesterday.  I have had an average of a day and half off each week since the beginning of the year due to the weather.  I really can't complain about that, now can I? 

Today, I am sharing with you a card I made using Mo Manning's image and a Winne the Pooh quote created by Create with TLC.  I love Winnie the Pooh.  I use to have all his clothes when I was younger. 

Here's my creation...

Friend who cares

I thought this little guy was so cute.  I started with a blue 6x6 cardstock based and layered on dp.  I used half of a scallop circle to put in the background.  The brown paper is actually paper that dishes were wrapped in and I recycled it for my card projects.  I love the texture and look of it.  I cut the image out using my Spellbinder dies and colored it using Copics.  I added Stickles to the snow and tree branch.  I finished it off by cutting the sentiment out using a die designed on my Cameo.

This sentiment was a freebie as for being a follower of the blog.  You can purchase other sentiments/images by visiting Create with TLC store.  Be sure to leave love, because not only does it make the world go around, but it also shows how thankful you are for Paulette's generosity!

Create with TLC: NEW set "Look Cute" - Inspiration #2

Greetings!

I am hoping that with all the cold weather that our Spring and Summer are nice.  I decided not to complain about the cold (too much), because my grandmother (God rest her soul) always would say, "the cold kills the diseases."  Wow, there are a lot of dead diseases this Winter.  I am popping in to share with you 1 of 2 creations that I made using a new set from Create with TLC called "Look Cute." It is hard to look cute in 5 below weather, but I manage some how. lol

Here's my second creation...

Just Shop

Okay, here's another card that is ink-free.  I used a 6x6 black cardstock base and layered on white cardstock and chevron red dp. I chose to use a silhouette of a girl shopping as my image for this card.  I thought it would be different and when I merged pattern paper onto the silhouette, it was different.  I knew I could do this with my Cameo, but had never tried it.  I loved how it turned out.  I used a simple flourish diecut and then popped my sentiment from the new Look Cute set.  I really can relate to this sentiment! teehee

Create with TLC: NEW set - Look Cute

Greetings!

I hope that you are warm and safe as we kick off another week.  I can't believe how fast January is winding down.  I am popping in to share with you 1 of 2 creations that I made using a new set from Create with TLC called "Look Cute."  It is hard to look cute in 5 below weather, but I manage some how. lol

 Here's my creation...

Often Imitated

I kept this card pretty simple.  I used a black and white theme, because those are such classic and forgiving colors.  I was watching My Fair Lady when I created this card, so that had a huge influence on it I'm sure.  I used a 5 1/2 x 51/2 white cardstock base, layered on half a sheet of dp and a strip of black cardstock that I punched using MS lace punch.  I cut the image and sentiment out using my Cameo.  I didn't add one ounce of ink to this card.  I was going to color her chair, but then changed my mind.  I love that saying, "often imitated, but never duplicated."  Yep, God made me and said, "one is definitely enough. " lol

Create with TLC: Snowfight!

Greetings!

The snow that we had has almost melted away due to the rain and the bit of sunshine we have had these past few days.  I happen to catch a dad and his sons building a cool dinosaur out of snow.  I haven't been back by there house to see if it is still standing. 

Today, I am going to share with you a card I made using Mo's Valerie in Winter and a perfect sentiment from Create with TLC.  I love how well Paulette's sentiment goes so well with this image.

Here's my card...





Snowball fight rule #1





I didn't see any snowball fights, but I did witness a guy on a snowmobile, fight a huge mound of snow and he didn't win.  People need to realize that snowmobile riding is not for residential areas.  Lesson learned...I hope.

Anyways, I started my card with a Red 6x6 cardstock base and layered on pink and then dp.  I used my 6x6 paperpad to decide my color scheme and I must say I love how it turned out especially the green.  It really pops!  I added some wavy green ribbon and matted my image to a Spellbinder's diecut.  I used my Cameo to cut out the sentiment and its layers.  I finished my card off with some stickles and white gel pen.  It was colored using Copic markers.

You can snag fun sentiments like this one and so much more when you visit Create with TLC store.  Also, don't forget to link your card (or project) up on the Show it off Sunday link.

Create with TLC: Mr. & Mrs. Love you to pieces!

Greetings!

I hope that your week is off to a good start!  I am sharing another creation using more goodies from Create with TLC.  As I mentioned in my previous posts, Paulette is now designing svgs and she has really out done herself (as usual). 

Here's my creation...

Mr. and Mrs. Love you to pieces!

I started with a 6x6 Kraft cardstock based and layered on some dp from Stamp'in Up.  I used the Mr. and Mrs. svg diecut from Create with TLC to create the white and burgundy background layers.  The Mr. and Mrs. were cut out on kraft and cream cardstock as was the sentiment.  The foilage was leftover from another project (post later).

You can get this set and many others by visiting the Create with TLC store.  Also, don't forget to link your projects up with Show it off Sunday!

Create with TLC: Don't be Koi...Just be my Valentine!

Greetings!

We recently just dug out from under a LOT of snow and now we have had rain.  Sooo, are streets are slushies!  I hope it doesn't freeze, because I haven't mastered iceskating yet.  I am so looking forward to Spring!

Here's a card I made using a Koi fish diecut from Create with TLC.

Don't be Koi

I loved the playing with this Koi fish svg.  I started with a light blue cardbase and layered on white and then dp.  I cut the fish and all the other components of the card using my Cameo.  I designed the splashes and heart dies.  I also created the sentiment.  I will have to ask Paulette to redo it.  I finished my card by adding a googly eye.

Happy New Year! Create with TLC svg freebies!

Greetings!

I hope that your New Year is off to a good start.  Lately over at Create with TLC, Paulette has been creating some super cool svg files and giving some away to her followers.  I have made a few cards using them and today I will share with the you the beautiful flower.

Here's my creation...

Bloom Into You

This card was created using a 6x6 cardbase, layered with yellow and then white cardstock with corners cut-outs.  Using the Cameo Silhouette I cut the flower shape out.  I used a white and orange gel pen to add accents to the leaves and flower center.  I also used a sentiment from Create with TLC.  I finished the card off with colorful dots.
