Gobble, gobble!  Who doesn’t indulge just a little too much on Thanksgiving?  I saw Sunsational Stamps adorable Tom Turkey image and I instantly thought of him wobbling, so I grabbed one of those Action Wobblers, printed out Tom Turkey and got coloring.  I used alcohol markers on him, I did not take the time to shade him as I think he is very cartoony and whimsical looking so the solid coloring fits the mood.  I cut him out leaving a slight border and added the wobbler to the back.

Sunsational Stamps Tom Turkey

I wanted to make a raised top panel so I die cut a 3″ circle centering it horizontally, but cutting it more toward the top half on a piece of brown patterned paper from my stash.  I also die cut a piece of fun foam at the same time to use that to raise the panel. I die cut a dark brown twig wreath from one of my Elizabeth Craft Designs dies to frame out the opening and my wobbly turkey!  I added Queen & Co Orange Slice gems to the wreath.  I made a GOBBLE sentiment block using some of my Authentique letters.  I adhered this top panel to the cream-colored card base, added my wobbly turkey and moved on to the inside.

I die cut 3 colorful feathers from a Studio Calico die that my sweet and generous daughter gifted me from her stash.  I layered the dark brown paper, brown patterned paper and an additional cream piece that I had printed ’til you Wobble on.  I added the feathers and added these layers to the inside and called it done!

I thought this was a good entry for the November Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge, where anything goes as long as the focal point is a critter….and Tom Turkey is just that!  please head on over to:  https://2craftycrittercrazies.blogspot.com/2017/11/challenge-8-sponsored-by-sparkle-n.html and see all the inspiration!

Long time no see!  I am happy to be scrapping again today, I have been on hiatus due to work getting in the way.  Sigh….  But today I was able to make a few projects that you can check out over the next few weeks.

Happy Easter Card

I used ZIG Clean Color Watercolor Markers as well as ZIG Pearlescent Watercolor – Jewel Box, Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Paper and a Stampendous stamp that I have literally had since I started stamping well over 20 years ago.  I just LOVE this stamp, the bunny is so adorable.

Happy Easter Card Ingredients

The first thing I did was stamp the Easter stamp with Versamark and then I used Ranger Silver embossing powder.  I like using this method when I want to contain my watercolor for a CAS card.  I used a combination of markers and the Pearlescent paints, then mounted the watercolor paper on a black mat then onto some Studio Calico patterned paper that I had in my stash.  I actually made several of these, giving a different color background patterned paper for each one.

I hope you liked our project today and would love it if you would click on the ‘Follow Me’ button and Like us on Facebook so you don’t miss a thing.

Howdy fellow crafters, today I created a card for a dear friend of mine that moved into a new home.  I am so excited for her 🙂

New Home Card

I used a Studio Calico stamp set and added a CTMH sun image from a set that retired a year or two ago.  I used Doodlebug papers from my stash, as well as American Crafts Thickers that I colored with an alcohol marker to match the CTMH Lagoon shimmer tape.  The building scene is colored using Distress Markers.  The sky was lightly sponged with Tumbled Glass distress ink.
