A House Fit For A Queen

Happy Labor day everyone. I hope you are all enjoying a little R & R today. It's overcast today so the perfect day for crafting I think. Kids are playing in the playroom, wonderful breakfast with hubby already, so I'm energized and ready to go.

I recently got my hands on some of the Hallowe'en in Wonderland collection from Graphic 45. As soon as I saw this stuff when it was sneak peeked on the Graphic 45 blog, I knew I had to get my hands on some of it. Then I saw it in person at CHA, I was sold!!!

In the Curiouser and Curiouser paper, I saw that little queen with her beak wide open and got an idea. Why not create a perfect little house for her. So this is what I came up with hehe.

I purchased the wooden birdhouse at Michaels for 1.99. Everything is adhered using Helmar Adhesives. The paper is directly adhered to the wooden house using Premium Craft glue. The flowers with 450 Quick Dry and the characters with Liquid Scrapdots.

OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!! As she points to Alice, the trumpet blared...

That Cheshire Cat looks on, perched in his tree, smiling down ...

Am I late for the event, the White Rabbit wonders...

Alice runs to hide and stumbles upon that Mad Hatter.

Dun Dunda DA!!!! The Queen in her Squawk Box. I love how the Liquid Scrap Dots from Helmar really gave me the ability to layer the characters with serious dimension.  You can get some of this magic in a tube at Really Reasonable Ribbon. Hope you enjoy.


Take care and we'll see you soon

PS- I've entered this into the Gingersnap Creations 3d Redhead challenge. If you want a great challenge site, take a peek.

Raise the Bar "URLooking Good" Challenge

Happy Friday everyone. The sun is shining and today is a Professional Development day at school so We have our first "day off". The children are going to have a fun day together I am sure.

It is another challenge day at Raise the Bar and this challenge is super cool.

Create a card or project based on your blog, it can be the title, blog header, overall theme (hence the URL wittiness hehe)

So off to my stamps I go to find a favorite from my About Art Accents Stash, grabbing a bit of the new Parisian Anthology paper I've got and some Yummo Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist too.

I love using the distress resist technique when working with Glimmer Mist. Oh So pretty.

Here is my card inspired by my blog. Pretty fitting I think.

I used the Jute String in Cocoa available at Really Reasonable Ribbon It comes in a bunch of different colors too. Speaking of Really Reasonable Ribbon, We have our Design Team Call posted and if you love working with ribbon, we'd love to see you apply.

You can get all of the information for the call HERE

Enjoy the sun today and take a few moments to create.

A Queen of heArt

Hi Everyone. Today is reveal day for me over at Debby's Dare. I was so fortunate to meet Debby at this past CHA and I was offered a position on her first ever design team. I'm a Queen of heArt and I'd love for you to stop by Debby's Dare and say hello.

I've had a few projects on my blog recently, that I've created for Debby using her wonderful vintage journal tags. If you love to journal, these tags are so versatile and come in both transparent and cardstock.

Debby also carries a bunch of Moxxie papers and I can't wait to get my hands on the Wizardry Collection

Here are a few cards I've created using the Chillin Out paper kit from Moxxie

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you are all enjoying your Thursday.

Until next time
