My first ATC


 Wow!  My first ATC and I won the challenge at Tellens Place!  And I won a $10.00 gift certificate to Scrapbook.com!  Thank you so very much! 

I made this ATC for the challenge at Tellens Place.  This is my first ATC, I was a feeling a bit awkward, I usually make 5 x 7 cards so this was really tiny for me.  I am glad though, towards the end it started to  come together for me.  And when ever I do something new I grow.  The darling digi image is from Tellens Place, the paper is DCWV The Sweet Stack, 2 scrap ribbons and the ric rac is new all from JoAnns.  I used a little foam to lift the images off the card stock. I also used Ranger's Tim Holtz Distress Ink worn lipstick.   BTW, those are chocolate chip cookies I am mixing up in the bowl, ha ha.  Thanks for looking, ~Diane

It's our husbands, ha ha

This card won the challenge at Tellens Place along with a $10.00 Gift Certificate to spend at  Quixotic Paperie, Whoo Hoo!
 I made this card with one of the Diva images from Tellens Place.   The sentiment is from a card I saw 15 years ago when the book I'm OK You're OK was popular, and the sentiment still cracks me up.   The layout is from the Tellens Place Challenge.  I actually planned this out for a few different challenges.  The Order of Opus Gluei wants to see sparkles.  I hope you can see the glitter in the card stock and I used it for trim and my jewels are very sparkly also.  Practical Scrappers wants to help us use up the supplies we have, this week it is markers.  I used my Stampin Up markers, Copic, and Spica Atyou ( for the table glitter, ) and I almost forgot the Souffle 3D ink!  Something Completely Different uses letters of the alphabet for inspiration, this week the letter is W,  I am using it for Women.  And Stamp Something has challenged us to use the color pink.  Wow, that's a lot of challenges for me!  The Digi image is from Tellens Place.  The paper is DCWV The Sweet Stack, markers are Stampin Up,  Copic skin tone marker and Copic Spica Atyou glitter markers.  I used both the Spellbinders Petite Ovals Nestabilities and Classic Ovals Nestabilities.   Glitter, jewels and ribbon all from JoAnns.  Thanks for looking, ~Diane

GOTCHA!


 
I made this fun little Valentine using the sketch Michelle provided for the Tellens Place challenge.  I also used one of the free digital images Terry so generously gives out.  Stop by her site and see whats going on, it's always fun.  This one is not my usual 5 x 7, it is 4 1/2 x 5.  Actually it started out as a 5 x 7, because I was working off a sketch I made in my notebook of what it should look like.  I was not sure about something so I checked back and realized my dimensions were way off!  So I cut away the excess to make it look more like the sketch.
I used my Spellbinders Petite Ovals, and the card stock is DCWV.  I colored it in with my Stampin Up markers, and I used a Copic for the skin color.  I also used my new atyou Spica sky blue glitter marker pen.  I have heard everyone talk about these, I found this one at my LCS on sale so I gave it a try.  I do like it, I don't know if the camera picked it up, but it has a little glitter in the ink, kind of sparkly.  It is the darker blue I used for the trim, belt and boots.  I found the wooden Gotcha! sentiment in the childrens craft section of JoAnns.  Well this was fun, these challenges are really inspiring.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Santa Chic


 

I made this card for 2 challenges this week.  The challenge at Play Date Cafe is hosted by Alison of Stretch n Bubbles this week.  Alison offered one of her images, but you can use any image you want.  The colors are Red, Lime Green and Bright Pink.  The challenge at Tellens Place is to use a technique called Paper Piecing, they too offer a free digi image to work with or not.   I embossed the red card stock with a Sizzix Texture Plate, I cut the 2 backgrounds with Labels 8 by Spellbinders.   I printed Alison's digi Chic on the green dp, and also printed it 4 more times on white cs.  I cut the flower hat 4 times, decreasing it's size on each cut, and colored each layer a different color.  I cut the purse and shoes out of the white cs also and colored them in and glued them on top of the patterned shoes. This was a lot of fun combining both challenges for this piece.  And even better since I really need to get my own Christmas cards done, Yikes!   Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Pink and Red Valentine

This is my entry for the Tellens Place Red and Pink challenge # 3.  The fab digi gal image is a freebie from her site, although you don't have to use her images to enter, they are just too cute to pass up!  The wonderful red foiled card stock is a find from my local Dollar Treasure store.  I also used a piece of pink vellum from  Paper and More to fill in where I cut the heart out with the Cricut.  This is the first time I used the center point function.  It took me some time to figure out which direction to place the card stock to get the hearts to both print out in the same place with the hearts going in the same directions on both pieces, but I finally got it right.  I ran the heart cut outs through the Wizard with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot folder.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Tellens Place Challenge


All Right!  This card won the the first challenge at Tellens Place!  A new challenge starts today, and there is another awesome freebie digi image, but you don't need a digi image to enter!  Thanks for picking this card.  ~Diane


This is the card I made for the Tellens Place Challenge.  The challenge was to "embellish it".  The adorable image was a freebie at her challenge site.  I'm not sure if you can read the caption, it say's "Now this is how to shop Black Friday.  While the kids are in line, I'll be on line."  My grown children have plans to camp out at a few stores to get the doorbuster deals.  Not me, I will be sipping my coffee sitting at the computer, looking for the on line deals.  I'll also be watching the clock for the Spellbinders Black Friday contest!  ha ha.  Tellens Place is a new challenge site, run by a wonderfully sweet lady named Terry.  Her son Marcus draws awesome images which she also sells at her Etsy store.  Marcus drew this sweet lady for her first challenge.  I was also the fortunate recipient of some of Terry's blog candy, of which I used the blue and brown cs from her stash.  I also used my Spellbinders Impressabilities Circles, and the Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Coffee Shop, I really like how that came out.  And it was so easy too.  I used Bazzill jewel templates Borders, and then placed 4 misc jewels in too.  These are more items from When Creativity Knocks Great Tool Hunt. The font is LD Going Nuts Scrap n Fonts (free fonts).  I colored the image with Stampin Up Markers, Prismacolor pencils, Souffle 3D ink, and a Tombow and Copic marker.

This is a picture of my blog candy from Terry at Tellens Place.  She even included some directions and envelopes for me!  And don't forget the adorable images, I stood them up in the back so you could see them better.  Thank you Terry.

 
Thanks for looking, don't forget to check out the Tellens Place Challenge site, new challenges start on Wednesday.  ~Diane
