Graphic 45 Botanical Tea Card Samples

Graphic 45 Botanical Tea Collection contains a large assortment of double sided paper, cardstock stickers and lots more. 
 Here are three cards I created using the papers and stickers from the Botanical Tea Collection:
 This A2 size top fold card was created with Tim Holtz Craft Core Nostalgic collection cardstock and Graphic 45's Botanical Tea Cardstock Stickers. I sanded the paper and inked it with Distress Ink. The butterfly is a punch with bling for the body.
Next I created this 5x5 top fold card with blue cardstock for the base. The mat background is Field of Flowers. I also used Prima bling, punch & pop dotted the flower with a sticker for the center. 
 My third card is also a 5x5 top fold card. It is on Adirondack Collection of Kraft Core cardstock with Fauna as background mat. I punched a few small flowers, diecut a half-circle (inked it) and layered several stickers lower right. I also used a pin with ribbon tucked behind the pop-dotted butterfly sticker.
Thanks for taking a peak at this great collection. I'll be sharing more projects with you soon, so stop back and check it all out. The Botanical Tea Collection is available at The Scrapooking Studio, Moline IL or you can order it online: www.thescrapbookingstudio.com  along with a lot of other great products that are also available online.

{Layouts} using Sizzix Dies by Shelly Maxwell


The title on this one page 12x12 layout was created using Sizzix Tim Holtz Arch die with the Sizzix movers and shapers bottle cap inside of the arch. I paired it with a Pebble's banner kit and twine and used Sizzix Word Play Alpha XL for the letters (which is supper easy to use!)
 We attended a Cedar Rapids Kernals game in April and I was able to get some great pictures of the kids with the team's mascot. I wanted to carry the baseball theme throughout the layout so I used a red pen to draw faux stitches on punched circles and placed in the center of the die cut "Bottle Cap" openings in the arches.
I used the punched circle bottle caps for embellishments on the lower right corner of the layout for economically add-ons.
Simple Stories papers were used on this layout along with Prima flowers, and our actual game ticket stubs.
In this one page 12x12 layout I also used the Sizzix word play alpha with Sizzix Tim Holtz Arch Frame die. I used the arch die cut paper as part of the title background and the die cut alphas for the title (so quick and inexpensive to use!)
 What I love about the XL Word Play die from Sizzix is that it also has numbers on it so I can add dates, etc!

{Cards} Copics, Dies, Summer Fresh!


What do you get when you combine awesome Sizzix dies, Hero Arts Stamps, Copic markers and Summer Fresh paper from Simple Stories? 
Shelly here, with the answer to that question: you get beautiful cards full of rich colors, dimension, hand colored die cut images and more. Check it out...
This "Happy Day" A2 size card is on a green cardstock base, boasts two pennants (WRMK) and a die cut, pop dotted butterfly from the Butterflies #3 collection of stamps and dies from Sizzix and Hero Arts. Here's the inside:
As you will see throughout this collection the Butterflies #3 stamps and dies have been used to create pretty (and dimensional) flowers and butterflies.
On the card below you will see flowers layered on top of each other (pop dotted), the word "Love" die cut from a mat piece (also die cut) using Tim Holtz Alterations from Sizzix "Ornamental" die and "Love" movers and shapers die.
The 6x6 paper pad from Simple Stories containing the Summer Fresh line of papers and tiny/small die cut journaling pieces and titles works great on cards. (Inside below):
A flip card...
...allows the butterfly to peak through and be seen from the front and the "inside" of the card when it is "flipped".
This card was die cut from a Sizzix Flip-Card die. It is about 5"x5" so it will require a larger envelope than an A2 size card will use.
And one final A2 size card, again featuring die cut stamped images colored with Copic markers to create vibrate, beautiful die cut images. (Use dimensional pop dots to give your die cut shapes a bit of a "wow" factor!)
 And the inside:
I hope you enjoyed taking a look at some fun summer cards you can create using dies, papers, and markers all purchased at The Scrapbooking Studio, Moline, IL.

{New Die} The Matchbook Die from Ranger


Shelly here with a peek at a great new die from Sizzix, Ranger and Tim Holtz:
It's the Alteration's Mover's & Shapers Matchbook die
I was very excited to try out this great addition to the Movers and Shapers collection of dies. Here are a few cards I created with the die:



And here's a look at the cards' insides:
This die lends itself to a great deal of creativity! I think it would also work great as a base for an adorable mini-album. The finished size of the larger matchbook is 3x3 1/2"  and the smaller of the two matchbooks measures 2 1/4"x3 1/2".

Hint: layer several pieces of paper inside the fold of the matchbook and then attach the pages & cover together using the tiny attacher.

Paper used with these cards: My Mind's Eye-On the Sunny Side papers and Die cut pieces.
Thanks for checking out the hottest new items at The Scrapbooking Studio!

{Project} Shadow Box

Miss Caroline papers combine with a shadow box, Melissa Frances frames, Maya Road gems, trinkets, wire flowers, chipboard flowers, resin flowers, and lots more (all available at The Scrapbooking Studio, Moline, IL) to create this inspirational box. I love all the options available to the designer when creating scenes in the shadow box. I used Ranger Distress stain to color the exterior of the box and the inside edges of the smaller boxes. I also used a Sizzix Distress border die to create the upper border.Bella Blvd. tiny alphas to create some of the phrases.

{Cards} designed with Miss Caroline from MME

Happy Valentine's Day! I hope you have some love planned for your day :)

The Miss Caroline collection from My Mind's Eye continues to keep my interest as I create cards using these double sided beauties! When they are combined with the label stickers, pins, buttons and adorable wooden butterflies you will end up with great looking cards that are sure to impress. Here are a few samples I've created using the Miss Caroline collection available now from The Scrapbooking Studio, Moline, IL

 This 5"x5" card boasts a Maya Road chipboard butterfly stained with Ranger distress stains.
 The wooden butterfly from the Miss Caroline collection was stamped with a Wendy Vecchi stamp, then painted with Tattered Angel's glimmer glam and finished around the edges with a brown distress ink MARKER (arriving at The Scrapbooking Studio very soon) and the butterfly has a clothes pin body.
 Tim Holtz stamps embellish this barn board card along with a Miss Caroline button and some twine.
 Ranger embossed card stock (inked of course) serves as the base for this baby congrats card. I've used a Maya Road chipboard butterfly that's been shimmered with Tattered Angels.

 Wendy Vecchi stamp serves as the greeting for the tag/pocket card. Maya Road chipboard butterfly and Stickles glitter gel for the body and accent. Maya Road Crystal gem for the tag topper.
 Tim Holtz stamps & Distress Ink Markers  couple with the Miss Caroline papers to create this little Easter card.
Welcome baby with a sweet flower created with Prima flower, ric rac ribbon, and label stickers.

Thanks for taking a peak at these new cards created with the Miss Caroline collection from My Mind's Eye available at The Scrapbooking Studio, Moline, IL
