MOVIE ⭐️

Hi everyone!

Ready to go for challenge #4 at The Little Things ?.......   GREAT!!!

This month's theme is: Famous People

Our challenge blog is all about little things—more specifically, little cards.

Any card type that is smaller than a standard card (10,5 x 15 cm / 4.1" x 5.9" inch) is okay, 

such as ATCs,  ATC coins, tags, Memorydex cards, 

Mini Moo cards, bookmarks, inchies, etc.

We hope that the variety of card styles and sizes 

will give you plenty of room to create something that suits your personal taste.

Charlie Chaplin (AALL&Create) immediately came to mind as a famous person 

and,

the film strip cutting die was just the right size for a slightly different kind of tag.

The stars, ticket, clapperboard and the word MOVIE are part of the die cut set (Deco Time).

I brushed a white light beam on the inner part of the tag and then stamped the quote. Colored Charlie with alcohol ink markers, gave him a little smile, and cut him out. Cut out three travel tickets from a paper pad (Studio Light) and glued everything on. The stars I colored with a gold glitter pen. 

I backed the tag with gray cardstock and cut out two of the holes from the film roll at the top to attach the ribbon.

Comme join the Fun!

Hi everyone!

Time for a new challenge at 613 Avenue Create! 

Anything Goes w: optional twist: May Flowers

(create something featuring flowers)

I made this card for a dear friend's birthday. 

She was my eldest son's nanny when I still lived in Germany. 

We've always remained friends, and she even visited us in France! The best nanny ever, 

and a friendship that has lasted 45 years!

The pop-up card is made entirely from Stampin' Up! products. 

I created it during a workshop with our crafting group. 

Unfortunately, I can't remember the specific products used, 

as they were provided by our Stampin' Up! demonstator.

When you open the card, the jar with the flowers lifts up. (colored w. alcohol ink markers)

The white stripe on the left leaves space for the birthday wishes ;)

Hope to see you play along with 613 Avenue Create

Hi everyone!

We're heading into the second half of our Dream Factory challenge, and I would like to briefly remind you about it.

 

CODE 3

Use at least 3 colors of your choice!

Black, white, gray, and brown are neutral colors and may be used in addition.

It's my little sister's birthday, I made her this fun pop-up card. 

I punched out different borders in various colors and layered them on top of each other, then stamped the sentiment and attached the little horse to a string so it can swing back and forth.

Now for the inside of the card.

First, I set up the pop-up mechanism—three pieces of cardstock, and it works like a charm! 

I then stamped the images, colored them in with alcohol markers, and cut them out with scissors—the things we do for our little sis, don't we! 

On the right, I stamped nachos, chili peppers, limes, avocados... 

For the left, I stamped a strip of patterned paper with nachos and backed it with green cardstock.

I glued some of the images onto a rectangle of orange, green, and white cardstock, stamped the remaining part of the sentiment and glued the die-cut “60” underneath. The last few images and birthday wishes found room on the small flap on the right. Finally, I glued the rectangle I had prepared earlier onto the remaining part of the mechanism.

Now, let's see, how the thing works...

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!

Ther's still time to join in the current challenge at

"The Little Things" 

The theme is: Rainbow, sun and clouds

The challenge blog focus on small card formats, 

such as ATCs, tags, Memorydex cards, Mini Moo cards, bookmarks etc.

It’s been a while since I made my last Moni Moo cards...

...so I’m all the more excited to show you these two. 

For the first card, I stenciled the images on black cardstock using acrylic markers. Colored the background with less opaque acrylic markers. Stamped the quote (AALL&Create), cut it into small strips and glued them on.

Inspired by the first one, I created the second one freehand in the same style on a scrap of Distress Oxide background. 

Here, too, I used acrylic markers, and instead of a stamped sentiment, I added a matching sticker.

Thanks for stopping by :))

Hi everyone!

Time for a new challenge at the Dream Factory

Our movie for this month is:

Code 3

We’ll stick with the movie title—but our code is:

Use at least 3 colors of your choice !

Black, white, gray, and brown are neutral colors and may be used in addition.

You're also welcome to use the colors from the movie poster...

I picked up all the colors from the movie poster—even that from the green label! :))

According to the poster, I should have used more blue, but I liked lilac better.

The purple-striped background is from my stash and was originally intended for a card, 

but as we all know, things don't always turn out as planned—especially when it comes to art!

I simply added a few black splatters and stamped a bit of text from AALL&Create.

I colored the flowers, the bee, and the labels for the sentiment with alcohol ink markers, 

cut them out (or tore them), and attached them using adhesive foam pads.

Hope you like my multicolor tag

Hi everyone!

Today marks the start of challenge #3 on 

“The Little Things”

The theme is: Rainbow, sun and clouds

Our challenge blog is all about little things—more specifically, little cards.

Any card type that is smaller than a standard card (10,5 x 15 cm / 4.1" x 5.9" inch) is okay, 

such as ATCs,  ATC coins, tags, Memorydex cards, 

Mini Moo cards, bookmarks, inchies, etc.

The variety of card shapes gives you plenty of room to create something that suits your personal taste.

Here’s what came to mind...

For these two ATCs, I used mostly things I already had on hand. 

A while back, I wanted to make a card using a large background (15 x 10.5 cm), but I thought it was too huge and couldn't figure out how to work with it. So it ended up in my stash.

The dog and the girl have been lying around for months—but today was one of those days where everything just came together! :))

I cut two ATC cards out of the large background, brushed the sky with Mermaid Lagoon (Distress Oxide), and stuck two strips of washi tape at the bottom of each card. For the houses, I just went with the colours of the stamp design—not very imaginative, I know!

The clouds were part of the large stamp; all I had to do was stamp the sentiment and raindrops and stick on the dog.

Same goes for the second ATC. The sun, brushed with Wild Honey (Distress Oxide), was also part of the large background stamp. I just glued on the girl and the sentiment, which I had stamped on a small label.

I didn't add a rainbow, but I tried to include at least some of its colors here and there.

The French sentiment says:

Après la pluie vient le beau temps

After rain comes sunshine

Comme join the Fun!

I'm really looking forward to seeing 

what creative ideas you'll come up with for this month's challenge!

 ...the stamp I used as a background for the ATC's, in its entirety.

Hi everyone!

Time for a new challenge at 613 Avenue Create! 

The theme is: April Showers

(create something featuring water)

Alternately "Anything Goes"

For today’s card, I pulled out some of my Katzelkraft stamps to keep them from getting dusty.

To bring the text to the forefront, I first stamped the umbrella, masked it, and then stamped the bunny.

 Next, I sprayed Distress Oxide Mermaid Lagoon onto my glass plate and misted the ink with water. Smudged it with my finger and then lightly pressed the card here and there onto the ink. I then stamped the raindrops and colored them with the remaining ink. The bunny is colored  with Aquamarkers.

To get the colorful umbrella, I stamped it in three different colors, cut each into three pieces, and assembled them in different color combinations. Glued one of them onto the card and added a strip of washi tape at the bottom.

Hope to see you play along with 613 Avenue Create 

Happy Easter Egg Hunt!
