Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #143-Gail's Feminine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Welcome to the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge! It Is an Anything Goes Challenge with a feminine twist. I decided to do something fun and play with this fabulous set from Kindred Stamps called Off To See The Wizard. I colored these adorable guys with Copics, and created the background using Distress Oxides. This amazing Box Card is cut using one of my favorite die sets from Craftin Desert Divas called Box Card Die, I am totally hooked on doing box cards! I love the depth and the ability to build a scene!

It Is Time To Start Thinking Christmas!

Hi Everyone! Are you starting to think it is time to get ready for the holidays? How about using some of your Craft Fantastic goodies as you make some presents? I am going to show you one idea today using some of our Jewelers Glass, Glaze & Glue, Image Sheets and Bling.

Here is what I started with! I have two of the same Holiday All Jewelers Glass Sheets, Glaze & Glue, Clear Mini Round Glass Bling,  Dew Drop Pendant Kit (You will only be using the glass on this project). Additional supplies used are a wooden box from the local craft store and paper to cover the box.
I am giving you basic directions for this project. There are so many different ways you can go with it. I first trimmed the paper to fit the top of the box and adhered my paper to the box with Glaze & Glue. Next I selected Images fromthe selected Image Sheets and used my Glaze & Glue to adhere the images to the Dew Drop Shaped Jewelers Glass and trimmed as usual. Before I adhered the petals and the bling to the box I did use a stencil and Glitter paste to add a bit of detail and sparkle to the cover. I then used my Glaze & Glue and adhered the Jewelers Glass and the Bling. I then also added a few sequins also using Glaze & Glue. And here you can see the finished product. You can really take this project in many different directions, whether you use different papers, fabric, lace, ribbon, paint, and you can really go crazy with tons of details.
Give it a try! I would love to see what you come up with! And if you have any questions at all please just ask in the comments section and I will be happy to help you!

I hope you all like this project!

Hugs,

Judy

And One More For Mood Board!

Ok, so I really can't help myself. I just love making these box cards! So I did another one! I am sharing several views because there is a lot going on with this card.



For this card I used images from both Ghostly Greetings and Spooktacular and the dies I used are from Boxcard Dies and Harvest Border Dies. I also used Distress Oxides for the sky in the background and Doodlebug papers as well as Copic markers.

Hope you like it!

I am playing with an adorable new set from Sweet Stamp Shop called Merry Cactus! There are several really adorable images along with some fun sentiments in this set.
