For You - Gift Tags Hi Friends! Thanks for joining me again in another post. The Greeting Farm stamps are such a wonderful addition to making gift tags.  Today I used some stamps from the new Fa la la clear stamp set, the Secret Santa set and I Heart Sweaters set. I used the Tim Holtz Tag die cut set to use as the base on 110 lb Neenah cardstock.  I used Copics to color all of the stamped images. For the two shaker cards I filled them with Diamond Dust from Flora Craft and also glued it to some of the snow drifts. I will definitely be making more of these to adorn my holiday gifts.

Don't Have a Stamp? Draw it!  Hi Friends! So, my daughter wanted to have a Jack Skellington birthday card for one of her good friends.  This was a last minute card I had to finish today. I didn't want to find an image online and print it, so decided to try my hand at drawing it. I found an image I liked and took a mechanical Bic pencil and sketched him out.   I then used a Copic liner to line the pencil and then erased the pencil lines. The Halloween paper is from the Recollections collection from Michael's.  To cut out the stitched circles and rectangles, I used die cuts from My Favorite Things .  The Happy Birthday sentiment is from Hero Arts .

 Dia De Muertos! I was scrolling through the digi stamps from The Greeting Farm and came across Chibi Spain . I had a thought in my head that this would be a perfect image to make a Dia de Muertos card. Her hair, her dress, her face, her everything was perfect.   So, I got her printed out and took my pencil and began to draw out a design on her face in pencil then used a copic liner over that. I used my Copics to color her hair and used my Ohuhu's to color the rest. In my stamp stash I used the Whimsy "Dia De Muertos" stamp from the Sugar Skull Cuties stamp set for the sentiment. The paper is from my favorite local small business craft store The Paper collage . To cut the oval pieces I used Hero Arts oval stacking die set . Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog!!
