Scallop Circle Dress Tutorial

Hello everyone and finally it's Saturday!!! I have a cool project over at the Scrapbook Blessings Club called Scallop Circle Dress. I have made this for Valentine's day but these can be made for any occasion if you read my post all the way through.

I had so much fun that I decided to make two more dresses. I can't wait to have them on tags or in pendants. Can you just imagine the possibilities?

Hope you have enjoyed this card and hop on over to The Scrapbook Blessings Club if you want more details on how I did this!

TeePee Card Tutorial

Happy Saturday! This is for the ScrapBook Blessings Club Anything goes Saturday tutorial. I chose to make a TeePee card!!!

First, I have my tip of the day for you....Have all your items ready before you start.

Onto today's project...

This is a TeePee card and I have been meaning to try this for a long time and this was inspired from Shelly's instructions. 

Here is what you need:

• 3 squares of cardstock: yellow - 5" x 5"
• 2 squares of designer paper - American Crafts - 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"
• image - Candy Anneke 
• prismacolored pencils
• adhesive
• ink pad
• paper cutter
• stickers
• bone folder
• brad

Instructions

Step 1: cut your cardstock base at 5" x 5"

 Step 2: Fold each square in half from one point to the next like shown below.

 Step 3: Glue all folded squares together.

Step 4: Cut your designer papers at 4 1/2" each and cut in half, shown below.

Step 5: Glue 3 of the 4 pieces of triangle on 3 sides of the base. 

Step 6: Use the last piece of triangle on the corners. 

Here it is all assembled! 

 Here I added a brad for the closure. But you can also use velcro.

 Here is a close up of the picture I colored with my prisma pencils.

I hope your enjoyed today's project. If you have a question, please leave it in the comments and I will get back to you.  You can join up to our Facebook group: Scrapbook Blessings Club for more fun, games, inspiration, tips and techniques.

Building a Scene card - No colored pencils, Just stamps and paper piecing!

Happy Saturday everyone! Today, I tried a new technique for myself. As some of you know, I LOVE to color with my prismacolored pencils but for this card, I decided not to use any. It was VERY difficult for me but I had to try. I built a scene card...Yes, no colored pencils, just stamps and paper piecing!

I used the Alley Way stamps Christmas Express, a set that I won from one of their FB contest. I absolutely adore this set! I chose to play with the colors from the picture below (red, blue, orange and beige). 

Here's a tutorial on how I did this:

1. Cut your base at 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2".
2. Cut some hills from your dp.
3. Fussy cut the train, trees, candy canes and window.
4. Adhere hills and train using adhesives and dimensionals.
5. Stamp the dotted lines 3x.
6. Cut banner, stamp "Merry Christmas" and adhere.
7. Add stickles on hills and pearls on wheels.
8. Doodle around banner and star on train.

 Here's another peek from the side showing you the dimensions. What do you think?

Say Cheese + Tutorial on how to color with Premier Prismacolored pencils

Happy Sunday everybody! I can't believe the weekend is almost over...Sigh but another week is starting in a few hours...Yay.

Today, I have a tutorial about how to color with your Premier Prismacolored pencils. I need to specify that I'm not a PRO and still learning. I just hope that this will help you to break out your Prismacolored pencils and play with them. It's FUN I promise! This post is loaded with pictures :-)

 So, here are my starting materials:

• Your image
• Pair of scissors
• Patterned papers
• Tortillons or stumps
• Baby oil or gamsol (forgot to include it - sorry)

I start with the hair first and all pictures will tell you which pencils I have chosen. You can double-click the pictures to enlarge them if you need to. 

Now I color the shirt

Then I color the skin

Voila, the finished product! If you are fussy cutting, no need to worry about coloring outside the lines. 

 Here is my finished card
