A Halloween treat box featuring Art Impressions stamps and dies

 Hello AI Fans!

Happy Fall!!! (tomorrow LOL) I don't know about where you are, but it's clearly fall here in Reno. The leaves are changing and I can feel the difference in the air. The nights are getting pretty chilly dropping down into the 40's. I have always loved the weather in September. How about you? I love the colors of the changing leaves, but it makes me sad that the trees will soon be bare. So anyway, I have a cute little treat box tto show you that I made for Halloween. It's such a simple and easy little thing to do, but how cute does this dress up a Halloween treat?! To make it I just grabbed #5805 Mini Journal Box Die Set along with #6111 Spooktacular set. After stamping, coloring, and die cutting the window and frog, I cut out the box top so you could look through the window once it was placed on the box top. I thought the window fit the box perfectly (although I did have to put the shutters in just a smidge). I did stamp, color, and die cut two window frames so I could adhere the second one to the inside of the box. I just think it finishes it off nicely. When you open the box, you don't see a lot of raw die cut edges. That adorable paper is from #6130 Halloween S3 PP. 




So that's it for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit and until next time - stay crafty!!

Live life in full bloom featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

I've got a couple more pages from a booklet I made using Art Impressions #6114 Box Village Template Set along with the #6159 Floral Shop Die Set. These two pages were done using #6193 Petals and Blooms and #6198 Flower Signage stamp sets.  I also used various sentiments from several Art Impressions sets. I will admit I wasn't sure how these would turn out using Copic markers instead of watercoloring them, but I really do like the final product! It's just a totally different look, but I like it! 






So that's it for met today! Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today and until next time - stay crafty!!

If my mouth doesn't say it....featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans!

Ok, all the fans of Art Impressions clever and funny stamps and sentiments please raise your hands!! (I raised both of mine) LOL!  Art Impressions people stamps have always been my favorite and probably always will be! And I love how you can pair up just about any sentiment with just about any stamp. That's what I've got to show you today. I took #4383 Wine Tasters Set from the Girlfriends line and paired it with a sentiment from #5517 Sassy Laugh Lines, and I love how it turned out. I stamped image onto a Copic friendly cardstock and then colored them with my Copic makers. I did this ages ago and can't find my list of colors I used, so my apologies I can't list them for you today. I die cut them out using #5061 Square double stitched dies and paired it paper from #5939 Fairy Garden PP. 








So that's it for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit and until next time - stay crafty!
