Brand new Twisters from Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!!

Today's card features one of the brand new Twisters from Art Impressions!  Ok, I've got to admit, I loved the old Spinners, from AI, but these new Twisters are SOOO much easier to make and pack just as big a punch as the Spinners did! There are SIX brand new sets which include both the front and back of the image (I'm so sorry I didn't take a picture of the back of the dog before I sent my card off!!) as well as the dies you need to cut them both out. Isn't he the cutest??!!  I used #5211 Dog Twist Set!  Now to make the Twister Set work, you need to purchase the Twist Frame Die separately.  But you only need to buy it once.  That way, you're not paying for it over and over again if you get more than one Twister Set!  It also comes with this cute Happy Birthday Die Set and the cute star I used on this card.  I simply cut them apart, but you can leave it all together is you want! 



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

Happy Easter featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!!

I'm starting on my Easter cards now and I just love #5004 Sweet Easter Set from Art Impressions! I used three of the individual stamps to make this. I just used my stamp platform and stamped them all at the same time. Easy Peasy! And even if you don't have a platform, it's super easy to get it right because these stamps are clear!

Hello AI Fans!!

I stamped him out onto Cryogen white paper and then colored him with Copics (colors listed below). I also used #5134 Banner Double Stitched Dies to create a frame for him by putting two of the dies through my machine together. I love using pink and red colors together for Valentine's day!

Sending Cheer your way featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

I like being able to combine stamp sets to make them whatever I want, don't you?  So for this card, I took some of the embellishments and a sentiment from the fun #5192 Penguin Cheer Set along and added them to #5181 Mailbox Cubbies. It was fun stuffing all those mailboxes full of Holiday fun and then decorating them with lights and ornaments! On the paper scroll that comes with the mailboxes, I turned it into Santa's list by just writing on it with a super fine tip pen.

A Teenie Weenie hug featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!

Today's card features one of the fun Twist Ties Sets #4987 Dog Twist Ties. Love these Weenie Dogs! LOL!  And the sentiment is perfect for this set!  Art Impressions makes it sooooo easy by selling sets of the Twist Tie Cards! The stamp set comes with the heart shaped die too! All I did was glue on my decorative paper on top of the Twist Tie Card, stamp the dogs onto the card, then die cut out around them.  For the dogs, I simply stamped them onto the cryogen white paper to color them, then cut them out and glued them on top of the stamped image on the decorative paper. Super easy!
