Happy New Year (Almost!)

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from  Lady of Leisure Ink.  Today is my last post of the year for A Scrap N Place - thank you Terri, this past year has been a blast. Today's tag is also my post for C Thru The Woods.  My inspiration for this tag came from Pinterest.

How cute do this couple look, celebrating the new year in the city?

The city skyline, clock, fireworks and 2015 are cut using files from my Silhouette Cameo.

See you all next year.

'Credit Cards Have A Limit?' Card

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - thanks Terri for having me.  No month as guest designer for Terri would be complete if I didn't make at least one project using a Prima Doll stamp (you know how I love them!)

Don't you just love the colours on these Bo -Bunny papers?  I couldn't resist giving her a cheeky face using some Peachy Keen stamps and a sentiment that I created using my Silhouette Cameo.

I actually made this into an easel card, so that it could stand up and you could see the sentiment inside.

Thanks for stopping by today.  See you next time.

Happy Holidays from a 'Tartan Miss'

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - thank you Terri for having me.  My card today is probably one of my very favorite, probably because it uses one of the new Prima dolls, but also because I love this Authentique 'Believe' paper.

 
How cute is she dressed in her tartan outfit?  The hat is actually part of the set included with the Prima 'Dog Treats' stamp set, and the bag is from the Prima 'Boutique Set'.  What do you think of her 'fur' trimmed boots?

Thanks for stopping by today.

No Peeking Under The Christmas Tree

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink.  Of course I just had to play with one of the new Prima dolls that Terri has in store, along with the beautiful 'Believe'  Christmas paper by Authentique, (for this project I used the 6x6 paper pad.)

Here are a few close-ups of the card.

Don't you just love the sequin ornaments?

Thanks for taking a peek at my project, and as always thank you Terri for letting me play over in your space - see you next time.

Summertime Fun

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - as always thank you Terri for having me.

For my final card  this month I am using a Prima doll and more Authentique papers. I don't usually go for this kind of colour scheme - but they are so bright and cheerful.

I paper pieced this girl and added a handbag (from the boutique stamp set by Prima) and a pair of sunglasses (another brad from my stash,)

I've also given this girl some facial features using a stamp set from Peachy Keen - love how cute this makes her look.

Thanks for stopping by today.  See you next time.

Cute Cowboy Couple

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink- as always thank you Terri for having me. So I am back playing with the Prima dolls and guy stamps from C Thru The Woods.  I have used 'Becky' the cowgirl and Michael, don't they make a cute couple?

Of course I had to use that bucket die and the barbed wire fence die (both from Memory Box.)

The background paper for this card is from Authentique, and I used papers from my stash to paper piece the clothes and ProMarkers to colour the skin.

Thanks for stopping by today,  See you next time.

City Boy

Hi there and thanks for stopping by!

It's Ceal here to share a card with you today. Say hello to Aidan, the newest Prima doll and a boy!  Instead of making a tag like most normally do with the Prima dolls because of their size I made a birthday card, just stamped him lower on my card front.  I colored him with my Copic markers.  To get my background I used some watercolor paints and then added some city stenciling and some stars. 

Sassy

Hi there and thanks for stopping by!

It's Ceal here to share a CAS card made with Natalie one of the many Prima Paper Doll stamps you can find at A Scrap N Place. 

I used some Mme paper for her dress and jacket and then colored her skirt with my Copic markers and added some stickler for Bling, because a sassy girl has to have bling right?

To add a little more sparkle I used some clear sequins. Sequins are a fun way to add sparkle and still be a mailable card, terri has lots of sequins to choose from 

Have a 'Spec'tacular Birthday

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - as always thank you Terri for having me. Today I have a card featuring one of the Prima Dolls (you know how much I love them!)

This particular doll is one of the stamp and die sets, so I didn't actually fussy cut anything - you have to love it when a card comes together so quickly.

The paper is from Authentique, the sentiment is computer generated, the lace is coloured with a ProMarker to match her outfit, then I added some flowers (Marvy punch) and some pearls.  Don't you just love those glasses?  They are brads that I have in my stash.

Thanks for stopping by today - see you next time.

Wedding Day Dolls

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - thank you once again to Terri for having me as a designer here.  My final card for this month is a wedding card, using both a Prima Doll Stamp 'Tasha' and one of the guy stamps 'Alex' from C Thru The Woods.

The background paper for this is one that I had in my stash, but Terri has plenty of lovely papers similar to this with script on that would work beautifully.

The dolls are both cut by hand, coloured with ProMarkers (any alcohol markers will do) and the clothing paper pieced.  Here you can see a close-up of the bouquet which I made using a small flower punch and a Cheery Lynn 'Wreath Strip' border die (plus some little pearls of course!)  The dress is cut from vellum and stamped and embossed ('Soft Swirls' background stamp from SU, and white embossing powder.)

At the top I used a couple of Memory Box dies for the hearts & bow and birds.

Thanks for taking a peek at my project today.  Until next time.

So Many Men...

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink - thanks Terri for having me.  I have a little tag made with one of the Prima dolls that I have never used before.  Becky the cowgirl - she fits in perfectly here in July with her red white and blue outfit, and with it being rodeo season here in Colorado, the sentiment is just right too!

I coloured the image with my ProMarkers (but any alcohol markers would work just as well), Her facial features are a stamp from Peachy Keen Stamps and the sentiment is a stamp from Rubber Romance (this could also be computer generated.)

Here are a couple of close-ups.

Here are a list of supplies used (all available at A Scrap N Place)

Prima Doll Stamp - Cowgirl Becky
Glitzy paper pack (6x6)
Ribbon
Twine

Thanks for stopping by to Check out my project today.  See you next time.

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus

Hi Everyone

Michelle here from Lady of Leisure Ink, thanks for having me Terri.  We continue with the Christmas in June theme, and today I have a special Christmas card using one of the Prima dolls (Tasha) and 'Andrew' one of the guy stamps from C Thru The Woods.

I used red cardstock for the card base and printed the song lyrics around the edge with my computer.  I dressed Andrew in a Santa outfit (drawn by hand) and then gave him a beard and santa hat (die from Memory Box).  I used Sno-Tex for some dimension on the beard and trim of the santa outfit.  Tasha's dress is paper pieced from some scraps of paper from my stash.  With the addition of a sprig of mistletoe and pearl berries my card was complete.

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you enjoyed my project.

See you next time.
