Birthday Card using KennyK image Sexy Teacher

Hello and thank you for stopping by. My card today I've made for a friend of a friend. Her name is Anna and she is from Austria. I've met her and her husband a few times. They are both wonderful so I was delighted when my friend Gerd asked me to make a card for Annas Birthday. I decided to go for a teacher theme as Anna worked as a teacher before retiring. I've colored the digi Sexy Teacher from www.kennykstamps.com and made this card:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Anna! 

Hope you have a wonderful day 

Papers from Maja Design and Core'dinations. 

I've also used kraft and Canson pastell paper for some details.

The flower is made with a Magnolia Doo-Hickey die and a Tim Holtz die. Beneath the flower I have a star from a Cheery Lynn die and and the leaves are made with dies from Prima and Magnolia. The white stars on the side are made with a Memory Box die.

Star border, numbers, big letters, arrows and the mini clipboard top are made with TH dies. The torn paper with a Marianne Design die and hollow stars with a Spellbinder die.

The image is Sexy Teacher from www.kennykstamps.com and I've colored her with Prismacolor pencils on Canson Pastell paper Mi-Teintes

Hello and welcome. For todays card I've used the gorgeous Meiya from Illustrations by T, so kindly given to me by Tamara. Thank you so much Tamara <3. 


Meiya is a joy to colour, with her gorgeous hair and big eyes. I love her pose and I couldn't resist using my rust pastes to match her hair. 

The rust effect is made with Finnabairs Rust Pastes and for some parts with a mix of different colours of embossing powders

She is coloured with Prismacolor Pencils

Lots of layers and a few metal decorations to complete the look

Album card using KennyK Retro Selfie

Hello. Today we are celebrating the wonderful Elena of KennyK Stamps. It's her Birthday today and all the DT's and GDT's have got together to surprise her and make her day special. We are all posting our Elena Birthday projects at Club KennyK Facebook during the day so welcome to have a look.

My project is an album card in black and white using the lovely Retro Selfie from www.kennykstamps.com. I want it to be a surprise for Elena so I'm not going to reveal here and now what's inside the album, sorry. Just in case she visit my blog. I've sent the album card to her but I don't think it has arrived yet.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ELENA!

Have a wonderful day!

I cropped Retro Selfie and colored her with my Prismacolor pencils using only french grey and black and with a touch of eggshell on her cheeks. 

I colored an extra pair of her arms, her scarf and the camera to cut out for a 3D effect.

I used dies from Sizzix and Tim Holtz only. Black and white cardstock and a small amount of aluminum tape for the camera where used. The sentiment is a metal decoration from Prima.

Here is another album card, but without decorations, made in a similar way. Just so you get a feeling of what I've made for her.

This cool badge is made by our wonderful DT 
Nicola Gold for this special day.
Thanks Nicola!

Thank you for stopping by
have great day

Christening card using Magnolia stamp

Hello crafters! 

Today I'm showing a Christening card made last spring. My friend Kristina wanted a card for her grand daughter Stella and she was very clear that she wanted a turqoise (absolutely no pink) and a non girlie card. The card happend to end up a little more cute than I intended but non girlie enough to get approved by Kristina :)

The image is from Magnolia, colored with Distress Ink re-inkers. Dies used are from Tim Holtz, Marianne Design, Cheery Lynn, Memory Box and Magnolia. Aluminum tape, turquoise embossing powder, white and turquoise cardstock, ribbons and metal charm from stash.

Have a lovely day

Hugs, Lisa

KennyK Bodacious Bev

Hi all,

My first DT project this year for KennyK is a mixed media canvas using the sexy Bodacious Bev, you can find her here. We want to welcome you all to a new year at Club KennyK and show you the new design team and our guest designers. We will start the challenges next month.

The theme is 'new' and first I didn't know what to do with the theme but then I found Bodacious Bev and decided to make her a new dress and put her on a canvas. The canvas is 20x20 cm/8x8 inches and covered with lots of metal decorations, metal junk and layers of paint. 

I've used stencils from Prima and Tim Holtz, Color shine from Heidi Swapp in the colors tropical teal and amethyst and art alchemy acrylic paint from Prima/Finnabair in the colors metallique black berry and metallique steampunk copper. 

The metal decorations are from Prima, Finnabair, Tim Holtz and unknown brands from my stash. I've also used a lot of metal junk found at the garage floor at my hubbys work and a few screws and nails found at home. The image is colored using Prismacolor pencils.

Have a fantastic day 

and thank you for stopping by

Hugs, Lisa
