Guest Design Team TOMIC #35...

Wowieee...............I got to be a guest design team member at TOMIC, for this challenge, #35- Valentine Text & heart shape! I decided to make a card book, and this was my design! I layered and distressed all the papers, did some cut work too. I made the hearts, and in the big center heart cut out, I inserted some acrylic with a rub on too! On the inside I added some pretty flowers, a metal "Love" embellishment, some lace, and even some ric-rac around the edge! Tilda and Edwin are colored with distress inks! I hope you like it, was so much fun to create! Thanks TOMIC for this wonderful gift! Teresa*

LOVE.....

This is for TOMIC......sketch & fabric! I used the sketch and the material I used was that cotton lace with ribbon laced through it. I also used two of my new stamps, and paper that I won from TOMIC!! Was an awesome prize! I love the stamps I won, and the papers and flowers are sooooo pretty! This was a fun little card to make! I first made the front of card, then I cut out the heart design, and slid some acetate in between papers to make a window for Edwin to look out! The images are colored with distress inks, and I also layered and distressed all the papers! I did some cut work on the branches around heart. Added a couple butterflies, and one little heart with "love" on it! Hope you like it, and thanks so much for stoppin' by and takin'a peek! Teresa*

Valentine Book Card, with cool little Angel!

This was a fun little card book to make! I love that little Angel.....isn't he just a kick!! He's colored with distress inks! I layered and distressed all the papers, made the "fake" pages with my MS embosser. I made the hinges using an old hinge as my pattern, these are made of black cardstock. I put stitching all around with my white gel pen.I put lace around the inside of the heart in front of card -which the heart also has acetate inside it to make it look like a window, made a couple of the hearts, and I made the lace trim around angel with my MS punch! Hope you like it! It's for several challenges,
Anything Goes, Paper Play(stitches), Delightful Sketches(pink, black, silver).Thanks so much for stoppin' by and takin'a peek! Teresa*

Was an interesting little card to make....made me put my thinken' cap on!! Hope you like it, and thanks so much for stoppin' by and takin'a peek! Teresa*
