Day 2 of KKS Sneak Peaks

Welcome back to our NOVEMBER Krafty Peeks!!! Today we are excited to share the TWO new SETS by artist Cheryl Alger!!! First we have some characters that you are already familiar with.....Lulu, Lexi and Lucas! And we are very excited to share a sweet new inspirational set by Cheryl!!! It's OFF WE GO!! and DELIGHTFUL VERSES!!!

For my first card I used Lucas and the papers I used are from a 6x6 MME pad that is called Away we go. Kept it pretty simple cut out the image with my spellbinders and inked the image with some soft sky SU ink before removing it from the frame. Then I traced the spellbinder onto some kraft cardstock and cut it out to create the small frame around it.

With Lulu the papers are from Blink of an eye from MME frames lulu with my scalloped spellbinders ink it with some wheat chalk ink and punched out some flowers using the same dp added some buttons and twine.

My girls were off on a play date today so I had tons of Krafty time to myself!! Yeah!!!  :)

I was on such a role today in my craft room that I made three cards for today. I wanted to talk a little about this last one because some of the details didn't really show up that well in my photo. I wanted to create a scene but wasn't really sure how I wanted to do it. I first thought about a pop up card but my Tin man was a bit thin and flimsy so I scratched that idea. Then I thought maybe an easel card would work nicely...and I'm quite happy the way it all came together. I found some great papers in my stash as the backdrop, some it you might recognize from and old 6x6 from Stampin Up.The stone paper I'm not sure where it came from, sorry. Probably a DCWV pack but i can't say for sure. So I dusted off a couple of old tools to create the scene, like my heat gun and my fiskars dry embossing plates. First of all I embossed the Tin man onto some silver metallic cardstock with some black embossing powder and I paper pieced his ax.  I had an embossing plate that kinda looked like a stone pathway so I used that on some glittery yellow cardstock to create the yellow brick road. Really it was all quite simple, I liked how simple and clean it looked so I kept it just as is. :) 

Thanks so much for stopping by and if you're still with me through all of this you're next stop on the blog hop is, Melanie.  HAPPY HOPPING!!
