A Little Dirt Never Hurt

Hi friends! Beep! Beep! It's Julee Tilman popping in to share a little Jaded Blossom inspiration with y'all. I had fun getting dirty with the new Off Road Mini Release.

For my project I cut the jeep parts from the Car Dies: Off Road Vehicle from army green  and black cardstock, and a silver foil cardstock that I aged with black soot archival for the bumper.  I cut a piece of vellum to glue behind for the windshield, then dirtied up my jeep with some "mud" using the snow pieces from the North Pole Sign die set.

For the background, I picked out a gel pressed background from my stash in brown colors, then added some dirt splotches using portions of the Coffee Stain Stencil. To muddy things up I spritzed some water on and did a bit of smooshing with some coordinating brown  inks.  I did a little extra smooshing for the sentiment. It's from The Road Less Traveled, embossed in brown, then cut with the coordinating The Road Less Traveled Outline Dies. A strip of torn brown cardstock grounds the sentiment, and I popped the jeep up on dimensional foam tape. The 4x4 on the license plate was done by performing a little stamp surgery to the "I like my 4x4 topless" sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulous day!

Easter Eggs Ahead

Hey crafty friends! It's Julee Tilman hopping by with a little Easter inspiration using some favorite Jaded Blossom supplies. I think the Happy Easter Gnomie set is one of my favorite stamp sets.  It's so fun to color up these bunny gnomes.

So I started with the gnomie, coloring him up with Copic markers, then cutting with the coordinating Outline Dies. I layered some Doodlebug papers for the background using the Rectangles 2 and Scallop Rectangles 2 Dies.

The sign is cut from white card stock using the North Pole Sign and I added a bit of shading with some gray Copics. I cut the sign portion from patterned paper and then embossed the sentiment from Bunny Trail in white. I finished with some little grass die cuts courtesy of the Mushroom House Die, then scattered a few enamel dots for accent.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have an egg-straordinary day!

Candy Cane Lane

 Hello, crafty friends! Cynthia here sharing a new Christmas card using some of the new sets from the latest Release! I am looking forward to the holiday spirit with these Christmas goodies!

I created the background with the Holly Berries stencil using different shades of green ink and a red ink pad. I cut multiples of the Lollipop die to create a street lined with peppermints. 

I die cut the North Pole sign and added a sentiment from Reindeer Feed. I added some red enamel dots to echo the holly berries. I also added a stamped Christmas greeting and the card is done!

Thanks for stopping by!
