TTOSTV~Liquid Pearls

This week we got to play with something I did not have, Liquid Pearls...
so I substituted glitter glue in it's place...

I could not get to a craft store to get the Liquid Pearls, but they do look like
loads of fun to play with...

Well with that said...
Here is what I did for Liquid Pearls Tutorial...


I stamped the image by MFPaHc, Spring flowers, with Memento Tuxedo Black then used my
Spectrum Noir alcohol markers to color the image...
then I added the pink glitter glue to the flower peddles, green to the leaves and
yellow for the middle of the flowers... (looks green in the photo, but its yellow)

So what can you do with Liquid Pearls? 
This week you will have the chance to win this marvelous stamp set


If you come play with us over at Tutorial Time on Speedy TV...Wild Horses
Be sure to check out the different stamp sets available at the online store
Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co and the other things they have...

oh and be sure to check out all the other design team members
blogs, they have some really nice inspiring projects using
liquid pearls or like stuff...
We all love the blog love, so be sure to let them know what you think
of each of their projects...
you can find a complete list of the TTOSTV design team

Chalk Time...

Hey, it's time for a new challenge again...
Chalk N Stock has changed things up, again...lol

it might be chalk ink, powdered chalk or cake chalk...you name it
chalk and link your project up and there you have it...
a challenge entry and a chance to win something cool...
most of the time we will have a sponsor...Bugaboo or like wise
There will always be something to give out to the winner !!!

This is my inspiration piece for you to get kick started on this week challenge

Anything goes...with Chalk


I colored my Bugaboo digi image with my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers
all but the wings...then came back with powdered chalk and added that to 
the body and wings...I like how it colored the image just that little bit...
it softened the alcohol markers some how...I will have to try this a bit more,
cuz I like the out come...added a sentiment from Stamp'n up ...
added some ribbon and inked the edges of the printed digi papers...
not sure if it's Echo Park or Lori Whitlock or a combination there of...oops
sorry guys for not remembering where I got the digi paper from...
but it is really cute...

I hope I have inspired you to link your chalk project to
the Chalk N Stock Challenge for the next 2 weeks...

each 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month...

be sure to make one for the future...

Friends of Speedy TV Challenge...

and boy was this a challenge for me...


you know a few years back that is all I did...make scrapbooks...but since I found my cutter
I have been into 3D paper crafts and now card making...
so to try my hand at a scrapbook page was really pretty hard...

I was never one to use stamps on a scrapbook page so that too was kind of hard...

well I thought and thought about it and I came up with this...


bad picture I know...but it's hard going from a A2 card to a 12 x 12 layout...
but I managed...

I used the Autumn Splendor stamp set by Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co
I can see maybe a fall photo at a pumpkin patch or corn maze on this layout...
now I have to set the stage for a photo to add to this page...heehee

Now it's your turn to make a Scrapbook page and enter it to the 

Happy Craft'n 
Happy Stamp'n

Happy Veteran's Day
Thank you to all the men and women that keep my country safe...
my God always bless you as much as you have blessed me... 

MyGrafico Monday... Neighbor Style

Good Monday to you...
today I choose the 


to create this darling, if I may say so myself...
Neighbors' Christmas Gift...


I found somewhere on the world wide web, this darling saying
"We're not trying to be 'corny', we just want you to have a Merry Christmas"

added some candy canes and some twine to this .49 cent corn bread mix...
these labels made it so easy to put this together, quick too...
I used my Cameo's print and cut function to cut the label out too...

Now what will you make for your neighbors?

Happy Craft'n

Boo To You...Blog Hop

Jearise from Lorby's World is our hostess for this hop 
so please make sure you start with her blog 
where she has some treats but no tricks for this Boo to You hop.
Trick or Treat. 
Smell my feet. 
Give me something good to eat...
Tonight we celebrate Halloween with porch lights on and ghost and goblins who come a knockin'.
This hop is to celebrate all that is fun and scary come Halloween night 
so join our crafters who have conjured up some Halloween fright or laughter as it well may be. 
Here is your broom for the ride through this hop....
These are some goodies I have prepared for my little Trick or Treaters tonight...

 This darling little Calderon is from a SVGCuts collection from last year... Party on Elm Street


Each of the candies are decorated...the suckers have googly eyes...
the candy bars have wrappers...
oh, how fun this was to take to work and show off...but they ate most of it...so I had to make more...
I love the added ribbon from Stampin' Up and the Epiphany embellishment with the spider,
oh how I hate spiders...

This next project is a wall hanging I put together...
I had every intention in hanging it in my entryway ..but it never made it there...lol...
so I will share it with you all...

I used a bunch of files to put the little witch together... if you look you can see a witches hat a the top and her legs hanging out the bottom... I have some of my very own original files along with some SVGcuts files and Silhouette America online store files...
This was a fun wall hanging to put together... the picture does it NO justice...
Thank you for ringing my doorbell and now continue to CallyAnn's blog. 
 If you stumbled upon my blog tonight and wish to begin the hop…start with Lorby’s World

Should you get lost out there…here is a list of the hop…so sit back and check out the Tricks or Treats we have for you...
