FBW #261 Open

This week's challenge at Flutter By Wednesday is OPEN...just make sure you have a butterfly or fairy on your project. I used the stunning Lilly Fairy of Enchantment image by Michele Perkett for my tag, and as detailed as this image is, it was quite easy to color.

I have been planning on making a HOLIDAY PLANNER for a friend and had the inserts printed and pre-cut...ready and waiting for the day I had a few extra minutes to work on it. This is what I came up with...

DP: K&Co

Ink: Momento, Copics, Marvy LePlume

Pocket Planner free printable from OrganizedChristmas.com

Behind the tag is a freebie notepad that came in the mail a couple of weeks ago

Handmade tags are included

Inchies from a 3 yr old swap were put on the back of the tags,

a small envelope was made from vellum using ZooBalloo

 Jingle bells attached to a clip for receipts and misc. items

FBW #259 Any Winged Creature

 

This week's challenge at FBW is Any Winged Creature, which means a butterfly and/or fairy is NOT required. If you look closely you will see which winged creatures I used....some low flying bats in a fun shaker wall hanging. Every time I walk by this wall hanging I have to shake it...I love the noise and movement.

 

 

Dilly Beans images were used, #483-Monsters and #477-Bats. About 8 of these bats were printed, colored, fussy cut and included in the shaker...I thought they would be cute flying around with all of the beads. The orange and black seed beads were gifted to me over a year ago, along with other small beads that were added to make this a fun...not too scary...wall hanging. 

 

Also used were a MS blood dripping border punch, along with a Spellbinders fence die. DP is from Paper Studio.

Another Happy Tuesday w/ Y&F H

 

Chase, from the Y&F H Back to School release has always reminded me of my son who has the same adorably pinchable cheeks and "puddin' face" grin. I  thought he would be perfect on a card for my son's 21st birthday...which is this coming Friday.

This is one of those cards that is much better in person. All of the blue stars were cut from glitter paper,  there's lots of pop-dots and texture, and I love how a layer of vellum mutes all the stamping behind the image. DP is from ATD's Textured Cardstock pad. The glasses were hand drawn.

 Copics:

Hair: E31, E33, E35

Skin: E0000, E00, E11, R20

Jacket, shoes: W1, W3, W4

Jeans: BG10, B91, B95, B99, W1

Shirt: G34, W1

 

 

Happy 21st Birthday Nico!

 

Our plan is to take Nico out to dinner and celebrate with family...grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins over the age of 21. I asked him....

 

Where do you want to go for dinner?

The Tilted Kilt

Ummmm, Mama and Papa are going too...can you think of a place more appropriate?

Hooter's

Alright, let's choose someplace together.

I want a big, juicy cheeseburger

It's Friday during Lent, it's not going to happen.

Get real, of course it's going to happen.

Do you think you're the only person turning 21 during Lent on a Friday?

Mmmmm...cheeseburger(s)!

Our compromise...stopping at The Tilted Kilt on our way home from dinner and having a drink at the bar. There's something about going to TK with your son that just isn't right?!! LOL!

 

Challenges:

Here Come the Boys: #46 Lots of Layers

Use it Tuesday: #49 Fasteners Used items: Number stickers, brads, background stamps

Deconstructed Sketch: DS89

 

 

Happy, happy Tuesday!
