Make It Crafty Inspiration Design: Treasured Friend

Hi!  I'm popping in with a quick share of my latest design inspiration for Make It Crafty!  I have been hit with yet another head cold this week which has thrown a bit of a wrench in my schedule.  After an epic night, which involved twelve hours of sleep and countless tissues, I feel ready to face the world.  From my bed.  In my pajamas.  From behind the computer screen.  But ready nevertheless!

For today's project I used the lovely Krista Smith image, Mermaid Sparkles.  I gave her purple hair because she is that cool!  Coloring was done with Copics. I added a MIC Friend single layered chipboard word and some chippie Tinklings Stars (also colored with Copics) plus a generous supply of La-La Land Crafts dies as well. The dies I used were: Lattice Doily Border, Lattice Border, Star Border, Seaweed Border, Wave Border, Stitched Elements, Sea Critters (Club Kit August 2017), Under the Sea, and Seaweed.

Make It Crafty Inspiration Design: Fangtastic

Hello!  Anyone who knows me knows Halloween is my favorite holiday!  It may only be March on the calendar, but it is never too early to be thinking about October!  Every year I say I am going to start my Halloween (and Christmas) cards early and then every year I still find myself scrambling last minute!  Well, not this year!  Here is my first Halloween card for 2018 featuring Mini Dracula from Make It Crafty!  He is colored with Copics, fussy cut, and popped up with foam squares.  I also used a MIC chippie which reads "fangtastic".

Dies are all from La-La Land Crafts except for the Weathered Clock Bigz die and Drip Edge Thinlits by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).  The LLLC ones are Ornate Border Large, Tombstones, Frightful Fence, Eerie Bats, and Spider Web Border.  The blood spatter was made with a Martha Stewart punch.

Make It Crafty March Coloring Challenge: Spring Skies

Hello!  It's March and where I live there's no telling what we are going to get weather-wise.  After we were just buried under over a foot of snow this week, I am seriously wishing for something a little more Spring-like!  It seems only fitting that our Make It Crafty coloring challenge this month is to create Spring Skies (with white puffy clouds, of course)!  I had never done this before so was a little nervous, but with some guidance (check out Zoe's awesome Coloring Skies eBook HERE, now on sale with the coupon code from the challenge post) it was much easier than I expected!

I combined a couple of MIC images to create my beachy scene.  I colored Avery at the Beach and Beach Umbrella with Copics then used the markers to create a sky as well.  And who can resist those gorgeous chipboard word sentiments?  Not this girl!  I added the single layered word Love, also colored with Copics.

I was able to squeeze in a few dies, too!  All are from La-La Land Crafts.  I used Love Owl Tag, String of Hearts Border, Heart Header Border, and Heart Doily Border.

Hope you liked my crafty inspiration!  Join us over at the challenge for your chance to win one of three $5 gift vouchers for the MIC shop!  To be eligible you must use at least ONE Make It Crafty product on your project and follow the challenge theme.  All coloring mediums are welcome and your entry does not have to be a finished project.  Enter our Add Spring Skies coloring challenge HERE!
