AIFactory Blog Hop! It's Glittery

Welcome to my blog and to the AiFactory Blog Hop!

This delightful little squirrel is an image available from the AiFactory Store.

I printed him out of Photoshop and coloured using Copic markers. For the tree trunk I used VersaMark ink and Heat and Bond Powder, I sprinkled on Martha Stewart Glitter. The tree trunk rubber stamp is a red rubber woodmount stamp from Inkadinkado. I broke out the oval Coluzzle and the deckle edge Nestabilities in two sizes. Dark Brown satin ribbon tied around the pretty blue Martha Stewart cardstock.

to have the best chance at the great blog candy prizes!

Here is my first card for AiFactory
as a new member of the Design Team.

My first ever pop up card!

I used the Caterpillar-Butterfly digital images by Doodle Pantry at the AiFactory Store. The floral print paper is from DCWV, base cardstock is Neenah Classic Crest, Copic Markers to colour the cheery Caterpillar-Butterfly, the ribbon and the die cut. Diecut is from Silhouette Store.

I used the print and cut feature from Silhouette Robocraft Software to import the jpeg and cut him out. Another tip - used the small Making Memories grommets - which I have soooo many and crop-a-dile to set them to reinforce the holes for threading the ribbon.
