I also got to use the new Simple Stories Cozy Christmas collection that I got from the My Scraps & More store. Love these papers, and embellies!

Sharing a simple yet elegant white on white Christmas card I made for a scraplift challenge over at Turtle Soup. I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder and some snowflake stickers from Stampendous and went over the embossing with some Smooch Pearlized Accent Ink. Added some pearls and viola!

Snow Fun - Let's Capture Our Memories

Posted on October 14, 2014 by Nadine Carlier with 5 comments

I saw this fun sketch over at Let's Capture Our Memories and had to use it. I've had these pictures of my daughter crawling threw the snow tunnel that her daddy made for her going to our neighbors driveway that I knew would be perfect for this sketch.

I used some glitter on a chipboard snowflakes I had. Also added some Heidi Swapp Ghost Shapes and Bo Bunny Chunky Charms.

On the background I did some dots with modeling paste and a stencil and flicked some Metallic Ayeeda Paint by 13arts over that. Sprayed some Tattered Angels Chalkboard Glimmer Mist too.

Gotta love the glitter Thickers! Also in a few spots I used some glass filler by 13arts to create some snow. You can see it in this picture below the S of snow.

and here is my sketch inspiration.

Product List:

Patterned paper: Best Creations, Bo Bunny Snowy Serenade

Embellishments: Heidi Swapp, Bo Bunny, Hero Arts, Tattered Angels

Alpha: Thickers

Posted on August 24, 2014 by Nadine Carlier with 8 comments

There is a new challenge up today over at Red Carpet Studio. The movie for this challenge is Billy Madison. This movie follows a man who has grown up in the life of luxury without any responsibilities and in his quest to go back to school he earns his diploma without any help from rich relatives. The challenge is to create a project that uses "back to school" supplies such as paint, coloring, spray ink, stamps, etc.
Yay, may favorite kind of challenge, to get messy!! I used lots of mists and some Gesso and stamping on the background Core'dinations paper which I sanded to distress the page up even more. Added lots of layers under this picture of my son and daughter that I absolutely love. My daughter is following my son and wearing his cap last year after his graduation ceremony. I couldn't ask for a better son and big brother for her to follow after "in his footsteps".

So Much Fun - A Cutt Above

Posted on August 01, 2014 by Nadine Carlier with 4 comments

Wow, it's August already! Today is also the first full challenge over at A Cutt Above. Have you checked out their cut files yet? They are fabulous! For todays reveal I used the Star Spangled die cut and the So Much Fun cut file. After cutting out the Star Spangled out on my Cameo I then adhered it to some red velum and then cut it out with scissors so all the star cut outs are red. I love how it turned out!

A close up of the red velum behind the stars and a cute Made in the USA chipboard piece from Scenic Route. Also love these gold chipboard hearts and clothespins from Studio Calico.

On the So Much Fun cut file I cut it out on plain white cardstock and then sprayed some Smooch Spritz Gold Glow on it and traced around the edges. I found these patriotic wood pieces by Jolee's by You lost in one of my scrappy drawers. Who knows how long they have been in there but they were perfect for my page.
