Christmas Easel Bow Card Twas the Night Before Christmas
Hello my sweets, how are you?
I am so busy with so many things... But I had a chance to craft!!!!
Lately, if you can't tell, I am on the roll with that bow card.. Oh well, I can assure you it is not the last one that you will see.
Alright, this time I wanted to make an easel card... Good, love those!
But if you know me, I just cant make simple things, so easel bow card sounded very nice...
But that is not it.. easel bow card on top of the box - that sounds alright, complex enough, so yep, done decided - Christmas Easel Bow Card on the box
Inspiration came from new Graphic 45 Christmas collection Twas the Night Before Christmas. Love it!
Here how it looks from all sides

Inspiration came from new Graphic 45 Christmas collection Twas the Night Before Christmas. Love it!
Here how it looks from all sides
Cute ha!
Lets take a closer look
It is easier to start from the back/base. I had this octagon shape box laying around, so I decided it was time for it... How cute it would be to have a little sweet something hidden inside the card...
So for the base I used that box and a card just simply went on top of it.. As you see above I covered the bottom of the box with paper and left few sides of the box as they were, but one side had a printed name of candies, so I needed to cover it, which was very simple to do using some images from the paper stack..
Just covered whole side with scraps and added cut out of two stamps using 3D pop dots.
On the fold of the card I used
Sizzix - Tim Holtz - Alterations Collection - On the Edge Die - Snow Flurries
that gave this card nice reach top...
The easel part of this card was done the most simple way - right across along the half of it - SCORE!
You can see how I created that crease. So I adhered bow tails only on lowest part of that element. But before using adhesive I took one of the G45 envelope/tag die cuts and placed it behind the bow tail layer and in between that red Christmas layer of the card. After finding correct spot for it I used my 3D pop dots to create a pocket for a tag and only after that I secured everything with adhesive.
The top part of bow tails layer was decorated with a paper die cuts snowflakes, for more interest.
Lets turn this card around and take a look on it from up front.
here some close up for you on how that tag pops out on top. May I mention while we are here the green bow layer was decorated with beautiful cotton trim (new arrival at NSK).
Zooming out...
Wow ha! Allot to take in for unprepared eye. No worries I will show you around!
Lets start from the back, which is that red plaid print. It is on of the bow tails that was decorated with paper snowflakes on top (remember?!). The secret to this card is - LAYERS.
What I did - basically.. I cut out a bunch of different swirl, snowflake sprays and borders out of paper (use what you have, don't forget punches and border cutters and figure scissors) using as normal layer of wax paper while die cutting those, which under normal circumstances would be thrown away, but not this time... I used it all.
After securing first layer, which was a bow tail, I adhered on both sides of it bunches of my die cuts. Then I used my pop up dots and adhered second layer/green larger bow. And mayo again, think about it as you are making sandwich.. So mayo/bunches of paper & wax paper die cuts. And third layer/small bow that already was altered on the edges with cotton trim.
I think you got the process down?!
Lets take a look on the front of this card again..
The icing on the top is a window frame with Santa's image inside, which is decorated with beautiful brooch and some tags from G45 collection.
Inside I capt this card very simple
Just a paper die cut and a lace with another tag from the collection..
In all it was very fun project!
Hope you like it and enjoyed this time spent with me....
Have a good day!

Cracked Wall Effect - Tutorial
Hello everyone...
I absolutely forgot to post the tutorial on process of creating cracked wall effect that I used while working on Phantom Haunted House - Explosion Box
I was trying to create effect of Which smashed into the wall and vaporized...
Of course leaving behind her shoes
and a hat on the other side of the house...
and only hole in between...
But the main point of this idea was to create a cracked wall - after shock on the wall of the Haunted House... And it took some work to achieve it.
I used modeling paste and sprays to to get a texture on the front of the house..
but the major task was on the upper level - roof...
with treasures in the attic...
To see how I achieved desired look of cracked wall, please watch a video tutorial.
If you have any questions just leave a comment below and I will try get back to you as soon as possible.
Have a wonderful day!

Thrifting with Luisa Diaz
Hello everyone!
Today was a fun day for a change..
My friend and one of NSK designers, Luisa Diaz invited me for a lunch during her visit to the parents house.
We were looking forward to that one keeping in mind that every one(me, I am talking about me of course)is very busy. So Luisa took that matter in her hands and after thoroughll checking she decided that we are going to one Chicken grill House, that is close by... Done, done and done!
Couple tweaks to our planes.. and we stopped by Thrift shop.. Yey!
1. We found few goodies.
2. I mat Luisa's family!
3. I spent only $22.59
4. We shared..
Amazingly efficient! To see our finds you have to watch the vid below..
Let me tell you what happend when we went to eat..
1. Luisa got stuck on the parking lot of the Thrift shop. There was a truck that pulled into plaza.. the rest was the history.. so she was a bit late for a lunch and I drove first..
2. While I was waiting on Luisa to arrive I nowthis something strange on the door of the dining..
Check it out
Ha, ha, ha! After all this time of planing! You got to be kidding me!
3. While that was taking place, Luisa passed plaza and got lost.. But luckily for us the was a Little Caesars pizza place right next to that one.. So we decided it will be fine.. But it wasn't as you would assume.
4. There was no sitting area at Little Caesars.. That was our lucky day after all..
I suggested Sarbucks and finally we went there (do not forget that there would be one ass on the road that paddling along the road with the speed of 20 ml/h in a zone of 35 ml/h. And with two cars travelling together passing maneuver wouldn't work.
But we made it!
Guess what guy made for me double doze of coffee.. Oh well I can take it at any day!
After all I had wonderful time and came back hope happy as a puppy with lots of goods and great memories that share with you!.
