Pivot Twist Pop Ups

These cards are SO much fun to make and can be adapted to smaller sizes easily.  Following tutorials found on the internet, I've made one for the Aurora  Wings Challenge this month and others for fun below using Karen Schulz Trick or Treat and  Autumn Sunset kits.

With Thanks_ Autumn

This thank you card has the Sherri Baldi graphic cut out with Lil Inkers Stitched Mats die,  mounted on copper foil, with a copper foil "thanks" diecut from Avery Ellie "sentimental." It is finished in Prismacolor pencils and Wink of Stella. This was made for a special friend who helps me SO much ALL THE TIME keeping my computers running  perfectly!

Aurora Wings_Daisy Elf

This side fold card is Mitzi Sato-Wiuff's adorable Daisy Elf. The thinking about you embossed black sentiment is by Lawn  Fawn in the Scripty Sayings set. Wink of stella on the wings touches off this pretty graphic.  My Prismacolor Pencilled Daisy Elf is on a sunflower!  Hearts and tiny butterflies are strickers, and the artpiece is diecut with the pierced frame mat set by Spellbinders.  I created this for the  Anything Goes Challenge #38 at Aurora Wings.

Aurora Wings Anything Goes

Love this gate-fold card with SU DP.  For this card I used Aurora Wings adorable little Halloween Witch Kitty and posted it for the Challenge 38 "Anything Goes" Blog challenge The prismacolor pencilled graphic was photographed, and then worked onto papers created my Michelle R;  the bats are by Panos in his "Spooky 2016" collection, all held closed with Jolee's Dimensional stickers "gitter spiders".   Inside the is the artpiece is finished with stickles, Wink of Stella, and a word art strip in Halloween Spider font.  

Delightful Fall

Delightful autumn  and delightful Fun with Tim Holtz Birches Texture fades Embossing folder (Sizzix 661405) using a letterpress and stamping on the folder technique inspired by Sandi MacIver.  The little ferns are from a Gina K stampset, and the folder was brayer-inked with Crumb Cake (SU).   The celebrate die cut is from the Avery Elle Sentimental Dies set.  The green accent paper is DP from SU.  The accents are little birds from SU Thoughtful Branches, a sticker sentiment for Happy Birthday on the card with the Trina Walker Adorable celebrating pumpkin. (He'll probably be landing in a bunch of leaves when I get them created!)  The precious fairy is called  Autumn Enchantment by The Paper Shelter.  Printed and pencilled too, wioth stickles, like the little pumpkin.  

Christmas Box Z card

This card's design was inspired by a tutorial by Deb Valder on her site for Your  Stampin Journey.  The graphic is by Miran, and is the October Progressive Challenge in the Miran Group.
Papers are Real Red, Emerald Envy and Whisper White (SU) the Seasons Greetings is a sticker sentiment, and the little Miss is  colored in Prismacolor Pencils and accented with stickles, glaze penm Marvy puff "snow" and Gellyroll clear star accents.

A Twist on the Holidays

For the Technique  Spotlight at Splitcoast Stampers, I followed the tutorial by  Dawn Olchefske for a Gate  Fold Twist Card.  I used SU DP "This Christmas Specialty" and Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, and Emerald Envy papers and inks.  The card is VERY small, but will fit folded into an A2 envelope where the other twist fold I made would not unless one side was folded in.

Tree Line

This is one of the beautiful Tim Holtz  Thinlits in the Tree Line die set (661064) cutting green holographic paper and inset into a distress inked brushed sky touched with Marvy heat set Snow Marker snowflakes.   The circular sentiment is heat embossed from Simon Says Stamps and Circular Die Set--Circle Sayings (SSS101551) The star over red holographic paper is an outline sticker from pop-ups etc.

Happy Halloween Aurora Wings Challenge #37

This fun pivot pop out card was inspired by Joy of Obsessed by Scrapbooking.  

The Pumpkin Sprite is by Aurora Wings, Mitzi Sato Wiuff's creation colored in Prismacolor Pencils for her Fall Challenge #37   The inside graphics are from Make it Crafty.  The colors are to be black and orange and one other. (yellow/yellow green)  Background two-sided paper is from my stash. that is black and white and a mossy green.  It is an Echo Park Paper called "Chillingsworth Manor"  The Sprite and the jack-o-lantern's are finished with Wink of Stella and with Tim Holtz Enamel Accents and burnished with "black Soot" distressed ink.  The inside sentiment is white heat embossed stamped from SU Seasonal Sayings stampset.

Tim Holtz---Birch Trees

I used the Tim Holtz " Birch Trees" Embossing folder # 661405  for my first go at using an EF as a stamp.  The technique is FUN and the possibilities are limitless.  I was inspaired (and helped) by the tutorial created by Create with Dee  I used SU papers Very Vanilla and Night of Navy, the Marvy heat embossed snow marker pen, sparkle spritz, and a stamp from the  SU set Teeny  Tiny Wishes.  Inks are Night of Navy, Sky and Mossy Meadow.  The little cardinals are from SU Thoughtful Trees stampset.
