TUESDAY TREATS PROJECT

Hello my friends...
this is a copy and paste of my post for the Tuesday Treats.
I was invited to replace one of their designer who couldn't make it for yesterday.
I was sooo happy to be there among so many talented and well known crafters.
Enjoy!

*********
Hello to all!
My name is Agnes
aka
flowerdisco from 

I am so very happy to be at Tuesday Treats. I was invited by Pam to fill in for somebody who couldn't make it today. A bit intimidated to be among so many great talented ladies and hoping you like my card.
The cart of the month is Sentimentals and I chose the phone from page 59.  I used my Gypsy to weld both sides of the image and to weld the doorknob from page 34 to use it as a closure and as a stand for the card. It did not come out as I had it in my mind so I had to tweak it a bit and change plans.

Here is my 
Hi card
at 4.5 inches high
 I used the DCWV Songbird Collection stack for this project.
========
The Hi was cut at 1 inch and you can find this on page 25 of the handbook.
================
A closer view of the dimensional dial.
==============
I am showing here a strip of black paper and that is the doorknob cut that I ended up 
welding to the card base.
===========


Here you can see the front of the doorknob.
===========
 The back of the card and the other side of the doorknob.
===========
I am showing here a little pouch I made with a scrap of cardstock to insert the one side of the doorknob.
==============

This is the inside. 
When I started the card I started it with a white cardstock as the base but then I decided to use black instead and the white insert you see here was from that first try :)
============

This is a photo of my Gypsy screen where I added all my images ready to be duplicate to cut on the next layer. This is how I do most of my trials and errors. After I am satisfied, then I re-arrange everything to be cut, if possible, on one 12 by 12 mat.

I appreciate you stopping by 
and 
Thanks to Pam 
for inviting me over.

Hugs to all!

WILD CARD WITH LISA/HELLO

Happy Tuesday to all

 We are presenting today our take on the 
Hello Card, #27 in our project. 
You can find this card on page #58 of the Wild Card booklet

I made two completely different cards for this #27 and I decided to post this one. Do not be alarmed about the darker colors used here. I still love my bright side, lol

My Hello Card
5 inches
Ok...how do you like it? I used three layers, yes...you heard right, lol for the top of the card. I bent the phone cord a bit as you can see to give it more of a realistic look. I MESSED UP the envelope so I cut the top part and used my rounded Fiskars paper punch and punched a half circle. Everything was inked and for first time I used a thin bristled brush I had like forever and inked every little cranny on the card, lol. Loved it! I will take a pic of this brush later on and edit this post to show it because if you like to ink like me, you are going to want one too. This brush worked perfect for me, lol.

Ok...I have to get to Lisa's card here and stop talking :)

Lisa's Hello Card
Hehehe...almost the same colors.
You have to believe me when I say we do not plan these cards ahead. We do not get to see them until they are uploaded on PB ready for posting. It is a mere coincidence.
Love her take on the phone and the orange I love right there on that beautiful flower.


Well...we hope you enjoyed one more Wild Card with Lisa

ETA
to add the Bristle Brush I used:
 The brush has written on gold:

5 ROYAL WHITE BRISTLE

Please, do not ask me where I got it because I have this brush forever
and you know brain do not work too good lately :)
