Mother's Day Gift Card Holder - PKS Challenge 13::18

 

First I have to tell you, I made TOP 3 over at PKS for last week's sketch challenge...click HERE to see my entry that made Top 3. It was very exciting!!! 

 

This week.... It's all about Mom week! At least for me that is.  My first Mom project was inspired by  the Peachy Keen Challenge 13::18 3D Objects : Flowers.  

 





THE CHALLENGE

 

Peachy Keen Challenge 13-18 :: 3-D Objects :: Flowers

Create the 3-Dimensional project of your choice using flowers.

 

 

I've made a gift card holder - hope this classifies as 3D - The back ground is glittered card stock, and cut with MCT Gift Card Holder die.  I stamped I Love You! from PKS SOTM January 2013 Set.  I used small half pearls to take up space on the sides of the sentiment.

The Stitched Daisies are cut from MCT Stitched Daisy Die and cut on the paper pack by Teresa Collins Tell Your Story.  I made two cuts for each daisy and off set them for dimension. I used pop dots to add some depth...after all this is a 3D challenge so why not. 

 

In the middle of each daisy I added a face from the PKS SOTM April 2013 Set.  Added a little chalk to the cheeks and viola!  A Cutie-Patootie Gift Card Holder for Mom.

Peachy Keen Challenge 13-13 :: 3-D Objects :: Oh Baby!

THE CHALLENGE

Create a 3-D project pertaining to babies.

• Design must be new
• Design must be 3-Dimensional and have a baby theme.
• Link up by 04/03 - 11:59 pm EST

For my entry, I decided to make a gift card holder...you can never have too many of those around. Especially when you have friends and family asking you for some LOL 

 

My sweet baby is from the PKS stamp of the month PKSC-15 March 2013  Isn't she adorbs!  I used gelly roll pens to color in the eyes and the pacifier, then topped them off with glossy accents.  I used pink chalk for the cheeks and dotted freckles with white gelly roll pen. 

For her bonnet, I cut out the one layer and pop dotted it for dimension...it made it look like her head was inside the little bonnet with some shadow at her forehead. 

The gift card holder die is from MCT and the sentiment is also from MCT More Gift Card Sentiments.

There is still a little time to get your 3D OhBaby! project into the challenge. Click HERE
That's it for today, have a great rest of the week! --C



Key To My Heart

Hello Friends,
Today I'm sharing another version of a Valentine's Treat.

I used the MCT Gift Card Holder die for my base on red textured card stock. Then cut out a square of paper that had keys and locks on it and put it on the front.

 

 I cut the hear locket and key from the Indie Art Cartridge and tied them together with a bow using light pink sheer ribbon.  For added dimension I used a few pop dots.

 

The sweet treat inside, instead of a gift card, is a small Ghirardelli Chocolate. Yummy!!!
I used two sided tape to adhere the little package so it won't slide out.

 

Here's a side view.  I'm entering this little sweet treat into the 3 Girl Jam Challenge #11  - create a 3-D project using ribbon.  You have until the 14th to enter your project.  Click HERE for more info and to enter your 3-D project with ribbon.

 

That's it for today....more later. --C

Valentine Candy Bear

Today I'd like to share with you my 3-D project for Peachy Keen challenge 13-3  I almost didn't have time to do this...I totally skipped the part about 3-D and almost posted something else I'd been working on....oh well, it definitely won't go to waste.

Here are some more details about this challenge:
Create a 3D object of your choice using bears. The 3D object can be anything, as long as bears are included somewhere on the project.

Here's my entry

 The bear head and hands and the little hearts are from the PKS stamp of the month January 2013   I used gelly roll pens for the eyes then glazed them with glossy accents.  The bear is looking over the edge of the card....or that's how I wanted it to be.

The cutest font ever, is also from the January Set.  I use Stickles to glitter up the heart.  The label is cut from Cricut Craft Room Basics.  It's not seen real well in the picture, I also dusted the edges of the label with a light pink ink.

Now here's the fun part, CHOCOLATE inside!  I used the MCT gift card holder die. It holds this piece of chocolate perfectly!  I used a little two sided tape and it stayed secure inside the holder...that is of course, until you're ready to eat it! Then just simply pull the candy off the card holder.

I adhered the bear head to the back of the gift card holder. I used pop dots and covered just enough of the little flap with the chin of the bear, but not adhering it.  This way it gives a little when you bend it up to secure the bottom flap.  I also used pop dots for the hands and stuck them to the front flap.

 

I hope you enjoyed my post today and that you were inspired!

Have a great day!  --C
