Wine bottle tag by Crystal


Hello Ai fans !!
It's Crystal here and today I am making a tag for a wine bottle using Monique U2828 and grape cluster # 2827.
Sometimes to celebrate birthday's I will give a bottle of wine to my friends , so today I want to show you how I made this cute tag . Who wouldn't love to get this as part of their gift ?

For the base of my tag I am using a Prima tag , they are total awesome and thick and perfect for my base , it will allow me to ink up and water splatter and heat dry and will come out just perfect.I am using Time Holtz stains to get the color blotches

I used the grape cluster to stamp along the left side of tag then I colored the grape with copic markers and then added glossy accents to the grapes to make them come alive

I used the copper brilliance ink to randomly add copper shimmer throughout the tag , for the bow I used green tulle and black eyelash yarn , I fold both tulle and yarn in half and poke thru the hole in the front , this will give me a loop to put over the neck of the wine bottle ,then tie in a bow . I added flourishes from TH die and a 4"doily I aged , the words (It's your Day ) are cute from a cuttlebug A2 birthday die , roses are hand-made from a scallop punch, the black flourish is a MFT die . these are so much fun to make and a great WOW presentation ...

Thanks for stopping in ,I hope you leave with a little crafty inspiration : )  Please come back tomorrow for more inspiration for our Simple Sentiments challenge

Beanie Whoot Set by Karen Day

Hello Ai fans!
I have another sweet little owl card for you today, using the Beanie Whoot Set (sku#4127).  His cute beanie hat made me think "soft & fuzzy", so I went for soft colours and a little bit of sparkle on my card:
I love using clear buttons on my creations, so I made a bit of a bubbly-looking trail with them, and I added some glitter to the pom-poms on his hat to pick up the sparkle in the ribbon.  I stitched around each of the panels on my sewing machine with cream thread before assembling my card:
There are three sayings that come in the Beanie Whoot Set - I chose this one that will work for a number of different occassions:
Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Happy Birthday "Lawn Ranger" by Kerry Kung

Hello Ai friends and happy Monday to you!

I have a super fun card using one of my favorite Ai people called Lawn Ranger (SKU# 4102).  


For my card, I used pan pastel to create the blue background, then I added some grass using a die cut.  And I placed this super cool Lawn Ranger in between and popped him with foam dots.  


Hope you like it and have a great day!
