A thank you from Jean.

Hello Ai fans!  

Click HERE for the OWH Memorial Day Blog Hop!

I'm sharing a card featuring Jean (SKU# T3476) using the Grad card kit (SKU#4304).

I used the sketch #161 from Operation Write Home.

I colored the Jean with copic markers, fuzzy cut her out, adhered with some foam dots.  I also added a couple wooden button from GF Card Kit 1 or Kit 2 (SKU#4302 or SKU#4303) and a wooden sentiment.

I hope you like you and have a great day!

In The Tub

Hello Ai Fans! 
This week I'm hanging out with Girlfriends in the tub.

This card features images from the In the Tub set of 4 (Sku#3570). I colored the girls with Copic markers and used a multiliner pen to add some details to bathing suit top and earrings.   These 'Sisters' are full of life and so much fun to color!

I used  glitter pens to add a little bling in spots and layered some of the fabulous papers from GF Card Kit 2 (Sku#4303). I also used embellishments from the kit.

On the inside, I added design paper and stamped a sentiment from the set.

Come back tomorrow to see what awesome project Crystal has to share!

Thanks for visiting!

Take care and STAY POSITIVE!

Pop Ups!!!

Hello Ai Fans!!!

Its me Piali here...today I'll be sharing a sneak peek of New Ai product.

As you know our current Ai challenge is " Layer It Up" , I'll share a card with lots of layers.

Ok! What is this ???

Its called as Ai PopUps. 

Yep! Its a pre-colored Decoupage sheet of new release Girlfriends set.

The sheet comes with direction and images are label/numbered for easy understanding.

Step #1: Pop out the images out the sheet...super easy to do !!!

Step #2: Its optional...but I like to do it.

Just snip the little cardstock tag like things around the images to give a clean finished look.

 Now the fun begins....

Step #3: start layering the images.

 For the first layer (which is usually flat) I use liquid adhesive/ tape runner. 

Step #4: keep adding the numbered layers using foam adhesive.

In four super easy steps your amazing card is complete.

I used the cardstocks from the Girlfriends Card kit #1.

Its AWESOME for any crafters...of any skill level ..or any age.

My younger daughter is 7 , she loves Ai images and she wishes to color them like me someday, I'm sure Ai popups will make her very happy...and she will create like a pro.

 

Look at amazing layers...

Gives lot of dimension to the card... like 3D effect!!!!

Now you must be wondering where or when can you get them....

Pop Ups will be soon available in Ai store...you can also get them in retail stores now.

Before I end my post I would like to share another lovely card with you all...

A clean and simple card using the new released Girlfriends set- "Stayin A Float"

Super cute image.

I colored the image with Inktense pencils and water brush.

Love the sentiment.

Hope you liked these cards!!!
