goofy things by Diane Zechman

Hello Ai friends and happy Monday!
 
Today I am sharing a card using a few "oldies but goodies" Ai stamps... 1933- Lillie, 1266- Falling Leaves, and 2637- Goofy Things. I've had this card in mind for a while and wanted to create it last fall but time slipped away so I was sure to make it this year!
 
Who can resist jumping in a pile of leaves?
 
 
To make it even more fun, I adhered Lillie with a Mini Action Wobble!  Her skirt was paper pieced with a scrap from Echo Park's - The Story of Fall pad.
 

The spring brings Lillie to life!
 

Have a great Monday and… happy stamping!

Jump For Joy!

Hi Ai Fans!
Oh My Goodness!!!! Can't you just feel the fun spirit in "Lillie" (item#1933)? She looks like she would be a real energetic character that would keep you on your toes! I met lots of "Lillies" when I worked in Long Term Care and they could sure make your day with their spirited souls!
This paper is from the Simple Stories Bloom and Grow 6x6 collection and made paper piecing Lillie's pants so much fun! The sentiment is called "Goofy Things"! Perfect saying to go with how I perceive Lillie's outlook on life to be!
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, E21, R20
Hair: C1, C2, C4
Top: Y23, Y26, Y32
Shoes: Y23, Y26, YG61, YG63
Necklace: Gold Wink of Stella

Happy Stamping

You know that stamp you bought recently for that one project you haven't made yet...? Well now's the perfect chance to use it! This challenge is about using your newest stamp in a creation! Need some inspiration? Check out what Diane is up to with her latest demo!

Hello Ai friends!
This week's challenge is "In With The New" (use your newest stamp) and I am sharing a project I made with one of the NEW Ai stamps in your local AC Moore store called Bigger Cake (PS0920). This lady's smile is infectious...and don't you love that cake??



Instead of a card I made a little Snack Size Hershey's Pouch.  How fun would this be to give to a friend?  It's super easy to make...let's get started!
First, start with a 3 1/2 x 7 5/8 inch piece of cardstock.  Score the length @ 1/2, 3 3/4, and 4 inches.  Then cut or punch an opening (on the end with the first 1/2" score mark) to slip the candy in when finished.  (I kept my opening to the left but you can center it.)  See photo below.
 

Add patterned papers or emboss... however you want to decorate it.



Fold and adhere the 1/2" scored section at the top with strong tape.  Add your image and sentiment.  I colored her with Copics and fussy cut her out.  To finish, I added a tiny bow.

Slip in some chocolate, a pack of gum, or whatever fits!


Now it's your turn to make a card or project with your newest stamps and join us in the In With The New Challenge!
Happy stamping!
