Whew!! Back at school and we survived - AND my first DT Creations

!!! Ok...so my little bunnikins are back at school (yay! BUT geez I miss having them around...as for how QUIET the house is....kind of spooky...) and I finally have the time to blog - sort of!!! (back at school means I am back at school too LOL)...

So here it is...I would like to share some cards I made as part of the DT for My2Angels...V-day cards... nothing says I Love You quite like a card you have slaved over...

I used some chipboard butterflies (you can find some gorgeous ones HERE in Tracy's store My2Angels) which I inked with red chalk ink. I embossed them using a Cuttlebug Script folder, then I inked lightly with black chalk ink to highlight the embossing. The heart cutout was first painted with red acrylic paint, then daubed over with white acrylic and finished with a Tim Holtz rock candy crackle finish...(where can I get this, you say...? Hmmmm a little birdy told me my favourite online scrap store may have this coming in soon...stay tuned...starts with MY and ends with ANGELS and has a 2 in it somewhere...)

The word LOVE and the heart are Buzz and Bloom chipboard shapes from the Be Mine set. The papers are from Making Memories Mistletoe Pattern (Yes, I used a CHRISTMAS PAPER - but, it WORKED!!) that I cut using a Martha Stewart border punch. The ribbon is a gorgeous black velvet with silicon swirls that was just divine to use.

I used a LOVE shape from the Buzz and Bloom - Be Mine chipboard set from My2Angels and inked it then coated it with dimensional magic. I distressed some gorgeous papers from Carolee's Creations Adorn It XOXO and Making Memories Mistletoe Pattern Stripe paper (seriously good papers and you don't have to do Christmas with it!!!) I love these papers with a choice of pattern - they are so versatile with todays style of scrapping. I finished it off with a heart from the Buzz and Bloom - Be Mine set that I inked with red ink then coated with dimensional magic, and added some gorgeous velvet ribbon from My2Angels Ribbons and Lace section.

I had so much fun with these cards and there is SO MUCH MORE from my kit that is still to come so stay tuned....
