DT: Medical Personal Appreciation Bookmarks

 


 Dear Scrappers,


This is my post for Craftwell:
For this post, I made a bunch of bookmarks to thank the nurses and medical personnel, who helped me with the health screenings at school.


Here are some closer pictures to show the different bookmarks I made:






Materials:


I used my SNAP to cut the cute little frontline heroes, I stamped before. I used leftover card stocks in white, black and blue to cutout the mats and the bookmarks bases. I stamped the sentiments on the mats, the heroes or cute designs I punched out colorful mats. Later, I added some colors with gel glitter pens. I assembled the bookmarks, fussy cutting the cute little patient bears, and added some twine at the end:


I stamped my name using Distress Oxides by TH in the back:


Here is how I displayed the bookmarks for the medical personell:




I hope you enjoyed my quick and easy project and please make sure to visit  Craftwell for more inspiration and to follow me.

Enjoy the cooler days,

DT: Christmas Canvases

 





 Dear Scrappers,


This is my post for Craftwell:
For this post, I made three Christmas Canvases which was sold at our AHG troop booth in our first Christmas Bazaar for our parish.

Here are some pictures of the details for each canvas:

1st:

Each canvas have these main components:

1. Stencil background for the already painted canvas- I used stencils and glitter / glue (Nuvo dots, FSJ glitter and decofoil glue pen for the first canvas, and IZink Diamonds glitter paints for the third canvas) or Tattered Angel shimmer sprays for the second canvas.

2. a punched border/ horizontal strip- I used Martha Stuart punch around the page punches for snowflakes and ornaments. (lower right corner)

3. a fussy cut vertical strip, showing the rough part of the paper, which I distressed with metallic inks. (upper right corner)

4. two printed mats. Top one 5x7 in. with faux stitching around the border. Lower mat, a little bit bigger, with drie embossing and distressing with ink. (Left upper corner).

5. a cloth pin with wooden embellistment on top to pin a Christmas card or picture (from Dollar Tree, picture shown bellow). I added some glitter for more texture. (left lower corner).

6. Big Title: 
1st Canvas: glitter die cut sentiments (CTMH), digital image in a die cut frame (Tim Holtz die)
2nd canvas: sentiment sticker (CTMH)
3rd. canvas: Stamped sentiment and thin cut (CTMH) and stamped menger image/ thin cut (CTMH) and tag (tattered lace die).

7. and a big 3D embellistment: 
1st. canvas: gliter felt snowflake
2nd. canvas: big glitter bows die cuts with brad (Heartfelt Creation dies, CTMH brad) and glitter gift die cut (CTMH).
3rd. canvas: Nativity layered die cut (Spellbinders dies).

I cut all the die cuts with my SNAP and used these other materials and tools:

Craftwell DT: Thank You Tags and Bookmarks

 



 Dear Scrappers,


This is my post for Craftwell:
For this post, I made "thank you" tags to go with bookmarks, I bought in Santa Fe, and handsanitizers for the staff at the school for Thanksgiving.

Here a picture showing the back of the tag and bookmark:


To make the tags, I used my SNAP and the Art Studio Botanical dies. For the back I punched some tags and either stamped them with Simon Says Stamp "Thank You" and StanzOn inks, or I layered them with die cut sentiments using the Garphic 45 dies:


I made more than 50 tags, using mostly paper scraps for the die cuts. 


I had some fun making different combinations with the die cuts. Here are some examples:


Some of my favorites:
