Creating with Custom flair

Published on June 10, 2015June 10, 2015 by carriebryant4 Comments

Carrie here to share with you some pretty fun projects I created using some custom flair that I ordered from #TheCraftyPickle.

Custom flair is amazing because you can personalize any crafty project you want to create.


This is a set I ordered for my Daughter Graduation

I previously shared this Amazing card I created for her, but It’s worth sharing again. She loved that it was personalized just for her.

For my next project I used some of the custom flair to personalize her Senior portrait and Announcement that I displayed at her Graduation Party.

And lastly, I will soon be receiving another personalized set to use when documenting my daughters GRAD Night at Disneyland. I have not gotten this set yet, but as soon as I do, I will share with you my new creations.

This has got to be the cutest set I have received so far!

So Be sure to pop on over to TheCraftyPickle shop and order your own custom flair to personalize any of your upcoming crafty projects. And Taniesa is now offering a create your own flair option where you can turn your own art work into a one of a kind button embellishment.

Thanks for stopping by today

Happy Scrappin’

Hi Happy Crafty Friends!!!

It is finally Friday! We made it! I dont know about you but this week was a long one and I am ready for the weekend and some scrappy time!

Today designer, Stephanie, has TWO projects to share with you using TCP flair. I hope you love her projects as much as I do, Take a look!

_________________________________________________________________________

I have two projects to share today featuring flair from The Crafty Pickle . The first one is a card that I made for my daughter who is trying out for her school gymnastics team this week! She was nervous & pretty certain that she wouldn’t make the team, so I wanted to make her a card to give her a little extra encouragement!!

I started with this sketch from Cardabilities:

I used my Martha Stewart punch to create the branches in the background. The “shine” flair button is from TCP & can be found here .

I love the combination of colors & textures here! Hope she enjoys the cad too (even if she doesn’t make the team!) I will always be her biggest fan, regardless!

My next project is a layout that started with sketch from Sketchabilities:

I just love a good sketch & this one really caught my eye! Sketchabilities is also teaming up with the challenge site, White With One for this sketch challenge. You are to use white & the color “placid blue”. Here is my page:

I used scrap papers from my stash (I am on a roll using them up nowadays!) and the flair here is also from The Crafty Pickle.

The “snapshots” flair is from their adorable Bright Everyday set. This set comes with 6 buttons that are prefect for any layout, card or PL spread!

The “shake your flakes” flair button comes by itself & is the perfect embellishment for all your winter projects!! It’s too cute!

I added in other embellishments to complete my page and give it more dimension from Elle’s Studio, Pink Paislee, October Afternoon & Studio Calico.

Thanks for visiting on this Friday!

~Stephanie

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Published on January 8, 2015January 8, 2015 by Taniesa4 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends!

Today designer, Joann is sharing an adorable birthday card she made for her mom. Check it out!

Hi! I’m so happy that you have stopped by!

Today I am sharing a birthday card with you…

As I mentioned in one of my previous post, I recently purchased the CTMH Artbooking Cricut collection and one of the many reasons was the overlay images. I love stencils and modeling paste and thought that it would be fun to be able to create some of my own stencils and size them to whichever size I wanted.

Here is a look at how the image on page 53 turned out when I took some transparency and cut the image at 5 inches creating my own stencil…

I just placed my stencil on my card base and applied the modeling paste right on top. It was so easy and I was really happy with the results and the best thing is that I can reuse my stencil…woohoo! There are so many great images on this cartridge, I’m telling you, it’s a must have.

I took some watercolor paper and used my cricut and the Artbooking cartridge to cut the circle swirl image from pg 55, the tag from pg 83, and the happy birthday image from pg 86. I stamped a butterfly image using the CTMH Sweet Moments stamp set on my tag with some white embossing powder. I then used CTMH Inks Lagoon and Cotton Candy, to water-color my images by adding some ink on a clear block and then taking some water and a brush to pick up the color and adding it to my images creating a ombre look.

To finish off my card I added a beautiful flair from the Family Themed Flair. These are so nice and could be used to personalize any card or project for your loved one.

Hope you enjoyed and thanks again for stopping by and as always don’t forget to check out TCP Etsy shop to pick up some awesome flair. There are tons of great new items in the store!

Supplies used:

TCP Family Themed Flair

CTMH Artbooking Cartridge

CTMH Sweet Moments stamp set

CTMH Lagoon Ink

CTMH Cotton Candy Ink

Thanks Joann! I love the texture the modeling paste gives to the card and a great use of flair too!

Happy Crafting,

December Daily update with Treasa!

Published on December 9, 2014December 9, 2014 by Taniesa3 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends!

Treasa has been working on her December Daily and it is ADORABLE! Check out her progress!

Hi there, today I wanted to share a few cards I made for my December Daily. First up I wanted to share how I was documenting my days of the month in my album.

As soon as I seen these flair in The Crafty Pickle shop I knew I had to use them in my album. I love the silver glitter and the fun font. These Elegant December flair add the perfect touch to my pages even with some sparkle.

I also made some cards to add in my album using more of the fabulous flair found in The Crafty Pickle. First up is the card I made to document the return of our Elf on the Shelf Elvis Parsley. The Personalized Elf flairs are perfect and I love how you can get them personalized with your elf’s name.

Up next is a card that was inspired by my album that I am suing for my December Daily. I totally fell in love with the burlap and rustic look of it. So I decided to make a card using burlap and one of the flair badges from the December button flair set.

And lastly, I had to make a card to document my love of Starbucks red cups. These red cup flair buttons was a special request and I think they turned out fabulous.

I have to say that I am loving all the flair buttons that I have received from The Crafty Pickle and how I can personalize my album and cards. It makes this album so much more special. Please visit The Crafty Pickle and remember that Taniesa takes special orders, so if you don’t see it in the store, send her a message.

Don’t forget to stop by The Crafty Pickle for me fabulous and creative ideas.

Thanks Treasa! I love everything about your album so far and look forward to seeing the finished project!!!Happy Crafting!

So before I dive head first into the Christmas season, I made some birthday cards. Both feature flair & sequins from The Crafty Pickle.

I used the Birthday button flair set & the Winter Sequins mix for both of my cards.

For my second card, I started with sketch #111 fromCardabilities and made Leah’s birthday card

I love the shimmer of this “Happy Birthday” flair! It’s great for a 12 year-old girl!!

Bring on the Polar Bears!

Published on November 20, 2014November 20, 2014 by Taniesa3 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Today, design team member Julie has some great inspiration using the adorable Polar Bear Holiday stamp set from Close To My Heart! Take a look!

Hello!

Today had to show a series of CAS-cards that I made for The Crafty Pickle .

Next will be a lot of pictures and a little bit of English text, which gives me difficulty, still) Happy viewing and winter CAS-inspiration!

***

Hello!

Today I want to show you my winter card series with the cutest polar bears!

I USED the Polar Bear Holiday Stamp set from Close To My Heart Shop

These stamps are very good and these bears are absolutely gorgeous!

For my first card I used the bear on the sledge. I coloured the scarf with watercolor pencils, stamped the sentiment inside of the card and made a round window to see it. I love the beautiful golden stars – it’s a perfect little accent.

For the second card I made the background using the snowflake stamp from the set. Little tiny snowflake looks great! I also create the snowdrifts and embossed it. I think that the bear wearing hood is my favorite!

And my third card has silver heat embossing. Snowflakes looks very beautiful, especially in the sunshine. Here, I coloured the bear’s sweaters using Distress Ink and water.
