Cubby Hole CCTV DT Project..."Three Smiles"

As DT member on Carol's Collaborative Creative Team of Volunteers (aka CCTVs) my latest remit was to produce three products using the Hero Arts "Three Smiles" stamp.  Pop along to the CCTV blog, there is lots of inspiration going on there and next week you will get to see Carol's customers showing March's theme which was Secret Garden.

I am entering the box into Moving along with the Times Challenge Blog who would like to see more than one fold (but not an easel card).  My box has been made with Bazzill card,  sections of the Three Smiles stamp along with travel associated stamps upon white card which has been coloured with distress inks, Worn Lipstick and Faded Jeans.  The flowers have been punched using the remainder of the Bazzill card.



The card is A5 in size and I have used a textured card for the four rectangles, two of which have been passed through the Cuttlebug and slightly sanded. The Three Smiles stamp has been stamped onto very thick card in brown Stazon and then triple embossed to give an enamel tile look.


To finish I have made a trio of ATCs,  I punched flowers into the backing paper.  The ATC backs where the punched flowers are visible were embossed.  The words Amore were from some Italian biscuits from good old Marks & Spencer. I used machine stitching to adhere these to the ATCS to the backing paper.  The ladies were separated, cut out and coloured with crystal lacquers.



Simon Says Stamp & Show - Show a Hat okay I know I am technically showing three but though it may just pass, the card shows this challenge best as the description of the hats are under the three smiles.  ......

Sir Stampalot who would like to see ladies and fashion......
Hope everyone enjoys Mothering Sunday here in the UK, the sun is shining in this part of the world and I have just hung my washing out and enjoying the peace and quiet in my house - dh at work, three offspring still in bed - so no breakfast in bed for me!  Though if that had happended I would have thought the world had stopped spinning heheh!
