As they begin to wake (early Sunday morning)

As they begin to wake (early Sunday morning)

two of my friends on the main land of Australia.

They find surprises on there doorstep.

(they thought that i was back in Victoria , having 

left Victoria and move to Tasmania 5 months ago)

My husband was over there so he delieved them.

Here is what they found on there door step .

Using make the cut and ZING

 

 They are paterns from SVGCUTS inported to 

Make the Cut and cut on my ZING

 First one is done using the circle patterned card stock

 And this Second one is done with a retangle  coloured 

pattern card stock

 I shrunk the pattern by nearly half  of the original size

 If you live in Australia and New Zealand 

and wondering where you can get a

Zing then SKAT KATZ is the place to find them

From Camera to Drawing (Isn't he all grown up now?)

I had a fun time this week  with adventure of turning 

a photo of my son to a drawing on the ZING.

Although it was not an easy task , it was fun learning .

LETs BEGIN

From Camera

Into GIMP (photo editor paint program)

Into Inkscape

Into Make the CUT

Into the ZING to draw

OK let me say  this is my first time at this and

 I don't know if using 5 programs was the 

 way to do it but I am happy with the first try

Planting sunflowers

Here today to show a card with the words around the edge

I used to make lots of these but have not made  many for a 

while. The stamps are  Alota Rubber Stamp HERE and HERE

and the card was cut using the ZING

Completed calender

I said a week ago I was going to show the completed

calender (except life got in the way )

So here is the completed calander

"Time Flies" (correction "Time (butter) Flies")

I made this with wood stretched artist canvas 

for a freind .

(she was telling a story about a clock she use to 

have that was specially made for her with the 

words "time flies"  and flies all around it ) since i

know she loves butterflies i thought i would make

Her a similar one except  i added the word butter

to the flies (look closely)

The butterfly flies around on the seconds hand.

Took the flowers round the side of the canvas

This is the box i put it in to give to her

3D Book card Butterfles PLUS

The Butterfly book I showed on my blog the other day 

was a proto type, for this card/book 

I made this one for a good friend of mine 

Thing about this book card is I added a clock

mechanism

So the time and battery can be changed 

I added a hidden passage in the back cover

Desk calenders (for the men)

Back today to show the other thin 

I made for the men. This time i did 

a desk calender  and the robot 

is on an action wobble

Metal art pen holders ( for the men)

To go with the cards I made the boys I also made

them pen holders for the desks

Using robotz and everyday cricut cartridges

and metal tape work

Metal art cards for the men

As I have mentioned many times before 

I do love using the metal tape, So when i needed

three cards for three friends for this weekend I knew straight away

what i wanted to make. I used robots party cartridge for the 

robot and wording   and tim holtz edge die for the base card
