Melly Art Creates All the Things

                         For this layout i used another of the patchwork cut files from Jenny Wren Cutfiles., turned it to look like honeycomb, and combined it with "Bee Happy" from Doodlebug Designs. I used photos of one of my dogs, and kept the embellishments simple to show as much of the cut file as possible. Using some ephemera from the collection and some white flowers with button centers, making some extra bees with the stand alone die set, and finally to finish it off, adding some nuvo drops and mini epoxy flair.                                         Below are some close ups. Thanks for stopping by!                

                          This weeks "better together" set is Burger and Fries!                       For these used the following colors from CutCardstock.com - Desert Storm, Sandcastle, gold, yellow jacket, black, Mars, Fairway, Bronze, and white.   I enhanced them some using Catrherine Pooler inks, a white pen, chalk, and some nuvo drops.                      Stop back next week for another "better together" set.                                                                      Thanks for stopping by..

    Happy Friday!   I'm starting a cute little series the next few weeks, called "Better Together!" from marjorieanndesigns.com  First up is Benny and Belinda Hotdog and Mustard.  I thought these were the cutest little sets of bears!  and Im not a "bear" person.  But these were too cute i had to create them.. I used cardstock from cutcardstock.com - Desert Storm, Mars, Yellow jacket, cougar white, and black.  adding some chalk for some rosey cheeks and inking on the bun and the bears themselves.  Join me next week for another "Better Together" set.                                                                                                    ...

    This set was originally made with sunflowers, but for me sunflowers are more august/September.. so I may end up making them again.. but for now i made them as Daisys.. and i love how they turned out.   I creating these i used cardstock from cutcardstock.com - dessert storm, hot fudge, cougar white, gold, black, sand castle, light yellow, and fairway. Using some chalk to rosey her cheeks.  Below are some closeups.                                                    Thank you for stopping by!  Happy Crafting.  

Good Morning... Today I am sharing a Layout for TwilightCraftsuk using the Daisy Lace file from JennyWrenCutfles.  I used the Butterfly Kisses collection from Doodlebug Designs.  One of my favorite companies!  I used some pale yellow cardstock to cut the file on, i love the contrast of it with the yellows in the collection.  I used designs from the 6x8 pad to back each daisy, alternating the color of the flower centers between 2 shades of pink, i love pinks and yellows together.  I didnt do much else to the cutfile itself, i wanted the yellow to pop against the white.  I used a sheet from the pad as well and fussy cut my title out, along with some of the subtitle phrases.  I used the ephemera packs to embellish, then finished the layout with some sequins and nuvo drops.  Below are some closeups...                                   ...

              Happy June!!  For June I decided to create an entire set of Die Cuts from Marjorie Ann Designs.   I thought these turtles were the cutest!  And theres nothing i love more than sitting down and paper piecing die cuts together.  Its relaxing to me.. sometimes a little frustrating if the pieces are too little, but relaxing for the most part.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I did creating them.  They have been embellished with nuvo drops and glossy accents, with some chalk for those rosy cheeks.  Below are closeups of each die cut.                                                                                         ...
