Melly Art Creates All the Things

 I finished the final 3 “hidden doors” Layle Concur shared at this event.  This was one of my favorites!  I can’t wait to create more of these in my mini albums, and maybe even try them in my regular albums.  How fun they would be!  Oh the possibilities. So this is a Dutch Oven door.  Two separate doors that open,   This particular one I made cohesive, but on another one thy could be very different when opened.... These were so fun, adding those stamped images to these, gave it the perfect touch.   I love all things I can find with Dachshunds on it.  Its so hard to find, so when you do, you buy them!   They turned out too cute with the Alcohol markers!  I tried to get them similar to my puppies, take some practice, but I will keep trying and get there at some point. They're still adorable!   The Waterfall Doors.  I've used something similar to this making cards.  However I never thought to use it in an ablu...

  Hello!   One of my favorite things to scrapbook are my nieces and nephews!   Every year, I take my sisters yearly family photo.  It always so much fun, I have to take literally 450 pictures just to get one good one, cause they are so goofy!  Totally worth it though, cause while she is taking their individual photos, I get to spend time with them.  I usually get photos with all of them, but as they get older, they don’t want any more pictures than the absolutely have to have taken.  However, my darling niece Arianna is never too old to get her taken with Aunt Melly.  I treasure these photos.  And this particular layout is getting hung on my wall!  I used the amazing sunburst stencil from Redefined Kreative as a template for this, and of course epoxy flair from the fabulous ScrappinHappy Studio , and sequins from the amazing SpiegelMom Scraps !      Full details can be found on the CutCardstock Blog on how I created this...

  Thank you all so much for following along with us today!   So far you should have been too the CutCardstock Blog, Niki, and came from Teri!  At the bottom of my post will be the links for the next blog on your journey!      So for this blog hop I decided to step out of my comfort zone of Scrapbook pages and wall decor and try my hand at a card!  I do enjoy sending cards with my “Melly Art” pieces and I also love to send cards to friends and family to cheer them.  I’m going to briefly show you what I did and a few steps on how I did it!   Here is what I came up with.  One of my favorite stamp sets and embossing folder, with some distress oxide, coloring, sequins, and nuvo.  Card making isn’t my greatest creative outlet, but I was happy with this one.  I must have been channeling my inner “Card Ninja” Sister ❤️ Starting with Cougar White, and Neenah white cardstock, square dies, my favorite fall stamps, and my fall colors of di...
