Spotlight Artist Monday!

July 05, 2010 By: Pamela Category: 2-Guest Designers, Digital Images

Ohhhh, this month we have the oh so talented Stef Hughes, aka Glitterbabe as our guest rubbah artist!

She decided to surprise us all and use digital images for her share today…lol

a little about her:

Hi.  My name is Stef H.  you may have seen me in blogland where I am known as glitterbabe - sometimes, the lampshade lady!  Don’t matter.  I

Hello!! I'm Stef, aka Glitterbabe!

answer to both - lol.  i have been a crafter going on 10 years now and am still trying to figure out where the time has gone.  I was introduced to stamping back in 2001 when I was invited to my very first stampin up party.  And, as they say, the rest is history.  I am a retired legal assistant and married to a wonderful man going on 17 years.  I discovered blogging a little more than a year ago and, like stamping, the rest is history.  I have met the best people from all around the world thru crafting and blogging and many of whom I am proud to call friend.  I have definitely found my niche in life.  Oh, and I just love making people laugh.  I certainly hope I can put a smile on your face

Weekend Freebie!

July 03, 2010 By: Pamela Category: Card Art, Digital Images, Weekend Freebie

Another fun summer image!  Free til July 12.   Enjoy!

As you can see, I made a small change to the file from what you see here, in my sample, and what you will see on the download page. I decided it needed a line behind it to ground it more. I think you could easily add water and a sunset in the background now too. See what you think!

Appreciate a comment if you grab the freebie, here!

Hey There! I'm Michelle!

Hello, my name is Michelle Pearson, and I’m so excited for the opportunity to work with Fire Cracker Designs this month! I’m a SAHM of an 8 yo son and 3 yo daughter….married for 17 years to my best friend!  I’ve been playing with paper and ink for 16 years…my poor hubby didn’t know what he was in for when he let me go to my first D.O.T.S party….and then my first SU! party!!  Now I’m an equal opportunity paper crafter…I love making cards, be they stamped or digital!  I like to cook, garden and bike, though I sometimes run out of time to do them all!!! Blog link: www.inspirationblooms.blogspot.com/

Karli Miranda
My  (short) Bio:
I’m Karli Miranda. By day, I’m disguised as a mild mannered 3rd grade teacher. But by night, after my 2 boys are off to bed, I get to play— with markers, stamps, & paper! I love all kinds of papercrafting, but especially love cardmaking & paper crafts (boxes, gifts,  etc). Thanks so much for allowing me to play with your fab images! I’m so excited to create with them!
My Blog: www.craftingwithclass.blogspot.com

Details about her creations:

I’ve used the Grand Ol Flag digi stamp. I created 2 projects for 4th of July (which is almost here!) The first is a little star wand and the second is a twirly bird/ helicopter.  (I’m using both of these for a kid craft hour for our family get together that I’ve been asked to do -to keep the kids busy for an hour :)  I’ll post all the details on my blog Friday. I’ve created  little tutorials for both and a template so those will be on my blog. If you have any questions please let me know. (Karli’s blog link is in her bio above)

Weekend Freebie!

June 26, 2010 By: Pamela Category: Card Art, Other Art, Weekend Freebie

Here’s another Patriotic freebie for you! Inspired by my dh!! lol

You can get your download free until July 5th, right here!

Card art: Painted with Shimmerz collection: FireCracker For more fun, I added a metal star on top of the printed one, and used a Triart Marker flat tip to add color to the card edge.

Wish you could see the glimmer on this card, it’s gorgeous!

This second one I did giving a nod to our Military who have fought to make and keep us free!

I used Solar Gold from the 656 Twink set to color these stars. Copics and Triart for the rest of the bell, to create a camo look.

Our last lovely by Patty LaLatty!!

Patty used the digital image Buncha Daisies for this one. Isn’t this a WONDERFUL color palette? I think I need to just drop everything I’m doing, and make something with these colors….lol

Thanks Patty for guest designing this month with FCD digitals! It’s been a pleasure!
