Julie Nutting tags

Yesterday I had gotten some new Julie Nutting goodness, so I had a play with them. I made these 2 tags. Started with them late last night and finished them this morning.

I am not a tag maker. This was really out of my zone. But they were fun to do. 

Doll case

Last month I was watching some Youtube Videos and saw Bona video on making a doll case for the Julie Nutting mix media girls. Like the Barbie doll cases. I thought it was so cute. My cousin's wife is having their 4th baby, but its their first girl. Because of that my other cousin (his sister) decided to throw a baby shower so she can get some girl stuff. When I saw Bona's video of this doll case I had to make it for her.

The case is the only 12x12 baby baby paper I have. Little Darlings by Graphic 45. Instead of using a paper for the handle I used fabric that was dyed that I was given frrom Lynn in the first Secret Sister box swap.

I then took some scrap Kraft cardstock to make the faux dressers and shelf. 

The paper I used for this dresser is from My Minds Eye Lime Twist line Life of the Party. The faux drawers is DCWV Glam Rock which was scrap. The "pulls" on the drawers are pearls (yes I knw one pearl is missing when I took the picture. It was glued back on after. ) from Wild Orchid crafts. The lace draping the shelf and the white cording(which was covering a boo boo)were a couple of the things that was given to me in a RAK from Rose.  I also used a light bulb from Prima. The flowers I used were also from Wild Orchid Crafts. The "love" and Smile are wood pieces from Prima. I painted those Magenta with acrylic paint by Blick's. I used hot glue to glue them on. The Julie Butting girl I stamped on  scrap of My Minds eye paper. Her dress was from scraps of pattern paper. I did paint her hair red.

The dresser on the other side I used scraps from Fab Scraps from when I made a mini album with (also another baby gift). I used both sides of the paper. One side was the dresser and the other was the "drawers" again I used Wild orchid crafts pearls for the drawer pulls and their flowers. I orginaly was going to have some dresses cut  out and put them in the closet somehow. but then I remembered I had a little mirror that I thought would look cute for this. So I went downstairs to hunt it down. As you know we are selling the house (want to buy it? huh huh.) and sometime this spring we will be have a moving sale So I empty my desk thats downstairs because we are going to sell it. So the stuff that was in the drawers are now in boxes. So I had to dig boxes and storage containers and never found the mirror. But I did find a frame that I got at Michael's. I took the backing off and made a mirror with some aluminium tape. I glossy accented it to the box. I did try to use hot glue, but the glue was cooled by the time I went to put in the case. When I glued it to the case the frame cracked so I glued 3 WOC flowers to cover that up.

The baby shower was Saturday and everyone loved it. :)

Party like a rock star!

I made this birthday card for a friend of mine who's birthday is comeing up soon.

I took some of the scraps I had from the Glam Rock stack by DCWV and punched squares with the EK Success 7/8 square punch. I then glued them down with Helmar Craft and Hobby PVA glue on a separate piece of black Recollection cardstock cut a quarter inch smaller than the black card base(also by Recollections).

I then took one of my Julie Nutting girls that I had already had made(made a bunch of them when I got them.) She is dressed with some scraps of Rock Star stack from DCWV. I backed her on black card stock scrap and cut her out and glued her to the card.(I did at first pop dotted her to the card, but decied to tape and glue her down because I was mailing it.

The inside of the card I used some more scraps of the Glam Rock stack and cut a piece of white card stock that is a scrap to size. taped it down. I printed the sentiment that I found online. I then added some stickopomus stickers from my stash. The sentiment says :
