House of Gilli Challenge 16: Dry or Wet Embossing

Hello Everyone,
 I know you will be needing some gift cardholders so here is one made with Graduation Gilli but I took her cap off and diploma out of her hand. Now she can be used for any occasion. I dry embossed the front oval and wet embossed the sentiment inside.

This holder was made with an A2 envelope scored in half. Cut the envelope flip down the score line and glue down the left side. Attach a piece of ribbon to the front before adding the panels. The right side is where you put the gift card. All the panels were covered with patterned paper cut at 4  by 2 1/2  Use a scrape piece to cover the left flap. Decorate how ever you like.
Enjoy and CRAFT ON!!

House of Gilli Challenge 12: Any Thing Goes

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to another House of Gilli Challenge.  I hope you are all trying to enjoy your summer as much as possible. I made my own version of a book marker for a friends daughter who loves pink. It has magnets in each half so they stay in the book.  She is very ill in a children's hospital and will be there for a long time. She loves when people read to her ,so I thought this would come  in handy. Can you guess what her favorite color is?  All girl I tell you. She also loves to swim so I thought Gilli Bloomers would suit her. Make sure you check out the new Gilli that were released at CHA they are soooo super awesome. Sorry about the lighting in my picture, my son stole my light.

Enjoy and CRAFT ON!!

House of Gilli Challenge 10:Ribbon and Bows

Hello Everyone,
 It's time for my take on the Challenge Ribbons and Bows, and boy did I have fun being creative. The first thing I decided was that I want to do some ribbon weaving, so I want to my ribbon bin. I picked out scraps of blue,green,white, and added pink for pop. I then decided I wanted to use a different type of sentiment and thats how I decided on how to use my Gilli Lady stamp found HERE. I stamped a pattern on all my dresses in color ink and then used a Copic marker color to complement the ink. I hope you enjoy and give it a try.
Enjoy and CRAFT ON!!

House of Gilli Challenge 9:Buttons

House of Gilli Challenge 7:Black and Any 1 Color

Hello Everyone,
It's time for another Challenge over at House of Gilli and I am the Hostess. I used Black and Teal on this awesome layout. I really am happy about how it turned out.

I did a lot of stamping and sewing and a little embossing.I used the Bloomers Gilli found HERE.  Just in case anyone is wondering that little circle label really is a shade of teal not green.(I promise) I hope you enjoy, and please join in on the fun at House of Gilli.

House Of Gilli Challenge 3: Pastels and Bling

Hello Everyone,
I get the pleasure of sharing my creation today.  I must admit, pastel was a challenge for me because I love bold and bright and intense colors, and bling. So I decided to do a little note pad for my daughters teacher.  We like to let her know that we appreciate all her hard work. I decided to use Bloomers Gilli, since summer is almost here, and 4 different colors of paper. Pink, aqua, lavender,and yellow and inked all the edges. I also used Spellbinders matching stamps on the bottom of each page. The book has 15 pages. Well enjoy and come play with us at the House of Gilli and check out my team mates work.

House Of Gilli Challenge 2: Go Green

Hello Everyone,
Welcome back to another House of Gilli Challenge. So, most of my friends know I adore the color green, but it has to be lime green.  Almost every craft tool I buy is in lime green.  In fact I will wait to buy sometimes with the hopes that it will be made in that color. With out further ado, here's Tee Shirt Gilli sporting her Sparkly lime green tee, and matching hair bows. This card is 5 1/2 square, a pretty nice size with lots of sewing. Come check out the Design teams work at House of Gilli and you can buy Gilli at StampingScraping.

House Of Gilli Challenge 1: RECIPE

Hello Everyone,
It's finally my turn to show you all the fun I had with my awesome Gilli stamps. I decided to make something other then a card, so I made this super cute candy bar holder.  I can't wait to give it to someone special. For the challenge you have to use 3 pattern papers,2 punches or die cuts,and 1 form of bling.  First and for most the Gilli I decided to showcased is called Bloomers. My 3 pattern papers are the red with hearts in the background, the pink with a tone on tone pattern, and the white with the pink pattern. My 2 punches are the felt flower,made from a circle nestibilities, and the MS border punch. My bling is I-Rock mirrors. Well I couldn't stop there so I did a matching card and put Gilli on the Card not the candy bar holder. Well that's all for now. I hope you come and check out the other Design Teams work at House of Gilli.

I put this card in the Copic Creations Challenge-warm colors
