Two More Guest Designers: Alicia Cross and Treasa Cimorose

Yesterday, I shared one guest designer, Kathy Piere, and her fabulous pocket card creations.

Here are two more for you today!

 

First up, the amazing Alicia Cross with her projects and what she had to say about each one:

 Alicia: This card was created with a piece from the Skylark My Reflections paper pack, it was so pretty on its own I didn't want to detract from the paper. I layered the tag
(from an offcut of the paper when I cut my card) in the corner with some gold glitter washi tape. I added glitter tape on the left as well as some chevron/arrow images from the LOL stamp set (A1159) stamped in Lagoon and Cashmere CTMH inks.

 Alicia: Using the three B&T patterned papers from the Skylark My reflections paper pack and one sheet from the Balloon Ride My Reflections paper pack, I stamped the hexagon outline image from the Honeycomb stamp set (#C1537) and cut each of them out. I stamped on both sides of each paper to get eight fun patterns. I laid out my design on white cardstock and adhered my hexagons along with a tiny strip of one of the patterned papers. I made a banner on white cardstock with the sentiment stamp from the same Honeycomb stamp set.

 Alicia: I created my own patterned paper on white cardstock using Honey CTMH ink and the honeycomb patterned hexagon from the Honeycomb stamp set (#C1537). I stamped the image a few more times in second generation with the same Honey ink for the raised hexagons. The bees and sentiment are from an old mini stamp set from CTMH.

I used a piece of light-grey gridded cardstock from my stash to create this card. I stamped all the fun icons and words from the LOL stamp set (A1159) all over my card, then stamped the speech bubble on white cardstock with the 'FRIEND' inside and added it with foam adhesive. I filled in the speech bubble with Liquid Glass for a shiny texture. -Alicia

 Alicia-This card started with a 3"x4" piece from one of the B&T patterned papers from the Skylark My reflections paper pack. I made the two little banners from another scrap of one of the Skylark papers and a scrap from one of the Balloon Ride papers, as well. I stamped the 'Tweet' sentiment from the LOL stamp set (A1159) in Cashmere and Sorbet CTMH inks.

 Alicia: I used some fun stamping techniques on this simple card. I started with Colonial White CTMH cardstock and used the 'Stamp Kissing' technique to add some patterns to the geotag stamp (from the LOL stamp set - A1159); I used the patterned hexagons from the Honeycomb stamp set (C1537) for the kissing. The heart image is from one of the stamp sets that is bundled with the CTMH Art Philosophy CriCut Collection; I stamped it off on scrap paper before doing the 'Rock & Roll' technique in a different ink color to give the edges the two-toned look. My sentiment is from the Chairs To You stamp set (D1456). I added some old CTMH tiny pearls to each geotag and in a few clusters to complete my card.

And next up is the equally fabulous, Treasa Cimorose.

Treasa got papers from me, as well as using the Make It From Your Heart, Vol. 2 as sketches for all her pocket scrapbooking cards!

 

 I actually used a card from a sketch from Make It from Your Heart volume 2 to make this card. I used papers from the Lollydoodle line and made and epoxy flair using EPIC from the awesome stamp set Reel Life Everyday Life (B1431). -Treasa

Treasa: I used a sketch from Make It from Your Heart volume 2 to make this card. I used papers from the Lollydoodle line and used the awesome stamp set Reel Life Everyday Life (B1431) to stamp the "hello today".

Treasa: This is another card I made using a sketch from Make It from Your Heart volume 2. This was my first time using CTMH stamps and I must tell you, they are absolutely fabulous. They stamp so crisp and adhere extremely well to acrylic blocks. For this card I used paper from the Skylark and Ivy Lane collections. I also used the Reel Life Everyday Life stamp set (B14131) How awesome is that reel?

Treasa-I used another sketch from the Make It from Your Heart volume 2 book. I used kraft cardstock as my base and used papers from the Timberline and Balloon Ride collections. I also used the arrows from the Reel Life Everyday Life stamp set (B1431)

 Treasa: I used a sketch from the Make It from Your Heart volume 2 book to make this card. I used papers from the Jubilee and Skylark collections. I also used the awesome honey comb stamp from the Reel Life Everyday Life stamp collection.

Treasa-Another card I made using a sketch from the Make It from Your Heart volume 2 book. I also used papers from Ivy Lane and Ariana collections. I also used the arrows from the Reel Life Everyday Life stamp set (B1431)
