Theme Day Thursday August 25, 2011 Imaginisce Happy Camper Paper

Welcome to this week's Theme Day Thursday. We ALL used the same papers to make such different projects.... I was in a feisty mood, so is my project.... You need a good sense of humor to see how 'feisty' it is at CAMP FEISTY :)


Here is Tink, hiding in her tent.... Hmm a mixed message here?!?!?
Like I said have a sense of humor today.....

Here is the page with her Banners that say Camp Feisty, I used Country Life 2" banners then camping critters for the tent at 6.5"
The words came from Give a Hoot cut at 3"

Here are the first stages of tink. I use the back image to put everything on. It has little score lines to help you line things up. Once you have your machine set to the size you want, put black paper on your mat and LOAD PAPER, then touch no other buttons except the actual image that you want to make.
Then press cut.... it will make you the perfect base to make any layered image with. This is very helpful.... not the Cricut KNOWS that you want all of the layers to be proportional... it automatically does this for you. Now if you want say her dress in a specific size, but NOT to fit proportionally, then you would turn real dial size on... An easy way to explaining this is... imagine Mickey mouse. When you set the dial size to 4" (or whatever number you pick) it knows what size you want your FINISHED project to be.... so it will make his shoes, shorts, face etc.... all proportional for a 4" finished mickey.... now if you wanted just mickeys shorts to be a finished size of 4" then turn REAL DIAL SIZE ON... this will then make the shorts or shoes or whatever to the finished size of 4".... I hope that makes sense... I know so many people who try to change the size of each item and have little success at getting it all to fit.... Hopefully this helps some of you.

Here is the Snow Marker I used for the fluff on Tink's shoes.

Before i removed my colored paper form the mat, I wanted to give it a variegated look, so I used 3 different colors of Brilliance and VersaMagic inks

I also wanted to do the same to the leaves, before I removed it form the mat.

You can see how I added some gold ink to the leaf part.... I wanted it to show through the little lines.

Here is it put together



I know there really is not much room for pictures, but I am going to do some
 more companion pages for this set.

Here is tink, before I add any layers... I like to use my gel pen to color in the little pieces that are to hard to place after they have been cut so small.

Here is a cut little 'funny" in response to Tink's little "Keep it Wild" quote

Camp Feisty, give a hoot at 2 1/2"




I used actually metal for the trash can, it is so cute in person!



Here is what they rest of the design team made to share today, all with the Happy Camper paper.


Ricki made this, so cute!
