Saturday Image Bonus 50

Yeah, 50 posts. It is hard to believe that I have enough to post 50 but I do. My collection has grown so large. I love to post my images and share them with all of you. So, I am constantly looking for new images. Thank you all for coming back week after week.

This week the images are from a Rimmel's almanac. I love these ladies. Each one is so unique. This must have been a giveaway with their makeup. It is from 1884.

As always feel free to use any image for your personal use and artwork only. Do not post the original images anywhere else on the net, but feel free to link anyone here. I ask that if you use one in your artwork that you link it back to this message so we can all enjoy it. Don't forget to enter for the blog candy in the 50th Saturday Image Bonus Celebration post.

Christmas Tag for Tag Your It

This is a tag for Tag Your It. A little early for Christmas. The image is from a Victorian Trade Card. The tree stamp is PSX. The words are Inkadinkadoo.

Birthday Card

The stamps are Obsession Impression and Kodomo stamps. I used Distress inks by Ranger to color.

Falling

OK, so like a dummy I fell down the steps in our house yesterday. I broke my fall with my hands so I just twisted my ankle really badly. Boy, does it hurt. I am not able to get around very well. I will try to get everything ready for tomorrow's 50th Saturday Image Bonus blog candy giveaway this evening. Hopefully with a little Advil I will be able to walk on it then. I wanted to gather the stuff and take some photos. There will be some great collage stuff.

Lots of new Stuff

I think I am addicted to gadgets. I just got new embossing folders and then today I picked up the cutest new Halloween border punches from Martha Stewart. The border punches are of slime and a picket fence. Of course I have to think of different ways to use them. This is a card I made using a new winter Cuttlebug embossing folder and I used the slime border to simulate melting snow.

Argyle Girl

I couldn't resist using my new argyle embossing folder with my cute flower girl stamp.

Playing with Alcohol Inks

Here are three different surfaces treated with Ranger Alcohol Inks. The first is a domino, second a clear glass pebble and the third is a white glass pebble. It is interesting to see them side by side. I love the faux marble look. The domino works great for the domino challenge at Saturday's Workout.

Card for Baby

We have a few friends who are having babies this year. Here is a card I did for one of them.

Bird Song

I made this for the song challenge at Dans Ma Maison. The stamps are Inkadinkadoo, Justrite Stamper, Plaid, Anna Griffin and Memory Box. I painted the background with 3 colors of Ranger paint dabbers. I picked up 9 of these at my local scrapbook store sale for a buck a piece. They dry quickly, so they were perfect for this project.

Saturday Image Bonus 49

OK. so I am getting close to fifty posts. You all have to check back next week for my exciting giveaway in honor of my 50th Saturday Image Bonus. There will be vintage magazines, lace, a stamp and whatever else I can find at the flea market this week. I will let you know all the details next week.

As promised here are more of the Jello images. The image are so much fun and many are quite funny. I was hesitant about a few of them. The advertising of this era would be considered a bit stereotypical in this day. I hope I do not offend anyone. What is sad, is how mainstream this thinking was, that it is part of a Jello ad. I left out part of one image that I thought was in poor taste.

Cuttlebug Combo Card

This is a card I made using four different embossing folders. The red is one of the new border embossing folders. For the green part of the card I used a new border embossing folder at the top and the bottom, then I embossed the middle. I was able to emboss only the middle by using a smaller acrylic plate for the top plate in the sandwich. This is the plate for the Sidekick. I believe you get two for $2.99 or less if there is a sale. Anyway these plates are great if you just want to emboss a small area. The cardstock is DCWV. I sanded the embossing to make the white core paper appear. I cut out the bottom of the green card following the design of the folder. The stamped image is from Outlines.

A Cuttlebug Christmas

I was just experimenting with my new Christmas Cuttlebug embossing folders and this is a card I designed. The paper is DCWV and when sanded you see the white core. I love the extra depth this gives the card.

More Cuttlebug Cuties

Here are two cards for new babies. I have used my new Cuttlebug argyle embossing folder for the background and new smaller border folders for accents borders. I sanded the DCWV paper to reveal the white core paper. The stamps are Studio G and Fiskars.

New Memory Box Stamp

I love this new Memory Box branch stamp. It is perfect for holiday cards. My local store was already out of the bird stamps so I improvised with some Inkadinkadoo stamps. I snow is Stickles.

Another peak

Here is another peak at one of my new stamps.

Cute Strawberry Box

Isn't this the cutest strawberry box? I got the pattern from from Ethel's blog. Ethel got the template from Mushi's blog. It was extremely simple to make.

Got My New Cuttlebug Folders

I got my new Cuttlebug folders. 14 different designs!!!! Here is a card I made last night.

The stamp is by Studio G and the leaves are Prima.

Crazy Hat

Another one of my fun images. The background was made with a Cuttlebug embossing folder.

TMTA Turquoise

Here is my little flower girl again. I used her in this ATC for TMTA. The theme this week is Turquoise. Inks are Versafine and Distress. I love the crisp clean image Versafine makes with clear stamps.

Saturday Image Bonus 47

I found this great Jello pamphlet at the flea market from the early 1900's. So the next few weeks I will be posting images from it. They really are wonderful. I hope you enjoy them. I am almost at my 50th Saturday Image Bonus and in honor of it I will be celebrating and giving away blog candy. So make sure you check back. You won't want to miss the fun.
