Color Butterflies


I must admit I was not a big fan of this coral color.  We made this card at my monthly stamp group last month and I fell in love with the color!  We used a wonderful sale-a-bration set called Fresh Vintage along with the Butterflies embosslit die to complete this card.

We used the marker to stamp technique to color the background stamped image in Calypso Coral and Lucky Limeade.  We added a few of the butterflies and topped them off with pearls.

If you have any questions or want to know how you can get this set, please let me know.  Happy Stamping!

Supplies:
Stamps: Fresh Vintage, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade

St. Patrick's Day Card


My monthly stamp group will be getting together in the next couple of weeks and while I had some free time this weekend, I decided to go ahead and work on my swaps.

I used some products that I've had for a while but haven't used yet.  I started out with a Wild Wasabi card base and added a layer of Very Vanillia.  I used the distressed dots background stamp with Wild Wasabi ink.

I then pulled out my big shot and used the Tasteful Trims Bigz XL die and cut the jumbo ric-rack from that. I used a sale-a-bration set from last year for the little four leaf clover.  I then used the Wild Wasabi embossing powder and heat set it for a little added texture.

I stamped the label using the Four Frames stamp set in Wild Wasabi ink and finished it off with a greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes. *I just love that set*  I used some of the new organza ribbon from the sale-a-bration catalog to finish it off.

If you have any questions, please let me know!!  Happy Stamping!!!

Supplies:
Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Four Frames, Distressed Dots, So Happy for You (retired)
Paper:  Wild Wasabi, Very Vanillia
Ink: Wild Wasabi, Versamark
Accessories:  Tasteful Trims Sizzix Die, Lucky Limeade Organza ribbon, decorative label punch, dimensionals, Wild Wasabi embossing powder
