IBS Beautiful Day

I have a beautiful card to share with you using some more of Inspired By Stamping's lovely stamps!! 

With the photo in mind, I created this fun card that can be used for an everyday card or possibly for a Mother's Day card!

The beautiful sentiment is from the Big Notes II set!  I used the Delicate Doilies II set to create the bottom piece of paper.  I just love the doilies in this set!  They're perfect for creating your own papers!

Have a wonderful day!!

IBS Backgrounds and French Notes

Good morning!! 

I have some more lovely "eye candy" to share with you today using some of Inspired By Stamping's May release stamps!!

I have really enjoyed working with this month's release!

--------------------------------

Today we are showcasing projects using the new Basic Backgrounds III and French Notes!

Like the background stamps we showcased yesterday, this set is also amazing!

I decided to create a layout using some beautiful pictures of my little girl!

The chevron black and white strips are from the new Background Basics II set!

Check out the fun "Oh la la" sentiment from the new French Notes stamp set!

I thought the sentiment was perfect with these pictures!

I love the new die that will be releasing as well!!  

Fancy Label Die 2

I also used one of the new frames, from the set Fancy Labels 2!

(LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!)

My favorite background stamp from the Background Basics III is the polka dot one!! Love it!
(Although the other two backgrounds are AMAZING as well!!)

I thought it would be fun to add gems on some of the polka dots!

I also used the Delicate Doilies II set to create this fun flower:

And to also just create some nice elements in the top right corner!

What a fun layout!

Creating Washi Tape

It's time for me to create another Whoo Hoo Wednesday tutorial for Inspired By Stamping!!

Whoo Hoo!!

I am so excited to share my post with you today!

I've decided to create my own 

Shimmery Washi Tape!!

You can see my tutorial on the Inspired By Stamping Blog!!

I love Inspired By Stamping's new Washi Tape stamp set, but thought it would fun to use some of IBS's background stamps to create some other patterns.  

The lovely circle frame is from the set Fancy Circles and the sentiment is from Graceful Hydrangea!

Close-up:

The stamps I used for my washi tape are Delicate Doilies II, Background Basics I and Mason Jar Add On III.

I used CI Paint Fuchsia, Plum and Tutu Pink.

For the bottom two pieces I embossed the stamped images with white embossing powder!

How fun, you can create your own washi tape to go with any project!!

The possibilities are endless!!

IBS Chalkboard Technique

Each month on the 20th Inspired By Stamping, will be having a blog hop featuring a different technique, idea or color combination!!

It's a great way to create something with your new stamps from our latest release!!

I've used the new Beautiful Iris set for my card! 

I just LOVE flowers!  This Iris stamp is so beautiful and the sentiments in the set are all perfect as well!  Just love the font used!!

I've never used this technique before, so this was a first for me!  I really enjoyed trying it out!

I decided to stamp the image and then use different colored chalks to color it, to give it that chalkboard look.  

The top and bottom border are from the set Delicate Doilies II! 

Just a close-up of the border and sentiment.

The iris:

I sure can't wait to see my Iris's coming up this spring!!

I also added some White Seam Binding!

What a fun technique!  Join in, we'd love to see what you create!

This challenge goes until April 3rd!

Two randomly selected winners will be given a $25 gift card to the Inspired By Stamping Store!!

There are so many lovely stamps to choose from!
