Butterflies Appear

Hello Stamping Friends!

I'm sharing a card today using products from Divinity Designs January Blessings Box!!

I love butterflies!!

'Butterflies appear when angels are near'

Self-Propelled Flowers

Hello Sweet Crafty Friends!

I have a fun and colorful card to share today using Lisa Horton Crafts products!

I am just so beyond excited to share this card....I love bright colors!!  Yellow is my absolute favorite!  But I also love butterflies!!  As well as flowers! This all of me put into a card:

I am so excited with how it turned out!!

I used the lovely Nested Flags Dies to create my card base along with a few of the layers:

All of Lisa's new butterfly stamps are absolutely amazing!!  The detail is beyond gorgeous!!  They remind me of images in adult coloring books and I love sitting down once in awhile and coloring in them!  This butterfly is the first one that caught my attention!!  It is from the Majestic Butterflies stamp set!!  The 'Butterflies are self-propelled flowers - R. H. Heinlein' sentiment also really caught my attention!  The sentiment is part of the Wings and Things stamp set!

I used yellow ink to ink the lovely Medieval Stencil behind my butterfly and banner.  The banner is part of the Nested Banners die set!

In the picture below you can also see that I stamped the Bubblewrap stamp in the bottom right corner with Versafine Ink and embossed with a pearl embossing powder!  I just really like the added touch!!

This picture also gives you a closer look at my gorgeous butterfly!!  I stamped this butterfly from the Majestic Butterflies stamp set three times!  so that I could fussy cut certain sections out to add dimension and added interest!  

Have a lovely day!  

Pretty Butterfly

Hello Sweet Crafty Friends!

I am so excited to share my project with you today using Lisa Horton Crafts products!

I just got an amazing package from her this week with new goodies that will be release this coming week!!

Here is a look at one of the first cards I made with some of the new products:

I love how it turned out!!

I used the new Nested Flags to create the fun shaped card base! Along with a few more layers!  The first layer was die cut from a piece of white cardstock!  I really liked the added white flag layer!  The next layer I die cut from a piece of new paper from the Bali Paper!! (I love the paper in this collection!!)  I cut another layer the same size from a piece of paper from the new Capri Paper, but trimmed some of the flag from the top and bottom, as I just waned half the piece, but still wanted the stitching on the side!  I put it on a purple matt.

Next I placed some fun Natural Sisal!! I have honestly never used this stuff and am now absolutely addicted to it!! It adds such a nice touch to projects!!  I love it!!  

Next, I added two Nested Banners, one from purple cardstock and one from a piece of Capri Paper

I am in love with the new Mini Banner Alphabet set!  There are so many amazing possibilities with this set!!  I could die cut sentiments all day!!  For this card I decided to add 'HI"!  I love that there is the added stitching on these tiny banners!! So cute!!

I die cut a few butterfly layers from the EdgeCutz Die - Butterfly Flourish set and added to the banners.

I finished the card off by adding s few flowers!  I used the new Four Point Blooms stamp set and coordinating Four Point Bloom Dies!  I stamped the flowers on vellum and embossed with a white embossing powder.  I then finished them off by adding some Mermaid Tails to the center!!

Have a lovely day!

Butterfly Birthday

Hello Sweet Stamping Friends!

I'm joining in the post today on the My Creative Time Blog!

Today's theme is...
Just Cards

My Aunt's Birthday is coming up next week, so I decided to use today's theme to create a card for her:

I am so in love with the Amazing Things stamp and die set!  The butterfly dies are so beautiful!!  They will be used by me a  lot!!  (Just a warning!!)  Before adding the die cut butterfly I used a fun stencil and paste to add the texture to my card layer.  I love the design behind the butterfly!!

I added the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment from the new Hello Gorgeous stamp set which I stamped on a die cut from the Strip Sentiment Dies set!  Two more products from MCT I absolutely LOVE!!  I then added the little embellishments to finish off the card!

Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time Blog

MCT 89th Edition New Release

Hello Sweet Stamping Friends!

Welcome to the 89th Edition New Release from My Creative Time!!

What a fun week it has been sneak peeking all the lovely new products!


Today I am once again featuring the AWESOME new Amazing Things stamp and die set!
 I LOVE this new set!

From the beautiful sentiments to the gorgeous butterfly dies!  This set has won my heart over again and again!!

Here is the pretty card I created for today's release:

I used the Scalloped Square Square Die set to die cut my white square.  I then used the largest butterfly die from the new Amazing Things set to create my shaker window.  I added just some clear sequins as I wanted to add the streip rainbow paper behind.

I then die cut the smaller full butterfly from a piece of vellum, fussy cut the antennas and bottom off so that I would just have the wings.  I adhered to my window and then added some rhinestones!!

Before adding to my card base, I stamped the lovely 'Hello Beautiful' sentiment to the bottom right of my card base.  I also added another piece of rainbow striped paper this one slightly different with a black shimmery cardstock layer, behind where my window would go.  I like the two different rainbow stripes!  

I really like how this card turned out!

I absolutely LOVE how the center pieces of the wings can be folded up to give more dimension! 

I hope you can see why this set is so AMAZING!!

I can't wait to make another card with it!!
