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!!

Keychain

Ready for another teaser?

Creative Inspirations Paint will soon be releasing a new product!

I've been having fun playing around with it and creating some fun projects!

Today I've created a fun little keychain, that I gave my sister!

I began with a tiny piece of paper, in which I stamped the "sweet friend" sentiment and then added some Tutu Pink CI Paint!
The shimmer is beautiful!!

The sentiment is from the set Creative Tags by Inspired By Stamping!

I also added some gems and then finished it off with the "new" product! ;)  Which makes the gems look flat, but I kind of like the different look you get!

I finished it off, by adding some Baby Girl 3 Girl Jam Crinkle Ribbon!  Just to add a nice final touch!!

Fun!

We sure can't wait to see what you create with the new product!  Keep watching....it will be released soon!

Have a wonderful day!
