Spring Essentials

02-27-10_0662If I make a beautiful spring card will it bring the warmer weather?  I sure hope so!  I love these new Spring Essential Embossing Powders.  A set of 4 cosmic embossing powders with a hint of glitz, Princess Rose, Spring Willow, Buttercup Petal,  Morning Glory .  They are perfect for any spring card.  I used the new Spring Blossom stamp and embossed it with each of the 4 colors, punched them out with a 1 1/4 circle punch, then layered them on a 1 3/8 circle cardstock.  The verse is stamped embossed with the Morning Glory. Check out the full directions here.

Now I’m ready for some warm spring weather!

Fun at Stampfest

02-18-10_0653We had such a great time at the show last weekend.  There were classes and a make n take on Friday, and then the show on Saturday.  This is the make n take we did, isn’t that Little Bunny soooo cute…especially with all that beautiful Sparkle N Soft!  It’s the perfect stamps to use to make sure you get lots of fuzzies…when you rub your fingers across the Little Bunny it’s like you are really petting him!  We colored him first with Watercolor Pencils and Dove Blender Pen, then used the Brushable glue to paint the areas we wanted the Sparkle N Soft of, then dump it on, pat it, and tap the excess off.  SOOOO CUTE!!!

Have some fun stamping today, it will make you smile:)

Happy Stamping,

Blessed Easter

Here is another Easter card I made with a diffent bunny stamp, but the same method.  Making part of the image dimensional by cutting it out, and the using the Sparkl N Soft really adds so much to the cards.

I don’t know why the link on yesterdays card doesn’t work but you can check  them out here and  hereeaster-blessings.

Easter Flowers

easterI wish you could just reach through the screen and feel this card!  It is so soft!!  I added Sparkle N Soft to the bunny and the flowers, it just adds so much to the card.    It really is so easy too…just paint on some of our Brushable glue to one area at a time and dump on the Sparkle N Soft.  The glue dries within a few minutes and you can go on to the next color.  Check out all the directions here.

Happy Stamping,

Garden Fairy

spread-your-wings02-07-10_0552Of the 3 new fairy sets the Garden Fairies are my favorite.  With the fairytale font and the mushrooms!!  Check them all out here.  For this one I stamped and colored with Copic Markers, then added some Green Iris Glitter to the wings and the mushroom spots.  The Garden Border on the inside is so delicate and beautiful!  Think of all the possibilities with these sets with all the little detail stamps that come in the set!

Did you know if you make a card using only stamps from any of these sets and send it in you can receive a FREE stamp of your choice!!  I may even feature it on the blog!  So get stamping!

Happy Stamping,

The Glitter Fairy Did It!

01-31-10_0516_edited-1I sooooo love these new fairy images and all the wonderful and fun sayings with them!!!  But of them all I love this saying:  The Glitter Fairy Did It!  Since I work so much with glitter it’s usually all over me and my house and I would always tell my family “the glitter fairy did it!”  So this stamp is perfect!!!

Anyway, on with the card.  Since the glitter fairy did it I wanted a card with all the glitter I could get on it:)   I made the background using the Lace Technqiue with using Orchid Glitter for the first color, then Flaming Orange.  For the main image panel I stamped the Floating Fairy and the Sentiment with Black Memento and colored the body with Copic Markers, and added the orange to the glitter swishes.  For the wings I painted on the Brushable Glue and used Orchid Glitter, and the Interference Violet…I also added the Interference Violet to the glitter swishes.   The 3 rhinestones finish off the bling.

Get your glitters out today and have some fun playing, and make sure you let everyone know that “The glitter fairy did it!!”
Happy Stamping,

Jill
