Lilac Butterfly

Are you ready for some spring weather?? I know I am. It is a wet, gray, dreary weekend here, and I needed some spring colors to brighten things up. I used a sketch I found on SCS to create this fun Lilac Butterfly card. It is sized to fit in a regular #10 envelope - quite a change from my normal A2 cards, huh?

The sentiment has the Wisped Frames technique around it, and I used the Marker Watercoloring technique on the butterfly. The techniques can be found at the Technique Junkies website and newsletters for subscribers. Both stamps are from I Brake for Stamps. If you are having the same rainy dreary day like I've got, go shopping and find some fun new stamps to play with! :-)

Never Grow Old

Happy Friday!!! {jane bosi}

I'm in love with this card! I made it for a blogger's challenge group and a Brakefast challenge--love it when it works out that way! I was stuck for a snow themed image ....snow.....play....never grow old! It all came together! Beautiful paper from Bo Bunny and a stunning sentiment from I Brake For Stamps--what could be better? The sentiment is called Grow Old and can befound in the Stampinback Phrases section.

Make sure to play over at the Brakefast Club--the current contest is a Winter Themed card--see how easy it can be? You can read all about it here. Rumor has it, there's a great prize to be had. How cool is that?

Have a great night.....

TTFN, Jane

"Hang in There!"

Hello!

True :D here.

I broke out with some pink rubber for today's card.

I used I Brake For Stamps' "Laundry". Isn't it cute? I know...I should be doing cold and frosty cards. Wrong! I do as I please and felt like something bright and warm! :)

I stamped the image on 5 different micro pattered papers form K and Company's ~ Super Pad stack then added some shading, cut them out and glued them to the image that I stamped on the white paper. It was a lot of cutting but I like the effect!

I made my own sentiment in PhotoShop.

I used bits and pieces of bright assorted ribbons for embellishments.

I chalked the sky with I Kan Dee chalks and painted the grass with watercolors. The embossing in the background was done with Tim Holtz "Swirls: folder and around the sentiment I used my Scor-Pal and Scor-Bug.

For all of the details, please pop by my blog.

Thanks again for dropping by:

Hugs,

True :D

Love is a Kiss

Hi, Regan here! I wanted to share a card I made with you today and show you the adorable stamp I used called Love is a Kiss!

This stamp is just too adorable for words!

Okay, okay... Here is my card!

I used going gray card stock by Stampin' Up! for the base of my card. I also used Confetti Cream and Real Red card stock by Stampin' Up! The pattern paper is from K&Company and Making Memories. I made the flower using Rose Red card stock by Stampin' Up!, the Tattered Florals Sizzix die by Tim Holtz and Jules Tutorial. I inked up the edges with Tea Dye distress ink by Ranger and Basic Black by Stampin' Up! to give it some grunge and tulle to give it a fun look! I think it is a super cute card and I hope you do as well!


Thank you for stopping by!

Vintage Valentine

Mmmmm, I feel a swoon coming on! I love the vintage yummyness of this stamp from I Brake for Stamps called Be My Valentine Girl. Doesn't it take you back to your childhood and beyond? I just love it! I couldn't wait to share my DT post with you today!



I created this card using my Letraset Promarkers for the little gal and then did some paper piecing with the K and Co Lovely paper collection. I die cut a oval from my Nesties to sort of frame the image and added some Dazzling Diamonds around the oval as well as on the hearts. It is a simple card, but I think it's a cutie. Hope you like it too.

Hope you're having a wonderful week!

Punchy Gecko

{jane bosi}

Lookin' for a little sunshine in my corner of the world--I'm officially sick of Wisconsin's cold temperatures!!! I thought some springy colors and a lizard or two would make me feel better! This card uses Gecko and the Punched Windows technique from the Technique Junkie Newsletter (August 2009). By the way, did you see that Della now has the TJ Fancy Folds CD up on her website??? I'm so excited about that and slowly makin' my way through all the fabulous projects!

I hope you are having a great day/evening!

TTFN, Jane

I BRAKE FOR STAMPS - ELEGANT GEISHA - CREATED BY GAYLE

I have stamped the elegant Geisha with ColorBox liquid chalk on Bazzill cardstock. Background plain and patterned papers are Yuzen from Hero Arts. The Metal bejewelled butterfly is from Making Memories.

Baby, It's Really Cold Outside!

 

 And it IS cold outside! I am sure many of you are having snow and cold today too.  I love it when I am INside! We have a snow day today with -8 windchill (soon to be -25 they say) and almost a foot of snow. 

I made this using images from Penguins and More by I Brake For Stamps. I love this set, because it has a lot of different kinds of sentiments for all sorts of occasions. And who doesn't love watching penguins?

 

For details on how I made this card, have a visit to my blog, Joy in a JAR.

Have a GREAT day!

Pink Carnations

I found some pretty pink scalloped paper in a little packet from Making Memories, and it is just a wee bit longer than my card, so I used the pink color as my inspiration point. The carnations from I Brake for Stamps are watercolored with distress inks, and I added a pale hint of green to the white space around the carnations. After I adhered the colored carnations and the sentiment to the card, I used the Splatter technique from Technique Junkies all over the card. The last thing I added was the the three little pink flowers from Prima.


Stamps: January carnation & Every Day Phrases (I Brake for Stamps)
Ink:Versafine Onyx Black, Worn Lipstick, Bundled Sage, Spun Sugar, Old Paper
CS: watercolor paper, Black
Other: May Arts suede sage ribbon, prima flowers, aquapainter, Making Memories pink scallop paper

Friends Like You

Hi Everyone, Robyn here with a lovely all-occasion girlie card using one of the S.W.A.L.K. stamp sets.

Isn't she just the cutest?! I really love the S.W.A.L.K. images available at I Brake for Stamps. This image is from the "Friends Like You" set.

I just had to show a close-up of this cute stamp. My coloring isn't perfect, but I'm learning. Oh, can you see the flocking on the bunny's tail and tummy? He's a sweet little cotton tail. I did a bit of paper piecing on her dress and bows and then added Stickles to the hair bows.

I'm really enjoying these adorable stamps!

Have a wonderful weekend,

Robyn

"Strip Quilt" Card With Background Stamp

Hello!

True :D here.

Today I wanted to share a set of cards that I made in a strip quilt kind of style. They were a lot of work but fun to do!

I used the "Mini Flower Background" stamp from I Brake For Stamps.

First, I stamped the scraps of assorted papers in VersaMark ink then sprinkled with gold embossing powder and heat set. Then I colored in the leaves and flowers, cut into strips, glued the strips to a piece of cardstock, cut and positioned on the card. I think the results are pretty cool. ;)

I hand drew the sentiments and embossed them as well as the edges of the "quilt".

Thanks so much for dropping by!

For more details on this card, please come visit my blog. 

Hugs,

True :D

Dear Friend

I've been itching to try out my new deer Sizzix die, so when I saw this sketch challenge on SCS, I just had to try it out. I pulled out the Pyrus papers from Basic Grey and cut out a deer from the greenish paper in the collection. Then I ran it through my machine with a music texture plate and did the Cuttlebug Highlights technique on it (from Technique Junkies). Yeah - AFTER I did all that, I realized that the notes are backwards and upside down. OY! Hee hee hee!

I couldn't resist using this sentiment from I Brake for Stamps with this - it's just too perfect! You can find this sentiment on the Every Day Phrases sheet LOL I needed a little extra something, so I used Holly's Tattered Background, also from I Brake for Stamps. I stamped that on the sentiment strip and on the whitish designer paper on the right side of the card. It's subtle but just the right touch I needed.
