Beautiful Butterfly Card

Hello all you beautiful people!

It wasn't hard for me to decide that I wanted this beautiful
"Butterfly Background" (#58501) from Eureka! Stamps.

I knew I would love using it and once I had stamped it onto watercolor paper and started to color it with my watercolor crayons, I loved it even more.
Inside I used:
"Happiness Like a Butterfly" (#40403) also from Eureka! Stamps
I love this beautiful sentiment.
Eureka! has many wonderful sentiments, if you are like me, and are short on sentiment stamps, Eureka! is the place to go!

To add the butterfly at the bottom of the inside, I stamped it with VersaFine Black Onyx ink onto white paper and fussy cut it.  Then adhered it with Tombow Mono Multi Glue.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you enjoy my Beautiful Butterfly card as much as I enjoyed making it.

I'd love to hear what you think, so leave me a comment.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!



Rubber Stamping Catalog

Bet you thought you would find something else? Ha ha
Today I have a really fun and quick project to share- this bookmark was so easy to put together.
 Isn't this an adorable little girl reading the catalog?
Just colored with Copic markers and a little Liquid Glass to give some dimension. Image was cut with a Spellbinder shape.
I Googled corner bookmark and found several ideas but decided to create my own design.
Card stock and design paper were all from my stash. Ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon, I just tucked a small piece in to the corner before folding.

3D Shell birthday card


Good morning! It's Holly posting today, and I've got a summer-y card to share with you today.

This Shell Pattern is an awesome stamp from Eureka Stamps. You basically stamp it, color it however you want, and then follow the lines to cut and score it, and assemble it so it forms the 3D shape. So cool!

I colored this shell with some Distress Stains and then flicked some dark blue ink splotches over it. I paired this up with the Happy Birthday Script stamp and some fun twine with little shells on it. Below is a close-up picture of the 3D shell:

ROAR!!!!

Hi there! Can you believe it is June 20th already???!!!! Only a couple more days of school for my oldest, then SUMMER VACATION!!!! Well today I wanted to share a card using one of the really cool 3D stamps from Eureka Stamps. If you haven't checked these out yet...you really need to. There are a good amount of them in the Eureka Stamps store. Basically...You stamp the image onto your CS, do some cutting and scoring, and you get a 3D project! Here is what I did with the Fern Leaf stamp. Neat huh? And this was honestly super easy! I stamped the leaf onto some green CS using green ink. I fussy cut the image, and scored along the dotted lines. Then I folded the scored lines. I wanted to add a little more, so I ink distressed the leaf too. These ferns reminded me of a jungle, so I headed to my LCS and picked up some animal stickers. I used some PP from Tim Holtz, and put the lion sticker onto that. Then I added the fern leaf in front of him. Last I added some brown ribbon, and a button with fibers in it. Really this was very simple, and looks very cool! Be sure to check out the rest of the 3D and pattern stamps, and check back for more of the DT ladies to share some of these 3D and pattern images with you.

Inepti-toad

And once again we have Monday.
We had bad weather all weekend, it rained constantly. Hopefully there will soon be warm again.
Today I decided me for the image
"Inepti-toad". I must laugh when I saw the picture first.
"You look great today" ... whether the toad can laugh about it?


 

Have a nice week

Kitty Party

 Hi ,
Today is the third Friday and this is my day to show you something from the stamp shop Eureka! Stamps.
My daughter has today her 28th birthday, which is just the time gone?
Because she likes cats, I have chosen the 6 sweet cats for the birthday card. Are not they cute?





I like the cats ;-)
The name of the stamp is "Kitty Party" and you can buy this as rubber stamp or digi-stamp.
I colored this image with distress ink.

Have a nice day
