Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 1

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Classic Butterfly crafting dies. These crafting dies are sooo pretty to play with.

For my card today I deiced to make a shaker card.  I had this pretty paper already in my stash from a while back (remember to hold onto the background pieces you make, you can use them later on card. 😉). I ran those pretty butterflies through my Gemini Jr and my shaker card was almost complete.

To finish off the shaker part I just placed acetate behind the butterflies, added some pretty sequins and form take and placed a card base behind it.  So easy.  For the sentiment I used the Butterfly Dragon stamp set that will also be released this month.  I LOVE how this fun shaker card turned out.

Make sure to come back tomorrow to see what else we have in store for you to check out for the July release.  Have an awesome day!!

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 2

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 2.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Grandma Blessings stamp set and Grandma Blessing coordinating crafting dies. 

I stamped out the images with versa mark and sprinkled it with rose gold embossing powder.  I stamped and embossed a few more butterflies to die cut out.  I trimmed down this panel so I could layer it on top of some sparkly rose gold paper.  I popped up my butterflies and added just a few sequins.

The Butterfly Effect - Crafter's Companion

Hey peeps.  I'm back with another card using one of the gorgeous butterflies from Crafter's Companion.  I am on a butterfly roll these days.  I just can't help it.  They remind me of spring and the beginning of something new. This stamp set is called Butterfly Effect. 

I decided to use my Spectrum Aqua markers this butterfly as well.  I love how it came out.  I wrapped a clothing pin in ribbon for the center of the body.  I wanted to place this large sentiment on the outside of my card.  I think it's so profound that it needed to be on the front. 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope to see you back here real soon.

Go forth and be crafty~

Featured Stamper 290

Morning peeps.  How are you doing this blessed Sunday morning?  I am up and at it in my stamp room.  Of course I had to slip on by Splitcoaststampers and checkout the Featured Stamper this week.  And boy what a great surprise.  It was Mary aka jandjccc.  Mary has an amazing gallery to case from.  Oh I could of spent all day casing her cards.  Absolutely beautiful.  So I finally decided to make this one in honor of Mary.  I love the softness of this card.  It will be perfect for a new bride and groom.  I'll have to hold it in my stash for that special couple.



I hope to be playing in my room for awhile so I might have another card for you.

Hugs and love~
