Fancy Edge'ables Dies from Crafter's Companion Are Here!

 The beautiful new additions to Die'sires Edge'ables collection are available today (and you can click here to see the specials!) I love this Doily Lattice die - it is such a pretty and sweet die that will work on so many projects. Did you notice how the flowers are dimensional as part of the die design? So cool!  I made a bit of a fancy fold card - and made a Z-fold pocket on the front of the card (perfect place to hide a bookmark or secret message).

Valentine Tag

You just have a couple more days to pull together your Valentine's goodies, and what ever you choose, it always makes things extra special to add some homemade love.  I created a tag to decorate a bottle of champagne for the special occasion, but you could just as easily add this to a box of chocolates (or even better - both!)

 


 I added the sentiment over the printed vintage picture (Pion Papers) -

Beautiful Butterfly

 
I hope that you had a lovely weekend, and are getting ready for Thanksgiving!
 
I love layering my Cheery Lynn Designs Dies, because even though the cards aren't difficult, the results are stunning.  This card is really straight forward - no tricky cuts. But hopefully it will inspire you!
 
The new challenge this week is to create a tag using your Cheery Lynn Designs dies.  We would love to have you play along for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the store.

Ready, Set, Spring


I have been so spoiled this winter...as I'm writing this post the sun is shining and it's been in the 60's this week. I know there is probably some wintery weather still heading my way, but I'm happy for all of the pretty days! What better time than now to share a Spring layout with you! I used so many fun techniques on this piece to really build some interesting layers.

Do you love this little embellishment? I had a vintage celluloid charm that's been in my jewelry drawer for ever. I used Amazing Mold Putty to make a mold of it - and it was time to cast away! I poured it up using the Amazing Clear Cast and after it set, I painted it with Creative Inspirations Paint (beige). Now I can make these little trinkets over and over again.

This Dusty Attic Chipboard chair was covered heavily with Wow! Embossing Powders Ultra High Copper. The Ultra-high powders create a ton of texture. Next, I used the Wow! Brocade stamp set to stamp over the copper and embossed in the Suzy West Presidio Purple and Tea Garden Green. I love how you can see the hint of pattern, like worn antique upholstery would look.

I used my Cricut to cut the paper doily and random stamped over the cut, again using the Brocade stamp. The Presidio Purple was used over the green designer paper to create a custom patterned paper. I also added some of the Copper powder around the edges of the layout.

Spring makes you take notice of all of the little things around you, and I hope that I have inspired you to add these extra touches to your layouts.

My Wow Team Day!

The Design Team for Wow! Embossing Powders is rather large, so we were divided into teams. My team, the Powder Puff Girls, is lead by the very talented Gina Lideros. Today my team mates have posted some gorgeous layouts on the Wow! blog, that I'm sure you won't want to miss.

Here's the layout that I created. It will be in the CHA booth in just a couple of weeks :)

The stamp set is one that Suzy West designed that is called Build a Butterfly - and you get to do just that - you can mix and match the layers to create variations in your butterflies - and then all of the different colors of embossing powders - and they are stunning!

I used Tsukeniko's Goosebumps spray to mist my background and then sprinkled with the powders. I really love this effect!
