Burst of Colors

Happy TGIF Everyone!! Today I want to share some denim coloring inspiration for our ongoing Graph'It Marker Coloring Challenge .  I also have some exciting news to share :-) I made the 'We Do Doobadoo UK' DT and we are starting off a brand new blog with challenges on March 8th ! Dutch Doobadoo is a Dutch based company which has fantastic versatile products from paper & cardboard laser art cuts to fabric, stencils, templates and also soft board die cuts. These products are so much fun to work with, can be altered in any way and are perfect for any style! I used some of the fab products on my card today, please find more details below!

Welcome to my last GDT posting for Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps . Thank you so much for having me and it was a pleasure guest designing with these adorable stamps! For my last card today I used the second butterfly available on the Dragonflies 2 clear stamp set. My project with the other butterfly from this set can be seen HERE . Quick 'How To' : Card measures 4.5" x 5.5", cut from plain white 110lbs cardstock. I then cut another plain white layer 4.25" x 5.25". Adhere washi tape. Add flower and secure with pearl brad. Adhere layer with foam tape to card. Stamp butterfly with black ink onto white cardstock. Now stamp the butterfly again right on top of the just stamped balck image using embossing ink. This is easy as it is a clear stamp! Heat emboss with clear fine detail embossing powder. Cut out butterfly. Adhere to card using  foam tape. Stamp the little antennas right onto the card and embellish with 2 small pearls. St...

Hello Everyone , it's Thursday and time for another Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps Guest Designer creation. Once again I used the beautiful and versatile Dragonflies 2 clear stamp set. I stamped one dragonfly onto designer paper and embossed it with Frantage shabby white embossing powder and also added white Gesso around the edges. The second drangonfly was stamped onto cream colored cardstock using Pistachio Memento ink. I've added Gesso again to achieve a little vintage look. Both dragonflies were cut out using the matching Dragonfly Die.  Other dies used are from Memory Box, flowers are from WOC and the rolled rose is handmade using a Memory Box die. Sentiment is also from the Dragonflies 2 clear stamp set. Designer papers are from Pion Design and the lovely lace is from Live and Love Crafts.
