PW May Blog Hop—Final Farewells

It is time for the Paper Wings May Blog Hop and this month we are featuring some of our favorites that showed up on the final farewells discontinue list from The Angel Company. There is still time to get your hands on them, so contact your angel today… or let me know if you don’t have an angel!



I decided to use this tulip image from the Flower Collage Trio set. I stamped with Versa Mark and then embossed with Transcendence clear embossing powder. I used cotton balls to ink up with image. The patterned paper is from Maggie SWIC.

Thanks so much for hopping by, now if you haven’t already made the round be sure to go see what my fellow angels have in store for you!

April Showers bring May Flowers Blog Hop

Its time for another Paper Wings blog hop! This time around we are all about the flowers! I can’t wait to hop around and see what all the ladies have to share! I decided to use the set Flower Collage Trio and colored it with prismacolor pencils. I just learned that this set is on the final farewells list that TAC put out. I’m so sad to see it go! It can be purchased at a discount for now though!



I decided to use the Winchester SWIC and matching Cardstock along with a black card base. Throw on some bling and floss and there you have it!

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look, let me know what you think and then hop on over to the rest of the ladies!

July Card Class

I just had my July card class on Friday and am finally getting around to posting. I know, a little late, but what can I say.... I do have two done for August already, so I am way ahead of the game there.... should balance me out then right?

This card was so much fun! The image is from Flower Collage Trio and was stamped in Versa Mark. I colored it in using chalk. The background is done with Script using New Canvas Palette Ink. I embossed white CS with a fiskars Lace texture plate with my Wizard! Amazing, I can finally use the stack of awesome texture plates that were a pain to use before.



Thanks for stopping by, please let me know what you think! Hope that you are having a wonderful week!

Supplies:
Stamps: Flower Collage Trio, Script Background
Ink: Versa Mark, Burnt Umber Palette, New Canvas Palette
Paper: Brown, Kraft, White, Purple CS
Other: Chalk, sponge, Lace texture plate, Wizard, ribbon, brad

Sweet and Simple Color Combo

Playing along with a Color Combo Motivational issued by Bridgett.

Birch Cardstock (or something similar, natural or ivory)
Burnt Umber Palette Ink (or something similar, browns and tans)
Sparkle (think SHIMMER, SHINE, clear stardust glittering gel pen, rhinestones, bling, shiny ribbon, whatever!)

This is a sweet and simple list to use, and it was so easy to put together! I used some ivory Cardstock and did some stamping and sponging with Burnt Umber Palette and used a glitter pen to put some sparkle on the flower and butterfly. The flower image is popped up.



Here is a close up to see the sparkle!



Thanks for taking a look! Let me know what you think and have a specTACular Day!!!!

Always Remember.....

Always Remember.... seems like I am always trying to remember too many things. I am a list person, I have good intentions when writing out lists of things to do, but then my lists disappear. Its always fun to find an old list and see what I did or did not get done on it!

I made this card to send to someone special that has been a little down and I think needs to remember how beautiful she is, through and through. I sometimes forget how important it is to remind the people in our life what they mean to us, and what better way than a handmade card with a note from you!

I used Always Remember and Flower Collage Trio, stamped with Noir Palette ink and Versa Magic, colored with Aquacolor Crayons using a water brush.

I started scrapbooking to be able to share photos and memories in beautiful ways, more than just a boring photo album. Since being introduced to the wonderful world of stamps and coloring... I have slacked off in my scrapbooking. I am now working to incorporate the stamping I love into my layouts. This layout uses stamps from Always Remember, the same set as the card and Amberley Grace paper. I also stamped on one of the tags in the paper kit, tied on some floss and popped it up.


As always, let me know what you think! Email me if you have any questions!
