Today's card once again uses the new stamp set coming in the Summer Mini called Elements of Style. For this card I used card stock in the following colors: Ruby Red, Basic Black, Sahara Sand. The embossed background is done with the Finial Press Embossing Folder, and then I rubbed some Sahara Sand ink over the raised portions. The center image is stamped in Basic Black and colored with Stampin Write Markers. I then did the cracked glass technique over top and rubbed a bit of Close to Cocoa ink over the cracks.

Today's card uses a couple of new products from the Summer Mini Catalogue, which starts May 1st. The stamp set is a beautiful one called Elements of Style and I love the new Embossing Folder Square Lattice. I used the old In Color Pink Pirouette card stock which is returning June 1st and, of course, I needed a hint of glitter so I embossed the bird with Iridescent Ice embossing powder. The inspiration for this card came from one that I saw on our StampinUp Demo site.
Playing With My Brayer
I was playing with my brayer today and this is the result! This picture doesn't show the colors very well, but there are actually a couple of shades of blue in the sky. I used the Autumn Days and Thoughts and Prayers stamp sets for this card. Also did a bit of highlighting with the Signo White Gel Pen.
MY DIGITAL STUDIO PAGE
Today I wanted to share a scrapbook page I made with My Digital Studio. It was really easy to create and I love the way it turned out! Notice that I used the photo editing option to make the center photo black & white. (I saw this layout on someone's blog, but can't remember whose, sorry!) Who's A Big Shot Now? Class
This is going to be a fun and very informative Class! Do you want to learn some new and different ways to use your Big Shot and products? Don't have a Big Shot but would like to learn more about it? Then join me at this class on Wednesday, May 19th at 7:00 p.m. Cost: $20 or FREE with a $45 order. These are just a couple of the projects that we will be making.
Acetate Card
Today's card is made with acetate and some of my favorite Designer Paper - Sweet Pea! (note to self: order Taken With Teal cardstock before it leaves us!) The card is white with a layer of Designer Paper on the front. I then stamped the image from the Razzle Dazzle stamp set and the butterfly from Garden Whimsy in White StazOn on the acetate. Attached this to the card at the top only where it would be hidden by the scallop strips I added. I dyed my white Taffeta Ribbon with Taken With Teal Ink and tied it around all the layers. The greeting is from Well Scripted.
