 Hello Everyone! I am here today with a design team project for Rubber Stamp Tapestry! Valentine's Day is fast approaching so this is a perfect opportunity to create a card using the Tapestry Hearts Peg Stamp Set! Go get many choices within this set - a heart, flower, vine and a branch!  Not sure if it is a habit or... OK it is a habit that I developed! LOL When I create a card using my peg stamp I must also grab for me memento dew drop ink pads... It's like peanut butter & Jelly!  I stamped my images in the shape of a heart and then added a die sentiment for the final touch! Just some of the products I used in today's project...

Be Inspired, Be Creative, ENJOY and SHARE what you create today! ~ Desiree  Hello Everyone! Today I am back with another design team project for Birch Press Design PLUS a GIVEAWAY! How exciting! Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and Birch Press has designed a great release to celebrate! The Adora Layering Die set is perfect to show someone how special they are with all the hearts to go around!  I knew I wanted to create a distress oxide background, so I grabbed three of my favorite colors and had fun ink smooshing onto my bristol cardstock! I started with my worn lipstick and then used my aged mahogany. For some final touches I added some ground espresso splatters… because when does a background not need those right? Once that was completed I set it aside so it could dry.  Now to all the die cutting! I used my white card stock and cut each of the Adora layers and three sets of my sentiment, we will get to that shortly! Once all my die cuts were completed I layered then all together starting with layer B onto layer C and finally layer A onto B and C. I then used one of the dies to create a cut out in my background.  For my sentiment I used the Big Lingo Type HUGS die. What I love about this die set is you have options… You get three ways to give HUGS! An outline, solid, or just the letters, what could be better! I layered three of the solid of the sentiments together and then added two of the outlines to the top of the base. I love this look and the possibilities are endless on how you could dress this sentiment up! I grabbed my liquid adhesive and adhered my background panel to my standard A2 size card base and then set my Adora Mandela in the cut out. I love this look… These dies create an illusion to the eye, is the focal point going into the card or coming out of the card?... I then adhered my sentiment to the bottom right hand corner.

Don’t’ forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to my channel! Always Remember... Be Inspired, Be Creative, ENJOY and SHARE what you create today! ~ Desiree  Hello Everyone! I am back with another project, but this time I am going to use their Circle Burst stencil! I knew when I saw this stencil, there were going to be a lot of big and shiny balloons to celebrate a birthday! I grabbed three of my distress oxide inks in spiced marmalade, worn lipstick and peacock feathers and my distress blending brushes and got my card stock panel ready for my stencil.  I made sure I taped my panel down so it would not shift while I was applying my ink through the stencil. Using my blending brushes I made sure I always went in the same direction which provided a shadow along one side of my balloons. Make sure they overlap to give a sense of the center balloon is in front of the other two! I pulled out my black fine liner pen and added my strings and bows to my balloons and a highlight mark with my white gel pen!  For my sentiment I used the Birthday Sugar Script die. This is a great large and bold sentiment to help the celebration shine! I used black card stock for the background die and a shimmer card stock for the sentiment itself! I popped my sentiment up using my double-sided foam tape and placed along the bottom edge of my card design with enough space to set my other two sentiments above and below to finish my wish! I used my liquid adhesive to secure my panel to my standard A2 size top folding card base (4 1/4 inch x 5 1/2 inch). Here are just some of the products I used for this project!

Don’t’ forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to my channel! Always Remember... Be Inspired, Be Creative, ENJOY and SHARE what you create today! ~ Desiree  Hello Everyone! Today I am very excited to be a Guest Designer on the Spellbinders Blog today showcasing their Hot Foil Glimmer plates by Becca Feeken – Amazing Paper Grace! The Amazing Paper Grace collection is absolutely beautiful and you will see why so many of these products are titled as Elegant! For today’s projects I chose three gorgeous glimmer dies from this collection called Foil Flowers, Elegant Circle and Elegant Occasion Sentiments! These images make any focal point on your card special and unique and work perfectly together!  For my first project I chose the center die from the Elegant Circle Set. I used copper, rose gold and silver foil and cut each piece down to the size of my foil plate. I decided on my card stock I wanted to foil on and chose a sentiment from the Elegant Occasion Sentiment Set. Once my Glimmer Hot Foil System was ready, my images were foiled onto my card stock one by one using a different color of foil for each image. When I was done setting my images, I used one of my dies from the Hemstitch Rectangle Set to cut out my panel and used my tape runner to adhere it to my Standard A2 size side folding card base. This card may look complicated but the Glimmer System makes these cards simple and quick to complete!  For my second image I used the Foil Flowers Die Set and the Elegant Occasion Sentiments and grabbed many colors of card stock to foil my images on! The Glimmer Hot Foil System comes with everything you need to immediately start creating beautiful projects, yes, including dies! I used one of them as my background for my card. Once all my images were done and die cut with the coordinating outline die, I was ready to start layering my card. My flowers were placed on opposite corners of my oval using liquid adhesive and foam tape for added dimension and texture! After my flowers were set, I had a beautiful backdrop for my sentiment! Set my panel onto my Standard A2 Size side folding card base. Here are just some of the products I used for these projects...
