Fly Away: Watercolor Wings

Hello Stamping Friends!

Here today with a very quick post using the Watercolor Wings stamp set, with my technique borrowed from Stampin' Up demonstrator and teacher, Patty Bennett.  

I loved Patty's butterfly cards tutorial and I wanted to share her technique with my stamp camp ladies last month so I came up with my version of Patty's card, thus the CASE.  (Copy And Share Everything)  

I hope you will try this technique and enjoy every minute of it!

Happy Stampin'

Onto my card:

I used the Notecards  for this card to really make the butterfly the star of the show!

Ready...set...take off!

It's ready to simply fly off of the page!  Rhinestones make everything prettier, don't you agree?

2015-16 Stampin' Up! In Colors Are Here!

Hello Stamping Friends!

I'm here today to show you examples of our newest group of Stampin' Up! In Colors.  I think they are pretty yummy.  What do you think?  

They are lovely together and really awesome paired with our existing color line.  

I took inspiration from Angela McKay and then made my cards in every color! 

I hope you enjoy them.  ;-) 

The new Stampin' Up annual catalog will go live on June 2 and I can't wait for you all to see and experience it.  

Happy Stamping,

You've Got This!

Hello Stamping Friends,

I come bearing a new card for you all, based on two different blog challenges posted this weekend.  First, from Can You Case It? comes the sketch.  Second, from The Paper Players comes the color scheme.   
Details to follow later!   
I'm sorry about the muted colors of my photos.  I had a terrible time capturing this pretty color combo.  I think it's prettier in real life.  ;)

I hope you enjoy!

blessings,

barb

My card:

It's always been one of my favorite techniques; stamping on any type of patterned paper.  You can do this with all of your designer papers and even magazine images.  It make for such interesting images.  

Here I used the retiring All Abloom card stack for my flower and my little banners at the bottom.

Sometimes just a touch of lace does the trick for a card.  I love this Sahara Sand lace ribbon.  It's beautiful.
