Good morning Steph here today with a beautiful stamp from Wild Rose Studio - At the Alter.  It truly shows off the wedding couple.





I stamped the couple with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Copic X-Press It cardstock, then colored with Copic markers.  After die cutting into shape, I inked the edges with Ranger Walnut Stain Distress Ink.  To finish, the sentiment, also from Wild Rose Studio - Romantic Greetings - was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Copic X-Press It cardstock and die cut.



May Arts Sheer Ribbon was tied around the card and Pink Roses from Wild Orchid Crafts were added about the image.

Hi everyone!

Pi here again:)

Kellie is stocking the store with some pretty awesome products at the moment. I see mixed media and art journaling in the future :)


Here I am again with some old techniques. I mixed tumbled glass, chipped saphire and seedless preserves distress ink on my craft mat. Misted it some and ran my watercolor cardstock in it and it became this wonderful background.

I just have the perfect stamp set in my stash from MFT - up up and away. The clouds are stamped in chipped saphire and the air ballons in the background is stamped in weathered wood. The sentiment is stamped with memento ink in tuxedo black. The beautiful ballon die cut from Memory box is also cut from watercolour cardstock and rubbed and misted with milled lavender. I then edged it with seedless preserves and stamped tiny dots to add sturcture with a clearstamp from Kaisercraft.

To finish the card I topped it of with some flat back crystals:)

Hi everyone.  Hope you are having a blessed spring, it's been beautiful here which has caused me to spend much more time outside and less time inside being able to craft but I did come up with this beautiful little spring bag that I am using to send a special gift out to a friend.

I used the Sweet Sentiments line from Graphic 45 available at The Rubber Buggy.  I fussy cut the diecut cards and adhered them with foam adhesive for dimension.  I used a bit of trims to accent and a doily to create a beautiful opening/closure for the top.  The butterflies were also fussy cut from the paper, as well as the title.  I also used Prima flowers from the store at the bottom they are from the Divine line.  I hope you like it!

Hi everyone.  Steph here today.

Graphic 45 creates some amazing papers and I've used Ladies Diary in conjunction with some lovely products available in the store.




The cardstock is from Bazzill.  The ribbon is from May Arts and was tied around the base card before adding some torn paper and another print on top.  A memo pin from Tim Holtz was added to the ribbon knot and a sentiment from Wild Rose Studio was added to the pin stamped with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.




Thank you for visiting.

Hi everyone!

Pi here again and on time - LOL!

This card is really not so tricky as it looks. But it's all in the details...


A lot is made with the boarder around the image which is die cut with a spellbinder die and the flowers are coloured with copic marker and alcohol blender solution, add some perfect pearls and stickles - easy peasy, the toughest part is to be patient when they are drying.

Magnolia stamp STONE PATH
WOC open roses 25mm
WOC open roses 10mm
Flat back pearls
Copic markers

Happy Monday all! I’m here with a very sweet box card for my The Rubber Buggy DT post. I love fancy fold cards and this is so unique. It opens up to a box!



Thank you for visiting!

Happy Friday Everyone!!!  Hope you all had a great week.  I've been sick with a stomach virus for about 2 weeks now and am just now starting to feel better.  So that has out a damper on any crafting these past 2 weeks.  So instead of having a NEW creation today, I am going to showcase a creation that I created in the past.  
 This is a card that was first shown on January 17th, 2014,  I really like how it turned out.
Today I am going to show you a card using "Amy" from the Wee Stamps Collection.  Hope you all like it!!!!!

Hi friends it's Kelly here with a card made from the beautiful By the Sea line from Graphic 45.  I made this to compliment summer pics and pages from last year and I just enjoyed fussy cutting these little elements from the paper to put them together.   I used a little pop adhesive to make them 3-d and off the page then added some flower and layered the fussy cut seashells in the corner above the ribbon.  I also used a few Bo Bunny jewels in the corner of the Postage diecut also from the collection, just a little sparkle.  You can still get these papers and paper pad and elements from the Rubber Buggy store.  They truly are amazing and you will love them for your summer pics.





Thank you for visiting ~Kelly

Hi everyone!

Pi here again and I hope you all are fine and crafting away :)

With spring just around the corner and the days starting to be a little brighter and longer in Sweden, it's hard not to start thinking in pastel and light colour schemes.


Here I have returned to where I started with Tim Holtz classic background technique where he just dabs the ink pad on a craft sheet and mists, then dabs the tags in the colour to create the background.
Loved the subtle and shabby effect that came out. I then stamped the postcard in various angles with the tattered rose, some bumble bees in milled lavender and the leaves with bundled sage. Doesn't it really looks like G45 soft pastel palette? I can really see this tag work with sweet sentiment and botanical tea. I used perfect pearl over the tag, unfortunately the camera wouldn't pick it up.

Products used from the store:
G45 ivory tag album
G45 stamp set #3, FRENCH COUNTRY
G45 staples, shabby chic ornate metal keys
G45 staples, shabby chic ornate metal keyholes
Perfect pearl BISCOTTI
Distress ink, BUNDLED SAGE
Distress ink, TATTERED ROSE
Distress ink, MILLED LAVENDER

I hope you liked it!
It was so much fun using this technique again:)

Thanks for watching!

Hi everyone it's Kelly and I want to share this layout with you of my daughter at the seashore. I did whiteout the photos of her in her bathing suit but I wanted to share that I used the Graphic 45 By the Sea paper pad and I loved it.  The hearts and the arrows at the bottom were from the paper line as well as the journaling spot on the upper right hand corner.  It's pretty simple but yet I really like how it displays the colors of the paper and the photos. 

 

Thank you for visiting  ~Kelly

Good morning Steph here today with one of my favorite Stampin Bella stamps - Lolly and Her Brolly.

Hi everyone!

Pi here with a belated card for April 1st.
Here is a quick, easy and fun card to make.


I folded a doily and masked some chicken wire with distress ink. Then my fav part was the paper bow. I've seen many of you use this type of bow for a long time, but if you know me I'm a bit of a slow starter. I've always prefered (and struggled) with ribbon and trim instead. But no more, I'm so hooked on these babies now - LOL!

Products used from the store:
6x6 Maja Design, SKÄRGÅRDSLIV
TCW stencil 6x6 mini chicken wire
5x5 Doilies
Tim Holtz distress ink, PEELED PAINT
