Butterfly Pages

There is no stamping to create this double layout. I love how it turned out too!


The base cardstock is Melon Mambo. I used True Love and Love You Always designer series papers for the bottom portion of the double layout. I added some black organdy glitter ribbon to add some softness.


I used the Butterfly Beauty dies to cut from Melon Mambo and Basic Black. I layered them on top of each other and then cut the butterflies apart so I could put them where I wanted them. When adhering delicate items together, I use a sponge, silicone mat, and multi purpose glue. I squeeze a little glue on the mat and pick it up with my sponge and dab the glue on the back of my dies. This helps me get an even coverage of glue and it doesn't squeeze out when I layer them.


Creating scrapbook pages is fun challenge for me. All the pages I share here are from my scrapbook class that I offer once a month. If you are interested in joining me, let me know. I can get you the information for the next class.  I would love to help you create pages and complete your scrapbooks.

Happy Stampin'!

Toile Christmas

This cardinal from Toile Christmas is on the retiring list. I love this classic, realistic look of this guy. I have enjoyed working with him and have made some fun Christmas cards. It's never too early to get started on making your Christmas cards!

I colored the cardinal with my Real Red blends. The designer series paper is called Toile Tidings. Without a greeting, you really could use this card for just about anything!


More of the Toile Tidings designer series paper to create the background for this card. I stamped the cardinal this time with Real Red ink and didn't color him in. You can see that he is still stunning. The banner and greeting are also part of this set and the die to cut the banner is part of the die set.


I used the Cherry Cobbler blends on this card. I like the richer color but the bright Real Red is fun too! You can see that I embossed the Basic White cardstock in the background with the Woodland embossing folder. This has been staple in my creating and I'm a bit sad that it is going away. I embossed the banner and greeting with white embossing powder, not gold like the recipe says. 


This classic bird could be part of your collection but don't delay. These things are going so fast!

Happy Stampin'!
