Stampin' Mist Technique - Summer Silhouettes - Bold Butterfly - Stampin' Up!

Create your own unique background with your stamp cleaner!  It's as simple as can be and the results are always a little different.

I used Shimmery White card stock and sponged with Bermuda Bay and Wild Wasabi.  I sprayed directly onto the stamp and then stamped several times, re-misting each time.  It takes a few minutes for the magic to work but the results are fun and pretty.

Some glimmer was added to the butterfly with the new Wink of Stella glitter brush.  It is so pretty IRL!

Seasonal Snapshot Christmas Cards - Stampin' Up!

This set of cards was made with Seasonal Snapshot Project Life bundle.  It retires at the end of this year's Holiday Catalogue.  I love how quick and easy it is to put these cards together.  The White Baker's Twine was the only thing not in the Project Life bundle of products used the create these cards besides the card bases.  In the card above there was NO stamping!  The tree and star were die cuts and the red sequin was part of the accessory kit. 

Here I just added the sentiment on a piece of Whisper White card stock and used the tree paperclip that came in the accessory pack.

The star paper clip and the red sequins added from the Accessory Pack.

A little piece of corrugated paper was adhered behind the sentiment.  The Project Life cards did all the work!

The Seasonal Snapshot Project Life bundle of fun is only available until Jan. 4.

Embellished Ornaments - Stampin' Up!

The new Precision Plate works like a charm with our new intricate dies.  The Delicate Ornament Thinlit Dies and the Embellished Ornaments stamp set can be purchased as a bundle...save 15%! (see page 14 & 15 of the Holiday Catalogue.  I forgot to add the Precision Plate to the supply list at the bottom!

The Gold Foil Sheets and Gold Cording add a festive shine.  I adhered the ornament with the new Fine Tip Glue Pen.  This is a great glue designed for gluing smaller pieces of paper on paper.

My card is a 4.25" square front.  I wanted it to be a square card and still fit in the regular A2 envelopes. 

So crank out some great cards with these dies and your Big Shot!
