Butterfly Thank You

 

The new Butterflies Thinlit Dies are fabulous.  If they aren't on your wish list they should be.  I was afraid of them at first — all those little pieces to sit and poke out.  SO, not true.  Many fellow demonstrators started posting a little tip to using these beauties. Dryer Sheets and Wax Paper are the answer — that's right kitchen and laundry supplies.
Butterfly Thank YouWhen building your Big Shot sandwich you need a couple extra layers — magnetic platform, clear acrylic plate, add a piece of dryer sheet, cardstock, piece of wax paper, butterfly thinlit, second clear acrylic plate.  Run through the Big Shot and VIOLA, your butterfly comes right out.  I had to poke out a few pieces but it was very quick and easy.

Look how great this card looks.  Team member Amanda made this card — isn't it great.
Ilove the pink and gray look.  Order your Butterflies Thinlits Dies now and give it a try!!

You Warm My Heart

 

The Sheltering Tree stamp set has been very popular with my customers and it's only been available for 16 days.  It is such a versatile set.  Wait until you see the Home Decor piece I'm working on — can you say WOW!!!

FullSizeRender-01The base of this card is Basic Gray with a layer of Pink Pirouette.  On a piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the tree with Basic Gray ink, next I stamped the "blossoms" or leaves with Pink Pirouette ink.  I used the new Confetti Heart Border Punch to punch out a bunch of little hearts from Pink Pirouette and Strawberry Slush cardstocks, then I adhered some to the tree with Glue Dots.  Don't forget to stamp the grass under neath the tree with Pear Pizzazz ink.  Cut the banner shape and adhere to card front with dimensionals.

Birthday Gift with a Gold Bow

I love when a card has a little dimension to it.  All of my customers know I am the queen of dimensionals.  This card has some bling dimension to it.

Birthday BowFirst, check out the gold scallop peeking out the bottom. This scallop was made using the Striped Scallop Thinlit and the Gold Foil cardstock.  The "present" is the new Birthday Bash designer paper — there are gold flecks in this DSP.  Last but not least is the gold bow — it is tiny and adorable but quick to make using the brand new Bow Builder Punch from the Occasions Catalog.  Just punch out the bow pieces twice and assembe with Glue Dots.  The Happy Birthday is from the Big Day stamp set which you can earn FREE from the Sale-a-Bration brochure.
