Black Lace Flower

Stamped panel is brayered; some images are stickled with black stickles; flower was created with black lace from my stash but it's just a bit BIG for the card! The center of the flower is a brad from PaperStudio. Bottom of card was punched with a Martha Stewart larger border punch.

More Fabric Flowers



Flowers created for a wonderful blooms swap on SCS. Both flowers were created using buckram material, die cut using Tim Holtz Tattered Floral and Tattered Leaves dies. After diecutting, I hand-dyed the shapes using SU reinker for the flowers and Forest Moss Distress Stain for the leaves that are attached to the yellow flower. I used fabri-tac glue to adhere each diecut to shape the flowers (5 diecut layers stacked per flower).

Groovy Blast from the Past

I created this card using a retired Stampin Up set called Groovy for a swap way back in April 2011 and am just now uploading it! I'm ready for some flower power instead of seeing the ground covered with snow. I *think* the patterned paper is from a DCWV paper pack. The card is one of my favorite folds...Z fold.

Pink, Lace, and Prima

Card created for a themed monthly swap. Pink is my favorite color and I love creating beaded stick pins. :) The embossed background was created using a Paper Studio emobssing folder from Hobby Lobby.

The Cat's Pajamas Spring Fling



I recently joined a The Cat's Pajama's ATC swap; but, I had no TCP stamps! So, as the story goes I couldn't stop at just one and now have 4 or 5 of these adorable stamps to play with. So, for the ATC swap I used Spring Fling stamp set to create a Z-fold ATC. There is lots of sparkle on my ATC but the camera just won't pick it up! I colored the flowers with Copic Spicka glitter markers; hat colored with Shin-Han Touch Twin markers.
