Summer Blooms and Blossoms Challenge

This week the challenge on the

Eureka! Stamps Blog

is "Summer Blooms and Blossoms"

I chose to make a project using several different stamps from

Eureka! Stamps

"Butterfly and Sunflower" (#20801) flower, blue butterfly and grass

"Butterfly Background" (#58501) for that little purple butterfly

"Eureka Butterfly" (#9702) yellow butterfly

"Sunshine Day" (#15003) sentiment

I also used 2 stamps from

QKR Stampede,

sister company of Eureka! Stamps.

"Sunflower Border" (#17501) and

"Flower Border (#17915)

These 2 image are the same, but different sizes.

I used red rubber for all my images,

but they are all available in digital format.

I started with a 6 pack pop carrier

and covered it with card stock.

I then stamped all my images onto white card stock.

I colored them with FlexMarkers and fussy cut them all.

The Sunshine Day sentiment was stamped

directly onto the card stock on the carrier.

 

I thought this would make a cute carrier for utensils when I have a picnic.

 

I hope you will stop by the

Word Card - I (heart) U

Hello blog friends!  I know it's been ages since I posted.  Lots happening around here and I can't seem to get any stamping and creating done. 

Today I want to share with you, a card that I made using a design that I saw on one of my favorite blogs.  Beate has the most beautiful cards and projects and often has videos, so those of us who are "visual learners" can see the actual process.  Check out her blog and see her instructional video to make this style of card.

I chose to use part of the

"Butterfly Background" (#58501) image from Eureka! Stamps. 

I stamped and colored the image onto watercolor paper and fussy cut the butterfly.  I also covered it with Glossy Accents and adhered it to the heart with glue dots.

I added the bling to the bottom of the heart from my stash of bling.

I think it turned out very pretty, hope you like it too.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Happy Day

Hi all!

Today I'd like to share with you a "Happy Day" card.

For this card I used the "Butterfly Background" (#58501) from Eureka! Stamps

I also used part of the "Happy Birthday" set (#22803) from QKR Stampede and some of their lovely paper flowers. 

Did you know that QKR Stampede also has supplies other than stamps?

If you "Go Shopping" then click on the 'supplies' link you will see that there are links for Sticky Powder, Paper Flowers, Gold Leaf and more.

For this card, I started with plain white card stock and used Distress Ink to make a nice shade of sky blue, I layered the paper flowers and added some brads in the centers and attached them to the card with glue dots. 

I stamped the "Butterfly Background" on water color paper with VersaFine ink and colored it with watercolor crayons, fussy cut one of the butterflies and attached it with a pop dot on the body area. I curled the wings out to give them a 3-D look.

I have cut apart the Happy Birthday greeting from the "Happy Birthday" set and used the pieces to stamp Happy Day onto the front of the card.

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you will stop by Eureka! Stamps and 

QKR Stampede and check out the stamps and other supplies that they have to offer.

Until next time, Happy Crafting! 

Beautiful Butterfly card

Hello all you beautiful people!

It wasn't hard for me to decide that I wanted this beautiful

"Butterfly Background" (#58501) from Eureka! Stamps.

I knew I would love using it and once I had stamped it onto watercolor paper and started to color it with my watercolor crayons, I loved it even more.

Inside I used:

"Happiness Like a Butterfly" (#40403) also from Eureka! Stamps

I love this beautiful sentiment.

Eureka! has many wonderful sentiments, if you are like me, and are short on sentiment stamps, Eureka! is the place to go!

To add the butterfly at the bottom of the inside, I stamped it with VersaFine Black Onyx ink onto white paper and fussy cut it.  Then adhered it with Tombow Mono Multi Glue.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you enjoy my Beautiful Butterfly card as much as I enjoyed making it.

I'd love to hear what you think, so leave me a comment.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
