JustRite's May Release-Doily One!

Is it really almost May?  Where does the time go?  The best part of a new month is getting to share all of JustRite's new releases!  Today's set is called, Doily One. I am in love with this set! 

I decided to create a pretty background using turquoise, pink, and yellow.  I matted it on pink paper. The sentiment is also part of this fun set! I stamped it in Versamark and embossed it in gold. I added strips of gold Washi tape to help the sentiment stand out a bit. 

I created another coffee filter flower using Spellbinder's Rose Creations die. I added gold Wink of Stella to the petals.  I added 3 gold pearls to the center and added various layers of string to tie it all together.  (No pun intended!)

Have a great day my friends! Thank you for stopping by!

Vintage Thanks

I love this sweet digital Kewpie image from Crafty Secrets. It says, love, to me. That lil' bunny and his kewpie friend.  Sometimes a hug is all we need to know we are not alone in this big world. 

I went back to my comfortable color palette.  Soft pastels of pink, white, cream, and blue.  It's like an old pair of jeans that you throw on because they are broken in. Comfortable. Familiar.  

The image was colored with Copics and cut out using a Spellbinder's die.  I inked the edges a bit. 

The card shape was cut using my Silhouette. The rosette is a quilling kit from Provo Craft. I also added a doily. The flower was created using coffee filters and Tim Holtz Distress Markers.  I added a bit of ribbon, coordinating string, and a few sequins to finish it off. 

I have so much left to do this week and am in a bit of a panic hoping I can get it done.  Sometimes I load my plate a bit too full and then I kick myself later for doing that to myself! 

So wish me luck that everything I need to do gets done!

Have a great Wednesday!

Hugs to you all my sweet Kewpies! ;)

JustRite's April Release-Congrats Vintage Labels

Good morning!

Today is the last day of JustRite's April release. (boo hoo!)

I hope you've enjoyed all of the new stamps that have come out!

Today's set is a perfect set for special occasions. It is called, Congrats Vintage Labels. 

The frame is so intricate and detailed.

Coral and gold are such a hot color trend right now that I decided to give it a whirl. I stamped the frame twice on pink and  coral papers.  I cut both pieces out and layered them on top of each other. I added gems and pearls. 

I have been on a coffee filter flower kick lately.  I used them on yesterday's project as well. I love giving a soft color with my Tim Holtz Distress Markers and then layering the pieces.  There are actually 3 flowers here, one large and two smaller. I adhered it to the card with ribbon, and pink and gold string.  I added a pretty stick pin to finish it off. 

Here is the set in its entirety. So pretty don't you think?

Be sure to visit these talented ladies!
