Kennedy Grace Creations: Lovely Little Layers


Hi, all!  I have a CAS layered card to share with you today.  It uses some of the *NEWEST* products from the Kennedy Grace Creations store, and I decided to keep it relatively monochrome.  Take a peek...


This beautiful image is from the *NEW* Grace's Little Notes stamp set.  To create this effect, I layered three pieces of white cardstock.  I used removable adhesive to keep the smaller pieces in place, then stamped the floral image in black ink.  I then matted each piece and layered them with permanent and dimensional foam adhesives.  The centers were jazzed up with glitter, and a few sequins from the *NEW* Paris in Spring sequin mix add a bit more sparkle, shine, and finish to the image panel.


I wanted to keep the image the only important part of the card, so I chose to keep with black and white layers.  I used a subtle white glitter paper for just a bit more texture and shine.  I really love the way this turned out!  I hope you like it, too!  Please leave me a comment below and let me know what you think!


Thank you so very much for stopping by today!  I hope you go grab these beautiful products from the Kennedy Grace Creations store today--they are a beautiful addition to any stash!  Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping, friends!

Great Impressions: Spring Meadow


Hi, all!  It's time for me to share another creation using some fun rubber stamps from the Great Impressions online store!  Take a peek at my offering today...


I used F496 Meadow Border and A55 Bee to create a fun springtime scene at the bottom of my focal panel.   I colored the images in with glitter gels pens, then added a faux stitched border.


The sentiment is D466 Time for Yourself.  I stamped it, matted it, then added it to the focal panel with dimensional foam.  A few blue glass bubbles were added for a bit more finish.


I think this is super fun and fresh!  What do you think?  I would love for you to let me know by leaving a comment below!


That's all for me today, friends.  THANK YOU so much for stopping by to take a peek at my card!  I also would love for you to come and join our monthly challenge!  If you use a stamp from the Great Impressions online store, please link it up in our Customer Gallery, too!  Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)

Happy Birthday!


Hi, friends!  I'm back today to share a fun birthday card made using some fabulous products from The Stamps of Life!  Come and see...


I used the Quirky Number Dies to create a fun background.  I added some patterned paper behind to add more color to this card.  I love the way it looks with the light blue matting--so pretty!


The sentiment is from the ribbonbanner2stamp set.  I LOVE this fun font with the number dies!  The styles go together perfectly!  I added some ribbon, baker's twine, bling, and a button to highlight this part of the card, as well.


I super adore the way this card turned out!  I hope you like it, too!  What are your thoughts?  I can't wait to read them in the comments below!

Inspired By Stamping: Plumerias


Hey, everyone!  I am SUPER excited to get to share creations made using the *NEWEST* acrylic stamps from Inspired By Stamping!  Today we are featuring the *NEW* Plumerias set.  Take a peek at my card...


I stamped the single plumeria bloom from the *NEW* Plumerias set multiple times to create a background.  I colored them and then added some glitter for texture and shine.


I stamped the sentiment from the Plumerias set onto vellum, then heat embossed it with some black glittery embossing powder.  I added some pink gingham ribbon as an anchor for the sentiment. A fun rhinestone flower finished off this portion of the card


Some glitter paper and gray matting was added to keep with a softer vibe.  This card reminds me of a soft sunset on a beautiful beach!  I hope you enjoy it, too!  Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below!


Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends!  That's all I have for you today, but I'll be back later with more inspiration using fabulous products from the Inspired By Stamping online store.  Until then, HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)
