Christmas 2011 Layout for I Am Roses

LOL ok ...we have ONE more holiday project for ya!!!  Here I created an 8x8 layout using My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Christmas paper my Aloha-BFF, Dayle sent me.  This is the first year I have ever scrapped a Christmas Layout, I usually forget to take photos but this year I was determined to take one,  this was taken at a friends house for their annual tamale Christmas party.  We had lots of fun and my friend had decorated her fireplace just perfectly.  I also HAD to use the gorgeous special big red gardenias Bunma had sent in a recent design team package. Here are the products I used: Big Red Gardenia (Special 1) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=57605&pid=255365 Mixed All Green Medium Daisy Flowers http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&pid=262533 Mixed Red Color Cherry Blossoms http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=21367&pid=86691

Holiday Card for I Am Roses

Before I roll into Valentine's Day projects, I'll end the holiday crafting season with this card.  I used the Teresa Collins Christmas Home paper and variety of I Am Roses flowers.  I used one of the longer sprays and it looks fantastic, I accented the spray with an I Am Roses red mini rose (yep these are gonna be perfect for those Valentine's Day projects) and one of my favorite flowers, a white 2 inch R77.  I also added a touch of color to the spray with olive green seam binding.  Here are the I Am Roses products I used: Long Spray - 2 White Paper Flowers Spray http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=53907&pid=243641 0.50 Inch Round Roses http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22187&pid=89441 2.00 Inch White Roses R77 http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22946&pid=92469 and here are the pictures: Thanks for stoppin&

Birthday Anya II Cards for I Am Roses

** Remember the I Am Roses Color Challenge is going on NOW, there's still time to participate find the details here: http://iamroses-challenge.blogspot.com/2011/12/december-iar-color-challenge.html I've been obsessed with the "Sweet Stack" by DCWV, I have been loving all things candy, cupcakes and glitter!!!  This stack also goes well with the Greeting Farm Birthday Anya II stamp.  I had tons of fun experimenting with the hair color and different ways to glitter the image. To top it off I added some of my all time favorite I Am Roses Flowers: White Semi Open Rosebuds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=20624&pid=80876 0.50 Inch Mini Roses (Round) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22191&pid=89126 0.50 Inch Mini Roses (Curly/Shabby) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22188&pid=89107 S10 Pink Flowers (Currently Ou

I Am Roses 2011 December Color Challenge!

Super excited to be a part of one of the first I Am Roses challenges...and a challenge it was.  If you are on my FaceBook you will know I broke my Sizzix Big Shot!!! Gasp!!!  Totally my bad as I overloaded the thing.  I never knew how much I relied on my Big Shot to create, now I do.  I use it everytime a make something....so I was at a loss.  I made this inspiration card without my Big Shot as the new one was still en route.  I had to get creative fast, so I used a very cute and forgotten embellishment....a Tattered Angels frame!!  Of course I loaded it with some gorgeous I Am Roses flowers!! So...... Are you ready for our first I Am Roses Color Challenge? It’s happening right now. Here’s your chance to win some of the fabulous flowers that our Design Team uses. Head on over to the I Am Roses Challenge Blog   http://iamroses-challenge.blogspot.com/ for more details and challenge rules. Here's my inspiration project! Here are the flowers I used: 1.5 inch and 2 i

"Green" 12x12 Layout for I Am Roses

I loved the 12x12 shapes I cut out at my LSS using the Accucut.  Super fun alternative to the regular square 12x12 paper.  I am also still in love with corrugated cardboard and this time painted it with vintage white acrylic paint - I love the look the texture is fantastic.  I also wanted to use these super beautiful green flowers that I recieved in a design team package a few months back.  I love how the green in the pictures matches the green in the flowers.  I love how this layout turned out and how the leaves really look like they could have been one of the leaves in the picture. Here are the I Am Roses flowers I used for this layout: Green Daisy Paper Leaves http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22758&pid=83359 White Semi Open Rose Buds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=57302&pid=80876 White Puffy Semi Rose Buds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detai

The Greeting Farm Blush Society Cards for I Am Roses

I finally got some time to dust off my copics and make some cards with my two new favorite stamps.   For my projects today, I have created two cards using The Greeting Farm Blush Society stamps.   These stamps are way too cute for words (minus the nostrils LOL which I decided not to stamp).   My favorite part of cardmaking is choosing the embellishments, I enjoyed choosing the flowers I used today.   I love the versatility of the rosebuds and I featured 3 different kinds of rosebuds today, I have also featured a mixed sizes set in blue.   The mixed sizes sets come in handy because they all match but they come in different sizes which is great if you want to mix it up on a project! Here are the I Am Roses flowers I used for these cards: Random Mixed Sizes of Blue Tone http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22691&pid=85371 White Semi Open Rose Buds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=57302&pid=80

"Giving Thanks" Layout for I Am Roses

I had some leftover Teresa Collins "Giving Thanks" paper leftover from last years mini album.  I do not normally work with oranges and browns but thought I'd challenge myself and pair it up with some orange and brown flowers Bunma had sent me.  I love how this came together , I think it is still "me" but in a different color scheme!  I featured a new long spray from I Am Roses - these long sprays make it so easy to arrange flowers on 12x12 layouts, just adhere and mix in some "loose" flowers around it - and voila instant flower fabulousness! Here are some pictures of today's project: Here are the links to the products used in this project: Big White Gardenias http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=57602&pid=90795 Daisies (I used tangerine) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_showcat&l=1&cid=20922 Tangerine Paper Flowers Spray http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay

"Beautiful Layout" Featuring I Am Roses White Paper Flowers Spray

I am over the top happy that I get to join the I Am Roses Design Team for another term!  Thank you Bunma, I cannot wait to create more projects with your over the top gorgeous flowers!  I think with every project I make I get better and am more comfortable mixing it up and making these flowers my own. With this project I d ecided to color the flowers using distress ink.  For this layout I wanted an ocean color scheme and chose Tumbled Glass and Peeled Paint - they go well together and it was fun to see how each flower came out different and unique.  I also used the latest spray that I Am Roses carries - I love how this spray can stand on its own and how detailed it is - so perfect for those 12x12 layouts. Here are some up close photos and as always links to the flowers I used for this project and some other supplies I used.  You can visit I Am Roses here:  http://www.iamroses.com   I Am Roses Products used in this video Spray used in this video: http://www.iamroses.com/i

Addicted to Crepe Paper Embellishments

Just wanted to share my latest craze - ruffled party streamer with different Karlas001 trims, I love using the "Rina's Baaling" and flatback pearls. I love making these because they can be customized to any project you are making - you can use different colors of crepe paper and mix and match the centers. Thanks for checkin' in!
