I Am Roses Project - "Love" Layout

I have had this fabulous Prima paper in my stash for a while, I remember how excited I was when it first came out.  This paper also came with matching chipboard shapes with glitter detail - chipboard shapes are one of my favorite embellishments (next to flowers of course!). 

  • Prima Paper - Raspberry Tea Collection "icy sweet", "peach cobbler"
  • Prima Paper - Strawberry Kisses Collection "Raspberry Lemonade"

It was time to break out this paper and create!  With so many yummies in my stash it was hard to narrow down exactly what I would use in this layout.  I accented the paper with my most favorite Karlas001 Etsy crystal leaves, tea dyed Prima lace, Prima Lovely burlap leaves in brown and a Prima Say It In Pearls center for the gardenia.


I also tried a new technique by coloring the stems of the flowers with Lindy Stamp Gang Dark Chocolate Truffle Stain.  The stems come in green but for this layout I wanted to color all the stems a deep chocolate brown to match the layout more.  The stems take on the color very well, I dipped them in the LSG container and also used a paintrbrush - super easy and I love the results. 


Now for the flowers - LOTS to choose from but I narrowed it down to 9 different kinds!!!  I wanted this to be a lush special layout so I pulled out my favorites!!!!  Fellow design team member Bona (livelovescrap on YT, http://www.keeponscrappin.blogspot.com) had gifted me some Curly Roses...I have to say I LOVE them...they had a different texture and different shape which I love!!! I used THREE of them on this layout.  I quickly ordered some Soft Pink and Baby Blue Curly Roses after I found out I loved them so much - can't wait to use them on future layouts.


Now to the flowers...

Clearly Besotted: Countdown Teaser, Day 1

Hi Everyone! Rina here, guesting for one of my favorite companies, Clearly Besotted .  I sure ADORE their plushy stamps and all of their cute images, and SCENES.  I absolutely had a blast making this fun shaker card.  I know we are all dreaming of spring, but I do love making some fun winter cards. These sea babies are the cutest, I feel like I love the manatee the most (which, I thought was a walrus but I digress, LOL). This stamp set is called "Sea You Plushies" and will be available on April 1st on the Clearly Besotted online store and Simon Says Stamp. I love that there are 2 of each animal.  Of course I like using all the stamps.  Which is your favorite? Its super easy to make a fun shaker frame by taking a basic rectangle die smaller than your card base and making a frame.  I like to make sure the double sided foam tape I am using fits easily onto my frame.  I filled my shaker with some leftover white foam balls from the holidays.  I also added mini gold st

Mama Elephant's #celebrating6years Anniversary Event

Happy Anniversary Mama Elephant!! This release is super SPECTACULAR and I was so happy to work with the Cool Penguins stamp set!  The set comes with the most adorable penguins getting ready to wrap some holiday gifts.  I used the Basic Rectangles die set to create a window opening as these penguin friends are going to wrap their gifts together.  I also really adore the sentiment that comes with the stamp set. I wanted to keep the coloring super simple on this card and used a few light colored Copic markers.  My favorite Copics are the ones that end in 0000 and 000 because I can achieve a light almost watercolor look.   Here are the colors I used: B00, RV02, RV23, YR00, YR000 To finish off the card I wanted to add the star banner from the  Sentiments from a Yeti  stamp set, its one of my all time favorite stamps.  The set also comes with a banner that is oh so cute.  I love stars on a background and used the Lots of Stars Creative Cuts die.  I ink blend
