Tim Holtz Configurations + Melting Pot + Sunshine Broadcast Sassafras Lass Paper + I Am Roses = super fun project!!!!  Loved diving in to some of my favorite supplies and creating this really beachy chic shadow box. I used a huge arsenal of I Am Roses flowers: 0.50 Inch White Paper Roses (Round Shape) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22187&pid=81351 0.50 Inch White Paper Roses (Curly Shape) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=22192&pid=55322 White Open Rose Buds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=23255&pid=261612 White Semi Open Rose Buds http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=20624&pid=80876 Mixed Yellow Tone Roses (Currently Out of Stock) http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=12981&pid=83270 3 Inch "Artichoke" http://www.iamroses.com/index.php...

** 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 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...

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 thi...

So I'm in LOVE with the new Teresa Collins Christmas Home paper....decided to get a jump start on the holidays and start my Christmas projects NOW!!!!  I had so much fun creating the Haunted Hallows layout that I decided to create another 12x12.  12x12's are challenging for me and I do not really do them, I decided to challenge myself and create a couple (...hope you follow my YouTube channel (scrapstress), because there are MORE to come!, hint hint)  I also wanted to use some non traditional Christmas flowers to accent my layout.  I used Red, Black, White and Green flowers in different styles to match the colors in my layout. I LOVE the way this came out.  I love this time of year because Christmas and Halloween layouts are the best, the new paper coming out is so LUSCIOUS, I almost feel like doing these themey projects all year round...WHY wait!!!  Here are some pictures, click on the picture for a better view: Here are the I Am Roses f...

Halloween is just around the corner (gasp!) and what better way to kick it off with a fun layout.  I just ordered the new Teresa Collins Haunted Hallows collection and knew I HAD to use it right away.  Traditional Halloween colors in super fun designs with a TC flair, I loved working with this paper and this project came together so easily. Note to self - USE PAPER YOU LOVE TO CREATE!  Also wanted to use a lot of the supplies that I had not gotten the opportunity to play with yet.  I busted out some Tim Holtz Dies and Sizzlits along with a super fun My Favorite Things banner trio die and it was ON!  Also, paired these with black glitter paper and voila! I wanted to create a "scene" with the Rickety House die and Branch Tree die so I used some 1.25 inch black roses to create a bush area.  Also, wanted to use some orange 0.75 inch flowers and black 0.25 inch to highlight one of the rosettes I created with the Tim Holtz Paper Rosette die. Here are the li...

Hi Everyone, Back with another I Am Roses project!  I wanted to create a card for an awesome friend and decided to make a "Just Because" card.  I love the idea of suprising someone "just because".  I have been really liking The Greeting Farm Miss Anya sets of stamps, they are super easy to color and super cute. Here I wanted to mix a citrus color with a neutral (I'm just SO into color these days).  Also, wanted to bust out my new bottle of Lindy Stamp Gang Starburst Stain in Dark Chocolate Truffle.  Love this color, it is very deep, rich and the perfect shade of luscious brown.  I used it to paint the petals of the I Am Roses Puffy Daisies.  Products featured in this vid: - Mixed Sizes: Orange and Tangerine http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_show_pro_detail&cid=20912&pid=87432 - Puffy Daisies http://www.iamroses.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=cat_showcat&l=2&cid=22988 - 0.75 Inch Orange and Tan...
