Have A Magical Birthday- a mixed media card

Hi!

How are you all today?  I am guesting over at the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge Blog this month and have a project to share!  The inspiration was really fun:

I love the pastel colors and all the texture!  Here is what I made:

I know, I could have went with the Easter theme but I didn't start with the stamps- I started with a triangle shaped Gelli Plate!  I loaded it up with some springtime colored Distress Paints and stamped a background.  I also played around with a pattern scraper.  It added some texture to the triangle impressions.  Once those were dry, I cut the paper down to card front size and added some texture paste with one of my Teresa Collins stencils.  I also gave it a good splattering of gold mist to add some shimmer.

Once it was done, I knew I had to pull out Waffle Flower's Magical Stamp Set! I stamped out the horse and added her wings.  I cut her out and then added some a soft shading of color along her main and tail.  I also added some sparkle to her wings with a Wink of Stella pen.  You can see some of the details here:

I stamped the first part of the sentiment onto vellum with Staz On ink.  Then I used the Magical Word Die to cut out the second part.  I cut it out of black cardstock and covered it in black Elizabeth Crafts glitter.  It gives off a lot of sparkle in real life!

I'm so glad I got to play along with the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge this month!  Pop over to check out what their design team created!  I hope you'll play along too-  Waffle Flower Crafts is sponsoring the prize this month so if you play along, there is a chance to win a gift certificate to the Waffle Flower Store!

A Good Stuff Card For Waffle Flower

Hello!  I have a fun card featuring some awesome new stamps from Waffle Flower Crafts to share with you today!  This one features the new Good Stuff Stamp Set and Die as well as the Magical Word Die:

I stamped the outline of the jar and bow from the the Good Stuff Stamp Set.  I stamped the background inside of the jar and then added snowflakes from the Magical Stamp Set and Holiday Labels-Merry Stamp Set.  I also stamped the colored part of the lid.  My colors came from the Winter Blend Ink Pad.  I colored my bow red with a Copic marker leaving some white space on purpose to match the rest of the design.  I diecut everything out using the Good Stuff Die.
To add a little sparkle, I diecut the Magical Word Die from silver glitter paper.  I love this stuff!  :)  I also splattered glue and glittered it on my background for even more sparkle!

I have always loved jar stamp sets so of course the Good Stuff Stamp Set is right up my alley!  I can think of so many fun ways to use this one!  Pop over to the Waffle Flower Blog to see what the rest of the team did with it and the other sets out today!
