Creative Paperclay Butterfly Tile


Using Creative Paperclay with rubber stamps lets you create very cool embellishments for your paper projects.  I used a stamp from Hampton Arts to stamp into a slab of Creative Paperclay to make this tile.  After it was dry, I covered the entire piece with black Distress Stain, to get into the details.  In the recessed butterfly area, I used Wow Embossing Powder in Bay Area Blue (which is a transparent powder).  This gave kind of an enameled look.  Finally, I rubbed Viva Gold Decor over the raised areas.

Happy Day Mini Album

I just finished working on this mini-album, and just couldn't wait to share it with you! Can you tell I'm ready for spring? LOL!  I just got some new Wow Embossing Powders, and they were perfect for this project. I used the Suzy West Bubble Gum and Opaque Pastel Pink Regular.  The two colors coordinated great together. I embossed the butterfly in the Bubble Gum, and then painted over the desing with Creative Inspirations paints.  Then, I just took a damp paper towel and wiped away the paint from the embossed areas. I hope this inspires you to have a happy day!

Baby Boy Card


I've got another Center Step card to share with you today.  I adjusted the size a little bit, so that my side panels would be large enough to accomodate the sweet little babies from my G45 paper.   The baby carriage was stamped onto the patterned paper with Memento Ink, and then stamped and embossed in white, with the carriage cut out and popped up to add dimension. I stamped a flower and then added layers of die-cut flowers that I had shaped using the McGill tools.  By the way - the new Spellbinders are now in at Scrap-mart along with so many other wonderful goodies - so be sure to check it out!
