Beauty full day!


Hi there!
Jessica here with two cards to share with you this morning that I made using a couple of The Craft's Meow stamp sets: Happiness Is... and Fly Free for the sentiment on the second card.  I stamped the flowers and leaves and trimmed them to embellish the die cuts on both of my cards.

I went very simple with the layouts and embellishments because I wanted the red flower to pop and be the focal point of the card - it's so pretty!  I also wanted to keep them 'mail friendly' as it's getting pretty expensive to mail our cards out, isn't it? ;)


Have a BEAUTY full day!
Jessica

A Spring Birthday Card

Good morning!  Lin here to share a pastel birthday card with you today; it may be only January, but I'm ready for spring!



Fly Free

I love the Fly Free stamp set, and thought it would go well with these pastel papers.  I simply embossed the birdcage in white,  then framed it with a die-cut.  I stamped the sentiment in a light brown ink to keep things soft, and after putting my card together I just added some punched butterflies and a white paper rose. 

Hope you got some inspiration from my card today!  Come on back tomorrow to see a card by Nina.

We are also allowing backorders on the stamps in the event we run short, and expect to have supplies restocked within one week. Please order early to ensure you get yours first!

We now return to our regular programming. lol

  2. Lush 2 Turquoise Prize Package from My Mind's Eye!!! Includes one each of the patterned and flocked papers shown, plus all the accessories!!! Thanks again Nick!!!
  3. Sarah's Butterfly Kisses Card Kit!!!

Once again, the prizes will be awarded based on random drawing from the comments left on THREE of the Team blogs listed below! You won't know whose blog has the prize... neither do I, actually, until I draw from a hat...so you'll want to leave a comment on each blog for more chances to win. But please play fair... only ONE comment per blog!

You have until 11:00 pm Pacific tonight (May 1st) to make the rounds! The winners will be announced here tomorrow. 

But that's not all!!! One lucky person drawn from all comments made on this blog by 11:59 pm Pacific on Tuesday, May 3rd will win the entire May 1st Release!!! Yep, that's the four stamp sets and two card kits. Yowsers!!! 


For my card I chose to stamp the butterfly fairy and butterfly image on a kraft die cut butterfly in a light brown ink, and then randomly stamped the greeting in black.  The patterned paper is by Websters Pages mounted on kraft cardstock. I created the butterflies feelers with Zva pearls, and then added a bit of zig zag stitching to the corners. Very simple! This little stamp set makes a BIG impression, don't you think?

So off you go! Enjoy your first looks at Butterfly Kisses!!! All the blog links are provided below in case there's a break along the way. Since today is a blog hop, we're not showing peeks here... you will see them all by starting with Nina's blog and then linking along from there. 

I'll also be back tomorrow with the winners selected from those who Like our Facebook Page!

Enjoy the hop. And good luck!



P.S. If you're a winner and you've already purchased the stamps or kits you won, I will refund your money or send you a second set, whichever you prefer.
