Life is a Song, SING IT!!!

I love great quotes and would adore having a few of them framed and hanging on my walls. This got me thinking and my mojo kicked up a gear. I'm here today to share with you a card I created using the Spooky Iron Shelf and Potion Bottle Mini dies from the Scrapping Cottage.


I wanted to show you today how easy it is to use some of the holiday dies for different occasions. For the Shelf; I embossed it with a wrought iron embossing powder to give it an antique feel.The Potion bottle is colored with a bit of Faber Castell Metallic Pitt Pens. I paired the dies up with some beautiful Websters Pages papers and a stamp from Unity Stamps. To give the bottle a porcelain look, I covered it with Helmar Acid Free Glue.And that beautiful cardstock is the Mountain Rose Glimmer paper from Paper Temptress

This is piece that I came up with. And to think, I used Halloween dies. Whodda Thunk!!!

Hope you enjoy.

Try using holiday dies for other occasions. The possibilities are truly endless. Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you all have a fantastic week.

Until next time

Magic

I love the color palette of the peacock. There is truly something so magical about the combination. So much so, that it inspired my newest blog design. So I thought what better way to create than to use the proud bird as inspiration.

Hi everyone, I'm here today to share with you a card I created using the Stack-a-Bellies Paisleys from Basically Bare. I used the chipboard pieces and painted 2 black, 1 with Broken China Crackle paint and the smallest with Organic Garden Glimmer Glam. Then I stacked them up, added some white/black marker doodles and some Stickles and a pretty Peacock Paisley was born.

The Stack-a-Bellies embellishments are perfect for every project. They really add dimension and hold paint mediums so well. Grab some Paisley Stack-a-Bellies today and see where your imagination takes you. Until next time...



PS- I've got little Blog Candy giveaway going on right now and it includes some great Basically Bare goodies. Go check it out!!!
