Extravagant Yet Simple

I can't remember if I shared this one or not - lol!

This card involved a little embossing love, some Ranger Distress inks applied with a FIBi, beautiful Memory Box papers, and some lovely Hero Arts stamps.

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

A Butterfly Bookmark Card

I made a whole bunch of these quite some time ago and am just now getting around to sharing. I love this design because you can use it with a variety of colors and patterned papers!

The bookmark slides out of the card and has a thin Basic Gray magnet on the inside of its front and, and, on the inside of its back, one of those thick decorative staples (remember that giant stapler that was so popular several years ago?) so it will stay put inside a book.  

S U P P L I E S

Cardstock (Memory Box), Patterned Papers (My Mind's Eye); Stamps (Papertrey Ink); Inks: VersaFine (Tsukineko), Ranger Distress (Ranger); Stickles (Ranger); Felt (Giant Dwarf); Ribbon (generic); Dies (PTI, Memory Box); Tools: Swiss Dots embossing folder (Cuttlebug); corner rounder.  

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

The Craft's Meow - September Release - Day 4

Welcome to Day Four of the The Craft's Meow September Stamp Release! All five sets will be available for purchase on Saturday, September 21!

Today's stamp set is called Little Angles and it's designed by Clare Buswell. 

I decided to do a little paper-piecing. And I used some of that... Flower Soft (?) on the angel's wings. Messy, but effective - although I'm pretty sure there's probably some specific way to glue all that flakiness into place that is probably much better than my own method involving gobs o' glue and much swearing!
