Make it Monday: 12x12 Prom 2016 Layout

Hello Creative Friends!

Today's Make it Monday is a single page 12x12 Layout.  I chose the theme of my page to be Prom 2016 because my son is a senior this year and we have been getting ready by reserving a tux and ordering a corsage.

I started with a Whip Cream background and chose Black Licorice and Cool Pool as my secondary colors.  The small strips of black and white pattern is a retired paper (you know I have to use up those scraps!).

Don't you just love how elegant this dress is?!!!  It is from the Beautiful Bride set  that is in the Spring into Summer Mini, and I thought it would be perfect for this page.

See that butterfly, it is from the Summer Wings wood pieces from the new catalog.  Even better is that they are a Bloom Benefit that you receive with your $50 purchase!!!  Love getting rewarded for shopping!

I have listed the measurements and names of the products I used below.

Make it Monday: Wallpaper Stamping with the Note-elope

Hi Creative Friends!

Today's Make it Monday is created using the "Note-velope" die.  This fun die is great to make a small note or gift with.  It is also part of the March "Lucky Me" sale- that means it is 20% off !!!  I am combining it with the "Out Fishing" stamp set.

              Inside of "Note-velope"

              Outside of "Note-velope"

Here is a short video of the process to create this masculine card.

Make it Monday: Glass Bloom Birthday

This week I am adding a new theme to my Monday Blog post, "Make it Monday". Each Monday I will post a card with the directions so that you can make it at Home!  I will also have the pre-stamped kit available in my Etsy shop!

This week's project is a elegant birthday card.
 

I used the rose and pansies from the Glass Blooms set to create a beautiful corner focal point.  The great thing about this card is that you can change up the colors to make it unique for whom ever you are giving it to.

I started by stamping the rose  in the bottom right corner.  

 

 

To get the pansies behind the rose, I used a technique called masking.  You stamp your foreground image onto a scrap of paper(I use a post it note so there is some sticky to hold it in place).

 

Then you cut around your sticky note image.  You place the sticky not image on top of the image in your card and stamp everything you want in the back ground on top of the sticky note.

 

After you are finished stamping, you remove your mask to reveal your layered image!

 

I just love this technique because it gives your cards depth with out having to add layers!
