I was inspired by Deb Valder, an SU demo on Stampin’ Connection, to create this card.  I changed a few things and this is what I came up with.  Hope you like it. OOPS! just noticed I lost one of the pearls on the bottem of the wreath, so just imagine there are 3 there.  LOL

I used our multi purpose adhesive sheets (pg 160) to put this together.  Just layer it with a piece of whisper white CS and then apply your 1/2″ strips, butted up to each other.  Cut to your specifications or use the Big shot.  You get 12 sheets of 12X12 adhesive.  An incredible buy that will last forever.

04. November 2012 · Comments Off on Cheese Cloth background W/ faux bow! · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , ,

New technique.  I found a piece of cheese cloth in with my supplies and thought before I toss this maybe I can think of something to do with it.  So I wet it and spread it out on the white card stock.  I then took champagne shimmer paint mixed with rubbing alcohol and spritzed it on the cheese cloth.  When I lifted the cheese cloth from the card stock, it left a really cool background which I used on this card and for the faux bow.  What do you think?

My Granddaughter’s 7th birthday invitations (front & back).  Her mother Amy (who is also a demonstrator) made these invitations for Mary Pat’s sleepover.  I just love them and think she did a great job!   Of course, had it been at my house, pick up next day would have been at 9AM. She is very brave! LOL

If you can believe it, this is the first time I have ever purchased a Snowflake stamp set.  Stampin’Up! has had many sets in the past but they just never did anything for.  Except for this set and I knew I HAD to have it.  So pretty!  I do believe you could use any color on these snowflakes and they would still look gorgeous!  I just hope they keep this set around for a while.
