Here is my project. I hope you like it. 

I have altered a paint brush. I used the Words of Wisdom stamp set from Verve Stamps.  I started off with a paint brush from Home Depot. I painted it with gesso. I then used a few Masks and some modeling paste to create a background.  I then painted it with some acrylic paint. I used some black dabber paint and pounced it randomly on the brush.  I used some Lindys Stamp gang spray in Toto's tornado black and Dark chocolate truffle.

 I used the new Prima Vintage Vanity paper. I randomly put the paper on with some glue n seal. I used some chicken wire chipboard from Blue Fern Studios. I painted them with some washed out blue paint. I used some cheesecloth and sprayed it with some South Shore Sand Lindys spray. I used some seam binding that I sprayed with the Toto's Black. I used some lace from The Piece by Piece and I dry brushed some white and blue paint on it. I used some random flowers

Happy Birthday

I have a card to share with you.  

I recently won a stamp reveal giveaway from Annabelle Stamps. I just had to use them right away. 

I used this weeks sketch as a guide. I used the new Backgrounds stamp set and the Timeless set. I used the dots and I used Lindys Pearl embossing powder so you can barely tell they are there on the bottom banner. I then used the Timeless stamp set and stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment.  I added some May Arts ribbon and some butterflies. 

Thank you for stopping by. 

Smile.

I have a super cute card to share with you. 

I used my Cameo to cut out the butterfly easel card. I used Graphic 45 Ladies Diary paper. I just inked the edges with some Prima chalk ink. I layered the butterflies together and just using adhesive in the middle so that the butterflies have a little bit of dimension. I used some May arts ribbon and seam binding and tied a bow and then layered a Prima flower on top of that. The stamp set I used is the Celebration of Thanks from Verve Stamps. I used the Banner bundle die set to cut out the banner shape that I stamped my sentiment on. For the inside I just used some gorgeous lace from The Piece by Piece.

Breath taking moments.

Hi everyone. I have a layout to share with you. I made this layout for Verve Stamps and the OUAS challenge this month. 

I used the gorgeous Prima Delight paper collection. I used some of the stickers, and flowers from the collection. I started off  by placing my papers and embellishments about where they were going to go I outlined around it with a pencil and then I  used a prima mask and some modeling paste. I then used Verve Stamps to stamp hearts and little words around the page. The stamp sets I used are So Fluttery and Hundred Hearts. After that dried I started layering. The Banner bundle set & the Flag die set from Verve stamps.  I used some cheese cloth, lace from TPBP, Prima chipboard pieces. I used some chipboard pieces from Leaky Shed Studios and Lots of Ingvild Bolmes resin pieces. 

You can find a video tutorial here. (If the video is not live please keep checking back through out the day.) 

My Journaling is on the back side. 

It says :

Life. Such a great and wonderful thing. As a mother I cherish each laugh, every hug and I love you. But there are moments in life that take our breath away. One day I may forget an exact moment but my heart will never forget. Loving my kids is such a joy and I will never forget the joy they bring to my heart. I may forget those sweet moments as we bake cookies or those time we dressed up but that feeling in my heart the warm happiness they bring will always be there. I will never forget the happiness in my heart.
