Embossing and Crayon

Happy Wednesday to you.  Hope your day is going well!! This is the second card I made using crayon and and embossing folder. 

The paper I used is from my scrap pile. The stamp is from CTMH.

Hope your day is Fabulous!!

Embossing Folder and Crayon

Happy Tuesday to you! I saw this technique on Pinterest.  I am sure you all have seen it but it's new to me so I thought I would give it a try.  You take a piece of CS and emboss it with an embossing folder.  You then run crayon over the embossed CS, add ink and the waxy crayon shines through. It was a fun technique.  All this week I will share the cards I made using these four pieces card stock (CS).

The top left piece was the first one I did and you can
see I didn't use enough crayon.  

For the  first card I used the green and orange CS on the left. 

 

I am sending these cards to the OWH so I didn't use any 3-D or bling.
Instead I made my own embellishments with punches and paper.

Thank you for stopping by have a super great day!!

God Bless our Soldiers.

Today is a day to honor all the men and women who gave their life for our freedom.  God Bless them ALL!! Today pray for all the soldiers and their families.

Just Ink!

Happy Friday to you. Today's cards are not one of my better creations. I almost didn't post them but then thought "What the heck they can't all be perfect".  LOL Besides, "Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder". What I think is some of my best work you may think Yuck!!!  

I took white CS and added inks using a sponge.
Then I stamped different images and sayings to the cards. 

This is how I came up with the card idea I did for OWH
 posted  on May 20th. Which are MUCH better
then these cards!!! LOL

Do you have any big plans for Memorial day weekend?  Don't forget to keep our brave soldiers and their families in your prayers.  Enjoy your weekend and be safe!

Butterfly Card

Good Morning. Hope your having a wonderful day! So how many of you will spend extra money to get FREE shipping or the FREE item a company is giving away?  A couple of weeks ago I went into the Hen House to buy some type I needed.  Charlene was runing a special if you bought $25.00 in product you received a 6x6 paper packet for free. So of course I couldn't pass up the FREE ($6.99) deal.  What should have been an $8.00 purchase ended being a $40.00 purchase. But I got some beautiful butterfly dies from Memory Box amoung other things.....hee hee.

The butterfly is make using two different dies.
The first die is the background of the butterfly
and the second is the top or overlay of the butterfly.
Of course Memory Box has several different over lays
so I purchased  two different ones. You can't have
to many butterfly overlays...LOL

Using my tape gun I added tape to the over lay to
attach it to the background butterfly.  I then added
the glitter. For the body of the butterfly I used the
Versamark and embossing power to make it shine. 

The purple CS is embossed with butterflies.

So good luck the next time you see that FREE offer and have a super great day!!!
