More CDS Sneak Peeks! :)

Welcome back to the second half of Clear Dollar Stamp's February Sneak Peeks!

I have 3 more projects to share with you today.

The first card is done with the "Flower Bunny" Feb. SOTM set that I illustrated for Clear Dollar Stamps. It is available starting tomorrow and it's free with a $50.00 purchase!

There will be a Flower Bunny" SVG file available for download tomorrow, but I actually made this sample before the SVG was done so I had to do tons of hand cutting to pop the bunny up so much! 

The SVG will cut on the Cricut in about 15 seconds where it took me about a half hour! 

Really cool new product feature from CDS!

The shape behind the bunny was cut with Clear Dollar Stamp's "Designer Labels Die" set.

That drop dead gorgeous ribbon is Really Reasonable Ribbon's - Hydrangea Hand-dyed Silk.

The Roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The pretty cardstock is: Juniper Berry, Amethyst, and Heavenly White from The Paper Temptress.

The Gradient Pearl Stickers and Gradient Gem Brads are from Creative Charms.

The next card was done using a sweet set illustrated by Lauri Wilson called "You're Eggs-traordinary".

I chose to make it a sugared egg by adding some clear Martha Stewart - Crystal Fine Glitter to the entire egg.

The designer paper is from "The Best of K&Company" stack.
The cardstock is Azalea and Spring Larch from The Paper Temptress.
The Gradient Gem Stickers and Gradient Pearl Stickers are from Creative Charms.
The yellow rose is from Wild Orchid Crafts.
The beautiful ribbon is Really Reasonable Ribbon's ~ White Satin.

My final peek is this bookmark that I created with the beautiful new "Scriptures of Hope" set illustrated by Lori McCroskey.

Thanks so much for dropping by!

I would love to hear which of today's peeks is your favorite!

Hugs,

True :D

Faux Glass Flower Bookmark

Hello All!

Today I tried a new technique for making flowers.

These were hand punched from designer paper, detailed with Tombow markers, shaped, then coated with UTEE. I love the effect I got. If you click on the above photo to enlarge, you can get a really close look. The centers are yet another technique called "Faux Brads". I will gladly do a tutorial for both techniques if anyone would be interested.

I used Clear Dollar Stamp's "Heartfelt Sentiments" set to add an olive green watermark to the tan DP to pull some of the leaf color in. I also used a sentiment from the same set. It simply says "You're Fabulous".

That gorgeous, gorgeous  ribbon page marker at the top is a sample that Bonnie from "Really Reasonable Ribbon" sent me to play with. It is her "Wine Velvet Ribbon" and it feels scrumptious!

I entered this project in the following challenges:

Pile it On  ~ Get Creative with Cardstock

Practical Scrapper  ~ Use Flowers

Crafty Creations ~ Add Shine to Your Creations

Fresh Brewed ~ Anything Goes

I Did It Creations ~ Use Dimension

Bunny Zoe ~ Nice and Girly

Digi Doodle ~ Anything Goes

Crafty Creations ~ Shine and Bling

Crafty Ann's ~ Embossing

Sew Many Cards ~ Anything Goes

Caardvarks ~ Embossing

Speedy The Cat ~ Flowers
Paper Take Weekly ~ In Stitches
My Time To Craft ~ Zig Zag
I also entered it in WT276 and IC238 Split Coast Stampers challenges

Hope you will all check out the sneak peeks that are going on at Clearly iStamp right now. 

 I will have a peek to show you tomorrow done with one of my stamp illustrations. Hope you will come back and check it out!

I would love a quick comment to let me know if you like the flowers and if you would like me to work up a tutorial to share.

Hugs,

True :D
