Smell of Spring with IBS

I adore nature photos and flowers are my most favorite ones. So when you have great photos of roses and the best possible rose stamps, making a nice layout is easy. So here is my Inspired by Stamping today's post.

This lo was made in a kind of light Mixed Media style, with some masking, misting, texture and a lot (like 18) stamped roses from 2 different sets ( Elegant flowers and Vintage roses set) to make the outer paper background. I stamped over IBS  new Vintage Roses paper pad  and then misted all of my stamped and hand cut roses with a gold mist.

As you can see IBS images are not for card only. You can  make magic with them over your scrapbooking pages too.

Love forever card

So this is a short month and I still craft a lot. My third post for today as I just want this card to be added to a few challenges and just because...
I made it with almost a full set of Unity  oldies but goodies that I really love and for their Flair with Unity showcase, for Creative embellishments mood board and with their goodies and for Create blog wood veneer challenge.

And some more challenges too

You rock around the clock

My new lo made with Die- Versions most fabulous new release dies and my grandson's  rocking photo. 

I made  this conbined title with 3 cuts of YOU ROCK and then added Around the clock .

I used 3 different Musical dies on this page, most were  die cut several times.

Then music waterfall die was cut  from black and white cardstock and layered to one shaded layer.
The musical tree was highlighted with black enamel paint over the music notes.

The 3 times die cut title was heat embossed with red embossing powder and adhered on 3 corners th make this visusal triangle.

Sweet Stamps Favorite colors challenge

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to  Sweet Stamps Favorite colors challenge.
It was really hard for me to decide about my favorite crafting color, so I decided to make a project with " vintage" colors and gold- so trendy those days- is sure one of my recent faves.
The background die cut was made with CLD die. The stamped image was hand cut and glued over the frame. Then I made this embellishment cluster and added Globecraft and Piccolo heat  embossed heart charm and a key to this heart.

I hope you like my card and will enter our weekly challenge with adorable prizes to win!
See you soon!

Better dream shaped card

It was quite a long time since I made a shaped card. I don't really like them as some of those shapes  don't fit any " normal" envelope. But then why not? It's not so different from the regular shapes when it's just a fancy huge die cut label fold into half.
Actually there are  4 die cuts over one single card. And then  I added one great sentiment and this card was done. Kind of done.

This Inspired by Stamping sentiment is so right and so perfect for anyone!
But then I had to add some embellishments too as I can't leave the card so clean and simple. So I stamped a trendy globe and a hand with Vintage findings IBS set and cut them out ; die cut those very trendy feathers, added some pearls and hearts and a die cut word Life and now this was just perfect.
