Mixed Media Day Green Team 14-9

March 4-March 10
Weekly Challenge - Butterflies

This week we are creating with BUTTERFLIES over at Cuttin' and Stampin'.  Michele from Stuff By Belle here and for me butterflies mean spring even though I tend to use them all year long on every type of project.  :)

We are using Teresa Collins Daily Stories collection  and Paper Smooches Flap Happy, both of which you can find at the Cuttin' and Stampin' facebook store.

I am sharing a small spring basket I made with a cut from my Cameo.

I inked all the edges of the basket pieces before I wove it together to create some contrast, painted some chipboard butterflies (from the Teresa Collins Daily Stories collection) with distress paint in spun sugar and picket fences that were also dolled up with perfect pearls and I used my I-top to create brads with paper from the collection as well.

I also used a Tim Holtz die to cut the flowers, yep! using the Daily Stories, that I attached to the basket.

The little decorative tag and the body of the basket are both stamped using distress paint and a little butterfly from the Flap Happy Paper Smooches stamp set.

You still have a couple of days to get your project using butterflies linked up on our challenge blog.  I can't wait to see what you create!

Until next time...get inky often!



Pocket Thursday!

 I have used Teresa Collins "Daily Stories" paper and Paper Smooches "Flap Happy" stamp set. And I love it! This is a tiny adorable card (3x4) that I am going to place into my Disney book to explain our itinerary!

Green Team Step-By-Step Week 14-9 - Butterflies

The team is still celebrating and hoping for spring with our challenge this week. We have used Teresa Collins "Daily Stories" paper and Paper Smooches "Flap Happy" stamp set.  Make sure you enter your creation with a butterfly into our challenge and also remember to visit the Cuttin' and Stampin' store HERE to get all your spring scrapping supplies.

I'm here with this week's Step-by-Step installation and I absolutely LOVE {love} love this paper and stamp set!  I actually had inquired about it a few weeks before I found out it was the one we were featuring!!  I was super excited to get to play with it!!  This paper is absolutely gorgeous too!!  I need to get some more for myself!

For this week's step-by-step I will show how to get the charm on the bow.  First off, the card I made was done so using a sketch I had pinned some time ago....so long ago that I couldn't get a link to it, but had to take a pic of my computer screen! LOL

I modified it to fit on a card.  The sentiment block was hand drawn and fussy cut until it looked right.  Just play with it, use a pencil until it's right.  That's what I did......erased alot!!  It's not perfect, but it doesn't need to be! =D

Then I inked the edge with my handy dandy tool, that I am not exactly sure where I got it, but I think it was originally to be used for chalks.  I added a new pom-pom and dabbed it in the distress ink.  It works great to get in the nooks and crannies that a normal hard pad wouldn't be able to get to.

Then I assembled the card.....when it came time for the bow, I loosely tied it in order to shimmy the first jump ring into place.  Jump rings can be purchased at any craft store (I'm pretty sure).  I got mine in the jewelry section and there was about a bazillion in there, so I won't need some for a little while.

Open up the ring, slide it in the ribbon loop.  Open up another ring, slide it on the charm, then onto the other ring already on the ribbon.

Pull the ribbon tight and there you have it!

Thanks for visiting us here and enjoy the rest of your week!
