Graciellie Design New Release & Giveaway - 2nd Post

Happy Monday!! I hope you had a wonderful first weekend in April!! Hopefully you had the chance to join us on Friday for the Graciellie Design New Release and & Giveaway featuring Graciellie Design’s Digital Stamps. If not, there is still time to hop along for a chance to win a digital stamp of your choice. You can start the hop at Gracie's blog HERE.

I am showcasing Gracie's new digital stamp set called True Direction.

For my card, I selected papers from Craft and You and made a pocket card with a pull-out tag featuring one of the beautiful quotes from this set.

The image was cut out with a Memory Box Stitched Circle die. It was placed over a Die-Versions Whispers On the Trail die. The tag was created with Taylored Expressions Tag Stacklet dies. The ribbon is from DL.ART.

The butterflies fluttering about are My Creative Time dies covered in glitter. I printed the image a second time and fussy cut it to give the flowers dimension.

I used a clear Wink of Stella marker to give the petals a subtle shine. I am entering this in the following challenges:

1) Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
2) Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
3) Pause, Dream Enjoy Linky - Anything Goes
4) 2 Creative Chicks - Anything Goes

It's time for a new blog hop featuring Graciellie Design’s Digital Stamps. Gracie's stamps are so versatile and today I have the chance to share a card with you using one of her new sets called True Direction.

For my card, I selected papers from Kaisercraft and then colored the image to match.

The image was cut out with a Memory Box Stitched Square die and then placed over a Spellbinders Captivating Square die. Both layers were popped up with foam tape. A Taylored Expressions Banner Stacklets die was used for the sentiment.

Graciellie Design Blog Hop & Giveaway

This is my second post of the day - for the DL.ART February Linky, click HERE

Today we've come together to celebrate the relaunch of Graciellie Design’s Digital Shop. Gracie has come up with new digital stamp sets designed for cardmaking, scrapbooking, journaling, mixed media and even home decor. Today I’m sharing a couple of cards using one of her beautiful new sets, called Angel Wings.

The wings are so beautiful!! I love the sentiments, too :)

For my first card, I started with papers from Craft and You, distressing the edges with a Zutter DIA. The beautiful wings were cut with a Spellbinders Opulent Ovals die. An XCut Doily die was layered underneath. The sentiment was cut with a My Craft Spot Banner Die (no longer in business). The crinkle ribbon is from DL.ART. The flowers and pearl stems are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

I added texture paste through a TCW Harlequin stencil. Memory Box Chloe Stems and Impression Obsession Heart Stems were tucked beneath the frame.

The butterflies are from Impression Obsession. They were covered with Starfire glitter from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

I am entering this in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
2. Simon Says Stamp Work it Wednesday - Something New (Papers and DL.AR Ribbon)
3. 2 Creative Chicks - Anything Goes
4. Pause, Dream Enjoy Linky - Anything Goes
5. Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
6. Jo's Scrap Shack - Funday Friday - Anything Goes
7. Little Scrap Pieces Show It Off Saturday - Anything Goes

For this card, I used papers from Maja Designs. The wings were cut with a Spellbinders Gold Circles die, layered over an XCut Doily die. Distress Inks in Broken China, Tumbled Glass and Weathered Wood were used to ink the circle. Memory Box Chloe Stems, Marianne Designs Leaves and Poppystamps Viola Leaves were tucked among the blooms. The butterfly is a My Craft Spot die (no longer in business). The sentiment was cut with a Memory Box Stitched Square die. The ribbon is from DL.ART.

I added clear Wink of Stella to the wings to give them a subtle shine.

Hamilton Celebrates!!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!! Wow, what is up with Mother Nature?? The (awesome) 60's yesterday and now the forecast calls for snow today...with a low of 8!! My gosh, she is fickle :)

Most of you know I don't usually do digi's. I just don't have the patience to learn to color. But when my sweet friend Naomi of Creative Bug on the Loose started a challenge to launch her new Creative Bug Digital Snapshots store, I had to participate :)

She has several adorable digis to choose from, and she will send one to you to use in the challenge. I had a hard time choosing, but finally decided on "Hamilton Celebrates".

For my card, I used paper from Basic Grey's Shine On paper stack. The base and first layer are Spellbinders Grand Labels One dies. The edges were sanded to bring out the embossing. The next two layers are Spellbinders Decorative Labels One and Labels One. The grass is a My Creative Time Stitched Grass die.

Here is adorable Hamilton!! He was colored with a Tim Holtz Tattered Rose Distress Marker and a TH Waterbrush. The clouds were inked with Broken China Distress Ink. The balloons were colored with Spiced Marmalade, Peacock Feathers and Barn Door Distress Markers and a waterbrush. A TH Dot Face stencil was placed over the balloons and they were inked with the same colors of Distress Inks. The balloons were then cut out and popped up for dimension.

Four dies from My Craft Spot's Tiny Doily dies were used for the sentiment. The sentiment and balloon are from My Craft Spot's Stamping All Around Spring set.

A Spellbinders Charmed I'm Sure tag was used for this sentiment from My Craft Spot's Tiny Tags 1 set. A Die-Versions Buttons die was used for the button. The gorgeous crinkle ribbon is from my dear friend Karen of Little Scrap Pieces.

I am entering this in the following challenges:

1. Creative Bug on the Loose New Beginnings Challenge
2. My Craft Spot Monday Challenge #128 - Cute Critters
3. Craftin Desert Divas - Birthday
4. DL.Art - March Linky
5. Every Day is an Occasion - March Linky
6. Just B Creative Crazy - March Linky
7. Word Art Wednesday #121 - Anything Goes
8. Funday Friday #40 - Anything Goes
9. House of Cards March Challenge #1 - Cute or Shabby - Add a Button

Thanks so much for stopping by :)
