Smiles

I have a special card for you today. It uses one of SRM Stickers' Summer CHA 2012 release called Labels by the Dozen. They have 3 collections with pastels, brights and holiday colors. I got to play with them so I can make samples for their Reveal party. These labels are great for quick projects. But I used it here as a focal point of my card. It's a little note for my daughter.
LBD Pastels
I accessorized my card with some of my favorite things, including my newest TCM stamp sets, Stitched Flowers and Stitched Sentiments. I colored the flower with Copics I used Cosmo Cricket's Evangeline papers and of course, Want2Sscrap's swirly pearls.

Ink Splatter Card #3

I'm sharing the 3rd card in my Want2Scrap Silhouette - Old Time Tricycle with the Ink Splatter technique series of cards. This one is super simple. As with my first two cards, I used the silhouette as a stencil. I stitched the panel onto the card front.

I felt like those big wheels needed some bling, so I adhere some Want2Scrap Swirls - Silver Rhinestone - Package of 2 - 4" x 4" on top. Small strips of chipboard, lace and sentiment (from The Craft's Meow's Simply Delightful set) decorated with 3 rhinestones (from Want2Scrap Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones- Self Adhesive) finish the card.

Simple Vintage Thanks

I have a quick post and card for you today that uses Penny Black's big gorgeous flower stamp, paired with SRM Stickers sentiment. It's a super simple card to make with only stamping and utilizing stickers for a sentiment.

For You Poppies

Today's card is something that I share on the SRM blog earlier. It uses another beautiful Penny Black stamp and SRM Fancy Stickers. I made my own tag and inked the edges. The poppy was inked using the small pad.
PB-SRM-2
I highlighted the sentiment using some Spellbinders dies. The papers are October Afternoon. And some Want2Scrap bling on the side completes it.

Ink Splatter Card #2 and a Contest/Giveaway

If you came here for the Spellbinders' Summer Spectacular Blog Frenzy, please scroll down below or click HERE.

Hi, friends. I'm taking a computer break for several days, so this is a pre-scheduled post. In fact, I have a scheduled post almost every day. Let's hope blogger won't fail me :). While I'm away, let's have a giveaway, shall we? It's been a while since I had one and I missed my 3rd blog anniversary a couple of months ago.

Simply leave me a comment on my blog posts (one comment per post per person) from today until July 5th. I will pick 4 winners from the comments left on my blog to win the following prizes (one winner per prize).
Layers of Color's Sweet Silhouettes stamp set (retired)

A note about claiming your prize:
Everybody is welcome to comment and be eligible to win. I will announce the winners on  July 6 right here. Due to the number of prizes being given away on my blog and my dependence on my mom to do the shipping, I have to ask that the winners email (via Contact tab above) me with their info within 4 days (till July 10) in order to claim the  prize. This will help with organization and avoiding confusion. Thanks for understanding!

Finally, please consider liking the following Facebook pages.  The last 3 listed are companies that provided some of the prizes being given away today, so you don't miss the latest news and happenings:

Now onto my card...I'm showing you today my 2nd card using the Want2Scrap Silhouette - Old Time Tricycle with the ink splatter technique. As with my first card, I used the silhouette as a stencil. I just love the results, which give the illusion of multiple layers, esp with that collage patterned paper by Prima.
W2S-Card2
I layered the card front with Want2Scrap Manilla tag which was stamped with The Craft's Meow's Simply Delightful stamp set. I added small banner strips from paper scraps on top of that. The sentiment is Want2Scrap Chipboard Sentiments- Words of Love covered in white pigment ink. A vintage brad and some Want2Scrap Swirls, Finesse - Silver Rhinestones - 2 Pack - Self Adhesive finish the card.
W2S-Card2det
I have two more cards to show you using the same silhouette shape. In the meantime, enjoy your day!
