Technique Tuesday: Split Negative

This is one of the coolest techniques...  usually it's done with a big flower or butterfly.  I think it works with the tree from Lovely as a Tree stamp set.





July Monthly Stamping Class Projects

Today I am sharing a photo of my class projects from my July Stamping Class.  More pictures and details coming on these projects.


I made these cute little lollipop treats as my class freebies for everyone who attended.







Stamping with Scraps: Butterfly and Squares

I had these little pieces of Crisp Cantaloupe lying around and I found this butterfly and walla!  A new card.  The butterflies and the splatter add a nice touch to give the card depth.




Throwback Thursday: Chineese Fold Box

This was a Chineese Fold Box I made for a co-worker's birthday.  I filled the inside of the box with Hershey Chocolate Kisses.  The flowers on top really make this box special.





July Stamping Class Sneak Peak

As I prepare for my July Stamping Class this Friday, I wanted to share a sneak peak of one the projects...I can't stop using the Flower Shop and Petite Petals stamp sets and punches...  it's colorful and I think the girls will love it!

 




Technique Tuesday: Shattered Glass

Today I am sharing the Shattered Glass Technique.  This one is an oldie but goodie... I love the way the Navy and the Mustard colors look together.  The white lines are so vibrant... almost looks like the Crayon Resist Technique.  Hope this inspires you today!!





Color Combo Challenge: The Open Sea

Today's "Color Combo Challenge" is definitely a challenge for me because these are colors that are not part of my comfort zone.  I normally would not work with these colors together.  I usually go with elegant and understated, but sometimes you have to step out of the box and try new things.  And it always works if you keep it simple.
