DeNami Product Spotlight: Large Butterfly

Don't you love the Product Spotlights on the DeNami Blog?  SO fun to see the same stamp used so differently by my fellow Design Team Ladies.  This time we are using the new Large Butterfly cling stamp.  This stamp is 10% off for one week --- so drop it into your shopping cart quick.

Yep, I scrapbooked! I really wanted to show how this gorgeous stamp could be used on a scrapbook page.  My photo of my daughter is 5x7 and the page is 8 1/2 x 11.  I started with a green base layer.  I stamped the butterfly using Lime Versacolor onto a turquoise cardstock piece, layered onto orange cardstock and stitched.  I stamped the butterfly again using Versafine Black onto Orange cardstock, yellow dots, and pink patterned paper.  Added some turquoise rhinestones.  Can you see the other DeNami stamp I used... it's hidden.  I used a new cling set... the basic borders set was stamped using Cherry Pink Impress onto white... I handwrote my journaling inside of the dots.  LOVING the new twine DeNami is carrying. So fun!

Wee Memories Challenge: Source of Inspiration

Wee Memories Challenge this week is to use a Papercraft Magazine for Inspiration.

Oh My Crafts is the sponsor this week. 

The winner will receive a $15 Gift Certificate

My project was Inspired by a heart Doily card.  I found this huge doily on clearance at Walmart after Valentines Day, I think I got a pack of 10 for .87.   I thought the scalloped edge was in need of a pretty pink button treatment, so that is where I started.  Then, I literally just started pulling this and that and layering.  I found all of these elements and scraps on my desk. Yep, it's messy again!  This scrapbook page is crazy busy, not normally what I would make. I have a picture of my hubby and I scrapbooked, so I'm happy.  We rarely get our photo taken, just the two of us.  Normally we are lucky enough to have a kid or two squished in also.  So, grab a magazine or an idea book, get inspired, and link up your project to share with us at Wee Memories this week!

DeNami Wedding Card - 2 Sketches 4 You

DeNami Design is the sponsor this week at 2S4Y. So excited to participate in Kazan's awesome sketch and use some fun DeNami Stamps. I love this classic DeNami contempo couple. I normally would emboss it in silver, and make an elegant card. It has been a neglected stamp for the last 5 years so I wanted to pull it out & try something new. I dusted it off and decided to make a more funky and fun card by adding the aquamarine cardstock and fun rhinestones. I wanted the focal image to really stand out so I mounted it onto chipboard and added some punched out 1" circles around it. I had been scrapbooking earlier in the day and had used a large circle with the same concept on my page. I think I am finally getting to a stage in my crafting that my brain actually can use scrapbooking & card techniques interchangeably. The scrapbook page is green because that is my favorite color, and we bought it around my 30th birthday, so I claimed it as my birthday gift.
