Explore, Dream, Wish

Hi all, and welcome to October.
Today I'm sharing a little card I whipped up, using
 
 
 Here I used a 6x6 Hearts Ease Pattern Paper, which I randomly stamped the small pocket watch stamp over
 
 
 Take the large Pocket Watch and Hour Glass, stamp it onto white cardstock and then cut them out, I raised these with 3D foam dots, the our Hour Glasses 3D dots were doubled up, to make it a little higher than the Watch.
 
 
 Using the Words from the Stamp set, I created my title
  
 
 Have fun with these super stamp

Merry Merry Merry

 
 
Hello All,
OMG its getting close to Christmas, so today I'm having a little fun with
Couture Creations Christmas Eve Dies and Christmas Emporium Paper Pad
Here we go
 
My Layout 
 
 
 
 Here I fussy cut the bird and holly leaves form another sheet of Emporium Papers, and adheared it with 3D foam dots, I also add some Maraschino - 2mm Gemstones, over the berryies on the paper, just to add a little sparkle
 
 
 
Using the Be Merry Die, I cut 4 of the Merry, on in metalice gold card 3 in burgundy, one of the Burgundy one I used as a mask, just inking all around Merry 3 time on my base paper, then adhering the die cut Merry words, slightly down and forward of the masked word
 
 
 
 The Cuckoo Clock I simply cut the backing die in gold cardstock, and the front die pieces in Burgundy, and add a few Maraschino - 2mm Gemstones
 
 
Cutting 3 of the Hanging Ornamemts in gold card, I place these over the bottom of 2nd and 3rd photo mats, and add some more Maraschino - 2mm Gemstones
 
 

 Once all ellements, and a title are arranged, job down

Out and About

My goodness September all ready ladies
Today I'm sharing a layout, using the lovely
 
This one can get a bit messy, so have some wipes at hand
 
Layout

 
First I cut out, one of each Petite doily, place them randomly over my base cardstock, and gave them a spritz, then removed, them to show the masked doily, don't throug the Doilies away, let them dry.
when dry randomly place, over your base cardstock, using them as a stencil, wipe any type of texture paste over the doilies,
(add some Glitz'n and glamour, glitter or just about anything to add that bit of sparkle)



Now to make our petite doily flowers, again choose four or five different dioly dies, and cut out 3 of each, use the turbo glue pen, to dot a small amount of glue, to the centre of each set of die cuts, and layer them, place aside to let glue dry. Once dry, spritz with water and scrunch each layer in to the centre, repeat this on all your sets, allow to dry a little, the gently open up your flowers.

Here I've added a favourite, from the Everyday Essentals collection; Strawbery leaf, on the leaves I dotted some Glitz'in Glamour Gold

 
 simply cut serval Petite Doilies in half and clued them behind my matted photo

 
 
And we're done, once you add a title, and any other bits and pieces, you may wish to add
