JustRite CHA Winter Release-Butterfly Dreams!

Well CHA has started today, and I am a wee bit sad I couldn't be there with all the excitement of the new releases, and hanging out with my crafty friends! So instead I will be scrapping with friends here and posting a card that uses a brand new set from JustRite released just in time for CHA. The set is called Butterfly Dreams.  I embossed the swirl with white embossing powder and gave it a water color wash using my Twinkling H2O's. I used the Spellbinder's Labels's Twenty-Nine die to cut it out. The card base was created using Spellbinder's Decorative Labels Eight.  I stamped the sentiment in black and added a strip of red line tape, sprinkled it with glitter, and added 3 coordinating rhinestones. 

The butterfly was stamped twice.  The top later was given a coating of glossy accents.  When it was dry, I added a bit more glossy accents to the body and sprinkled it with glitter.  

Here is this beautiful set in its entirety.  I am anxious to use this set again!

Be sure to pop on over to the other designer's blogs for more ideas using this set!

Flowers...

Happy "Hump" Day to you! My house has been in a bit of discord this week. Kyle is going through finals, and needless to say our house has been a bit stressed out over it. He only has a few more days and then he is off for the summer, and becomes an official sophomore!

I have a JustRite card to share with you.  It uses two of the new sets, Heart Scroll Background stamp and Botanical Medallions and Banners.   For the background, I heat embossed it using Versamark and white embossing powder.  I brayered it with two shades of purple and wiped off the excess with a tissue.  I distressed the edges a bit with brown ink.  I added this beautiful rhinestone trim from Sharon's Stamp Simply store. I took a bit of vellum and created a ruffle to tuck under the trim. 

The flowers were also stamped in Versamark and embossed in white.  I pulled out my very dusty Twinkling H2O's and decided to play around a bit with them.  The sparkly leaves were done with the left over vellum and green H2O's.  I hand cut them and added them behind the popped up flower.  The sentiment is also from the Botanical Medallions set.  It was stamped in avocado on a little tag I had in my stash.  I attached it behind my popped up flower.  

Summer is right around the corner.....just two more weeks of school!  I am looking forward to those more relaxed days with no homework, no finals, no clocks to punch! I am blessed to work in a job that allows me the summers off!

Have a wonderful day!
