It’s Your Time to Shine

It’s Your Time to Shine     

I was doing some homework and found some interesting information about the Daisy. I had no idea.

Daisies symbolize innocence and purity. ... In Norse mythology, the daisy is Freya's sacred flower. Freya is thegoddess of love, beauty, and fertility, and as such the daisy came by symbolize childbirth, motherhood, and new beginnings. Daisies are sometimes given to congratulate new mothers.

Sentiment

Little Ladybug

Little Ladybug.

I’m loving this bundle. The stamp set is a FREE hostess set with a qualifying workshop. 

And with your hostess reward you can receive the Ladybug dies. Win win for you as a hostess. 

Why not host your own workshop. I will definitely help you get started.

 The how to’s....

Card base is 8 1/2”x 5 1/2”. You’re going to score on the 8 1/2” side at 4 1/4”

The mat is 5 1/4”x 4 “ and I embossed with the Layered Leaves embossing folder.

The Designers Series Paper is 4 1/2”x 3 1/4” be sure to cut it the right way!

I have a piece of Real Red that’s 1”x 2 3/4”.

You’re going to need some Whisper White for stamping the ladybug and flowers. You may want to use a piece of card stock that’s 4 1/4” x 5 1/2”

After you embossed the leaves glue it to the card base. Then add the Designer Series Paper.,

Now for the fun part!

Stamp the images using Memento. I like to cut out the images before I start colouring. 

With your Old Olive blends colour the leaves of the flowers. 

And the Daffodil Delight for the centre. 

The wings of the Ladybug is done in Real Red blends. And it’s belly is Smokey Slate. Add dimensionals onto the flowers and adhere to the Designer Series Paper. Adhere the Ladybug to a Wobbles and then onto the card. Don’t have a wobbles no worries use your dimensionals. 

Now with the embossing buddy rub it over the Real Red card stock. Then stamp up your sentiment with Versamark and stamp onto the card stock. Spoon the White embossing powder over the sentiment. Warm up you Heating Tool and heat set your sentiment. Flag out the end of the sentiment and adhere with dimensionals to the card.

Add the linen bow and you’re done.

CASE-ing Tuesday #146 Birthday Blooms

 What a coincidence!  This weeks CASE-ing card and technique we’re using for club uses the same stamp!  Sad part about this is the stamp is retiring.

At club I like to teach the girls different techniques. So this month it’s all about the vellum. The girls are going to learn how to heat emboss onto vellum, which I’ve done here. Along with embossing with a embossing folder and big shot. And using vellum as an accent.  Here’s hoping they enjoy the techniques. 

Wanting to see how I did this Technique. I’ll be doing a Facebook live on Wednesday May 9 at 3 pm central time on my Facebook page. Facebook.com./creatinwithsharon Hoping to see ya then.  Here’s the products I used.

Napkin Cards

$10 Technique Tuesday. In this class we made Four Cards. And let me tell you they're so beautiful. You can't get these at the Dollar Store and thinking they're just as beautiful as Hallmark but way cheaper.

 I taught the napkin technique this week and such an easy class.

Here's what we made
