My final Swap items!!!

We had to do a 9 x 9 layout. I left it blank for everyone to add their own title. I think I will put BLOOM on the top and then add "where you are planted" below. I used Simple Stitches c1234 with hollyhock ink, stamped the cottage floral flower and cut it out. I stamped on our Just blooms flowers with the small flower stamp in autumn terracotta. I used our clear buttons for the flower center with a piece of patterned paper behind it, which I attatched with liquid glass. I used vanilla cream waxy flax for the button holes, and the new ric rac and of course boom di ada paper pack.
This is the 3 x 3 card. I random stamped some paper and used half the large stamped flower to off set the circle.

Supplies: (All CTMH) Friendship Word Puzzle D1258, Cottage Floral B1306, boom di ada PP
Ink: hollyhock, autumn terracotta

2 more boom di ada cards

This card was inspired by Marjorie a fellow CTMH consultant.

This was inspired by Vicki and the card she sent me which is posted below. Love the half circle cut and folded back. I used my CTMH stamps and boom di ada paper!

More Boom di ada


Sorry I haven't posted, I've been busy catching up with homeschool, appointments and bible study. I finally created the second out of 4 cards for my team swap. What do ya think?

Papers: boom di ada
Stamps: blooming flourishes
accessories: rub n write pen, prisma glitter, white paint, new designer ric rac

If you haven't heard of the rub n write pen, it's a must have. You can write, detail or draw images with this fine tip glue pen and then rub the glitter right over it. Just give the glue a few seconds to dry until just tacky, then rub away!
Here is a piece of random stamped paper that I created with the new Cottage Floral Stamp set.

Stay tuned for the next 2 cards and 9x9 layout!

Here's one of my favs so far in the new catalog. You can order starting May 1 from the new catty. This is a card I'll be submitting for my team swap. I have to make 4 different cards and a 9x9 layout using the new products from the new catty. Here's my first card.

Supplies

colors
: hollyhock, barn red, olive, autumn terracotta, buttercup, colonial white
paper: NEW boom di ada paper pack, olive, buttercup, barn red,Hollyhock, colonial white CS
accessories: New designer ric rac, white daisy just blooms paper flowers, liquid glass, prisma glitter, scallop scissors, coluzzle circles
Stamps: NEW Cottage floral, angel whispers

I embossed the olive green with my stylus and paper trimmer

The flower centers are tiny circles cut out with a hole punch from the patterned paper, covered with liquid glass and prisma glitter

On the buttercup circle I curved my stamps on the block to make it border the circle, gotta love the benefits of clear acrylic stamps!!!
