Decorative Brads

Have you created with these fun decorative brads by Stampin' Up!? I chose chocolate chip and very vanilla for my base and then mixed it with baja breeze and kiwi kiss to coordinate with the brads.



I used a stamp for the stamping element on very vanilla; but a stamping wheel would work great to.





Confused about using your crop-a-dial with this project? No worries, Stampin' Up! packaging for these brads has the settings listed that you need for success.

Happy Stamping - April

May Flowers

May showers bring May Flowers....Where did may go? I realize that May came and went without a post and no, we didn't have much for showers.

In May I got together with one of my "T's" - and stamped! I wanted to show Tonya a new technique that I saw on a blog listed below under my list of inspirations; Patty's Stamping Spot.


These floral beauties were created using the Manhattan flower impression die, glossy paper, a brayer and some ink. Patty has a technique video that is easy to follow; the key is to run your glossy paper through upside down so that the glossy side has the impression down, not raised.

Create some floral beauties today!
