Happy Birthday Card by Adriana Bolzon


Hello there everyone :) is it my turn again today 
Today, I have a Happy Birthday Card to share with you all
and the Dream Boat stamping set from the 3-in-1 sets
Butterfly Notes C0723400
 
 
 
Firstly I stamped the butterfly image with the music notes and words 
from the 3-in-1 set around the top of my cardstock.



I embossed 2 sheets of cardstock with the
All Occasions embossing folder - JAZMYNE C0723293
  and cut out all the leaves, gently inking all the raised
areas of the embossed leaves with brown and green inks.
I then arranged them to create a cluster of
leaves and flowers.

 
Thanks for looking!

Celebrate Card Set by Jo Piccirilli

Good morning all!

It's my turn again on the blog today.   

I love the elegant look of a simple white embossed card combined with one other colour.  They are so quick to pull together and they look really stylish though simple.

Today I have two cards to share with you.  I used white and purple as my colour combo. 


I cut a piece of white cardstock 8.5cm x 12.5cm.  I then just ran the bottom half through my cuttlebug using the Tied Together embossing folder (an old folder but a good one!)


Mat this piece onto some purple card and then adhere it to your card front.  I have then cut a piece of purple cardstock and stuck it across the centre of the card.

Die cut from a piece of white cardstock a doily using the  Ivy Doily Set from the Fantasia Collection .

The sentiment is one from the new 3 in 1 Dreamboat collections - Ornate Frame.


I have then stamped some butterflies from the 3 in one Dreamboat Collection.  Seriously - these 3 in one are FANTASTIC!  You can use everything in the collection or just use some like I have on this card.  I have then cut out my butterfly and curled the wings.  I then added a blossom and some silver gemstones to finish my card.

Here is my second card


Another simple yet elegant card.

For this card I have used one of our new Christmas embossing folders Wild Holly from Wrapped in Joy Collection  Just another reason I love Couture Creations -  it doesn't matter what you use it just all seems to go!  Love that I can use this folder for everything including Christmas.

Instead of embossing the whole piece of white cardstock, I have embossed just the top and bottom, leaving a blank strip to stamp my butterflies.


Once you have embossed the bottom, turn your paper and embossed the top. 


I now have a blank strip for stamping.  I used the butterfly stamps from the 3 in one Dreamboat Collection - Ornate Frame.  I then added some silver gemstones to the middle of my butterflies.

I have stamped my sentiment again from the Ornate Frame 3 in one collection using the Victorian Square Nesting Dies and cutting off the top to make a tab.

Thanks for letting me share again! 
 If you want some more inspiration on the 3 in one Dreamboat Collection that I have been using have a look here and see what some of the other DT gals have been up to.

Until next time

Giraffe Centre Kenya by Lesa Bird

.
Hi all, today I've had a little play with Couture Creations
 from the set l'll be using the stamps and dies.
So let have a look
 
 



 
 
Taking the large stamp from the 3 in 1 Dreamboat Butterfly Notes Collection set, stamp around the edge of your cardstock
 
 
 
Using the Butterfly dies cut out 3 butterfly bodies, and also 3 of the wings, and stamp them with the related stamp, add a little Couture Creations Foam Tape to the back of the wings, place on top of butterfly,  Gemstones add that touch of bling
 
 
 

 
 
grab some pattern paper, cut 7 of the flower die, stamp layer 4 off centre, and 3 over the centre, and attach then all together with a brad, spritz with water and scrunch each layer to the centre, then gently reopen, add a little spray adhesive and dust with glitter. (see pictures below)






 
On a piece of cardstock cut to the size you require, take the flower stamp, amd randemly stamp on cardstock, ink the edges, destress them using Couture CReations scissors


 
 
A couple of close ups of the flower, and layered Butterfly




 
 
Arange all pieces to your page, add a little glitter, and Couture Creations gemstones to the background stamping, and your done, hope you like this project, but most of all have fun with this great 3 in 1 set from Couture Creations
