See the cute umbrella in the corner that is using the Umbrella logo set and the Umbrella die. Love the little extras for adding embellishments to your cards!!
...and here is the inside of the card for you too....I used a sentiment from the new So Wordy Set, which I really like - always good to have great sentiments for your cards!!

For the Copic coloring ladies, the Copics that I used were:
Skin - E000,00,01,11
Hair - W1,3,5,7  - had fun doing her hair :)

All That Scraps Preview Day Three

Today is the final day of showing you the fantastic products that are coming out tonight!! So be ready to see the fun preivews today and then ready to shop tonight at the All That Scraps Online store :) For the final preview for April we are showcasing the "All About Mom" sentiment set. When I saw this set and knew I had this paper from Pink Paislee's "London Market" line, I knew what I wanted to do and that was come up with a very pretty soft card for my mom. I was happy with the result that I got with the help of the Curly Q border and the  Butterfly Border from ATS (cut apart for beatutiful butterflies). I also used the Leafy Flourish from My Favorite Things and some very pretty Prima flowers... this is what I came up with.
and a closer look at the details....

...and here is the inside..

This sentiment set is awesome and I was able to use four of the stamps from this set on this card - and it stamps so clearly!! On the inside I also used another My Favorite Things die, Vintage Flourish  (Christine carries this one in the online store).  I hope you like it too and I would love to hear your comments.
Happy shopping tomorrow at the ATS online store!!!   But first stop by the All That Scraps blog and see the beauties from the other DT ladies ....enjoy.

I am showing you "Umbrella Lucy" and for fun sentiments I have used the new 'Umbrella Logos set" which has umbrella stamps that fit just right in the "Umbrella' die and for extra fun embellishing my card I have used  the new Curly Q border".
I sure love having the "circle" die for all the great circle shaped senitments!! I paper pieced her umbrella and
hat - such a fun thing to do!! I have put in a close up so that I hope you can see the puddle she is standing in has some shine for 'wet' look by using Glossy Accents.

All That Scraps - New Wings Stamp Set and Wings Die

Today we get to show you what you can do with the new Wings Stamp set when you combine it with the new Wings die ...so be sure you stop at the blog and see what the fine ladies on the Design Team have to show you at All That Scraps!!!  I decided to use these "pretties" to make a couple of tags for gifts and I had fun playing with other inks today.

Here is the first one:
For this tag I just stamped the butterflies with Aged Mahoganny Distress ink and then embossed right away with clear embossing powder and cut them with the die. I used the fun little butterfly trail squiggle to add some fun to the tag front. The sentiment is from the Be Happy set at All That Scraps - such a great set!! The papers I used were older ones from Basic Grey :)

And here is the second tag:

For this tag the paper is new from Bo Bunny called Country Garden collection. This time for the butterflies I stamped with versamark ink and then embossed with white embossing powder, next I colored them in with distress stains and I used  victorian velvet and scattered straw, sprayed with Perfect pearl mist, "pearl" and cut using the wings die. I used the Spring logo set and also the Be Happy Sentiment set again. I colored the ribbon on the tag with distress stain and the one at top with distress ink and water. So fun to play with these inks today!!

Remember to stop by the ATS blog and see all the fantastic eye candy the team has for you .....now I am off to get ready to go see my grandsons tomorrow in Saskatoon... hoping the weather is good so we can get there easily!!!!!!!!!!!!!
