Divinity Designs LLC - December Birthday Flower of the Month

Hi, everyone!  It's time to share the 12th Birthday Flower of the Month set from Divinity Designs LLC....this past year went fast!  This month's flower is the Narcissus. To find out more about the Birthday Flower of the Month sets, please click HERE.

Instead of making just a card with the December flower, I jumped in with both feet and created a 12x12 scrapbook layout using all twelve flowers!  Each of the flowers and sentiments were stamped on white vellum; the images were colored with markers on the reverse side, then attached to white cardstock using adhesive sheets, then cut out with the coordinating dies.  The header was created using Slimline Rectangles and Slimline Pierced Rectangles; each piece was "resized" in order to fit the letters perfectly.  The letters were cut with the Alphabet Caps Dies.  All of the pieces were popped up with Foam Mounting Tape.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pink Sky Plains

Hi, everyone!  This week's Color Challenge over at Splitcoast is to use Powder Pink, Moody Mauve, and Night of Navy.  I had a stack of various silhouette images which were already stamped with Stazon Jet Black, so all I had to do was blend the background with the three colors.  The image is from 'Howdy' and the sentiment is from 'Happy Trails', both from Divinity Designs LLC. Three pink milk dots were added for a simple embellishment.  This card with go into my birthday card stash.

Divinity Designs LLC Birthday Flower of the Month - September

Hi, everyone! It's time to reveal September's Birthday Flower of the Month....the Aster!  If you haven't already subscribed, check out how to get yours....HERE!  I love that you can find Asters in just about any color; one of my samples shows the traditional lavender tones, but I went a bit wild on the 2nd! :)

For my first sample, the Aster was stamped onto white vellum; the back side was colored with markers. An adhesive sheet was added to the vellum before cutting with the coordinating die. I love this technique since it creates a glow-y effect, especially the white sections.  Here are the other items used for this card: Peaceful Petals Paper Pad, Foam Mounting Tape, Adhesive Sheets, and the following dies: Double Stitched Rectangles, Rectangles, Matting Rectangle, A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer.  The satin bow was tied with a Bow Easy and lavender glitter gems were added for the finishing touch. 

My second sample was created around the designer paper.....I looked through my paper collection until I found a pattern which "spoke" to me, from the Beauty in Bloom Paper Pad! The asters were stamped with Stazon Jet Black onto white cardstock, the centers were colored with a marker then sealed with a clear glaze pen. The flowers were colored with markers and blending brushes. The vase was created by cutting the designer paper with one of the dies from the Shining Light Lantern Die Set.  Here are the other items used for this card: Foam Mounting Tape, Blending Brushes, Mini Slimline Card Base, Mini Slimline Scalloped Rectangles, Mini Slimline Thin Pierced Frame.
