From Heidi Blankenship's blog, "Embellished Dreams," this beautiful card featuring products from JustRite Papercraft and Spellbinders.

Special Day Wedding Card

"Hello everyone!  I have a card and a quick post to share with you tonight.  

by Heidi Blankenship
This is another one of the wedding cards that I made but this sentiment could also be used for a birthday or anniversary too.  To create the background I used E3D-003 Delightful Daisies M-bossabilities™ folder, Delicata Golden Glitz ink and a brayer.  Using the brayer apply the ink to the folder, put paper inside folder and emboss.  Then I very lightly added some Espresso Truffle ink to the flowers and butterfly.

by Heidi Blankenship

I added metal filigree flowers and a butterfly from ButterBeeScraps to the flower centers and on top of the embossed butterfly.  


Using Simply Smooth Ivory paper I cut/embossed the label shape using S5-025 Labels Seventeen die template.  Then I stamped the sentiment from the CR-04580 Birthday Vintage Lables Four stamp set.  I also added some pearls and Double-faced Satin Ivory Ribbon for embellishments.


I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Hugs & Smiles,"
Heidi

From Memory Box, a continuation of their Christmas blog blitz . . .

Winter wonderland scene....

"Hello everyone,
Welcome as we continue our blog blitz!   I have really been enjoying all of the inspiration on the blog these last several days.  I couldn't wait to see what the other designers did with all of the new product.  It's Mary here today with card I made using the new Bundled Penguin stamp.  How cute is he!   I was really excited to see all of the penguin stamps and dies in this release.  The Frosted Christmas Tree die is another new favorite of mine.  It cuts and embosses beautifully and is just lovely.  I cut one down to get the 2 different sizes.

Here is another shot to show some of the details.  I like to use foam tape to give my cards a lot of dimension.

More 12 Days of Christmas sneak peeks from Graphic 45 . . .












I posted this on my Facebook page but I know some of you don't see it. As a very proud Gammy, I just had to share this sweet photo of Cecilia from yesterday.

The driveway to the house is very long, so we often take
walks . . . she must take her baby stroller that carries
her 'baby' and 'puppy' AND the golden retriever, Gus, must
always accompany her because Gus is her buddy.
In this photo, we are returning to
the house before dinner time.


In 2 hours, we start our drive to Bologna to check into our airport hotel. Our flight home begins at 6:10 a.m., so you may not see a post until Saturday. We've had such a marvelous visit at the lake house. The next time we see Ceclia, it will be in London in late September/early October. Her mommy is awaiting the birth of her new baby sister early next month and then will move to their new home in London to be with her daddy.
