Technique Card: Plastic Wrap Stamping Background with Dragonfly Dreams

Hello!

I have created my first card using the Plastic Wrap Stamping Background technique!  
Woo Hoo!  
So Messy!  So fun!  




We made this card at one of my recent card classes and I wish I had taken a picture of each card.  They were all unique and I would have loved to attempt to recreate them!  That probably would've been impossible but it would have been fun to try!

Card: Moroccan Love

Hello!
Today I have a pair of cards I created for a recent card class.  I usually like to offer options for greetings for the cards we make in class.  

That's one thing I love about the Sunshine Sayings stamp set!  

With all of the options for greetings, there is something in it for every occasion!  I have been using the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits a lot lately as well.  I wanted this bundle the minute I saw it in the catalog.
This bundle makes it so quick and easy to send your love and so much more!

Card: Sending Sunshine

Hello!

When I was creating this card (shared with you the other day), I was inspired to create today's card.  I must've been thinking "Spring" because I was on a roll creating cards with the Brights!  



I don't usually reach for the Brights... I'm typically more of a Regals/Neutrals girl!  But, I'm so ready for Spring so why not bring it out in my crafting!

I did use some really old ribbon on my card.  I've had this 1/4" grosgrain ribbon for ages... I collected the whole line of them, then they were retired.  I hoarded it and refused to use it.  But I'm running out of room in my craft room so I need to start using and stop hoarding!  You could easily substitute another ribbon here, perhaps the white grosgrain from the Sending Love Ribbon Combo Pack or the 5/8" Organza!  How about the Whisper White Mini Pompom Trim!  That would be fun!

I hope I've brought some sunshine into your day!  To create my card yourself, I have links to purchase the products I used below.  Don't forget, you will earn exclusive Sale-a-bration products, FREE, when your order reaches $50 or more!  All of the details can be found Here.

Card: Swirly Wishes Of Love

Hello!

I know this card screams "Valentine", and that Valentine's Day has come and gone, but, it could also make a great Anniversary card or, change up the colors to create a Wedding card!


I actually made this based on a card by Connie Stewart.  I just changed it up a bit.  Put my own "Mary spin" to it :)  And, it contains no stamping!  Zip, Zero, Nada!

Card: Bee a Wonderful Friend

Hello!

We created this card at my recent card class.  I love it!  It's so bright and sunny!

Dragonfly Dreams is such an amazing stamp set! Combined with it's coordinating Dies, it's a Mary's Must Have!   
  
Funny, I started out case'ing a card off Pinterest but, when I tried to put my own "spin" on it, it became a completely different card all-together!  
It just took a while to come together :)

I stamped a bee on my stitched square and then I stamped another bee on a scrap piece and fussy cut it out.  I glued the second bee (body only) on top of the first one, leaving the wings to "flutter".  I colored the stripes on the bee with my Daffodil Delight marker and added some Soft Sky marker to the wings.  I covered the bee's body with my Fine Tip Glue and added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the wings (adhered with my liquid glue).  I just love how my little bee came out :)  

I admit I used a retired embossing folder for my "hive".  I didn't own the new Hexagons Dynamic T.I.E.Folder at the time so please forgive me ;)  I also used some retired ribbon.  I had a lot of it on hand so  that was what I chose.  I think using Linen Thread would be a nice alternative.  It would tone down the card a bit, make it less bulky, and less "feminine".

Card: Bold Pop of Paradise

Hello,
Today I have a very dramatic card to share with you.  This card was created with the Pop of Paradise stamp set.

I fussy cut the flamingo and popped him up on Dimensionals. 

I made this card quite a while ago.  I think the DSP is now retired but you could easily substitute a pattern from the the Pop of Pink Specialty DSP!
