Tying the Knot

This is the first challenge for 2017 for The Rubber Buggy Challenge. Come join the fun and you might be our first winner this year for a $15.00 gift certificate for The Rubber Buggy on-line store.

This is a scrap book page of my son's and daughter-in-law wedding this past month. The gorgeous paper, tabs on the right of the photo and bottom white oval die cut are from the Heartfelt Creations Classic Wedding collection.

You will most likely see ribbons and flowers on all of my projects. I made these flowers from the Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily and Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose die and stamp sets. You can view how I made my cottage roses by click HERE to view a You-Tube video that I created for you.

I love using the NUVO Mousse to color my flowers. This time, I used the NUVO Calypso Coral, Mother-of-Pearl and Peony Pink and sponged the petals of the flowers before assembling each flower.

I typed in "Tying the Knot" using a Word software and Vivalda Italic font. Did you know that most printer inks have ink that embossing powder will stick to it. I printed this sentiment on shimmer card stock and immediately embossed the printer ink with silver embossing powder and heated it with the embossing tool.

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day and hope you are having a good weekend.

I made this Mother's Day card for my daughter with supplies from The Rubber Buggy on-line store.

I love making flowers and used the Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose and Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily dies and stamp sets.

I love how these roses came out and appears to be lacy. This time, I made the Heartfelt Creations Classic Roses using heavier weight vellum paper and stamped with white embossing powder. One petal for the center of the rose was cut out with shimmer white card stock. Therefore, five vellum petals and one petal cut out with shimmer cardstock. I sprayed the vellum flower petals twice lightly with water and using my fingers, scrunched each petal. Let dry for a few minutes and with will be stiff for making the flower.

I love the NUVO Mousse since it give a gorgeous satin shine to my flowers, etc. Using my fingers and sponge, I applied NUVO Mousse - Pink to the back of each petal and lightly on the tip in the center of the rose,

Since the vellum paper didn't take glue well, I used a hot glue gun to make my pink and white roses.

I cut out the Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily with shimmer card stock and it was embossed with Ranger Gold embossing powder and sponged with NUVO Mousse colors of Peony Pink and Aquamarine. The stamen was cut out with silver glitter card stock.

The Heartfelt Creations Fleur Border was cut out with the same shimmer card stock as the card.
