Thank You By Dina Kowal
Dina Kowal shares a beautful Thank You card today!
Dina uses DIE162-Thanks Word
From Dina~
I started with a Fabriano Medioevalis Stationery card and a brushed puddle of water... I brushed in Stream reinker at one end of the wet area, and yellow Impress ink at the other end, and let them bleed together. While the ink was still wet, I dropped in some gold Lumiere Acrylic Paint and then did some scratchy blending with a fork... I have no idea why there is a fork in my can of brushes (?!), but it gave a cool effect.
I sprinkled some gold embossing powder into the puddle, and heated from the back of the panel to dry the paint and set the powder. After everything was set and dry, I added some more yellow ink, and repeated the process. I cut into the panel using the new Thanks Word die from Impression Obsession, replaced the cut with a white piece, then cut the inlaid panel using a Spellbinders die.
Have a great day!

Bohemian Butterfly by Jenny Gropp
We have a fun tutorial to share today from Jenny Gropp!
Jenny used DIE001-Z Circle Shaker Die, DIE059-N Fancy Butterfly, DIE017-V Border Duo 1 Die , and WP382 Summer Clear Set
I cut the circle base from the IO Circle Shaker Die and ran it through a CB Folder to add some embossing. I added the printed chipboard circle and then used the IO Fancy Butterfly Die in the center of it, popping it with Dimensional silicone to keep the wings curved. I cut the solid butterfly out of yellow for the bottom layer. For the fancy butterfly I positioned the die cut evenly over a flower in the printed paper... that way the colors and the design are some what symmetrical.
A border die and left over paper strips accent the inside of the card.
I added the Summer Strip along the bottom to fit with the challenge. There is a great Summer Themed Clear Set that has some great sentiments for fun summery cards or layouts!
Have a great day!

Daffodils by Jenny Gropp
Jenny Gropp shares a beautiful floral card today!
CL330 Get Well Wishes, F8579 Daffodil Trio Border.
I stamped the flowers first - Daffodil Trio Border. The Get Well sentiment came next. Then I glued the yellow paper along the top and bottom. Last I die cut the shape. That way my edges are nice and clean. You can see the Copics I used to color the flowers.
This is 1/16" tape I added along the edge of both yellow top and bottom. Just gives it a really nice finished edge. I wrap the ends around the back of the panel.
This is the inside.... I get a lot of emails about shaped cards and this is how I make them. I cut two black panels using the smallest die in Spellbinder's Grand Labels 23. The back die is scored about a half inch down. I glue the two tops together - putting adhesive above the score line and then lining them up. I like to a use wet glue. The wet glue gives you a little wiggle room to be able to line up everything perfectly.
You can see (sort of) the flowers were stamped a second time and then cut out. I added the second flowers with foam tape for a little dimension. A little bow to finish it off.
Have a great day!
