Fun at Group meeting


This past week the group I belong to... Whipperstampers, in Hendersonville, NC
had a great meeting... we were very casual this night... and very relaxed meeting.. it was great..
Anyway... I asked some of the gals to bring ideas that they could share with the rest of us... and Sharon Capp-Hill brought this GREAT idea... and I wanted to share it with y'all....
She took a background stamp and with Platinum Brillance, stamped on glossy paper...
ALLOWING IT TO DRY OVERNIGHT... it gives a slight raised effect.. very pretty too.
I have taken a picture so that you can see the background stamping... which is in the Label 10 area of this card... The stamp she used is a Stampin Up stamp... 'FROM YEARS AGO" says Sharon...
We then took a solid stamp and with markers colored it and then huffed on it... and stamped...
which gives you this effect... it is lovely...
I promised Sharon that I would share the card I made... so here it is..


I used a Cuttlebug folder called Scroll work... and used glossy paper also... then with a silver marker, marked all the lines... but missed at times.. but generally covered all the lines... then punched a frame and mounted all with pop dots...
Yes I buy a lot of them... and I don't own a pop dot company either... LOL..
I added some Krinkle metallic paper on the ends.. and mounted it all onto the 5x7 card base..
I also used a scrap of the paper that Sharon make and made the other butterfly... One problem... I didn't have the same colored markers... as I borrowed Renee's markers... thanks Renee...
Anyway.. I added a few gem stones on the top and bottom and the card was finished...
Hope you like what I did with this Sharon... I love the technique... and hope others will try it...
Just say thanks to Sharon for this one..
It is really a lovely technique...
Thanks again...
And thank you for stopping by for a visit... come back again soon..
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
