47 Has Never Looked So Good

Good morning!  Amber from Best Stamped Intentions with you here today. :)

 

On Tuesday, we celebrated my handsome husband's birthday early since he has to work on his actual birthday.  47 has seriously never looked so good. :)

 

The Timeless Twine by Bella Creationz theme this month is "Birthday" so what a perfect opportunity to use their awesome products to make a fun pocket layout.

 

 

 

I used Aqua Blue and Raspberry Pink (which all rolls are on sale for $8!!!!) for the swirls on the title card.  The cute little silver stars sequins are coming soon, but there's many other styles available in their shop! And, my go-to journaling card, Days of the Week.

Happy Birthday Box of Letters

Hi there, Maria here from Maria Lina's Creative Designs. For my next challenge, I was to create a project using the colors of the inspiration photo posted below....blue, orange, red and yellow. July is a very busy month around here for birthdays, one of them being my husbands. So I came up with the idea of making this box for heartfelt letters from myself and the kids, the notes are light enough that I made a twine handle to hold the box. 

 

I bought the svg file from svgcuts.com "Country Market", in the video Mary gives the option to add lights to the arrow, in this case I did not. The twine that was used is the Cherry Red, Pumpkin Orange, Lemonade Yellow and Aqua Blue. The papers used are from K&Company and the brads and eyelets are from Recollections.

 

Enjoy...

Photo Love Shaker

It's Julie today, from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers, with a bit of 'Move it Monday' for you. I have a card with a couple different types of movement on it.  This month, we're also featuring the "Oh Snap" stamp set by Bella Creationz.

Here's one view of my creation:

I found this camera shaker card file in the Silhouette Design Store.  I filled the shaker with Bella Creationz sequins to create movement.  I used the 'Oh Snap' same set to add the Photo Love sentiment to the front of the camera, then wrapped some Aqua Blue Timeless Twine around the camera lens and tied a bow.

Next, I made a pocket with my Silhouette, using this file.  I sized it to fit a Bella Creationz tag.  This tag will pull out of the pocket, creating more movement.

Here's a view of the tag, removed from the pocket.

I used more stamps from the 'Oh Snap' stamp set on the tag.  I also used more Timeless Twine on the ribbon.

You can find the tag, stamp set, sequins, and beautiful Aqua Blue twine in the Bella Creationz store.  It is temporarily closed, but will be opening again very shortly.

Technique Tuesday - Creating Your Own Cards w/Texture

Hi friends, happy Tuesday!!

Amber with Best Stamped Intentions with a fun little tutorial that I came up with for our "Technique Tuesday" and creating your own pocket scrapbooking cards with some fun texture. :)

1.  Take some cards (color and size of your choice!)

2. and spray with any kind of color spray.  I used Heidi Swapp's Color Shine.

(I misted in the kitchen...shhhh, don't tell my husband!!)

3.  Put into embossing folder and run through whatever embossing machine you've got.

4 and 5 are the completed embossed cards.

6 was actually a happy mistake that I didn't know I was making.  One of the cards was placed differently than the other creating a de-bossed look.  Kind of fun!

After your cards are dry (I left mine out overnight!), then comes the fun part of decorating them.

I used Timeless Twine in Lemonade Yellow, Aqua Blue, Purple Passion, and Bubblegum Pink to add even more dimension than the embossing made.  I also added a few sequins in (Raspberry Pink) for some added sass. :)

xoxo, Amber

Easter Taggin'

It's "Tag It Tuesday", and this is Julie from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers sharing today. I decided to get a jump start on my Easter cards.  I always make and give away a few for the holiday, so I might as well get started!

 

Bella Creationz/Timeless Twine products used:

The image, by Gerda Steiner, was colored with Copic markers.  I had the chipboard glasses from a Simon Says Stamp card kit.  I thought they added the perfect "nerdy" look to the rabbit.
