Butterfly Post-it-Notes

Hello friends... This week we are sharing our favorite IBS stamps... IBS has so many great stamp sets that it was a bit difficult to choose just one but I selected the Butterflies stamp set from the latest release. 

 I have made a Post-it-Notes holder using this stamp & the co-ordinating cut file from Butterflies Cut File. The little glittered banner tab on top is cut with  Fancy Labels 3 Die. I have folded it & adhered on both sides of the top fold which keeps the stand from opening up falling...  

I hope you like my project... thanks for visiting today...

You Inspire Me

Hello friends...

Welcome to Heartfelt Creations Wednesday...

Today I have a masculine card for you... 

I struggle a lot with Masculine cards... Its difficult for me to make cards without flowers or ribbons & that too in masculine colors... Whenever I think of masculine cards browns & navy colors automatically come to my mind...

But this time I thought of using a different color combination... so I have used Cracked Pistachio & Black Soot Distress Inks with gold embossing on my card...   & I love how it turned out...

As you can see in the above pic that I couldn't resist adding a little bit of  glitter & sparkle on my card... LOL....

Mix some Ranger Transparent Texture Paste with a little Black Soot Distress Ink & apply it to the stamped panel using Memory Box Diamond Stencil.

Butterflies

Hello friends...

Welcome to some IBS inspiration...

For today's card I have used the gorgeous Butterflies stamp set & Butterflies Cut File.

I cut 3 pieces of watercolor cardstock from Butterflies Cut File with my cameo & stamped the butterflies from Butterflies stamp set. Next I colored them using some distress inks & added black pearls to their bodies.

Then I adhered them to my card base also made with cameo...

Don't you just love the bright & colorful butterflies...  :)
