Hello friends ~ I'm so happy to be guest designing for Crop Stop Blog today.  Thanks so much Esther, for this fun opportunity! I chose to do a little collage style card using lots of wonderful products found in the Crop Stop store. I started by doing some ink blending for the background using Distress Oxide Inks in Fossilized Amber, Broken China and Wilted Violet, spritzing it with water mixed with a tsp. of bleach, as I continued to add color.  I just love the mottled look it creates. I stamped this wonderful Heidi Swapp background stamp using Frayed Burlap Distress Ink. I cut the panel using an Elizabeth Craft Design Stitched Rectangle and then sponged more Frayed Burlap around the outside edges. I used Poppystamps Delicate Dogwood to cut one out of a scrap of background paper I had created previously that was left sitting on my table and one out of black cardstock.  I also cut the Elizabeth Craft Designs Small Butterfly out of the same. I adhered the flowers on to the front of the card using Glossy Accents, shadowing the flower with the black die cut.  I layered the butterfly and added Black Diamond Stickles to the body. The sentiment from Altenew's Fresh Freesia was stamped with Versamark and heat embossed using white embossing powder onto a scrap of black cardstock.  I raised it up just a tad by running a piece of chipboard that was cut slightly smaller than the sentiment strip and running it through my Xyron sticker maker. I hope you'll take a jaunt over to the Crop Stop blog and say hello to Esther.  While you're there be sure to visit the Crop Stop Shop to see what's new! Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings~ Birgit

Hello friends!! It's Wednesday again and time for the Digital Wednesday inspirations over at Stamplorations blog. Here are my projects using various digital images from the store.  My first card features Cupful of blooms digital bundle.  I coloured the image using Zig markers. On a card base, I created the background using distress inks and Artplorations - Shower of flutters stencil. Foam mounted the digital image. Adhered a sentiment to it.  My second project is a set of cup-shaped cards which can even be used as openable tags.  I am showcasing Spring blooms and mugs digital bundle. I watercoloured the images using Zig markers. Fussy cut the image. Using a craft knife, I cut through the handle of the mug. I adhered the image on a folded card base. Cut the base in the cup shape and through the handle of the cup. Tied ribbons through it. For the Orange flower, I cut the flower apart from the cup and popped it up on foam tape to give an additional dimension to the card. (See the pop in the close-up) Added sentiment stickers. Individual images  Hop along and comment on all the Designer's blogs to stand a chance of winning $15 to the Stamplorations store. Thank you for stopping by!

Hello friends! Digital Wednesday is back again at Stamplorations.  I have two projects to share today. My first project is a Card and a tag set using the Bloomdala coffee cup set of 6 The images are colored using Zig markers.  For the card, I blended some Squeezed Lemonade Distress oxide on one side of a card panel. I added a darker color through the Mini leaf stencil over this part.  Assembled the card together. For the tag, I fussy cut the coffee mug and one more card with it in the cup shape. Punched a small hole to both the pieces and added a brad to make a small openable tag. The second project is a mini 4"x4" card using Cupcake Blooms and Coffee digital stamp Image is colored using Zig markers.  I have added a matt of the dry embossed panel under the image.
