Edwin and Butterfly Dreams…

May 16, 2011August 6, 2013 Pam Sparks37 Comments

Good morning! Edwin has something “just for YOU”!

Here’s some more pictures of my card…

Some crazy coloring on this one… his shirt started out with YG11, added teeny bits of YG 13 & 17 but it was a little bright so I colored over with W00 then went back in with some of the greens again, then some YG0000… and so it goes! Do you want to know about the jeans then? lol More crazy! lol Started by coloring all with BG0000, then did tip to tip with BG13 & then BG18 but you have to swipe on scrap paper before you color it on the image. eek! it’s fun! crazy coloring is why I haven’t made any videos! lol Well the real reason is because I don’t have a video camera or maybe I would have been persuaded by now!

Couldn’t decide between these last two so bear with me, I’m posting both! I LOVE these new Doohickey’s Butterfly Dreams dies! I used all of the new ones except one! lol Links below for everything.

I used my new stopper idea again too! This time I used oval punches…three of them… the back one goes the opposite direction and is scored in half and the bottom half is taped under the brown base. I just love this stopper stuff! lol oh and can you see that cool arrow brad? so happy I bought those! I usually resist that stuff, but you need extras for boys, so it was a good thing!

I used the sketch from Sweet Stop Sketches Challenge blog but I think the main image is supposed to be a sentiment, so not sure if I can link up yet or not! Probably not… but I love Korin’s sketches so I used it anyway cuz I needed a jump start yesterday! : )) ETA – Korin says, “yes, link up!” Linking to the new Craft Us Crazy challenge blog… use something NEW.

Here’s the stamps and stuff I used on this Easel card…

Magnolia Butterfly Dreams Doohickey’s Dies!!!

May 15, 2011October 8, 2012 Pam Sparks21 Comments

NOW for the pictures of the new dies from the Butterfly Dreams Doohickey’s Die collection! I resized the photos so that they are the actual size they cut IRL.

Here’s theGrass Lace die, the tree and the bud from the Magnolia Tree die set. It’s hard to see in the photo but the tree trunk has embossed lines it it like wood grain…cool!

The Magnolia Tree die set has several pieces… the flower below is made from the three leaf die that is in the packaged Magnolia Tree die set. I cut three pink pieces and one green piece and layered them up…they already have a hole in them for the brad! Super easy and so cool… love the lines that cut in the petal and you could shade easy with any of the coloring mediums. I left it plain, so you could see what it’s like right out of the die.

Here’s the Heart Swirl die. So dainty and cuts perfectly! The two teeny butterlies are from the packaged Magnolia Tree die set… they are so cute! Gonna be so much fun to use!

Look at this awesome Dream tag! it’s a set of two separate dies… so if you wanted you could even use the tags separately. LOVE it! The Swirly Butterfly die…oh wow! It’s two pieces and cuts perfectly!!! gorgeous! LOVE it!

And this adorable Scallop Tag die! I love it!

Thanks for stopping by!

It’s a Butterfly Dreams post!

Some super sweet stamps from Magnolia on my stair step card today! The latest collection, Butterfly Dreams…they just keep getting cuter! I also used a few Magnolia Doohickey’s dies… I’ll link to them all in the photos below.

I made this a back panel stair step. I didn’t take time to search to see if anyone has already done this. I didn’t like it as tall either so I did some changing. The pattern paper is from the Webster’s Pages 6×6 pad called Spring Market/Yacht Club. Some really neat designs in the collection… link below.

Linking up to the Just Magnolia Challenge for this week, they’re celebrating birthdays! It’s HERE! Linking to the Wee Memories Challenge post, HERE, the challenge is “All Things Adorable”… well, that’d be Tilda and Edwin! : )

Here’s a side view to see the stair step…
