Trying new things..

Trying new things is good.  Stepping out of your comfort

zone and using something new can be both fun and

challenging at the same time.  It makes me think

outside of the box and maybe try new products in a 

new and different way... So the rest of this year

I am going to try lots of new things and hopefully

i will have lots of fun ideas and new ways to do them

to share with all of you stopping by.... 

 Today I am sharing a card I did with a new stamp

I got from the Stamp Simply Ribbon online store from

Just Rite Stamps. I always do these cute little characters

on my cards so I thought I would step out and give

 these gorgeous victorian looking stamps a go...  

So here is my card..

To start I used papers from MME and their Howdy Doody

6x6 paper pad that I just got.  For the sentiment I used

a Vintage oval labels stamp CL 02100

along with my Spellbinders Labels 13 S4-248 #6.

 I stamped it with embossing ink

and then used seafoam white powder so that it would

match with the papers. (Note to self next time: use 

a dust buddy to wipe off the card before so that the

powder doesn't stick everywhere I don't want it to)

Thankfully the bits weren't too much and the

intricate gorgeous design of the stamp stands out

so beautifully and really makes the card.  

To create the bottom edges on my card 

I used my Spellbinders 

Edgeabilites Classic Triple Scallop E8-003.

  If you haven't gotten any of these edges you are in

 for a real treat because they mix and match so well 

and you can cut an entire edge of a card with them. 

 I love using them and I will have lots of ideas

on these coming up to share..

Thanks so much for stopping by

and hope you have a wonderful day!
