I am very excited to be working with the amazingly talented Gina K. Designs DT this month! I have had a fabulous time creating with the even more fantabulous (yep, made up a new word) March release stamps that I can hardly stand it!
First up is A Beautiful Life by Melanie Muenchinger...
Isn't this just soooo Melanie! I am a huge fan of her floral sets and this is such a great set. I stamped on a new color to the Luxury Cardstock selection: Bubblegum Pink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I didn't want to color in all of the tulips so merely outlined them a bit and LOVED the way they popped! The butterflies were embossed on vellum, cut out and popped up with a small glue dot. This was the first card I made and truly...I squealed with delight when it came together just the way I envisioned it :o)
Next Sending Sunshine from Theresa Momber...
...and more embossing! This time on Glossy cardstock and brayered with a spectrum pad. Love the tire swing in this set...so cool! I have many fond memories of swinging on one as a child.
And lastly for this evening... Fairy Tales by Tami Mayberry.
Oh, I just adore the images in this set and can see so many cards and scrapbook pages made with this stamp set! For this card I used Passionate Pink and Black Oynx and made a princess card.
Are you ready for even more inspiration?

It is time for another fabulous Limelight Papercrafts Sketch!!!! I am tagging along again this month as Guest Designer and have to say.... don't you love these sketches :o) Mandy has so many wonderful goodies in her store, is just so sweet to deal with...AND rumor has it some BIG sales are coming :o) Got to LOVE THAT!!! The product focus for the sketch is on butterflies and I immediately thought of Webster's Pages Seaside Retreat, Garden Gala and Nature's Storybook (which has some beautiful butterflies on quite a few sheets). Two of the butterflies on this card are printed on the paper. I stamped a third butterfly from A Beautiful Life, colored it with Copics and popped it up on a glue dot. The sentiment is from Hope is Faith. I also used some Crochet Lace and Kaisercraft Pearls on the scalloped edge.
