At first I am sharing my three favorite cards I've made with the awesome products from STAMPlorations.

Favorite #1

I love this bold and fresh watercoloring with some stamping texture on my background.

The supplies are:  Charming Word Die, Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies and In Bloom: Heartfelt Hibiscus.

Please check here for more details.

Favorite #2

As you know, floral is my favorite theme on my projects. I tried to use other themes with mixed media on this card and loved how it turned out.

The supplies are: Trendy Birds 2 and Zen Hearts - ARTplorations Stencil.

Please check here for more details.

Favorite #3 

Love the fractured glass effects on my background! The basic black and white is a great setting for the colors of the central butterfly.

The supplies are: Trendy Butterflies 2 and Broken Glass - ARTplorations Stencil.

Please check here for more details.

I also have a new card for you!

For this card, I'm featuring In Bloom: Radiant Roses and Smile.

I started by stamping the roses on the panel in gray ink.

Then, I heat embossed the rose in white and colored with ZIG real brush pens.

After fussy cut, I adhered the rose with foam tape to the stamping panel.

I finish off my card with the "smile" word.

Well that's it from me. 

You can join in the fun by CASEing any of my cards from this post and link up to the birthday celebration linky. There are over $500 worth of prizes to be won. Find all the details on the main blog post here.

Hope you feel inspired to join in with our birthday celebrations, and most importantly, wish Shery and STAMPlorations continues to go from strength to strength! 

Thanks for popping by!

Beautiful living room scrapbooking with Chibitronics LED sticker

Hi friends, Today I have this super fun scrapbook layout made with Chibitronics LED sticker, Felicity Jane kit and Echo Park stickers, as well as Citrus Twist stamps.

I love the loving and cozy vibes living room on my layout!

First, I cut out a sofa and lamp shape with scissors and exacto knife and backed it with some pattern papers from Felicity Jane. Since I want to make the lamp light up, I chose patterned vellum instead of solid paper to layer the lamp.

I cut two holes on the scrapbook background, one is for LED lighting through and the other is for battery. Then, I drew the circuit sketch on another paper. 

Then it’s time to start putting the copper tape and yellow LED sticker down the pencil sketch line.

For the switch, I started off cutting the slit with an exacto knife. The mechanics attached underneath the "switch" is the thing that two squares folded in half, butting up against each other and wrapped with copper tape. That will bridge the gap in the circuit to turn the lights on.

As the photos show above, when the "switch" down, the copper tapes are connected to the battery, and the LED is lighting, and vice versa. 

I also tied two threads to the up and down sides of the "switch". In this way, the function of the threads just like the "switch" of lamp.

To make the thread which is on the up side can be pull easily, I added a curved straw beside the "switch" and make the thread through it.

Next, I adhered the lamp with foam tape to create dimensions. I also scattered embellishments and stickers around my page.

The lamp is turned on while pulling the left thread, and turned off while pulling right thread.

I layered my photo with some embellishments from Felicity Jane and Echo Park.

As a final touch, I stamped some sentiments from Citrus Twist.

I hope you like my new scrapbook layout and it will inspire you to create something pretty with Chibitronics LED sticker.

Thanks for stopping by!

The supplies I used are:

Red, Yellow, Blue MegaPack (30 stickers),

Copper Tape,

Citrus Twist stamps,

Felicity Jane kit,

 Echo Park stickers

Hi everyone, today I have a quick post to share my Mom's photo and wanted to scrapbook it for Pinkfresh Studio's June challenge.

This is my first try to add string art to my layout. I created a dream catcher on the background and added sequins and labels.

I layered my photo with some pattern paper and tissue paper. I also added some embellishments from Pinkfresh studio and felicity Jane.

For my title, I added leather alpha stickers from Pinkfresh studio beside the dream catcher.

Iris

It's Sunday and time for my craft time.

Here's my card. I used the sketch over at CAS(E) This Sketch #275 and the color palette at ALTENW June 2018 Inspiration Challenge as the basis for my card too:

I chose Iris as my theme since when I see the color palette at Altenew at the first time, Iris comes to my mind. 

I first heat embossed the Iris in white and colored with Zig real brush pens. 

To take on the sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch, I cut a purple panel and die cut a circle.

I adhered the panel with foam tape and arrange Iris on it.

I finish off my card with a "congrats" lable.
