{ June Studio AE Blog Hop from Technique Tuesday }

Welcome to our June 2014 Blog Hop. Today we are featuring projects made with Pure Magic - Studio AE - June 2014. This stamp set is currently in stock. It will only be available for a limited time (usually about a month) so get them while you can!

Here is my layout.

I received lots of new products from Emma’s Paperie that I couldn’t wait to use. I started with a watercolor page where I scribbled Gelatos and added water. I die cut several labels using Label die. I ended up using only two. One at the top and one at the bottom. I mixed in some Elle’s Studio labels and stamped sentiments from the new Pure Magic stamp set. I added some brand new items from exclusive Elle’s Studio June kit that will be released in a few hours. The colors matched my layout perfectly and I couldn’t resist. Come back at 10 am for a new blog post with all the new items.

{ Impression Obsession DT challenge – Masculine }

Hi and welcome to our  Impression Obsession challenge – Masculine!

Our challenge starts today, June 5, and continues to the following Wednesday evening, June 11, at 10 PM.

Create a new project using  Impression Obsession stamps and post it on Impression Obsession Blog, between June 5 - 11. A winner will be chosen randomly to win a $25 gift certificate to the Impression Obsession store.

Here is my card.

Happy birthday by Daniela Dobson

I love how this turned out. I used several different stamp sets for the stamped rows (see the links below).
For this card I started at the bottom. After each stamped row I added Zips™ between the stamping. Zips are clear adhesive lines. They are ultra thin and about 1/8″ wide.  These thin lines of glue are perfect for paper strips, ribbon, paper borders and other long embellishments, or in this case Flower Soft. Cut the Zips to the desired length. Apply to cardstock and peal top layer.  Use your finger to press Flower Soft into the adhesive.
I layered Elle’s Studio tags, a die cut star and added a flair from {A Flair For Buttons} to the center.

Happy birthday close by Daniela Dobson

That is all from me. Make sure you check out what the rest of our DT created.

I hope you play along.

Alex has four more days of school left. I can’t believe that Kindergarten is over and he will be in 1st grade. The school year just flew by! This is photo of him from Friday morning. He is wearing his Falcon of Character shirt, an award he won at school.

{ June Sketch For You To Try }

Hi and welcome to our June sketch challenge.

Here is my card.

For this card I used three different stamp sets. The stripes are from So Stripey stamp set. I stamped one diagonal strip and cut it out. I added a Silhouette Cameo cut under it. I used tiny hearts from Go Together and stamped them in green. The tag is colored with yellow Gelato and I tucked it under the flower and stamped “best wishes” from Paper Crane stamp set.
