Love.....Vintage Style...Simply Sunday

Thank you for stopping by for Simply Sunday, if you want to learn more about what Simply Sunday is you can click on the sidebar and see what it is all about. Today I have a very vintage card to share with you, I have been working all day on a special project and the theme is vintage so I thought I would carry it through to Simply Sunday. I used Graphic 45 Le' Romantique Collection of pattern paper, Spellbinders GC-001 Grand Calibur,  S4-314 Lacey Circles, S5-040 Floral Doily Accents, S4-210 Lattice Pendants and S4-138 Petite Ovals Large, Quietfire Designs Rubber Stamps Life Journey Words,

 I have to say this card looks like it really isn't a simple card but when you have the right product it really comes together fast, for instance my Nestabling from Want2Scrap...all attached comes off as one piece so simple...you're going to love it as much as I do.

 What is a good project with out a good adhesive.....my favorite is Beacon Adhesive - Zip Dry. I'm sure you all have noticed how popluar doilies are well for my card today I took Mulberry paper and die cut it with the Spellbinders Lattice Pendants and created my own doily...I am sure we all have a stash of Mulberry paper somewhere...time to get it out and use it...wink wink. I hope you have enjoyed my card today, make sure to pop over to my other two friends blogs to see what they have created for Simply Sunday.....hugs Terre

Paper Creations Magazine Publication Winter 2011

This is an Autumn Wedding Ensemble I created using Spellbinders S4-202 Deckled Rectangles LG, S4-058 Daisy Heads, S4-232 Blossom Two, S4-235 Fancy Tags, S4-248 Labels Thirteen and I2-1009 Flourish Impressabilities. My Minds Eye Lush Collection pattern paper, Elizabeth Craft Designs Judi with an Eye Shimmer Sheetz in White Iridescent, JustRite Stampers Deluxe Round Monogram Kit in Times New Roman Font, Clearsnap Colorbox Fluid Chalk in Chestnut Roan and Beacon Adhesives Zip Dry.

Die cut two of each out of cardstock and mist with Glimmer Mist

Using floral craft wire, starting with the smallest of the dies beging to wrap and mold the die cuts

keep adding the die cut pieces and mold, remember to mist the cardstoock with the Glimmer Mist as the fibers are easier to work with when they are damp.

here you see how the rose is taking shape

once you are done, mist once more to mold the final pieces into shape, it really looks like a real rose, hard to beileve you have created out of cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today, I hope you have enjoyed this little tutorial, let me know how your roses turn out. Hugs Terre

Thank You Kindly

Before we get started with our Simply Sunday post we would like to say Thank You so much to all of you for your wonderful comments and emails last week for our first Simply Sunday post. We had a few inquiries with people asking to be added to the blog roll for Simply Sundays and at this point in time we are not going to be adding links to other blogs. Simply Sunday is something that we want to keep as simple as possible and we wanted to personally challenge ourselves with creating simple cards and to share them with all of you. However if you decide that you would also like to take on this challenge of creating simple cards please leave a link to you blog or gallery so we can see what you created. Also by leaving a link on one or all of our blogs other people will be able to click on your link and see your creations too.

NESTABLING.......BE MINE!!!!!!

Don't these Valentine's Day cards just look like you bought them from your local store...guess what with the new "Nestabling" you could create these fun and blinged out cards too...just like I did.

Here's what I used to create these cards, Nestabling Labels Five, Nestabling Scalloped Hearts, Want2Scrap Clear Rhinestones, Want2Scrap Red Rhinestones, Spellbinders LF-127 Grand Scalloped Squares, S4-229 Labels Five, LF-161 Grand Labels One, S4-161 Labels Ones, Stamps are from JustRite Stampers, Adorable Dragon and Just Ducky and my favorite paper line....Abbey Road from My Minds Eye
and the Blue Twill is from Creative Impressions.

Here are all of the pieces cut using the Grand Calibur from Spellbinders...just look at that beautiful Nestabling Heart!!!!

I used my Copic Markers to color this adorable dragon, after I was finished coloring I took my colorless blender and dotted the dragon's skin to make it look like scales....cool right?

I added just a Want2Scrap red rhinestone to the dragons tail, after all dragons like bling too!

Love those large format die templates that Spellbinders created, they make the most wonderful card bases.

I cut out the S4-229 Labels Five die templated and using my new "Labels Five Nestabling" adding

 rhinestones was so simple and time saving.....thank you Michele!!!!

I added the clear rhinestones to my S4-235 Fancy Tag to add just a little splash of bling.

Thank you for stopping by my blog post, I hope you have enjoyed my handmade Valentine's Day cards and this wonderful new product..."Nestabling".

Hugs, Terre
