Quietfire-Christmas-2012-web
So are you ready for some creativity? I have created two projects to share with you so for my first one I used Christmas Waves A Magic Wand

I just love all the rich colors you find at Christmas, you can see from this card I have used a rich Christmas Red to create my S5-055 Layered Poinsettia and the leaves are done using a blueish green, reminds me of the Blue Spruce trees from back home in Colorado. I also love stamping on Kraft cardstock and inking the edges, perfect for your Christmas sentiment.
Here is a close up just to show off that amazing Christmas sentiment!
 
Are you ready for my second creation? Ok here it is!
For this tag I used Christmas Cuddlers Word Set, I used the word Snowflakes, I hand trimmed the word flake from a yard sale find dictionary and added some snowflake bling from Want2Scrap along with the Fa la la collection of Christmas paper from Lawn Fawn, can you say cute, cute, cute. This will just be perfect on someone's Christmas present!
Here is a close up so you can see all of the beautiful swirls in the word Snowflakes!
 
Hope you have enjoyed what I have created and don't forget to leave a comment we will be giving away free stamps on each of our blogs. Good luck! Crafty Smiles Terre

Little Darlings

Here is a card I created using Spellbinders Labels Eleven die template, Want2Scraps Labels Eleven Nestaboard and Nestabling and one of my favorite paper lines from Graphic 45, Little Darlings.
I hand trimmed the little pictures and glued them to straight pins using Beacon Adhesives Zip Dry, they just fit perfect in the corner. Inked the edges of the paper with Clearsnaps Fluid Chalk Chestnut Roan.
Added some paper roses and some Want2Scrap Pearl Swirl  to the corner and there you have it, the perfect little card. Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I hope you come back soon for more inspiration. Crafty Smiles, Terre

Mulan Rouge...Bling Style

Happy Friday Everyone! Are you ready for another great day of Creative Goodness? Well grab a cup of coffee and get ready  for some Mulan Rouge...Bling Style!

Want2Scrap is teaming up this week to bring you tons of inspiration using Want2Scrap, Graphic 45, and Art Glitter products!





After you check out the Want2Scrap design team projects on the designers blogs head to Graphic 45 , and Art Glitter's blogs and see the projects made by their talented teams.

So now that you know who is hopping along with the Want2Scrap Design Team how about seeing that project up close and personal?

This is the inside of the "New Corset" album that Want2Scrap released at CHA.

This album is chalked full of stunning goodness right down to the 72 Count Black Rhinestone, Nestabling Petite Scalled Circles Sm, Nestabling Heart Circles Black Rhinestones and Graphic 45 Domestic Goddess Paper Collection.

This page of the album uses Swirls Maxxi Girl Brown Rhinestones. Just look at that swirl goodness!

 
This album page features one of my favorite Want2Scrap products, the Swirls Finesse Silver Rhinestones along with the Silver Baby Rhinestones.

This album page also uses the Swirls Finesse Silver Rhinestones as well as Green Pearl Bling,



I really enjoy creating these mini albums using Want2Scrap and Graphic 45, these products work so well togeth the pages of the albums just seem to create themselves.


Once I have placed all of my pattern paper on the chiboard albums, I sand the edges and then I use my favorite ink by Clearsnaps Chestnut Roan Fluid Chalk to ink the edges to give the album that vintage feel.
I like to hand trim the pieces and pop them up with foam squares. This adds dimension and makes the pages interesting.
I added a Nestaboard Fancy Tags Two and Nestabling Fancy Tags Two Silver Rhinestones decorative broach to the front middle of the corset.

Garden Delights Blog Hop with Quietfire Design

The Quietfire Design Garden Delights Blog Buzz


I was so excited when Suzanne Cannon from Quietfire Design asked me to be a part of this amazing blog hop, I have been a fan of her amazing hand drawn stamps since a mutual friend introduced me to this amazing collection. I am sure you have seen several that you just couldn't do with out.

I used the Garden Delights Set for my card, I love the stamp that says Weed Love, I didn't use it on my card but I get a chuckle because I think no one loves weeds...lol. Here is a few close ups so you can see all the beautiful details in this amazing stamp set.

I used the paper collection Once Upon A Springtime from Graphic 45, I know that Quietfire has several of the Graphic 45 collections. I stamped my Garden Delights Set on the Spellbinders™ Beaded Oval, make sure to see all the amazing die templates that Quietfire Design carries, they match the Spellbinders™ die templates perfect.


For added accents I used Want2Scraps Swirls Finesse Pearl Bling in little bits and pieces just to give the card that added pop.


I hand trimmed the flowers, added Want2Scraps 72 Count Black Pearls to the center of the flower with a touch of Diamond Stickles to make them sparkle.

Quietfire Design would like to introduce you to their new Spring selection of rubber stamps! Each day two designers will be posting brand new artwork they have created using the new rubber stamps.
