So Suzy Anniversary!!!
Hi there! Today is a very special day for me and for a lot of crafty friends. April is a month of celebrations in our house of So Suzy Stamps and Crackerbox Palace!!! This is my fourth year with So Suzy Stamps, and my first with Crackerbox Palace and I am in a real party mood during this time to remember the good things and the oops!
Today I am sharing something special and different. I will CASE myself! I selected one card that I made a few years ago, and based on that I will show a new creation that I made during this weekend to remember the best times on my DT live with So Suzy Stamps. Take a look at my cards:
If you want to remember the first card that I made, and see all the details about it you can CLICK HERE to see on my blog and/or CLICK HERE to see on So Suzy’s Blog. But today I will share my new models of material and stamps.
This Fancy Butterfly has been one of my favorite images throughout the years! Since the first image that I saw on the DT Group I felt that I needed it! I stamped the Fancy Butterfly randomly over very vanilla card stock with Kaleidacolor ink. I used the Bouquet kaleidacolor Ink Pad and I just applied the ink directly over the rubber.
Then using the Die-Namics Stitched Hexagon STAX from MFT, I die cut the center of two butterflies. I pasted the stamped layer over the card base using snail adhesive.
Then I stamped the sentiments Happiness is using VersaFine Clair Paincone and Clear Embossing Powder. I pasted the two hexagons in the corresponding place but using dimensionals behind to obtain the different heights.
To have a major contrast, I added a lower banner with Lavander/Lavander Starstruck Rinea Paper Foil and applied a few drops of Crushed Grape Nuvo Crystal Drops.
This is one of my favorite styles of cards, Clear and Simple. And if I used one card as inspiration to create this you can do the same and CASE me or case your own creations, because in this crafty world, everything is inspiration!
