Now onto my project!

I had fun using the very fun Decoration Applicator -Butterflies for me card along with a die cut (Simon Says Stamp – 111313 Thanks on a Line)

This is the Plus Corp Decoration applicator. It holds different pre-inked roller stamps. Easy to use and the images came out nice and crisp.

I used the Decoration Applicator -Butterflies for my project. I put the cartridge in and closed the lid and was ready to create.

I rolled the butterflies 3 times diagonally on my card.

I sponged ink around the butterflies, colored with markers and then splatter a bit with white paint. I then added the die cut sentiment (Thanks on a Line) and finished my card by adding a button onto the sentiment.

Now hop on over to PLUS Corp!!!

STAMPtember Fall Love

I get to play along with STAMPtember at Simon Says Stamps today!!!

STAMPtember is a celebration of all things crafty the entire month of September at Simon Says Stamps. How fun is that? Make sure you check out the Simon Says Stamp Blog for a blitz of beautiful projects.

I’ll be featuring stamps & dies from Impression Obsession today and there is a coupon for 20% off! Use code IMPRESS25

I love fall colors and weather, especially after a HOT Texas summer.

I lined up my paper (I used Canson XL Watercolor) in the corner of my MISTI stamp positioning tool and positioned the CC024 Cover a Card Fancy Leaves onto the lid of the MISTI. Ink randomly with Ranger Distress Fired Brick and Spiced Marmalade. Leave the stamp in the MISTI (very important!). Splash a little water on the paper and let the ink bleed. Let dry.

Reposition your paper in the MISTI and ink the stamp again using the same inks for a nice crisp image.

I splattered a little Spiced Marmalade on Crafter’s Companion Ultra Smooth White cardstock. After it was dry I used the Impression Obsession DIE130-D Love Border Word Die and my Big Shot and Sizzix Precision Base Plate to die cut my watercolored layer and a layer using 100# Simon Says Stamp Dark Chocolate cardstock (I also used this for my base). Offset the two die cuts a hair before gluing them together and trim to fit the background. Attach to card.
