May Arts + LYB + Xyron!

 

May Arts, Little Yellow Bicycle, and Xyron- oh my!

Welcome to Day 3 of the hop! I hope you've been stopping by all the blogs for inspiration (and don't forget about the giveaway(s)!!!)

I've got a couple of really fun cards to share! 

 

I'm in love with this LYB Poppy line! So bright, happy & trendy!

I cut the 'Celebrate' with my cricut and then added glitter with the awesome Xyron Create A Sticker! I ran it through to put the adhesive on the front first & applied the glitter, then ran it through a second time to make my glitter embellie a sticker! FAB!

 

I've used a couple different papers & stickers for this card. And I layered the new 5/8" woven chevron in white (gah!) over 2 layers of the 5/8" sheer ruffle edge in orange. I am loving the effect & will be sure to put it to use again soon! 

 

 Next up!

 

 

 A different pattern from the Poppy line, anchored with the same great chevron pattern at top & bottom that I used on the last card!

Another sticker from the line- and don't you LOVE that CORK flower pin? I used a Xyron 3/16" dot adhesive to apply aqua glitter!

Can you tell I love that 5/8" sheer ruffle? I used the turquoise this time! I tied some bittersweet burlap string around that turquoise bow- yum!

 

 

I've had so much fun pairing these 3 awesome companies together- May Arts ribbons complement the LYB Poppy Line wonderfully- and the Xyron products stick them all together! (Lol!!! I'm cracking myself up!)

June 2013 PTI blog hop

This month the PTI challenge was to add a touch of gold!

 I've got gilded DCWV paper, die & stamp from pretty poppies & sentiment from garden variety. Gold & aqua mist ink.

That awesome gold ribbon is May Arts!

Thanks for stopping by! :)

May Arts + Core'dinations + Stampendous!

Welcome to Day 3 of the hop! :) For my first card I used the Stampendous Cling Dream Text stamp on whitewashed Core'dinations paper & heat embossed with Stampendous Detail Clear embossing powder.   The tag was cut with my cricut & the reverse side of the whitewash paper provides the pink lining. Stickles were used for the flower center. I KNOW you're loving that gorgeous bow! That's May Arts'  Rose Silky Crush ribbon. YUMMO! The tag is tied on with the fabulous burlap string in natural. The Core' Sand-it gadget was used for distressing.  This next card is honestly stunning in person. It's probably in bad taste to say that, but it's true. ;) More of the Core' whitewash & this time the Stampendous jumbo cling poppy was used. This is a large image & I couldn't bear to cut any off so this is a 5x7" card!  I used some purple pigment ink & again embossed with the  Stampendous detail clear powder. I then watercolored the image with  the same purple ink & used black marker on the center.  The scroll image was stamped with versamark & heat embossed  with clear detail powder. May Arts black velvet corduroy was used to anchor the image, and the chevron twill in mauve matched the paper perfectly. I distressed the edges & used more of the whitewash paper as my card base. What do you think? You KNOW there are some fab prizes involved with the hop! So make sure you visit all the blogs participating- you'll have tons of inspiration & if you leave a comment at each one a chance to win: 2 spools of May Arts ribbon! And these: So get hopping!
