Happy spring friends! It's butterfly bliss in my neck of the world with the gorgeous spring Studio Light Grunge Collection. I have had just so much fun playing with these new stamps, as you've seen from my previous posts. Today I have two very different projects to share with you. First, a CAS square card featuring the new Floral Butterfly stamp (SL-GR-STAMP402). Isn't this stamp gorgeous! I used Distress Inks to watercolor the image (Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry, Antique Linen and Squeezed Lemonade). I finished with a sentiment by Jenine's Mindful Art (JMA-ES-STAMP340).

Studio Light Lily of the Valley Stamp Slimline Cards
Hi friends! Today I have a couple of simple slimline cards to share with you featuring the new Studio Light Grunge Collection Lily of the Valley stamp (SL-GR-STAMP395). What an incredibly beautiful stamp it is! I could not stop with one card and enjoyed coloring two panels in different colorways. My Grandmother and I always sang together and one of our favorites was, "He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star. He's the fairest of ten thousands to my soul. He will never, ever leave me, nor forsake me still, if I live by faith and do His blessed will." Such sweet memories...

Studio Light Grungy Hearts Mask Cards
Hi friends! I've been playing with the new Grungy Hearts Mask (SL-GR-MASK180) by Studio Light and pulled out my Dina Wakely Gloss Sprays for a change. I used Marine and Eggplant over the mask and die cut the panel with the Christmas Grunge Collection cutting dies. I just love this die set for the cool border. I overstamped my panel with the Text Background stamp (SL-ES-STAMP369), embossed in white. I cut hearts from the Handbag Pillow Box die set (SL-ES-CD498) to add layers to my work. The butterfly wings are from the Butterflies Grunge stamp set (SL-GR-STAMP399) and the sentiment is from the new Sunshine sentiment stamp set (SL-ES-STAMP387).

Studio Light Spring Grunge Stamp Release Daffodil Cards
Hi friends! I'm so excited that the brand new Grunge collection by Studio Light has landed at my door! I spent the weekend getting lost in creativity and what fun I had! For this post, I've focused on the Daffodil Flowers stamp (SL-GR-STAMP396). These flowers have just bloomed in South Carolina and are a sure sign the seasons are changing! I started by using the stamp true to its design and made a slimline card.
I used an older set of Studio Light Cutting Dies (SL-GR-CD346). I scored a piece of white card in half and used the new Studio Light Stencil Tape (SL-ES-STTA01) to hold the largest die in place in my cutting machine. I edged one side just over the score line so I ended up with a folded, decorative edge card. This tape is a low tack tape and works great for die cutting and stenciling. I wasn't sure the die would cut both layers of card, but I angled the die into the cutting pressure and it worked just fine!
