Hi Everyone,
Well it is Monday, which means back to the grind stone. Sort of Speaking. :)
This past week end was my Stamp-a-Stack at Scrap-a-Doodle Doo in Ramsey, NJ and we had a full house. :) The Ladies attending my class had a great time and learned some new things along the way.
The card below is one of the cards we made.
Thanks for stopping by today. :)
Hi Everyone,
Happy Friday! Yesterday was my day to post over at PINK BY DESIGN and I shared the card below with the tutorial. Hope you enjoy and learn something new. I can't take credit for this as I had a dear friend show me how to do the pansy's. :)
I new I wanted a cluster of Pansy's so I just clustered them all together and then put a few leaves in the mix.
The sentiment is using Pink by Designs "MY FAVORITE KIND". This set is currently the Stamp of the Month! CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS! (and is Currently my Favorite set!!)
To make these pansy's you will need : Feel free to click on the pictures to make them bigger.
1. Spray your butterflies with water. The water should puddle on top of the butterflies. (Your butterflies could be cut out using a punch or a silhouette image you may have. Just make sure they are solid)
2. Take your re-inkers and do a little drop on your non stick mat. A little goes a long way. If you need more you can always add more. :)
3. With your water brush "dip" the tip into the yellow re-inker. (you can you and combination of colors you choose. I used yellow for the center and a rose color for my edges. Pansy's usually have a little white in them, so I left some in the middle. )
4. After you "dip" the tip in the re-inker just smudge it on where you want it to go. The water will move it around. The best part is that no 2 pansy's will be alike.
5. Add your second color into the mix.
6. I wanted my colors to bleed some more so I sprayed it again with water.
7. I used my heat gun to head dry my butterflies. (you can let these sit until they are dry. I don't have any patience for that. lol)
8. Use your black pen to draw the stripes into the flower. Just quick little strips that lead to a center.
9. Use your paper piercer to polk a hole in the center of the butterflies for your brad to go through.
10. I used my paper piercer, the other end, to roll out my edges of the butterfly.
11. This is what it looks like at this point. Then you layer them up and put your brad in to secure them together.
12. Your finished product should look something similar to this. Remember: NO 2 Pansy's are alike! :)
Have a great day everyone! :)

Hi Everyone! :)
As Tuesday is slowly trucking along I thought I'd pop in here and share another card with you.
On Friday I am in a Shoe Box Swap with some great friends. A shoe box swap is where you prepare 1 card/project and everything to complete that card/project is included in the box. (minus the basic tools like glue scissors....) then you go around the room from spot to spot to put together every ones projects/cards. :) There are NOT ANY SHOES in the shoe box swap. :) lol
This is my card/project I created.
Inside view here:
All the items used in this project are Stampin' Up. (except the Sunflower Seed Packet) :)

Hi Everyone,
Holy Cow! You guys sure do know how to make a girl happy! ;)
Thank you all for all the nice comments on my blog hop post from this past Friday. Thanks to all the new followers who is now following me here and on my facebook page. StampAnna Designs. If you haven't seen it yet I posted a tutorial video over there.
This past Saturday I went with some friends to a Tea House in Wayne, NJ for High Tea. We had a great time. Then afterwards we went over to my dear friends house for an afternoon of stamping and chatting. This is one of the cards I came up with. It is kind-of a simple card which every now and again we all need a little "Simple" in our lives. :)
All the supplies here are by Stampin' Up except the seam binding ribbon which was purchased at a cute little vintage place in Montclair, NJ called Parcels. I love the "peachy-orangey" color. I may have to go and add more to my ever-growing stash of ribbon.
