My blog is called "Creative Smiles" because my designs are the result of incorporating mistakes. With fumble fingers that drop whatever they are holding - repeatedly, it takes a lot of giggles, smiles and creative patience during my crafting process. xx

Garden Fairy

Welcome, everyone!
Hope this finds you doing well.

Today I'm celebrating my birthday by guest designing for
the Scrapbook Stamp Society
using this darling Garden Fairy image by Sherri Baldy!

Although we love living in Florida,  it is still hot and humid here.
My card reveals that I'm dreaming of the cooler, less humid days of a Florida Autumn
 -- another 3-4 weeks to go! sigh...



I always enjoy coloring these sweeties with Copic Markers.
Brings out the little girl in me.





Design Tip:

Don't waste that pretty paper!


Here is a Close Up of the "easel stop" using the left over portions:


Love this pearly coated vellum! Wish the photos better reflect it!

(The heart brad was an ugly color, so it was heated up, dipped into embossing powder, with the process repeated two more times. The EP is a Cosmic color, giving it that creamy, pearly finish)


Tip:

Use your stash by changing those outdated flowers!
On the left are the bright yellow Prima Flowers.
On the right, they have been inked, crumpled, and layered.



Finished card:
(gorgeous embossing folder! It's a shame to cover it up!)


Thanks for popping by today, friends!
