Hi there, Stampin' Friends! Here is the second card I made with the 'leftover' shaving cream card stock. There is a lot going on in this card but I am pleased with the way it turned out.
The background was created with the Very Vintage wheel. I have 'unmounted' all of my wheels and attached the 'rubber stamp' to Clear Mount Cling Foam. For me, it goes from being a wheel to a useable stamp! I used the Adorning Accents Edgelits and the Adorning Accents embossing folder to create the scallops. If you click on the photo, you can enlarge it. Click here to see how I did the shaving cream technique. 'My way' of doing this technique uses the largest clear acrylic block and a smaller block for blending the colors.
Thank you for looking! If you feel lead to leave a comment, please do so and if you have any questions, please ask.

Hi there, Stampin' Friends! Today I want to share one of the cards I created using left-over shaving cream card stock from my previous project. (You can see the post along with a video on this technique here. ) I punched three butterflies with the Elegant Butterfly punch, stapled them together, and colored the staple with a brown permanent marker. The butterflies look like they are floating. I ran the Very Vanilla card stock through the Big Shot with the oval Designer Frames embossing folder first, folded back one tab on my Multipurpose Platform and ran the card stock through again in the Framed Tulips folder. This was my attempt at 'not squishing' the oval frame...it turned out great! I stamped a sentiment using my Stamp a ma jig and layered onto the card base. Quick, easy, and beautiful!

Hi there, Stampin' Friends! Here is the second April 2014 Make n Take. I shared in my last post that my goal was to post photos and a video showing how our monthly samples are created. I have a great group of ladies and they suggested I make videos so they have a reference to refer to regarding how we created our projects. Please keep mind that these are my first two videos 'filming solo'. I am 'out of frame' here and there. I'll be working on that problem in future videos!
This sample is a Gate Fold. We used the clear acrylic blocks, shaving cream, and reinkers to create the smaller butterfly. I also had samples showing the use of the leftover card stock, which I will post in the next few days.
Here is a view of the card open:
