Celebrate Life




Hi everyone and happy Tuesday :)

Today I am excited to share my first card as a DT member for Clearly Whimsy Stamps! Clearly Whimsy Stamps is part of the Whimsy Stamps family :)


The making of this card was really simple: Just 1 or 2 spritzes of Imagine Crafts irRESISTible texture spray in New Sprout, paired with some beautiful stamps from the Clearly Whimsy Stamps "Happy Everything" set and the gorgeous "Butterfly Border Die" cut border from SC Designs!   
That's it :) 
I hope you forgive me saying this, but I am really pleased with the result :)

Of course you can change the sayings and make a Birthday, Get Well, Congratulations or any other type of card! And using other colors from the large palette of irRESISTible texture sprays also can change the mood of your card. 


BTW: If you don't like the little "air bubbles" in the texture spray (see close up blow), you can easily remove them by just using a needle and prick into these bubbles while they are wet :) Personally, I thought they add some extra texture and interest.. therefore I didn't care about removing them :)




Please refer to the grey boxes below this post for step-by-step instructions and a complete list of supplies :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)
