We are still on the fence today - this time with the butterfly trio dies and a little glitter!  I cut three butterflies - two from Orange and one from Orange Gingham cardstock.   Before I cut the smallest butterflu though I stuck a piece of Super stick tape on top of the cardstock - so that when I cut it I could peel off the protective layer and simply sprinkle glitter on it!  You can also use Red-line tape - which we will be carrying in the new catalog! 

Next I made my fence piece woth the Sca;;op dies and a piece of sugar cardstock.  Once cut I ran it thru my corrugating tool (boo hoo we do not carry one!)  I attached my fence to a piece of Sky cardstock.  I also cut a piece of Fern cardstoc with the grass die - and attached it to the bottom of the fence.  I folded all the butterflies in half and then attached them just by the spine of the fold with some Tombow Multi glue.

I attached the sky piece to my card and then added the sentiment and some piercing along the edges.

Clean and simple card - not much stamping but it pack a nice punch in texture and dimension with the corrugating, piercing and glitter!

SO on my agenda today - everything I didn't do yesterday!  :-)  I am still playing with my new goodies for my premiere party next week - and anxiously awaiting my order with even MORE goodies!  In the meantime I actually have a huge jewelry order that I have been putting off for way to long that I need to tackle - so I will probably spend most of my day doing that! 

Less than a week is left to order from the retiring list - and till the new catalog goes LIVE! 

This must be one of my favorite stamp sets because I am using it all the time lately!  On the WIng - I stamped the birds with Eucalyptus ink and cut them out.  Then I took a strip of sugar and scallop cut one edge and then ran it thru a crimping tool.  (we dont have one but hope they will add one SOON!)  I attached that piece to the front of a Sky notecard.  Then I cut a piece of Fern with the grass die and aqttached it to the bottom of the card.

I attached the birds on top of the fence with 3D foam adhesives and stamped the greeting with Onyx ink.  For a little finishing touch I tied a piece of Onyx Bakers Twine to the top of the card.

I have another card with this fence idea that I will show you tomorrow!  In the mean time I am working on stuff with NEW Products that I brought home from conference!  I am saving it all for my premiere party on the 2nd - so I won't be sharing any new stuff til then!  You still have time NOW to order from the retiring list though - I was lucky to only have 1 set retiring - but I had a list of ones I wanted and am SO glad to have time left toi get them before they are gone for good!!

If you are like those birds on the card and on the fence about a*muse studio - don't be!  I have heard that from so many people about signing up to "do this".

I am still floating on cloud nine after our National Conference!  I met (and got to know better) some AMAZING women and am SO excited for the journey we are on together with a*muse studio!  It makes such a difference to me to have others with me on the journey!  We can inspire each other and build each other up - and even push each other!   And even better is to get to know the behind the scenes people at the company and their character and ethics.  It means alot to know they have integrity and honestly first and foremost in everything they do.  It means alot to me - and I can go forward passionately promoting a*muse studio with confidence!  If you are looking for a way to do what you LOVE (stamping!) and make some $$ - this is it!  I am telling you they make it easy - way easier than it has ever been for me before.  If you want more info email me!

I am gonna go back to stamping now...:-)  That is after all what this is all about isn't it?
