JustRite & Stamper's Dream Design Team March Release Blog Hop

Good morning! Today JustRite and Stamper's Dream are teaming up for a Design Team March Blog Hop! Along the hop we have 3 great blog candy prizes hidden!! No one knows where the blog candy is! For your chance to win one of these three prizes simply leave a comment on each blog. Blog comments will remain open until 8 pm CST - Tuesday March 22nd. The 3 winners will be announced on the Stamper's Dream Blog and the JustRite Blog on Wednesday March 23rd. Here is what you have a chance to win - 4 JustRite Stamps sets of your Choice, A $50.00 Prize package from Stamper's Dream (as shown in the photo below) or a $50.00 Shopping Spree to the JustRite Webstore. Sounds like some Fabulous prizes to me!! I will have a link list with all of the Designers at the bottom of this post so you can visit each blog, leave a comment and have a chance to win the hidden blog candy!!For today's blog hop I created a card to share with you using JB-09855 Heart to Heart and CL-02105 Elegant Frames stamp sets from JustRite Stampers. This is the JB-09855 Heart to Heart stamp set with included 4 Center Sentiments and 4 Interchangeable borders.This is the CL-02105 Elegant Frames stamp set with includes 2 Large Decorative Frames, 1 Smaller Frame, 2 Accents and 6 Sentiments for a total of 11 stamps! JustRite offers the Original Ribbed stamps and Cling stamp sets that can be mixed and matched offering endless possibilities for customizing your stamps and design work. To start I stamped the larger frame from the CL-02105 Elegant Frames unto Simply Smooth White Cardstock from DCS using Rose Bud ink. Then I taped the largest rectangle die template from the JustRite Custom Dies JB-08950 Nested Frame Dies for perfect placement on the frame. Next I stamped the border and the sentiment from JB-09855 Heart to Heart unto Simply Smooth White Cardstock from DCS using Rich Cocoa ink. I used the S4-110 Classic Oval Large #4 from Spellbinders on the butterfly border and the tag die template from the JustRite Custom Dies JB-08950 Nested Frame Dies. Then I used the Grand Calibur from Spellbinders to cut/emboss the die cut shapes. Before taping the die templates in place I inked the inside edges with Clearsnap Color Box Chestnut Roan Chalk Ink. This technique is called Reverse Stenciling and the results will be a nice crisp inked edge to match the project. Here you can see in the photo the pretty chocolate brown edges, this is from the Reverse Stenciling technique. For the larger frame I inked the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink from Ranger. For the tag I used Antique Linen Distress Ink and Rose Bud Ink from Tsukineko. I colored the butterflies on the border with Copic markers and then inked the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink.The background paper is from Prima, the Madeline Collection. I inked the edges with Chestnut Roan ink and edged all of the flowers and leaves with Diamond Stickles from Ranger.Here is a close up of the front of the card. I added Diamond Stickles to the flourishes in the large frame, the butterflies in border and the edges of the tag. To create the Fleur de Lis accents I used S5-043 Fleur de Lis Doily Motifs and the Grand Calibur from Spellbinders to cut/emboss the die cut shapes. I also added little bits of Turquoise Baby Bling from Want2Scrap.In this photo you can see all the sparkle from the Diamond Stickles.I used Zip Dry™ from Beacon Adhesives™ to adhere the Fleur de Lis accent pieces. Zip Dry™ is the perfect glue for attaching small elements, if you get a little glue that seeps out from under the small pieces you can just gently rub the glue off! How cool is that? It's totally fail safe! The turquoise cardstock used for the card base and mat is from Core'dinations. The yummy Posh Milk Chocolate Felt cardstock is from DCS. I added 3D Foam Squares from SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES By 3L™ to the border and the tag. To finish the card off I added a few more pieces of Turquoise Baby Bling from Want2Scrap to the upper and lower corners.
