Tuesday Ticklers!

It's going to be a big day.  A lot of fun things to share that I think will tickle your fancy.  

If you follow my crafting adventures over the weekend on my Facebook Page I kept the inspiration flowing.  I thought I would share my fav's today. 

I spent a lot of time with Vintage Verses and love that this set gives you a ton of *Versatility*.  That's a bit of a tongue twister.  I see versatility because you can change up so many of the images with a difference of ink or omitting the words inside the labels.  

This card brings an instant smile to my face with the elegance of the Vellum butterfly.  I hand sewed a clear button with Linen Thread onto the center of the butterfly and simply tied a knot on the back and had the tails flow from the back.  Simple technique that can add a little flare to the card.  

The rest is about adding layers.  Starting with a doily and building up with layers of cardstock and punched pieces.  You can see all the supplies below.

The night started to really get busy when I pulled out the Gesso and Designer Paper that had not even been touched ONCE! 

I know! I know!  My Natural Composition Specialty paper has been sitting on the shelf contained in it's cellophane. 

All I can say is… I'm a goon! 

This paper is just lovely. Nice and sturdy with great patterns. 

Of course I wanted to change things up a bit.

I pulled out my Gesso to add a little white and really make the music notes stand out.
