A Celebration ~ Double D Challenge ~ Wedding

Hello stamplings!  I'm always happy when I find ways to use up some of the printed design papers in my stash.  This challenge from Double D Challenges, "Wedding"  gave me the perfect opportunity to do that!  

I started with these beautiful papers from Mintay by Karola called 7th Heaven.  

I cut a frame using Spellbinder Hemstitch Rectangles and fussy cut a floral spray from the printed papers and added it to the lower right corner.  

This lovely cake is cut using Sue Wilson Designs Make A Cake Necessities Collection.  I adore this die set!!  I lightly blended some spun sugar Distress Oxide Ink to each of the cake layers and then assembled the cake, adding tiny flowers from Cheery Lynn Designs Baby's Breath Flower Kit.  The ivy is from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  Hopefully you can see the glittered Stickles I used in the centers of each of the flowers.

For the sentiment, I used Papertrey Inks Banner Style

Please stop by the Double D Challenge Blog for more inspiration from my talented team mates and join in on the fun!

Here's what you could win:

A Lovely Congratulations Card ~ DRU Graduation / Congratulations

Helo all!  We're coming into the midst of graduation season and I think it's so important that we don't forget our grads who are not able to walk across the stage and hear their name called on graduation day.  I have two important young people in my life that are graduating this year and my heart is sad for them, that they can't experience this life event that all students look forward to at the end of all their hard work.  

 Dies R Us Challenge Blog is starting a new challenge with the them of Graduation / Congratulations.

I started with these beautiful 7th Heaven papers from Mintay by Karola. I fussy cut the floral frame and butterfly from the accessories page in the paper pack.

I paired the floral frame with Sue Wilson Designs Australian Collection ~ Brisbane and attached the butterfly so that it's wings are dimentional.  Look at the lovely detail on that lacy frame.  Just beautiful!  I added just a hint of color using Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink.  Isn't it heavenly??

I wanted to remind you that we have some exciting news to share with you.  Dies R Us now has opened a sister store with warehouses in the USA and Canada called Didi Crafts.  

They ship to both the US and Canada.  Didi Crafts will carry some of the same products as DRU, but most will be different.  Now our Canadian friends don't have to worry about huge taxes or shipping fees. How great is that!?!  We'd love for you to visit by clicking on the links above or by clicking here.
