Polished to Perfection

Introducing JustRite Cling Background Stamps

Today I am very excited to share with you JustRite's newest cling products - background stamps. 

You will find yourself creating wonderful designer papers with these stamps - over an over again !! Now when you need a specific color of designer paper you can create your own!!

For my card today I wanted to really show off the Vintage Wallpaper Background Stamp, so I stamped the Vintage Wallpaper Background stamp twice - once in cantaloupe, once in tangelo.  Then I die cut both images at the same time with Classic Scallops Edgeabilities to ensure that the pattern repeat would match when I cut apart the tangelo image to create a stripe on the cantaloupe image. I was very careful when I cut apart the tangelo image to match the repeat so that it would appear to the eye as one piece of paper with stripes of color.  This creates a warm and summery background for my Botanical Butterflies image. 

Next I inked a small area of the background stamp with pear tart to create a background paper to stamp the "Just A Note" Sentiment from Musical Notes and then I die cut it with the tear drop tag die form JustRite Nested Sentiments and Dies.

 Project Recipe:
JustRite Stamps: Vintage Wallpaper Backgrounds, Musical Notes Labels Twenty, Botanical Butterflies
Dies: Spellbinders Lacey Circles, Classic Scalloped Edgeabilities, JustRite Nested Sentiment Dies
Inks: Memento- Tuxedo Black, Dandelion, Tangelo, Pear Tart, Copic Markers -
Y13, Y35, YG13, YR03
Paper: Cosmo Cricket Something Blue, WorldWin Doublemates -Graceful Geranium; Neenah Classic Crest Natural White
Accessories:Prima Flowers, Gold Rhinestone 

I personal love the simple elegance of our next background release image - Scrolled Vine Background Stamps.  With this background stamp you can create a stunning Wedding, Christmas, Anniversary or Thank You card in a matter of minutes.  Wait till you see all the fabulous projects the design team created with this set!! 

 For my card I wanted to create a pastel and gold wedding card.  The image was stamped with Danube Blue on Neenah Classic Crest Natural White and them I colored the background with shades of pale yellow and the scroll work with shades of coral.

To give my background stamp a warm glow I distressed the edges and the area above and below the solid stripe with Rosebud Ink and a Jumbo Dauber.  Using plum ink and a sentiment from Wedding Nested Sentiments - currently on sale for just $5.00 while supplies last!! Next I added the ruffled ribbons -- one layer of pink, one layer of yellow and you will notice I alternated there orientations when I added them above and below the sentiment.  For some bling I added gold glittered rhinestones and a gold glittered flower from Prima. For the final touch I die cut the leaf element from gold foil.

Greetings from Paris - JustRite September Release

 It's Day Two of JustRite's September Release over at the JustRite Blog.  Today I am introducing Greetings from Paris.

 

 The Paris Subway Art Label from Greetings from Paris  is designed to coordinate with Spellbinders Die Template S4-190 Labels Four and JustRite Customs Nested Frame Dies (the Postcard Element is designed to be Die Cut with the Largest Rectangle Die).

The Shabby Chic Flourish is perfect for adding a Shabby Chic Flair to your projects.  For my card I started with A Shabby Chic Notecard Set that I purchased at the Dollar Store.  I cut off the Front of the card and matted it with Kaiser Kraft Paper.  Then to give it it's Shabby Chic Flair I stamped the Shabby Chic Flourish with Rhubarb Stalk.

 

 I also stamped the Parisian Subway Art Label in Rhubarb Stalk and then distressed it using New Sprout to give me an overal base distressed color then I added some Rosebud distress to the right hand side of the image.

The Clock and the Key are Boy Bunny Trinkets that I white washed with paint to give them a more feminine feel.

 

Thanks for stopping by!!  The designe team has an absolutely amazing set of projects using this set!! You can see them all on the JustRite Blog plus you can visit their individual blogs for all the Shabby details.  the design team will be back tomorrow with projects using Shabby Chic Labels Four!!

Introducing Christmas Trimmings

 Over at the JustRite Blog it is the first day of the JustRite CHA July Release sets!!   Today we are introducing our 4th Christmas Cling Set - Christmas Trimmings.   For my project I decided to try my first shaped card using Spellbinders Grand Labels Four Nestabilities  - and I must say I am in love with shaped cards now!! 

 
For this project I wanted to play off the design of my shaped card - so I used the poinsettia element to frame my sentiment while accenting the fun shape of my card.  I used a Memento Tuxedo Black Marker to  ink my poinsettia imag so that I could omit soke of the swirls in the design for the poinsettias that are in the One O'Clock and Five O'Clock postiions on my card. To create my trim - I wove a 1/8" red ribbon with gold trim through my piece of crocheted trim which gave it the perfect feel for my card.  Now here is a look at the entire set!! 

Project Recipe: 

JustRite Stamps: CL-02180 Christmas Trimmings,
Dies : Spellbinders Nestabilities Grande Labels Four Dies
Paper: The Girls Paperie - tinsel & twig,  Neenah Natural White, Blue Cardstock
Ink & Markers:  Memento  Tuxedo Black,  Desert Sand, Jumbo Dauber; Copic Markers R27, R29,R46,YR09,YG03, YG45, G24, YR23, 0
