This was fun to make and quite quick. I actually made these 2 about 3 weeks ago before, well, blah blah. I need to get my jolt juice again! So I have this little ladybug stamp which I stamped and embossed in black. I took a red tombow marker to colour the little bugs. I added a scrap red paper plus my heavy, sparkle, black felt and glued them down. I inked the saying in black and added black sparkle embossing powder to most of the words but added red sparkle to the word "loves'. I used my flower punch from a yellow and orange scrap paper for some zowie colour burst with 2 red gems for the centre.

Sparkles Monthly-Use a Real Stamp

I have a weekly day planner and, each week, a new picture is shown for that week. There are these beautiful birds, don't ask me what they are, but they have light blue head, iridescent body in blue and red legs. I decided to try to reproduce this using embossing powders that I sprinkled down in the area I wanted that colour to be. I heat embossed it so the colour is melted on (one uses the heating tool every time you emboss with embossing ink and powders). I took a Q-Tip to spread some darker blue around the image and adhered it to the cardstock. I finished it off with some pretty cherry blossoms and the flower gems. Oh, to make sure the chalk plus other stuff, like Perfect Pearls, doesn't come off your fingers, I spray hairspray in the air and move the card through the mist. 

Can you believe June is already here?
