JANE'S THINGS WITH WINGS

Hello and welcome to the 2nd of my "special" posts for STAMPlorations' bimonthly "Things with wings" event. In these posts I am showcasing some fabulous STAMP products which of course "have wings!" For my first card I worked with these awesome products:

    

Flutterby stencil | For the Birds die | Party Time

I used crackle paste through the stencil for my inky background.

This is my card

Here is a close up

My second card uses another lovely stencil, Lupinus, with Winged Things stamps, and a sentiment from Party Time.

    

Again I used the stencil with crackle paste to make my background but this time I painted on top.

I also cut out some gold embossed and glittered dragonflies to complete my scene. Here is my finished card.

If you would like to see a step by step for these 2 projects do join me over on my blog, Jane's Journal here. 

Thanks so much for stopping by. I will be back with my next Things with Wings projects in February.
