Rainbow Snail

This week at One Stitch at a Time (OSAAT), our theme is Use a Digi. StitchyBear's Digi Outlet has hundreds of digital products from many wonderful artists, and if you use one of our products you'll be entered to win the super-duper June prize pack of 7 digis. If you don't use a store image, you'll still be in the drawing to win a $3 gift certificate.

This was my week to choose images for myself & my teamie CraftyGirl. Because I wanted to make a card for my brother-in-law and family, I chose the Stained Snail digi stamp by Stitchy Bear and the Rainbow Digital Paper Pack by Panda Bear Designs.

Inspiration/Challenges:
As You Like it Challenge: Favorite Embossing Technique and Why (heat-embossing digital images, because it combines my love of embossing with the possibility of digital images)
Crafty Creations: Use something that begins with "S" (snail)
Nutcrafters #69: Animals/insects 

Thank you for visiting, and hope you'll join us this week at One Stitch at a Time,

Happiness with One Stitch at a Time

This week at One Stitch at a Time (OSAAT), our theme is Use a Digi. StitchyBear's Digi Outlet has hundreds of digital products from many wonderful artists, and if you use one of our products you'll be entered to win the super-duper May prize pack of 7 digis. If you don't use a store image, you'll still be in the drawing to win a $3 gift certificate.

This week, my teamie Shell chose the Dino Land digital paper set by Panda Bear Designs for us both to use.

Available at StitchyBear's Digi Outlet

It's such a diverse paper pack, and I had a difficult choosing which papers to use. I was inspired by the Volcano Paper, and ended up using it as my focal image. I used the Teal Cave Painting Paper from the PBD set along with DP from Graphic 45's Birdsong collection.

The metal cherry blossoms are from my stash, and popped up with foam tape. I created the Chinese sentiment on the front in SCAL and cut it on my Silhouette Cameo from a Kraft paper stamped with a Woodgrain pattern from Rogue Redhead Designs' Nature Notes set.

Inspiration/Challenges:
