Butterfly Queen Bracelet

It’s been a few days, but it’s time to get back in the swing of things! I have some exciting posts coming up, including this one! Hope you enjoy one of my latest creations!
You may recall the bracelet I made using Bombshell Stamps in the beginning of December. Click HERE if you missed that post. I got an amazing response from so many people that I knew I needed to make more. So I started off with the following one, and I made it for my dear friend, Alex.

I used the same methods as I did for the first bracelet… Lots of Mod Podge, Staz-On, Distress Inks, and of course…my gorgeous Bombshell stamps!

I thought that the Butterfly Queen set would make an awesome bracelet because There are so many images in this set that are begging for color! I think the butterflies came out so pretty, and there are so many different Distress Ink colors, the options are endless. Here, I went for a light, airy and magical vibe.
 
Of course, I needed some rhinestones to make this baby pop even more. I chose matte stones, so that it would not only keep the bracelet looking old, but they wouldn’t take away from the stamped images.

Here you can see the size of the bracelet against my hand. It’s about 2” wide. I had a blast making this bracelet, and I will certainly be making more using some of my other fabulous sets!!!

Echo Park Blog Hop with Imagine

Greetings! This is my second post for the day. This one is not part of the 31 Days of Halloween, but rather a super-duper blog hop that the Artists in Residence for Imagine are doing with Echo Park . So if you're here for my Day 7 project, please check out the post HERE . But before you do that, scroll on to check out this one. There are prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check out the Imagine Blog as well as the Echo Park Blogs for details. I created my background by applying Dandelion and Tangelo Memento Ink to my brayer. Then I sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9 to help the colors blend and to act as an extender to keep the inks wet longer. After I rolled the colors out on to watercolor paper and let it dry, I stamped the lovely doily-like image from Echo Park's Simply Sweet Stamp Set with Grape Jelly Memento. I also received the super pretty Heart Doily Designer Die  which I used with a true purple cardstock. But it needed something....and in rolls the super fabul...
