WPlus9 April Release 2011: Group Post

Well, tonight is the night!!  It is the last day of release week at WPlus9.  The stamps and die are up and available for purchase in the WPlus9 Store, so be sure to head on over and pick up what your heart has been fancying this week.  We all have one more sample to share with you this week for the final group post, and it is sure to be some pure eye candy!

I did another card featuring the "Filigreed Frames" set.  I utilized the frame in a vertical format again, which seemed to get your attention in yesterday's post...I am so happy you liked it!  I also paired it with some of the latest Glitz Design papers, which I just utterly adore.  And last, but definitely not least...I used the Viva la Verve! March 2011 Sketch #5 for my card.  Here is what I came up with!

"For All That You Do" supplies: 

Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (vintage cream, kraft) 

Paper/Tulle: Glitz Design (Laced with Grace: Floral, Stripe, Rose, Butterflies)

Stamps: WPlus9 (Filigreed Frames set, Labels Layer 1 Die) 

Ink: CTMH (Pigment: vanilla cream) & Clearsnap (roussillon, chestnut)

Button/Jewels: Doodlebug Designs

Lace: craft supply

Twine: Darice Inc. 

Pearls: Kaiser Craft

Flowers: Recollections & Michael's brand

Border Punch: Fiskars 

Diecut Machine: Cuttlebug by Provo Craft

Sandpaper

Instructions:  Fold cream cardstock in half to make card base.  Cut an orange paper block slightly smaller, and sand the edges.  Punch an apron lace border to striped paper and adhere to a block of rose paper.  Sand the edges and adhere to the bottom of the orange paper block.  Zig zag stitch along the outside of the entire block, and adhere to the card front.  Add the green crocheted trim to the left side of the card, and then tie brown tulle around the seam.  Diecut and stamp the sentiment frame, and adhere to the front of the card.  Thread a button with twine, and then tie around a calla lily floral bunch.  Adhere the flower accent to the middle of the tulle bow, and then accent with an orange paper rose.  Add three jewels to the bottom right of the floral accent.  Cut two butterflies from patterned paper, and adhere to the sentiment tag.  Add a strip of pearls to the middle of each butterfly to finish. 

Well, I really hope that you have enjoyed my first release week as a WPlus9 design team member!  I know that I have had a ton of fun this week using these new stamps, and I foresee myself using them a lot more in the coming weeks!!  Thanks so much for coming along on this new journey with me, and I hope that you will continue to stop by my blog when the weeks aren't as exciting! :)  And now, don't forget to check out what all the other amazing WPlus9 girls have come up with for the group post, as I know it will be a treat!!
