Good Morning Sistahs!
Happy Kitchen Sink Monday to you all! I can hardly believe we're already into June! How awesome is that?! And want to know the best news of all?!?! It's almost my Blogaversary! Yeah on June 13th it'll be my one year blogaversary! So...I'm thinkin' I owe it to ya to offer up some Blog Candy, just for stoppin' by and showin' me some stampin' love! *giggle
What better way to kick off the big give away, than to show you what you can win! One lucky winner will receive the 3-Step Butterflies set AND an Anya stamp. How cool is that? I mean, I've probably enabled enough of you that the least I can do is give ya something fun right?! *wink
I have been wanting to create a mosaic for so long that I finally decided to do it with this beautiful set. In order to keep the pieces from going all over the place, I decided I would snip a few random pieces, then glue them down immediately. Boy did that help, especially with the pieces that didn't have ANY stamping on them.
I used a Kaleidacolor pad called Melon Melody for the 1st layer of the butterfly, then I stamped the second layer of the butterfly with Going Gray, and finally the last layer of the butterfly was stamped in black. Once it was all stamped out, I used my Cutterbee scissors and snipped away. After it was all glued down, I went over the butterfly image with my absolute FAVORITE accessory: Glossy Accents. (Hey, while I'm in the giving mood, I'll also throw in a bottle of Glossy Accents too!)
What do ya hafta do to win? Well, it's simple...leave a comment. You'll receive one entry for every comment you leave on posts from now until the 13th. Isn't that super simple?! I'll announce with winner during next week's Kitchen Sink Monday!
Now, hurry on over to see what the rest of the amazingly talented, and wickedly wonderful Kitchen Sink Crew has cooked up for you!
Inky Hugs & Happy Stampin'
Happy Blogaversary! Great card--I would have to be very careful not to get my mosaic pieces messed up! I also like that you have Greeting Farm Fridays along with your Kitchen Sink Mondays.
