Stamps, embossing and punches

Gotta love tools! Can us crafters ever have too many?

I say NOT! My first card shows off some pretty cute stamps by My Favorite Things and an embossed background thanks to a PaperTrey, Inc. texture plate. 

The circle background piece was created with a circle design background stamp stamped with green embossing powder and then sprayed with color sprays.  The little raindrops are created with Glitter 3-D Fashion paint by Tulip, just the right amount of glitter to make them fun.

My second card shows off my very first blog post at Just Imagine Crafts as part of the Kreaxions punches design team. Go on over there for the close-ups and the how-tos. I show some photos of punching the borders. 

One thing I do want to point out though is a new product find for me. We all struggle with attaching rather bulky elements to our cards and I grabbed a little bottle of Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Glue. I was at my Joann craft store and I found this glue in a little trial size. I think this might be one of my new most favorite products since it does grab fast. 

Thanks for visiting, Linda (lbpost)
