Tsunami Rose Centre Stair Step Card

Today it's Friday and it's Tsunami Rose Day here .......

As you likely know if you have visited here before 

I LOVE TSUNAMI ROSE PAPERS....

they are all beautiful and vintage....

and the very best thing about them is...

They are digital...

so if you have a favourite, you can print it again and again..

Today I am showing you two different files...

Printable Vintage Shipping Tags-French Labels

Printable Scrapbook Paper No.5

I made a centre step card to showcase these files...

The french tags are at the back... and I also used one

cut up with a spellbinder die..for the background of the sentiment.

On the rest of the card I used the gorgeous rose paper that I inked

all around the edges. I added pearl brads on the tags.

I also added lace on the card and diamond pearl trim.....

I also used a metal flowers from Miriam...

I made a middle for the flowes with some gems I had...

The sentiment is computer generated.

Two souls but a single thought

Two hearts that beat as one...John Keats.

Tea Cup Challenge Itza Thoughts

Today I am showing you a Tea Cup I made for a challenge.

Itza from Itza Thoughts challenged us to make a tea cup like hers.

This challenge is on facebook!!! Elegant Embellishments is the facebook group.

I loved both templates but decided to use this one..

then I decided to add a butterfly to my tea cup..

The butterfly is from Miriam's Crafting Supply.

I haven't decided what to do with the bottom yet but

I am going to use that lace for the bottom.

This paper is from my stash..

It's very old but I love it.

I used burlap at the back.

The metal leaf and the flower are from Miriam's Crafting Supply..


I am entering this tea cup in a few challenges..

Retiring Digital Papers from Tsunami Rose

This post is picture heavy so be prepared.

I am so sorry this is late but blogger and I had a little row again.

Actually blogger had the row and I came in late to the game...

There are quite a few digital papers retiring from Tsunami Rose Designs right now.

You have to see them to believe how beautiful they are.

I love the vintage feel to each and every one of them. 
I also love how you can mix and match them and they go perfectly together.

You will see in two of my projects today I have mixed the

 papers for beautiful results.

My first card is a wedding card that I made for a friend.

I used "Romantic Couple" digital 6x6 paper for this card.

It's on sale for only 49 cents right now and you can use it over and over again.

I made the image 5 3/4 then added yellow and brown cardstock layers

All the flowers and tulle are from my stash. 

You can just see it dangling.. I have a heart from Pinque Peacock.

The sentiment says Wishing you love and laughter forever after.

My next card is I think my VERY favorite image from 

Daisy's store... I know I keep saying that but I ABSOLUTELY 

love this vintage boot. It's called "Vintage Floret" and its a 6x6 file also.

As soon as I saw this image I knew I had to make a Christmas card.

I know it's May but ... you will see..

It's called Hark The Hearld Angels Sing

I don't know if you can tell but I printed this image on Bazzill Bling cardstock.

I love the look of the card ... it shimmers...

Flowers and angel and pearls and corners from my stash.

For my third card I used Two papers from the sale.

"Vintage Children's Printable 1" and 8x8 "Vintage Bike" in sepia.

I love the way the two papers just go together.

The little girls in the file made me want to make a birthday card.

I added some lace and and burlap flower with a pearl and 

it is the perfect card for a little girl's birthday.

I think that is one of the things I love most about Daisy's designs.

The cards almost make themselves. Almost as soon as I see an

image I know what  it is going to be.

I can see myself using the image on the far left soon

for another card.. something about that girl just makes me 

want to make a card..

For my last project I made an altered box.

The papers are just beautiful, thank goodness

because I am still struggling with this mixed media stuff.

I had a image in my head but it didn't come out anything like I thought.

I should have just gone with papers and modge podge and

left the textures to gals that know what they are doing.

Oh well .. I made this to hold any jewelry I buy at yard sales to

take apart for my crafts. 

(which I did yesterday) (woohoo.... a big score)

I used  "Vintage Roses" 6x6

"Efflorescence" 6x6

and "Vintage Picardy Roses" 6x6

The top you can see the Picardy Roses..

Bottom in the middle one of the Vintage Roses

This is from Efflorescence.. I actually printed out that file

3 times to use mostly on the box.. Then I printed out

the other two files 2 times to fill in everywhere.

Here is Vintage Roses again.

I also used Washi Tape here and there..

The raised spots are a burlap ribbon that I painted over

then added some ink.. that is the part I wish I 

could change.. the rest of the box I love..

I added some flowers.  

A gorgeous pin from Pinque Peacock that I had made for me...

Also a floral fan made with 3 girl jamr crinkle ribbon.

I also added a little lace and some bling..

I think I will try covering those spots with some more

of Daisy's papers then I will be happy with my box.

Come on over to Daisy's shop and get these papers

now before they are gone for good.

If you spend $5 you get a free gift.

Pinque Peacock - Retirement Card

Today I made a retirement card for you.

It's a screen card.

I haven't done the sentiment yet

as I want something special but I havne't

found just the right one yet.

It is very rustic.. but that is what I was going for.

I used a yellow gingham splendid swirl.

 (they come in two sizes and lots of fabrics!)

The back side of the card was embossed
then white washed then stamped.

The front was modge podged with a napkin (green and white gingham)

(which you can't see at all) and then all kinds

of mediums on it.. Finally stamped it...

I love these screen cards but I think I 

will make the next one shorter.

Hope you like my card and if

you have any ideas for sentiments for this card

I would love to hear them...


Come and join our Pinque Peacock Challenge.
It's all about altered tags this month and I
would love to see yours...

Tsunami Rose - Vintage Tags with Love And Flowers

As soon as I saw these tags I knew they had to be Love tags.
These tags are called Vintage Flowers Printable #1
The tags all print onto  8 1/2 x 11 paper.
It's on sale right now for $1.50
Daisy is retiring some fantastic digital papers.
I made a mini tag book with the papers.
Here is my little tag book..

I just love the amazing flowers on all the tags.

This file has round tags and banner tags and tags.

These tags made me want to do a tag mini book.

The colours are subtle but jump right out at you.

I love the vintagy feel of these tags. 

There are  so many possibilities with these tags.

I want to add lots of laces to the binder ring but 

I want just the right lace so I will be carrying these

tags around with me till I do... 

I added some lace and metal buttons on each tag.

May Specials....

My Garden Mini Album from Pinque Peacock

Happy Saturday!

Today I want to show you a cute bag mini album.

This mini album is made with a recycled bag with a handle.

I have used a cute fabric covered button with a ladybug on it from Pinque Peacock.

I also used some of the very cool Chicken Wire Garland Mesh 
also from Pinque Peacock..

One piece I used for a photo frame and the other piece is

a holder I made for my seed packages.


Here is my video...
