Something Exciting to Share... 105

Mona Pendleton | Wednesday, May 4, 2011 @ 7:00 AM | , , ,

Hi there! I have some VERY exciting news that I have been wanting to share and now the day has arrived when I can spill the beans! If you have visited me in the past, you already know how much I LOVE creating with JustRite Stampers. Well Kellie Fortin at JustRite has invited me to join her and the uber talented JustRite Design Team!!! YAHOOOO!!! That means, today is my FIRST official day as a JustRite Design Team Member!!! Can you hear the shrieks of excitement coming from my rooftop? :)

Before I get to today's card, I would like to tell you that JustRite is currently having a May Sale ~ 20% off on all nested sentiment and nested frame sets. You can read HERE for COMPLETE details. Also, consumers receive free shipping on all U.S. orders over $200.00 and International shipping rates have been lowered significantly.

Welcome to Day 1 of 6 of the JustRite Stampers May previews. Today, we are introducing a beautiful new JustRite Original set called Butterfly Garden.
 I stamped one of the ornate borders from Butterfly Garden using Memento Tuxedo Black ink then using two Standard Circles LG die templates, one on the outer perimeter and one on the inner to cut/emboss the image to create a frame. Using a Copic Y08 Acid Yellow marker, I colored the solid perimeter then added some glitter for a nice shimmer. After creating the lovely frame, I adhered it on top of the sweet sentiment from Butterfly Garden which was then adhered to a scalloped circle.
 Here is a look at the complete Butterfly Garden set:

For COMPLETE details, please be sure to visit the JustRite Inspiration Blog and for some more AMAZING samples of inspiration, please be sure to visit the following DT members:


Thanks so much for looking ~ hope you enjoy what you see! Be Sweet :)
