Dreamy May Arts

I don't know about you, but, I love May Arts Ribbon!  There's something for every taste and every budget, and, it's so much fun just looking at all the gorgeous colors.  It's truly a feast for the eyes!  I love it when Stampendous and May Arts hop!!

Today is Stampendous Dreamweaver Thursday and I'm using a fun stencil called Swirly Heart.  It's perfect for creating a Valentine for that someone special.

Here's a close-up of the ribbon that really shows the sparkly goodness:

Here's what I used for this card:

Stampendous® Dreamweaver Stencil LJ 928 Swirly Heart

Stampendous® Dreamweaver White Embossing Paste

Stampendous® Dreamweaver LM 2010 Paste Spreader

Stampendous® Dreamweaver Metallic FX Pink Blaze

May Arts Ribbons®

Richeson's Acrylics in Scarlet, Crimson Red, Titanium White and Mars Black

Pink Cardstock by Bazzill Basics Paper®

Echo Park® "Yours Truly" Patterned Paper

Bo Bunny® "Garden Girl - Wild Flowers" Patterned Paper

Me & My Big Ideas® Pink Multi Pack Rhinestones

Studio 18® Rhinestones Strass Green

Zip Dry™ Paper Glue by Beacon Adhesive

Q-Tips™

Here's what I did to create this card:

Trim papers to desired size.

Tape down paper and stencil in preparation of pasting.

Mix white paste with paints until you get the desired color, I went with a nice plum.

Spread on paste and once applied, remove stencil (put in water right away), and set aside to dry.

Once partially dry, apply Metallic FX with a Q-Tip and then heat with a heat tool to complete drying.

Using the same Q-Tip, smudge some of the Metallic FX in various spots around the paper.

Adhere patterned papers.

Create bow with 2 ribbons and adhere to card.

Adhere patterned papers to card base.

Complete card by adding rhinestones as shown.
