Spring Collage Tag Folio

 Lately I've been having fun with folios and today's features quite a few products from the Creative Worship Stamps NEW May Release!  

This folio is slightly smaller than an A2 card measuring 3.75" x 5.25". I combined my CWS stamps, dies, and stencils with printable papers from Blue Eclectic Junk Journal Digital Paper Pack  (Pink Monarch Prints) 

The front features a side pocket behind the stamped tag that includes the floral pull out pictured above. 

Inside I stenciled the NEW Heart Doily Stencil  and added two pockets filled with homemade ephemera. 

The colored images were stamped mixed media paper and colored with Arteza Real Brush Pens. I folded over a piece of patterned paper and slightly offeset one of the new Ticket dies to create an attached double ticket.

Praise the Lord

Today I have a quick and easy card that features the NEW stamp of the month from Creative Worship Stamps, So Happy for You. To create the background this card I used distress oxides and the Bold Blooms stencil on watercolor paper. Next I die cut it with the Postage Stamp Cover Plate and inked around the edges with Tumbled Glass distress oxide. I stamped a few postal themed images in  blue ink and the main sentiment in black. Here's a fun way to use a full butterfly stamp to create a half butterfly image.

  

 1. Stamp two of the same side of the butterfly. 2. Color and cut out 3. Glue one half on top the other, moving the back one slightly higher than the front. 4. Ahere the 2nd antennae.
