Supplies:
White cardstock
Light purple cardstock
Big N Juicy Pad by Ranger
Marvey Brush Markers
Blue Tissue Paper
Freezer Paper with plastic coating
Photo Mount Tape

Directions:
The wedding text by Embossing Arts was inked with a "Big n Juicy" pad and stamped onto white cardstock, and this made the background. I adhered this to crumpled blue tissue paper which was ironed onto plastic coated freezer paper, and this in turn was mounted onto light purple cardstock.

The "hearts" by Magenta were stamped with the "Big n Juicy" pad too and then colored in with Marvy Brush Markers, cut out and mounted onto the card with photo mount tape to give it a more dimensional look.

I like to use this text because it gives all the wonderful greetings one expects for a wedding in one stamped image and with a small amount of embellishment makes a neat card.

Supplies:
Scribble Dancer stamp -
Rubba Dub Dub
Follow Your Rainbow stamp - unknown
Glossy black cardstock - folded into a card
(have the back panel wider than the front) + scrap pieces
Metallic blue cardstock - rectangle piece
Clear embossing ink
Encore Ultimate Metallic Gold ink
Clear embossing powder
Pearl Lustre embossing powders - Tanzanite, Rose Quartz, & Sapphire
Detail Metallic Gold embossing powder
UTEE - clear and gold
Krylon gold leafing pen
Egg shells - washed, dried, and crumbled
Double stick tape
Foam tape
Xyron machine (optional)
Stamp positioner (optional)

"Follow Your Rainbow"
Stamp Artist - Pam Fraser
Steps: 1) For this card you use the egg shell technique. On a rectangle of glossy black cardstock, apply adhesive (Xyron machine) to both sides. Remove the protective backing from the black side and coat with broken egg shells. Pat them down firmly.

2) Apply clear embossing ink to the stuck egg shells and sprinkle with the 3 colors of Pearl Lustre embossing powder and emboss. Then apply 3 coats of clear UTEE and sprinkle in some gold UTEE during the second coat.

3) Stamp the Scribble Dancer on black glossy cardstock and emboss with detail gold embossing powder.  Cut out and mount the dancer (foam tape) and the egg shell rectangle (Xyron machine adhesive) on a  rectangle of metallic blue cardstock.

4) Determine where to stamp your words (use stamp positioner for best results) and stamp in gold ink and emboss with clear embossing powder on the card front. NOTE: On the original stamp, the words are not side by side, but rather one on top of the other. By only inking one word at a time, I could place them and space them wherever I wanted. The stamp positioner made this much easier.

5) With the gold Krylon pen, color the extended portion of the back card panel so that you make a gold  stripe along the back that is visible even when card is closed.

6) With double stick tape, mount the blue rectangle (dancer/egg shell) to card front.

NOTE: I got my inspiration for this card from egg shell cards created by Phylis Ditto and I followed her directions for the egg shell technique.

might loose some of the words later on.) Using the white Colorbox ink, stamp the Celebrate stamp on one side, add the other words/phrases and then the Wild Woman stamp. You might want to try this first on scrap paper to get a composition you like. Attach the black card to the white card.

The little girl (Sunny Girl, 1141K from Penny Black, was stamped using Brilliant Graphite Black and embossed. The image was then colored using Crayola Watercolor pencils and a Stampin' Up Blender pen.

"Immortal Kiss"
Stamp Artist - Roz Finnegan
Step - By- Step directions: The Image Transfer Technique was created by Diana Kovacs, owner/artist of The Moon Rose (please give credit--this may be copyrighted as she gives the directions with the purchase of the image transfer palette stamp and I know her stamps are copyrighted and she does not have an angel policy)

1. Cover the entire surface of The Moon Rose's Image Transfer Palette with pigment inks, in a 'direct to paper'
    fashion.
2. Ink some images with dye pads, and stamp on top of pigment inks on the palette.
3. Stamp some images into pigment ink without inking them to leave impressions in the pigment ink
4. Place card stock on top of palette and use hands to rub paper onto palette (you can stamp directly onto paper
    but the palette is large and works better when paper is applied to its surface
5. Stamp additional images onto paper
6. Add more color to images with decorating chalks
7. Trim card stock, layer (with wonder tape) to coordinating papers

"Happiness is a Butterfly"
Stamp Artist - Mary H. Dale

First I made the background paper using the shaving cream technique with StampinUp's Ink refill colors Night of Navy and Rose Red which when swirled together created a pretty marbled effect turning the color into a pretty shade of purple. While that was drying I stamped the Butterfly on white card stock using Colorbox black pigment ink and embossed with Stampendous fine line black embossing powder. I then painted the butterfly with Passion Flower liquid radiant pearls by Angel-Wing enterprises followed with sprinkles of Holographic embossing powder from Ranger Industries and then heat set them.

I attached the finished butterfly with pop dots.
I then inserted a 1/8 inch eyelet and finished it off with the black raffia.
