Please let me know if you have any question! I pray this tutorial was helpful!

Many blessings to you,

Love is Sweet

                                                                  All love is sweet,
                                               given or returned
                                                                  Percy Bysshe Shelley, English Poet

The season of love has arrived, filled with hope and promise. What could be sweeter than joyful sparkly birds and cherries on the vine? I started this project by using these gorgeous lovebirds.

The birds were painted with a bright white acrylic, and the tiny LOVE letters were painted in vivid red.

The tiny wood hearts, available from Unique Laser Designs,  were painted in a pretty pink.

Once the paint was dry, I used sparkling iridescent glitter and covered the birds in white, and the tiny hearts in pink, then set aside to let them dry for a while.

The card base was the easy part! I chose a piece of pretty sold blue card stock, and cut a large rectangle 6.5 inches wide by 9 inches tall. I cut a slightly smaller piece of my favorite romantic patterned paper, and glued the pattern sheet onto the solid card stock.

Once the chipboard lovebirds were dry, I added a few round pop dots on to the back, and adhered them up into the cherry branches. If you take a look in the upper left hand corner, you'll see my kitty Max gave me a hand with the pop dot process.

Once the birds were in place, I then adhered the tiny pink glitter hearts. I added a few curled ribbons in red and white glitter paper, two cherry blossoms in glitter paper, and the bright pink cherries and stem, all in glitter paper.

Then you have love! In a joyful burst of sparkle and glitter, you have love in a card.

Live your life in color!

Hi there crafters!

Rachelle here sharing my latest project using products from

Unique Laser Designs! 

These are the products I used. They are beautiful laser wood cut outs.

Each piece should be painted first!

 To start off I used this simple wood clipboard.

Now here is the finished project:

"Just Create!"

I began by applying layers of selected cardstock and paper punch edges.

Next, applied texture paste to a Prima stencil and let dry. Then I inked the pattern and used spritz and allowed to dry.

Next, I applied the lace to the bottom and top of the clipboard followed by applying the string of pearls.

 Now it's time for the embellishments. I applied Prima resin pieces, flowers, tags, clocks, pearls, and a few metal elements. Notice I applied pearls to the birdcage and bling to the board.

 Here you can see the title.

I place the scrolls together and the lettering in the center.

Here you can see the 3D butterfly. I love how the 2 pieces are simply put together. The ribbon and bows are the finally elements place on the board.

 So here we have it! The finished project.

I hope that you like this project and have been inspired to create a project and don't forget to use these products and more from

Uniques Laser Designs. 

They continually add new products to their inventory for all your crafty needs.

That's it for now!

See ya soon!

Up, Up, & Be Happy!!!!

Hi there crafters!

Rachelle here sharing my latest project using

Unique Laser Designs Cut Outs!

I went with a card.

"Be Happy"

Started off by simply painting each cut out,

then applying gloss varnish to make them really stand out.

 Next, after the cut outs dried I began creating the

card using white cardstock.

I used a edge punch and added a thin piece

of Echo Park The Record2 cardstock. I then added

more die cut clouds and light blue ink for

a sky effect.

 Finally I added the "be happy" stamp and a few

embellishments.

All done!!! 

I hope you have be inspired to create something special

using wood cut outs from

Unique Laser Designs.

You will be glad you did.

Thanks for stopping by today!

See Ya Soon!
