Dream Big
Hi readers! TGIF & happy STAMPtember® 26th! We hope you’ve been enjoying this month as much as we have! So much sharing, creating, & FUN! It isn’t over yet! I’m so pleased to have Dawn Woleslagle of WPlus9 as a guest today!
In the spirit of sharing a bit more about the company we’re featuring, here’s a bit more about WPlus9:
Founded by Dawn Woleslagle in February 2010, we are committed to bringing you the highest quality in paper crafting supplies.
There never seems to be enough time in the day, and I know how important and treasured those few moments we can grab to enjoy “our” time can be. You’ll find that our images are bold and attention grabbing. They have no problem taking center stage, making completing that project a snap. Whether you’re just starting out in card making or a “seasoned scrapper”, you’ll find that our stamps and products are a great addition to your collection.
I wanted to keep the card soft and monochromatic to mimic the symbolism of a dreamcatcher.
Die cut the dream catcher and butterfly from white cardstock. Cover all pieces with the Wink of Stella and allow to dry.
Prep the Dove Grey panel – Cut to 3 ¾” x 5 ¼”. Mix a little Distress Paint and water together on a craft mat or acrylic block. Use a small paint brush to apply splatters by holding the brush above the cardstock and tapping it lightly with your finger. Allow to dry. Add a few stamped “twinkles” using Little Bits in White ink.
Create sentiment – Rub vellum with powder tool to remove static. Ink top half of sentiment with Versamark, stamp and heat emboss. Clean stamp. Rub vellum with powder tool again to remove static. Ink bottom half of sentiment with Versamark, stamp and heat emboss. Hand cut into banner shape. Stitch to grey panel using sewing machine.
Assemble dreamcatcher using Multi Medium Matte. Adhere to panel. Adhere butterfly to dreamcatcher and add rhinestones.
Adhere panel to card base.

So lovely and elegant!
I was surprised when I read in the instructions to splatter distress paint, I had to take a closer look at the card… The effect is so subtle, I wouldn’t have guessed that was the technique used! It blends really nicely with the twinkles, and really doesn’t convey the concept of the word ‘splatter’ at all. More like ‘twinkling droplets’! Nicely done, very creative!
BIG fan of Dawn’s…I kinda stalk her blog. This peaceful, elegant card is why. So lovely.
The card from Dawn is so soft and peaceful…goes perfectly with the sentiment. Thanks for sharing a little bit about each company with your readers!
