Guest Designing!

Hooray! 

I'm with Authentique today!

Hopefully all of you know who Authentique is... but 

on the odd chance you don't... I can't wait to 

share with you all their awesomeness! 

I'm so excited to get to share with you a little 

bit of this AWESOME paper-sticker-embellishment 

company! 

Their paper is so thick and luxurious... the textures

are amazing - almost like fabric! AND, I literally 

can't say enough about their stickers... here's why... 

they're STICKY! I mean, stick stick sticky! 

I LOVE that. It's hard to find sticky stickers these days... 

I think what the bottom line is with Authentique - They have 

*quality* products. In an industry full of products that might

as well be at the dollar store (although, there is nothing 

wrong with dollar store finds!! - But, when I pay good money 

for product... I expect it to be good - ya know?!) it's nice 

to get really good quality products from a company. - 

Owning my own stamp shop 

- Sweet Stamp Shop - 

I can appreciate that it's tempting to take 

short cuts to save. But, like my stamp shop, Authentique

take pride in producing quality stuff and it shows! 

Ok- enough gushing! 

Let's get to the inspiration! 

I worked with Carefree

My pack came full with 8+ sheets of double 

sided paper (ahhh-mazing!) the sticker sheet 

with all the tags and fun sayings. AND the alpha 

sticker sheet.... basically, I got the whole line... 

and I used every. little. piece. (well, maybe not 

*every* piece ... but, I tried it all!! - and I still have 

a ton left over! YIPPEE!) 

Ok, so here are my creations... 

I used 'Core of It' stamp set 

I love *simple* I used a sentiment from 

'Old Fashioned Afternoon' in this card... worked 

perfect!

I pleated the paper under the label... it turned 

out so pretty! I also used a rose from 

'Sweet Victoria' - Love the different size 

roses in that set... I use them all.the. time. 

'Sweet Victoria' 

I made a little hanging piece for my 

fridge... love it! 

I used the kite from the 'Old Fashioned Afternoon' set. 

I used twine and this really cool white - thick bakers

twine from May Arts... LOVE it! 

And lastly I used the bike from that same 

set to make this cute little card. 

A stroll in the park... -Carefree- was just so much 

fun to work with! 

Big Hugs and Thanks for letting me do some 

designing Authentique! It was so nice to sit 

down and make something for such an awesome 

company! 

Take a moment to go over to Authentique and say 

hi! 

-Happy Stamping and Crafting!-
