Pink Swirl Rhinestones Gel Plate background

I made this background with some paint on bubble wrap on a Gelli Plate. The rightstones are from what to scrap. The die cut is unknown at the moment. Thanks for looking. HAGD!

Merry Gold Christmas card

The gold paper, white glitter paper, and red die cut are by Sizzix. The white die cut is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The Want2Scrap rhinestone shape fits a Spellbinders label but I used it to go around the circle sentiment which was cut apart from a paper pad.

Thanks for looking.

Gray busy fancy birthday card

There’s way too much going on with this card. The background stamp and ink are by Hero Arts. The die cuts are by Spellbinders. The bottom layer is a recycled wallpaper sample and the rhinestones are by Want2Scrap. Then the patterned paper is grrrr idk. I know what the pattern on the other side looks like. The flourish is a rub-on and the sentiment is a sticker. Thanks for looking.

Happy little stampers-birthday 

Fin-tastic Birthday Card

My card for today was published in the Just Cards magazine in 2016. The mermaid stamp is by Inkadinkado. I heat embossed her in white and colored her in with distress inks and a water pen. Then I die cut her out with a Spellbinders die and placed a Want2Scrap rhinestone frame around her. The patterned paper is by Little Yellow Bicycle- I think. Purple cardstock is by Die Cuts with a View and the sentiment by Lawn Fawn.

Thanks for looking.

God Bless You dry embossing and Chalk card

The embossing folder is by Cuttlebug
green chalk mixed with white paint
Sentiment stamp by Stampin Up
Pearls by Want 2 Scrap
Patterned papers are by Recollections and Making Memories

Happy Wedding Day Pink heat embossing and Cake embellishment Card

I have another wedding card to share. The background stamp is by Hero Arts. I stamped it with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed it with pink embossing powder by Stampendous. I had a slight issue when stamping the background of this card- I didn't ink the stamp well and so when I pressed it onto the paper there were open spaces inside the pattern. So to fix this I would heat an area of the cardstock and get it really hot with the embossing gun. Then I would sprinkle more powder onto that area and heat set it again. After a few times doing this the spaces filled in nicely. It gives a fabulous texture look because the image is raised up higher then usually plus the image/background is filled in like it should be.

 The stamped background is matted onto silver cardstock and in the center of my stamped background I have a Spellbinders die cut in white Recollections paper. The gems around the edge are by Want 2 Scrap and the cake sticker in the center is by Jolee's. Moving down on the card we come to the ribbon in the center is by Offray with pearls by Forever In Time and just below the ribbon I layered two lacy border punches by Martha Stewart in silver cardstock. The sentiment is computer generated and matted onto the same silver cardstock.

Thanks for looking.

Cracked Egg Iris Folding Easter Card

I have a new card featuring an iris folding stamp of a cracked egg and a fun font Easter sentiment both by Stamp N Plus. I used a yellow patterned paper for the iris folding, manufacturer is unknown. The yellow and white cardstock are by Recollections and the square card base is by Studio 112. At the bottom of the card is a row of embossed bunnies. I placed a pearl at the neck of each bunny and then scattered pearls around the card. The sentiment has been stamped with black Hero Arts ink.

The sentiment stamp sheet is pictured below and if you are interested in purchasing one please call Luann at 715-271-1873.

Blessings of the season

My card today features a bleach stamping technique. I tried it on a few different cardstocks but found my best image from Bazzill cardstock. The stamp is by Jest Rite and I die cut it out using a Spellbinders die. Then the pink middle oval was cut out using my Cricut and the Storybook cartridge. Then the final burgundy oval is the Spellbinders next size up scallop oval. I don't have the other size of scallop ovals so I improvised. The patterned paper is an old one from a DCWV Christmas Stack. The felt ribbon is by Oriental Trading Co, pearls by Want 2 Scrap and the die cuts are from a friend of mine. I saw her use them on her card and she was nice enough to punch some out and send them to me. I tell you this hobby generates some of the nicest people.

Happy

Tuesday is always a good day for me. It makes me happy like my card today. I use some My Mind's Eye diagonal striped patterned paper as my base. I stamped THIS Deep Red Stamp with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder by Stamp N Plus. Then I used Ranger distress ink-I believe the peacck color- and inked the edges with a ink blender also by Ranger. I wiped off the extra ink that was on the embossed area and went on to assemble my card. 

The grey patterned paper is by The Paper Studio and the sparkle cardstock by DCWV. The happy sticker is by Ki Memories, rhinestones by Want2Scrap and sequins by Craft Medley

Birthday wishes with SNP

I have a Stamp N Plus birthday card to share today. The girl stamp can by found HERE. I heat embossed her with silver embossing powder and then colored her in with Stardust powdered chalk and paint also from Stamp N Plus. After hand cutting her out I adhered her to a die cut that I used Ranger distress ink on. The die cut is by Spellbinders. 

I used Prima patterned paper for the background. The blue paper is watercolor paper by Royal Brush Mfg. I had leftover Sky blue powdered chalk mixed with paint for a different project and decided not to waste it. Using a wide paint brush....ugh I can't type for crap today-annoying.....I painted the mixture onto the paper and let it dry. The rhinestones are by Want 2 Scrap and Basic Grey. The border stick between the watercolor paper and patterned paper is by Mrs Grossman's and the sentiment sticker is by K and Co.

Hopefully this isn't a jumbled mess of a post. I really just want to get back to creating. I have a nice day to myself and don't want to waste anytime.

It is matted with Real Red cardstock from Stampin Up.

For the card base is red and it is by DMD Inc.It's a 5x7 card , which is a new size for me, but I like it. The black cardstock is by Recollections and the patterned papers are by Basic Grey and Anna Griffins.

Happy Birthday Kenny K style

GDT at My Stamp Box week 2

Welcome to week 2 for my guest designer spot at My Stamp Box. If you missed last weeks awesome projects head HERE to check them out.

This is the stamp I used for my projects. It's so pretty and fun to stamp with.

I created this layout for my calendar. Around November I make multiple calendars for family but for my own calendar in my studio and at work I create them monthly. The flowers add a nice accent to my already girly page. I used the smallest flowers in the smallest circle punches in a dark purple. 

For this flower below I heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder on watercolor paper. I covered the area with distress stain and then heat set it to dry. Using my finger I applied iridescent powder to the center area and then cut the flower in the shaped of a circle.The beads for the center of the flower adds another layer of dimension. Just squeeze Glossy Accents in the center and add the beads. You may have to do it a couple of times depending on how far you want this to stick off your project.   

For my last project I thought to myself, "I didn't use the stems in the stamp set". Since summer is in full swing the stems reminded me of waves and "hey, those leaves look like fish". 

I stamped the waves out on some patterned paper in different water color inks and then inked the edges near the bottom because water is darker as it gets further away from the sun. I hand cut the top with the flow of the stamps. 

The "fish"/leaves were stamped on white cardstock with 3 different colors of craft ink. I then heat embossed them with clear embossing powder. The orange fish is the back side of the smaller leaf. After stamping and embossing the leaves, I cut them out, gave them an eye and a tail and adhered them to the sea with foam adhesive. 

Just showing you another way to use your stamps. Always look for something different in your stamps then they were intended for. 

Thanks so much to My Stamp Box for letting me play. I have more projects to share using this stamp set like this one HERE and more to look for in the near future. 

Thanks for stopping by.

The sentiment stamp is also by Stamp N Plus but isn't on the website. you can order the sheet of sentiments by calling Luann at 715-271-1873.

Warm Thoughts

Hi to all. Sorry about no post on Tuesday. I'm having a hard time adjusting to the work week with Monday off. I'm totally not complaining about having Monday off :) 

For today's card I started with a hot air balloon stamp by Unity Stamp Co. I inked the stamp in two colors by Stampin Up. Then I die cut the image using a Spellbinders die and inked the edges with Ranger distress ink. The background embossing folder is by Darice and I also inked it with the same color as the die cut. The sentiment stamp is by Hero Arts with cardstock by Bazzill and Recollections. The rhinestones are by Want 2 Scrap.
