Happy Friday everyone, Holly here today. I’m running a little late this week, I can’t believe September is almost over!!! Before I get to my card today I wanted to remind you there’s still time to join our Chameleon Pen giveaway...You can find all the details in this post here. We also have a Fall Video Challenge going on and our Bi-Weekly Challenge to check out!!

My project today features the WPlus9 Summer Citrus and Basic Labels Set and coordinating dies.

I started with a piece of Bristol Smooth paper and then I stamped the solid image of the Pineapple and stems using Distress inks. I used Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed for Pineapple and Peeled Paint for the stems. I stamped each image with the Distress ink and then I spritzed it before stamping down onto the paper. Once I had the images stamped where I wanted them I spritzed the paper making the ink move around a little and I heat set it with a heat tool. I added a few splatters of the same colors of Distress Ink and heat set it on more time. Then I stamped the outline images over the Solid images off centered just a little with VersaFine Jet Black Ink.

Then I added a few splatters of Black Soot Distress Paint to the background and heat set everything one last time. I trimmed a 1/16 of an inch of each side and adhered the panel to a top folding Black Licorice card base.  I stamped the label and sentiment from the Basic Label set in VersaFine Black ink and used the coordinating die cut to trim it out. I adhered the label over the pineapples with some foam tape. I added some Sequins from the Neat & Tangled Peacock Feathers Mix and Pretty Pink Posh Black 4mm.

Happy Tuesday everyone… Holly here today!! I hope you all had a great weekend and didn’t melt too much from the heat. Today I have a Fun cacti card and video using the new Cultivated Cacti set from Newton’s Nook. Their June release is now available in the store. It’s full of Cacti, Cowboys, and more.

I started with a piece of Distress Watercolor paper and then I added some Mustard Seed Distress Ink. Once the panel was dry I die cut it using the MFT Blueprints #27. Then I adhered the panel to a White A2 size card base.

Then I stamped the cacti and the pots using the Mini Misti , Neenah Solar White cardstock, and Lawn Fawn inks in the following colors: Celery Stick, Freshly Cut Grass, Jalapeno, Noble Fir, Peacock, Fish Tank, Blue Jay, Ballet Slippers and Plastic Flamingo. You can see how I created the multi-ink tone on the stamps in the video below.

Once they were dry I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and I adhered them to the card front with some Tape Runner and Foam Tape. I stamped the sentiment using some Blue Jay ink from Lawn Fawn on a piece of Neenah Solar White that I die cut with the Stitched Sentiment Strips Die-namics from MFT. I added a few Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh for a little Bling.

You can find more details on how I created this card in the video below…

Happy Tuesday everyone… I hope you all had a great Holiday weekend. Today I have a new video featuring a card using the Adorable Itty Bitty Welcoming Committee set from Neat & Tangled.

I started with a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock and traced the inside of a Stitched Oval Scalloped Edge Frame die from MFT with a pencil. Then I added some Salty Ocean and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks with a Paintbrush and some water. Once the area with dry I die cut the panel with the Stitched Rectangle die from the MFT Blueprints 15 die-namics set. Then I adhered the panel to a Turquoise A2 size card base. I added the Scalloped Oval frame which I die cut from some Neenah Solar White card stock. Then I stamped all the images from the Itty Bitty Welcoming Committee set onto a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock using VersaFine Black Ink. I colored the images in with Distress Markers and a paint brush. I used the following Markers:

Tumbled Glass, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Carved Pumpkin, Antiqued Linen, Tattered Rose, Spun Sugar, Pumice Stone and Wild Honey.

Once the images were dry I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and I adhered them to the card front. I stamped the sentiment using the Mini Misti and VersaFine Black Ink. I added some Gold and Clear Wink of Stella to parts of the images. This is a Fun set perfect for all Occasions.

Hi Crafters! I can’t believe mom’s and dad’s days are right around the corner! I have a pretty Father’s Day card today featuring Avery Elle‘s new Shine Bright stamp & die set, and their new Scalloped Pierced Rectangles STAX die set.

The images are stamped using Memento’s Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press IT Blending Card Paper, and colored with Copic markers (I use Sketch markers).

The red & white diagonally striped paper is from Doodlebug’s 6×6 Anchors Away paper pad.

The background is created using Distress Inks applied with onto Tim Holtz Watercolor Cardstock with Mini Ink Blending Tools.

For the beam of light, I  first stamped it with Altenew’s Warm Sunshine Ink from their Summer Afternoon ink pad set, available in full size ink pads or mini’s. Then I stamped it again with VersaMark Ink, and heat embossed it using Wow! Clear Gloss Embossing Powder. 

The sentiment was stamped using VersaMark, and heat embossed with Wow! White Pearl Embossing Powder. I added Zig Clear Wink of Stella to the flying birds and the red parts of the lighthouse. The final touch were the Pretty Pink Posh Sequins in Cobalt 4mm & 6mm.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope this has given you some inspiration!
