Day 1 of Watercolours for card makers

Day 1 of Online card classes -watercolours for card makers was awesome! I had so much fun!

Here is what I made using the various techniques I learned today!

1. Stencilled water colour background...

to create this background I used a stencil from Faber Castell and my Cotman water colours. the butterfly is die cut out of red paper and silver and white printed vellum.the sentiment stamp is from Studio G.

This is also my official Craft adda post for today.

2. Creating a background by stamping with distress inks on an acrylic block. 

To finish the card I used this glittery peace sign brad from Recollections and a die cut sentiment from Cuttlebug, which I adhered using my xyron sticker maker.

3. Heat embossed Background and resist watercolouring.

The heat embossed background is from Hero Arts, the sentiment and speech bubble are from the Simon Says Stamp and Memory box Speech bubble and For The Record Stamp and die set. The feather and adhesive rhinestones are from my stash.

I can't wait to get started on the day 2 cards!

Be back tomorrow!

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a good night!

Again, a die that I have not  used before...but so much fun!

The die is from Cottage Cutz and the sentiments are from Hero Arts and Simon Says Stamp Talk Bubbles stamp and die set.

I think I'll go and make another card! ;-)

Speech bubbles

Happy Sunday everyone!
I made these cards using the speech bubble die cuts from the Simon Says Stamp 'Talk bubbles' stamp and die set.
For the sentiment I used labels made with the 'Letro' label maker...something I have been wanting to play with for a while now!

I love the way the cards turned out...don't you?

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Using Negative die cuts

Hello Everyone!
It's great to be back online...my laptop died so now I have a new iMac  so I am back in the blogogsphere!Yay!!!

Today I have three cards which I made using negative die cuts...
An idea I have been wanting to play with for a while.
I will post cards with the positives tomorrow.

As you can see, I have added sentiments in the negative space of the die cut and made these fun cards.

The dies are from the Simon Says stamp and Memory Box 'Talk Bubbles' stamp and die set.

The sentiments are from  Hero Arts and the inks are from Memento and Versafine.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your evening!
