50 and fabulous!

Hey everyone!

I am playing The Paper Players 'All About Numbers' challenge  today! 

I made this card for someone who loves Tiffany's, hence the colours and the box.

To get the colours right, I heat embossed a piece of card stock multiple times with aqua embossing powder. I then die cut and created the box. 

The numbers and sentiments are also heat embossed as are the stripes! This card was truly an exercise in heat embossing!!!

I created a pocket on the inside to add some cash as a gift.

 

supplies used are from...

Simon Says Stamp, Winnie and Walter and American Craft Brand Zing embossing powder.

Ribbon and pearls are from my stash.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Using one stamp two ways

Hi all!

Today I made two cards…using the same stamp.

For the first card I prepared a water colour background and then stamped the flowers and the sentiment. really simple…really fast!

For the second card I stamped the flowers on white card stock, water coloured them and then cut out the flower partially so that it could hang off the edge.

I then created a panel using Tim Holtz's woodgrain layering stencil and white ink. I just love the look of that panel.I added a sentiment and put the card together using 3D  foam tape.

The sentiments are from Fiskars and the flower stamp is from Stampendous.

Inks are from Versafine and Brilliance.

Have a good night!

Molded clay rose

Hello!! 

For my official Craft Adda blog post today, I have made a card using a gorgeous molded clay rose made by Khyati.

To empahsise its beauty, I used a panel stamped with Hero Arts Wood Block stamp for the background, some smooth whie satin ribbon and some pearls and gemstones.

I finished by using Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet distress ink around the edges of the panel.

I think the colours are quite striking, don't you?

Thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy!

Mix it Up Monday Challenge.

Here is my card for Stamptv's 'Mix it Up Monday' Challenge, using Red, Blue and White for any ocassion except patriotic.

The stamps are 'Poppy bottles' from Stampendous, and 'Hello Bubble' from Hero Arts.
Inks are Tuxedo black,Danube blue and Ladybug from Memento and Onyx Black from Versafine.

I coloured the poppy and the bottle with Camel Artists Water Colour Cakes and a 'Aqua Brush' from Stampin'Up. I then cut out the poppy and the bottle and stuck it on with double sided foam tape to give it a 3-D effect.
Self-adhesive pearls are from a local craft store.
I cut the bottom edge of the card with Fiskars craft edge scissors to add some interest.

I love the way it turned out!!
What do you think?
