VW Party VAN!

Here is another ADORABLE stamp from Penny Black!! My guys love VW's so I couldn't resist. This was a quick easy card... I wanted to keep the colored stamped image as the focal point so it was hard to not add any bling!

I made this card... and Eden saw me coloring and wanted to color one too!!  So I made the card but she colored the VW on the picture below.  Pretty awesome for a six year old!!!!!!

Have a great weekend. :-))))))))))

New layouts! and a sweet Canvas

Last weekend I got a few hours with a friend to play, create and have some scrap therapy! It was great. :))

This layout has the sparkle going on! I used 3d stamp paint on the back ground with a stencil made with my new chicken wire die. I cut the flower background paper and painted it with 'Glam' for more sparkle. I added stickles to the flowers... plus the letters. Yeah i love glitter!

I dripped paint from the top of the layout to create a winder scene. I cut a sparkly organza ribbon I had and layered it over the slow globe to enhance it. I added mica flakes to the top of the layout to add to the snowflakes and then also to the title.

I made this canvas for a friends birthday. The quote is one of my absolute favorites from nelson Mandela...I love it. I used paint, 3D stamp paint, lots of flowers and glam. 

Yes I do take special orders on this! They probably run about $35-50 depending on the size and embellishments used. :))))

Happy Creating!!

Stamps ohhhh wonderful Stamps!

I just love love love this Penny Black stamp called 'Wistful.' It is soooo pretty!! Take a look at the four different ways I used this stamp!

 I stamped the Wistful image with Versa Watermark ink onto vanilla paper and heat embossed it with clear powder. Then I dipped the paper into Tim Holtz distress paints... yellow, burnished copper and orange. Once the paper was dry I rubbed some Walnut Stain ink onto the paper to help draw out the image. I then cut out the oval and put it onto the scroll oval spellbinder die. Beautiful!

 I stamped the image onto glossy paper and then heat embossed the image with black powder. I then dropped three colors of alcohol inks onto the base glossy paper plus some blending solution to help the alcohol inks move around a bit. I really like the way this turned out.

Using a clean stamp, I loaded three tones of pink ink onto my brayer. I then rolled the ink DIRECTLY onto the STAMP and then stamped it onto plain white paper. I just LOVE the variegated look. Sooo pretty!

This one I stamped onto plain white paper with Watermark ink and then added the black powder and heat embossed. I then used a piece of foam to gently rub two colors of ink onto the background to create a very soft subtle pink background. Love this card!

Happy Creating!
