Floral images and a great sentiment are my weakness! I love combining different stamp sets, to make my vision come to life. It also serves as a great opportunity to try different mediums and techniques. For this simple card cover, I used the Chin Up Buttercup stamp set from Ink Road Stamps paired with one of the floral images from the Poppy stamp set from Stampendous. I wanted to create levels of color, using my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and my distress inks. I stamped my floral image over Tim Holtz distress watercolor paper, and colored it using various shades of pink, yellow and green distress inks. Once it was dry, I was able to fussy cut it and proceeded to create my background. I created the effect of broad brush stories by using the broad tip aide of my Spectrum markers, going from lightest pink, to darkest pink. At the bottom right corner, I stamped my chin up Buttercup sentiment and added a few details using the mini flowers included in that set. I adhered my large ...

Hello everyone! I've been a little M.I.A , but I'm back with this card I created, using the Floral Mandala background stamp from Hero Arts. Also wanted to use this opportunity to showcase some of the colors included in the Galaxy Color Burst set, and how to use these watercolor powders. I began my card by applying some anti-static powder over my Canson Mixed Media paper and then stamped the  Floral Mandala image  with some Versa Mark Clear Ink. I used my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to make sure I have a crisp, full image. For my embossed detail, I used Lawn Fawn Rose Gold Embossing powder, and melted it down with my brand new Wagner heat gun. This tool is amazing and worth every penny. It's so quick to melt my embossing powder, and that means less warping of my paper. Once everything was cool, I was able to use three of the Color Busrt colors in the set; Solar Flare, Jupiter and Terrestrial. By gently tapping the bottom of my bottles (once they're upside down), I get e...

Hello everyone and welcome to another Card Making #tutorial, this time using the Count The Stars Stamp and Die set from Spellbinders with the Bork stamp set from Ink Road Stamps! I wanted to create a fun birthday card that could be used for any age, and i thought uaing this stamp set from Ink Road Stamps, was the perfect touch. It has 6 adorable doggy images, and I chose the fluffiest one in the bunch. I stamped my image on some Park Lane 110# smooth white cardstock, uaing my Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I added a bit of color by using my number LG2 and LG4 gray tone Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. Once my image was fussy cut, I was ready to create my background. I had seen a stencil from My Favorite Things, that has several circles in different sizes and it was used to create this fun background effect with some Distress Inks. Unfortunately, the stencil was sold out. But, I did have some stencil sheets, so I whipped out my circle dies and created my very own stencil! I used my distres...
