If I'm not scrapbooking I'm thinking about scrapbooking!
I created this friendship card to enter into the Pinkfresh Studio August “sparkle and shine” challenge.
I stamped, stenciled, and die cut the main images using the Pinkfresh Studio “Just a hello floral” set and Distress Inks in the challenge colors. For the sparkle and shine elements, I heat embossed the sentiment in gold and added gold sequins.
I really enjoyed making this Thanksgiving card, which I’m entering in the Pinkfresh Studio October fall leaves challenge.
I stenciled and die cut the leaves with Pinkfresh Studio’s “Fall Foliage” set and Distress Oxide inks, stamped and fussy cut the pinecone from Jen Hadfield’s “Warm & Cozy” stamp set, stamped and ink blended the woodgrain background from Honey Bee Stamps and die cut it with a Pinkfresh Studio mini slimline die, and stamped and embossed the sentiment with a Making Memories set from 2009!
I’m entering this card in MFT color challenge 172.
I stamped the paisley images, colored them with Tombow markers, and fussy cut them. For the background I created layers of color and pattern by 1) ink smooshing with the colors in Distress Oxide inks, 2) stamping an additional image from the paisley collection in gray, and 3) adding the aqua polka dots through a stencil.
I’m entering this card in MFT color challenge 169 and will send it to a friend.
I blended salvaged patina Distress Oxide Ink with a stencil to create the cloud background. The subtle water image is a layer of peacock feathers Distress Oxide Ink topped with a Hero Arts waves stamp using more salvaged patina ink. The stamped images are from My Favorite Things, and I colored them with Copic markers.
I created this card for my hubby for our 23rd anniversary. I chose the owl theme because this summer we had the joy of being visited repeatedly by a family of six owls in our back yard. They were gorgeous and just so fun to watch and photograph.
I blended Distress Inks in five colors (aged mahogany, spiced marmalade, fossilized amber, peeled paint, and speckled egg) on the background and then laid down a second layer of each ink through the Hero Arts rain dance pattern stencil to create the look of leaves. The owls are from My Favorite Things, and I stamped and colored them with Copic markers. I’m entering this in the clean & simple challenge at A Blog Named Hero.
