A Million Thank Yous

 Hi everyone, 

Today I have a card to share using a bunch of Tim Holtz / Sizzix products and an Alcohol Lift-ink technique.

First I blended a bunch of Alcohol inks onto a piece of card stock.  I applied my stamp to my Misti tool and used the Alcohol Lift-ink pad and stamped it a bunch of times onto a piece of white card stock until I was happily with it.

As the stamp doesn’t fit the entire background I taped the edges where the stamp finished and applied a stencil to the edge. I used Wilted Violet oxide ink which I blended with Distress Grit paste to cover the stencil doing one edge at a time. Before that was dry I sprinkled Clear Rock Candy glitter over top.

I die cut the sentiment 3 times with black card stock and glued them together. The stamped sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and heat embossed with white embossing powder and foam mounted to my card.

I die cut a leaf from purple shiny card stock and glued directly onto my card.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Easter basket

 Hi everyone,

I hope everyone that celebrates had a very Happy Easter.

Well today I have my last Easter project for this year to share with you.

At the bottom of this post you will see the metal bucket that I started this project with.

I used the Bunny Games and Carrot Bunny die sets and an Alphabet die set for the sentiment.

The sides of the tin were covered with card stock embossed and inked with Distress inks.

The foiled eggs are alcohol ink eggs and the others are from the Dollar store.

The ribbon was originally white which I sprayed with various colours of Distress spray inks.

Well that’s it for my fun Easter project and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Faith, love and hope 🇺🇦

Hi everyone,

With what is happening in the Ukraine 🇺🇦  these last couple of days I thought I would create a tag. We could all use more faith, love and hope in the world today.

I started with a Kraft card tag and applied my stencil. I used a grit paste and mixed it with different colours of  Distress inks adding the different paste colours here and there on my tag. I love the nice texture that the grit paste adds.

I die cut several other pieces using different dies. I added metallic rub ons to some of the pieces and Distress inks to others.

The words were die cut 3 times with black card stock and glued together.

I added alcohol inks to the butterfly and a piece of ribbon was stapled to the top of my tag.

Well that’s it for my tag today and thanks so much for stopping by🙏🏻

Live your dream

Hi everyone,

Well we’ve had 2 days in a row with a lot of snow so this butterfly is sure to brighten up any day.

I used the Engraved 3-D embossing folder from Tim Holtz/Sizzix for my background. I used a brayer to add a few colours of Distress inks over top of the panel. I also sprayed some Distress Resist Spray over top.

The butterfly was die cut twice. Once with white card stock and blended with Distress inks and the other with dark brown card stock.

The sentiment was stamped with black ink on vellum and embossed with clear embossing powder.

The whole panel was added to my card base of brown card stock.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻
