SSS Big Picture Book Raccoon Watermelon Card

I hope y'all had a great weekend! Today was a Monday of a Monday with one thing after another going wrong it seems - BUT I still managed to finally get the video edited and uploaded for this card!

I didn't get a chance to upload this in time for last week's Color Throwdown challenge (which is part of the problem I'm having lately - Yahoo has been messed up, not working for WEEKS now and I can barely access anything. Anywho that's a whole other story...), but I loved the colors and inspiration!

See what I mean? Anyway you can see what the rest of the team made with these colors HERE <-----click! and there will be a new challenge up Wednesday morning to play along with!

So I created my own quick and easy background using 2 Distress Oxide inks and a couple of paintbrushes and my t-square ruler. I added splatter (of course) and that was it. To create my character I used several of the Big Picture Book wafer dies from Simon Says Stamp: Big Picture Book Raccoon, Big Picture Book Medium Body and Big Picture Book Tails. I die cut them all from different card stocks (all the ones I used are listed and linked in the supplies below!) and put them all together.

I used the Watermelon wafer die, and the heart shaped "seeds" were die cut from Black Mirror glossy card stock.

I finished off the inside of the card with a sentiment from the CZ Design Buttercup stamp set that I stamped with the Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink. I had all the little hearts left over from die cutting the watermelon so I added a few to the inside and that was it!

Rainbow Makeup Themed Cards | SSS Wake Up and Makeup Take 2

Hey everyone!! I hope y'all had a fabulous weekend! I really wanted to create some more with Simon Says Stamp's Wake Up and Makeup stamp set - if you missed my previous post using it you can find it HERE <-----click!

This time I went full on rainbow with the Wake Up and Makeup set and it was SO fun!!

I gold heat embossed all the images from the set onto Ranger watercolor card stock and then watercolored them using the Prima Classics watercolors. After they were dry I die cut them with the coordinating wafer dies and adhered them all with foam tape to the card bases.

I kept the insides of the cards simple and gold heat embossed more sentiments onto black card stock before adhering them and that was it!

SSS Delicate Flowers Take 3 | Gold Watercolor on Black

Happy Saturday! I hope y'all are having a great weekend so far!

After I posted yesterday's cards using Simon Says Stamp's Delicate Flowers stamp set (click HERE if you missed that post!) I didn't want to stop using it. Since I hadn't done my Gold/Black/White treatment on that set yet I wanted to try it out and this was the end result:

A completely different look from yesterday's cards, and again totally different from THIS post I'd made using this stamp set!

I gold heat embossed one of the florals and one of the leaves from the Delicate Flowers set onto black card stock and vellum. For the florals I watercolored them with the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors set.

I used Dylusions White Linen craft paint on the card base, and gold splatter of course. For the sentiment I used my old fave: Painted Friend. LOVE. THAT. DIE.

I finished off the insides of the cards by gold heat embossing the sentiment and then stamping the flower and leaves with Delicata Golden Glitz ink and that was it!

Spellbinders Jane Davenport NEW Artomology + Making Faces Blog Hop

OK on to this week's Color Throwdown Challenge:

You can see what the rest of the team created with these colors HERE <-----click! and there's also time to play along if you'd like!!

Here's what I made:

I used Simon Says Stamp's Delicate Flowers stamp and die set - I fell in LOVE with this set when it was part of one of the monthly kits and ordered the coordinating die set as soon as SSS released it! I white heat embossed the flowers onto Distress watercolor card stock and then watercolored them with a combo of Distress ink and Distress Oxide Inks.

I used Simon's Mesh stencil on the grey card stock with Tonic's Pure Platinum Embellishment Mousse. I LOVE the subtle sheen it gives - I definitely need to use my Embellishment Mousse's more - I have several colors of them sitting here...

I finished off the insides of the cards by stamping the images with the same Oxide inks, then stamped the sentiment with a Distress Archival ink and that was it!

Butterfly Thank You Card | SSS Comfort & Prayers Stamp Set

Hey everyone!! I was inspired by last week's Color Throwdown Challenge with today's card:

I hadn't had a chance to ink up Simon Says Stamp's new Comfort & Prayers stamp set - I LOVE the butterflies in the set so I white heat embossed the large one onto Distress watercolor card stock. I then used my Prima Pastel Dreams watercolor palette to color it and the butterfly on the inside in before fussy cutting both of them.

I stamped the Outline Butterflies background onto Surf Blue card stock with Simon's Clear embossing ink, and added a sentiment using the Thank You Script die set.

I finished off the inside of the card with a sentiment from the Tiny Words Encouragement stamp set. I added the second butterfly from the Comfort & Prayers set and a few more butterflies I'd die cut using the Flickering Butterflies set and that was it!

5 Cards 1 Kit | Simon Says Stamp Bee Yourself Card Kit

Hello everyone!! If you missed my unboxing video of Simon's July Card Kit you can check that out here:

Simon Says Stamp July 2019 Card Kit Unboxing! | Bee Yourself Card Kit

This is SUCH a fun kit <-------click!

So I ended up making 5 cards when I sat down with it:

I clear heat embossed the bee images from the Bee Yourself stamp set onto Bristol Smooth card stock after stamping them with Nocturne ink. To color them in I used Arteza's Real Brush pens and a water brush.

I used the Bee's Knees patterned papers that came in the kit for each of the cards, as well as Simon's Wonky Rectangles wafer dies for all but the square card. 

I finished off the insides of all the cards with more images from the Bee Yourself set. The honeycomb images were stamped with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink and the bees, sentiments, trails etc were stamped with the Nocturne ink and that was it!

Gold Wildflowers Silhouette Cards | Simon Says Stamp

If you didn't get here from Jessica's blog you can start at the beginning of the hop HERE. There's also GIVEAWAY info at the end of my post!!

I fell in LOVE with the new Strawberry Shortcake sequin mix in this release. The colors and shimmer are so pretty - so I was inspired to create a card based on them. I used the new Round and Round Background stamp and white heat embossed it onto Distress Watercolor card stock.

I used Distress Inks and Distress Ink Refills to watercolor in the background - letting the colors layer on top of each other. I then added a large die cut heart that was cut from vellum and adhered after running it through my little Xyron machine. The die cut sentiment is from the new Thanks Frame wafer dies, and the stamped sentiment is from the Say It All Friend stamp set.

I used another sentiment from the Say It All Friend stamp set on the inside of the card, stamping it with Picked Raspberry Archival ink and that was it!

I also used the French Wine Aqua Flow pen to paint the background which I splattered with water once dry. The sentiments are from the Peony Notes stamp set and I stamped them with Peeled Paint Archival ink and then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I finished off the inside of the card with the second smaller peony image that I'd heat embossed and watercolored. I die cut it, adhered it with Craft Tacky glue and then stamped another sentiment from the set and that was it!

Dye Ink Easy Watercolor | Simon Says Stamp Daisy Bouquet

Hey everyone!! OK so I wanted to use some more things from my most recent haul video:

Mega Haul & Giveaway!

I am SLOWLY pulling things from that haul (well it was multiple orders over the last several months - but all piled up in a basket till I filmed it all LOL) and using them. I used a couple things on yesterday's card here:

Quick & Easy Prismacolor Pencil Coloring & SPLATTER Card | SSS June Card Kit 

and now some more inks and embellishments on today's card:

I have been itching to use Simon's new Daisy Bouquet stamp set from their latest Celebrate You release. 

I white heat embossed the bouquet onto Bee water-colour paper, and then used three Wendy Vecchi Make Art Dye inks for all my watercoloring. Of course I added a bunch of splatter using my Gansai Tambi Starry Colors watercolors.

I stamped the bouquet onto a coordinating envelope, and added splatter to that too of course. As a final embellishment I added a bunch of the Nuvo Water Droplets gemstones to the card front - LOVE how those look!!

I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the bouquet and a sentiment using the same inks I used on the front and that was it!

Watercolor with Distress Oxide Sprays Take 2 | SSS Sketch Tulip Bouquet

Hey everyone!! So the other day I was using some of the newest Distress Oxide sprays (THIS post if you missed it) and decided to do some watercoloring with them again for today's card. 

I watercolored with Oxide Sprays on a card not too long ago:

Watercolor with Distress Oxide Sprays | SSS Sketch Tulip Bouquet

And I LOVED how that turned out, and I LOVE that stamp set - so I decided to use it again. Since I was in a bit of a funk and needing to get out of it I also went with last week's Color Throwdown Challenge (that I hadn't done last week thanks to said funk):

You can check out what the rest of the team created with these colors HERE <-------click! as well as see what everyone submitted. You can still play along of course but the submission links close as a new challenge goes up on Wednesday!

Here's what I made:

I white heat embossed Simon Says Stamp's Sketch Tulip Bouquet stamp set onto Distress watercolor paper, then watercolored them with water and 2 Distress Oxide Sprays. I used Abandoned Coral Oxide Spray for the blooms and Mowed Lawn Oxide Spray for the stems and leaves.

I used Tumbled Glass and Broken China Oxide inks on the Kraft card stock background - just blending them with mini ink blending tools. I then added some splatter with Broken China Oxide Spray.

I finished off the inside of the card as well as the envelope by inking up the tulips with Abandoned Coral Oxide ink and Mowed Lawn Oxide ink. The sentiment was stamped with Broken China Oxide ink and that was it!

Picket Fence Studios Rose Bouquet with Distress Reinker Watercolor

Happy Friday!!!! 

Today's post is part of a nearly month long series to celebrate Picket Fence Studios first birthday!! I've been a fan of their stamps and dies and ermagerd their Life Changing Blender Brushes really ARE life changing. I use them all the time and they've made a MASSIVE difference - I reach for my inks to do quick blended backgrounds way more often now that I have those brushes. 

Anywho - I have a card and video to share AND a big giveaway too!!

I used Picket Fence's Rose Bouquet stamp set and gold heat embossed it onto water-colour paper. I then watercolored it with Distress Ink Re-inkers in really bright colors. I was inspired by the patterned papers from Doodlebug's Hello 6x6 pack - yes I used some patterned paper again!!

I added some gold splatter using one of my FineTec palettes (this Prima palette is a good cheaper alternative just FYI!).

I finished off the inside of the card by stamping a sentiment from Picket Fence's Forgot To Say Thank You stamp set and gold heat embossing it. I then stamped the roses with Distress Archival ink in Picked Raspberry and that was it!

Studio Katia Kind Bouquet with Prima Pastel Watercolors

It's Friday!!

I don't sound AS bad as I have all week, so I finished the voiceover on this video. I'm the host of this week's Color Throwdown challenge and wanted to get my card and video up!!

You can check out the challenge HERE <------click! to see what everyone else has made with these colors and play along if you'd like!

Here's what I made:

I used Studio Katia's Kind Bouquet stamp set and clear heat embossed it onto water-colour paper after stamping it with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. I then used Prima Pastel Dreams water-colours to color them in and die cut the image with the coordinating die set.

I die cut the card front with Studio Katia's Grid Cover Wafer die from white card stock and adhered it to my white card base to give it all that detail and texture without distracting it from the main images. I added some Cocoa Blush Nuvo Jewel Drops and some Majestic 3mm Sequins for a little bling!

I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the images and sentiment with Oxide inks, and stamped the roses with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink onto a SSS Walnut Woodgrain envelope and that was it!

Watercolor with Distress Oxide Reinkers | SSS Wake Up & Makeup

Hey everyone!! I apologize in the video but just a heads up that my voice sounds pretty bad lol. I caught a chest cold over the weekend and as usual it's affected my voice.

I really wanted to get this video posted though so I powered through:

I LOVE Simon Says Stamp's new Wake Up & Makeup stamp set - and I've been itching to use it since it was released! I had an idea to focus on the lipstick images and sentiment from the set, and decided to use Ranger's Distress Oxide reinkers to do the colouring and create the backgrounds.

I used the reinkers to color in the lipsticks and to paint the backgrounds (adding splatter of course). I also used Inkon3's Liquid Pixie Dust on the lipstick containers to add some super shimmer and sparkle.

I finished the insides of the cards with more sentiments and lipsticks from the Wake Up & Makeup set and that was it!

I created the background with Distress Oxide Inks and sprayed it with Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz to give it a ton of shimmer. I also added some Studio Katia September Crystals as the color was perfect for the background.

I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the tulips and the sentiment with Distress Oxide inks and added some splatter with the Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Spray and that finished it off!

I stamped the images onto Distress Water-colour paper with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink, clear heat embossed them then watercolored them with PinkFresh Studio Liquid water-colours.

I used Honey Bee's Geometric Background stencil along with Blueprint Sketch Distress oxide to create my background. I added splatter with Distress Oxide Sprays and stamped the sentiment directly onto the background with the same Nocturne ink.

I finished off the inside of the card with images from the Tea Time set and more sentiments from the Perfect Blend stamp set and that was it!
