Kindness

Did a case from Stampin' Success magazine, I just changed it up a little bit as I did not have the new stamp set from the Occasions Mini - I (Heart) Hearts.  Used the heart from the Love You Much set and punches to recreate the case.  Using Boho Backgrounds & Itty Bitty Backgounds on the hearts with Clear embossing powder.  I really like this color combo on the Whisper White, it really makes the colors pop!

The Last Christmas Card!

This is the card I gave to the Nurse Practioner that I work with everyday.  This is my masterpiece of the season!  A little bit of everything going on with this card.  The snowlady was stamped on watercolor paper with black stazon and watercolor with my SU Classic Inks.  The snow at the bottom is called Snow-Tex and I sprinkled MS Crystal Coarse Glitter onto it while it was still wet.  The candy cane was stamped with black stazon onto Whisper White cardstock.  I filled it in with Stickles Glitter Glue and cut it out when it was dry.  The shimmer effect was created by using Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint.  I mixed it with rubbing alcohol and put it in a spray bottle.  The alcohol dries faster and the cardstock does not warp from getting wet!  The faux fur on the Snowlady was achieved by using Polar White Flowersoft.

Happy Halloween Watercoloring

Hello Everyone!

Lovely day in Central Illinois, the sun is shining today!  The last two days we had constant rain and gloomy, yuck!  This is my favorite technique, watercoloring with dye ink.  It's like using Copics but without the expense.  I smooch the ink onto the top lid of my SU ink pad add a little water and I can control the intensity!  A little sponging around the edges and some extra leaves for dimension. 
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by :-)
