Scrap Card #38

Today's card was pretty simple to create.  I began by stamping the images directly onto the background, not worrying about any overlap.  I stamped the flowers again onto some X-press it blending card and coloured them with copic markers.  After fussy cutting around each flower I secured them over the previously stamped images with pieces of foam tape.

Scrap Card #37

I don't think you'll be surprised to hear that I went in to this card project with no particular plan in mind.  I just gathered a collection of stamps and inks and went nuts.  If you look closely you might be able to see the trail of... let's call it creativity... that I left in my wake.  There was a diamond background stamp, a mesh stamp, music score, butterfly stamps, bird stamps and finally the blossom stamp.  I used a white pencil to bring the blossoms forward (out of the melee), then added a heat embossed sentiment and some ribbon.

New Release: Hats Off Set

I have lots of stamps that I love using, but they aren't always appropriate for the occasion that requires a card.  I decided to solve that problem by designing some hats that can be added to existing images or used on their own for a cute and quirky card.

Scrap Card #36

There are lots of white ink pads available on the market for stamping, but I have yet to find one that gives the same vibrant result that you get from heat embossing.  The embossing sits on top of the paper, rather than soaking in to it, so you get a lovely opaque result.

Scrap Card #34

Apparently I was in the mood for frames today!  It didn't seem that way when I was putting this card together, but now that I see a photo, it's kind of obvious.
