Take Three - Fly Away Newsprint (3)

Today's card is resist embossed - It's been a while since I've used that technique. This stamp is perfect for that - I just love the moment when the distress ink is being applied and the patttern reveals itself ;))

I've used walnut stain (my fave brown) and the victorian velvet - I think those colors go well together!

The round piece is punched out of watercolor paper and stamped with a very cute stamp I just discovered to fit inside a 2" circle!  This stamp is from the Amour set!

That's all for today ! I hope you are having a great day! I will be packing tonight for the scrapbooking event  - so see you again next week!

Take Three - Fly Away Newsprint (2)

Hey,

Already wednesday - time is flying and so is this cute airship ;)  On this 2nd card I stamped the entire background on some Bazzill Cream cardstock and then randomly stamped the compas (?) from the Past Times set using the Midtone Cup O' Joe and the Splash Chalk ink. In this way this newsprint background changes character....

The stamped frame is from the Sending you Love set and I used some cream twine to tie around the ends..  The entire piece was mounted on some Pool Layering paper (LOVE that color!)

Thank you so much for stopping by! I will be back on thursday with my 3rd and last card! And then I will be taking a break - preparing for this event!! See some of you there - I hope!!

Take Three - Fly Away Newsprint (1)

Hey!

I am back with the first of 3 cards using the cute Fly Away Newsprint. I've always had a thing for airships and hot air balloons. So romantic, huh? :)

A recent scrapbooking event here in Denmark kept me busy the last week and just being around a lot of creative women during the weekend made me wanna make cards!! Tonight, I was finally able to do that!  Yay!

Supplies:  
Stamps: Hero Arts Fly Away Newsprint, Hero Arts Mix n'Match.
Papers: Hero Arts Layering Eggshell, Bazzill kraft, Echo Park This & That Graceful.
Other: MS punch, twine, Distress ink Walnut Stain, Hero Arts Cup O Joe.


See you tomorrow with the 2nd one ;)

Butterfly week (5)

Back with my final butterfly card this week. I planned to blog about this earlier - but I had a few other things on my mind the last days.  I hope you are having a great weekend!

This card is using the sweet stamp from the Hero Arts Greetings set.  And I can't stop using the Ampersand stamp - love it!! The blue silk ribbon seem a bit off the color scheme on the photo - does not look that bad IRL :-)

The Ampersand background is stamped on some lovely Bo Bunny paper...
I stamped a few additional tags using the Hero Arts shadow inks - good to have some for future use!

Thanks for stopping by this week! Have a good one!

Butterfly week (4)

A slightly different version of the card from the first day :-) for you today...

And here is an example of using that same butterfly stamp from Hero Arts - color it with copics (no fancy coloring), embossing with clear embossing powder. (I also colored the backside of the butterflies (solid with copics).

and finally pin it onto some flourist wire (using Ranger Powertape) - ready to use in a flower decoration of any kind...

Butterfly week (3)

Hey! Fluttering by with my 3rd card this week using butterflies! This is my husband's favorite - he is so sweet to care about my hobby, isn't he? ;))

I used a combination of the butterflies from my 1st and 2nd card - the Hero Arts butterfly and die and the MFT die cuts.... I adore textpaper - and particulary this thick type of print... Must see if I can get more of this...

 

And some details ....

Supplies: 

hero Arts /sizzix stamp /die set,  Hero Arts Happy Birthday, MFT butterfly die, EK Success scallop punch, Hero Arts layering paper, Bazzill kraft some misc pp.

Have a great day! 

Butterfly week (2)

Hey there!

I am back with my 2nd butterfly card this week. This is with the same Newpaper background - but this time I made the butterflies with the MFT butterfly dies. They are so pretty and I love how they can be combined....

Another close up on the butterflies - the picture is taken on my rustic garden table (salvaged wood) - it almost look like driftwood, huh?

And here is the card for today!

Thanks so much for stopping by today - I enjoy reading your comments!
