Gold and Diamonds!

Missed Stamp Camp?  

I am de-stashing my studio.  This card is available as a DIY kit in Etsy. 

More DIY kits to come!

So this card is mostly a collage of trendy things I love... paper, lace, washi tape, designer paper, gold flakes, ombre letters, and of course, diamonds!

The ombre letters were created by sponging white ink over the Night of Navy word, followed by gold tipped letters.

Thank you for stopping by.

Have a great day!

Watercolor Art with Brusho Crystals

Want to step up your stampin' game?  Then, you might want to try these brusho crystals.

With just a tiny amount of crystals and some water, you can achieve a pretty blend of watercolors.  Definitely use watercolor paper and an archival/permanent black ink for your stamp, prior to using the crystals and water.  A heat tool is helpful to dry in between some colors, so that they don't get too muddy.

The tag was gold embossed on the edges and on the sentiment.  Can you also see the gold embossed dots between the flowers?

Tri-colored sequins just finish off the bouquet.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a great day,

Blooming Heartfelt Thoughts

This is just a simple monochromatic card with an intricate floral stamp arrangement.  I popped the center flower by stamping on another cardstock, fussy-cutting and popping with a dimensional.

Gold sequins always add a little flash...

And, tone on tone punching adds a type of shadow, like a ruffle... you know it's there, it feels good, but it's not overwhelming.

Thanks for stopping by.

Would love to hear your thoughts,

Celebrating You

I loved how using two coordinating die-cuts together created a lace-y, delicate flower.  Originally, I was making this a 2-step die cutting process... put one die cut through, then match up the other die cut... 'cause ya' know, I like to do double work... :P

However, both die cuts will go through at the same time and create a beautiful flower!  Who knew!  (LOL... everyone but me!)

I wanted the "YOU" to stand out more.  So, I die cut out and additional "YOU" in black card stock and off-set the word to create a shadow.

Oh... and I cannot forget the diamond bling!

This card utilized a background die cut over designer paper for an interested colored effect.  I took the extra card stock diamonds (a girl can never have too many diamonds) from the die cut background and added for additional layer and texture.

Thanks for stopping by.
