I have continued my play with the Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous THMM167 stamp and stencil set. On this card, I have only used the stamp set though.
On a piece of blue card, I multi stamped one of the leaves in Versafine Clair "Paradise" blue ink. I mounted it onto an off cut of double dot card and die cut the hello from the same card using the Waffle Flower "Oversized Hello 271309" stamp and die set.
On my previous Day 2 post, I mentioned I was taking part in the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay Challenge. I enjoyed the "wax resist" technique so much, I had another go, making this card.
Again, I started by using the Brusho "Wax Resist" crayons, this time to draw broken horizontal lines across the face of a piece of white card.
I then sprayed two shades of Dylusion Spray Inks: Bubblegum Pink and Crushed Grape.
Once dry, I trimmed the card to size.
I used the Waffle Flower "Oversized Hello Die - 271309" to cut the "Hello" word in white card. I cut two layers of the word and stuck them together, then glued them on to the card. This allows the die cut to sit proud of the card base.
I inked the edges of the card using Versafine Clair "Monarch" purple ink and then mounted it on to a white card blank.
Here's a Birthday card I made this morning, using a number of techniques. It has a gel plate background, there's stamping, die cutting and heat embossing too!
I used Distress Oxide Inks on the gel plate to create the background. I then used the Carabelle Studio "Background Postcard", stamped in Versafine Clair "Chianti" ink. I then coloured the butterflies with an orange coloured pencil.
I then die cut the "Hello" sentiment, using the Waffle Flower "Oversized Hello". I stamped a sentiment from the same stamp and die set in Versafine Clair "Chianti" and heat embossed using Wow! clear embossing powder.
I used "Abandoned Coral" Distress Oxide Ink around the edges of the card, before mounting it on to a darker card to create a border.
I've been on a mission with housework today, but decided to have half an hour off at my craft desk.
Some months ago, I made a bokeh stylecard using various sizes of circles. I had a thought that using the "Funky Fossil Party Balloon Stencil" with the same technique would make a good background for a birthday card, so decided to have a play.
I used assorted colours of Distress Oxide Inks through the stencil (Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Ripe Persimmon, Abandoned Coral and Picked Raspberry), starting with the lightest colour, working through to the darkest, until I had covered the whole area.
I used a Waffle Flower "Over Hello Sized Word Die" cut in pink card and adhered over the balloon background. The sentiment is also by Waffle Flower and is part of their "Oversized Hello" sentiment set stamped in Versafine Clair "Purple Delight" ink.
