Hi crafty friends!  This is my last post for August and boy oh boy, do we have some special stamps to share next month at OCS, so make sure you check back soon!

Now just in case you were wondering…this is what I did on my card… I first mixed white embossing paste and black ink, then smeared it on thick over my star stencil. I really wanted the stars to pop off the page and they very much do. I added the super star die sentiment, more stars, some border dies, and can you believe it..no stamp or any colouring this week.!

I hope you all are seeing stars after this! Have a great day and keep on crafting!

 

Here is my concoction of ink and paste, I used a popsicle stick to mix it.

Another terrific Tuesday is here and I have a tweet of a card to share. I used my prismacolour pencils to colour a few high hopes stamps and framed them in a memory box window die.

On this terrific Tuesday I’m sharing a cool and masculine card,  done in monochromatic and with a heat embossed image. I used embossing paste with a stencil for the first time, and think its such a neat look and fun to use.

Enjoy and have wonderful day!

What a sweet image I have to share today at One Crazy Stamper, I thought this one would look perfect in grayscale and on an all white card.  To create this I used a medley of clear jewels, glitter, die cuts and embossing folders also in all white.

I started off making all my die cuts and embossed papers, then glittered the flower dies, used distress paint on some dies, added embossing paste on the fancy tag die and used frantage embossing power on the butterflies. My card has as many as three layers done with pop dots in some areas, and in person is quiet lovely.

I hope you all like it and have a wonderful day!

 

There is a finished inside with my coloured image, but I seemed to have lost the file! I’ll post it when/if I find it.

Can you believe a month of summer break has passed already? I’ve really been enjoying having my kids home, enjoying the lazy and late mornings all cuddled in my bed and all the fun places and things we’ve done so far.

Now on to my card, I stamped  a vintage sailboat image and water coloured it with my derwnt inktense pencils. I had the perfect carta bella DP and brads to match the  theme. I used one of the plain pieces of DP and  taped down a memory box  star stencil, inked versamark  watermark right on, then used black embossing powder with a few sprinkles of aged gold chunks from my frontage embossing kit and heat embossed it.
