Sneak Peek {New In Colors & Stamps}

Posted by on June 8, 2011 Leave a Comment

I was able to preorder  a few things from the upcoming catalog (available July 1, 2011) including the 5 new In Colors. This card showcases all of the new In Colors: Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Island Indigo, Wisteria Wonder, and Lucky Limeade.

The card base is Pool Party (my favorite), layered with Basic Gray card stock. The stamps are from a Sneak Peek set called My Friend. I stamped the droplet image five times, turning it upside down every other time. Then, I colored in the drops with the In Color Markers and topped them off with Crystal Effects.

The sentiment is also from My Friend, stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. I added a small button from Bitty Buttons, layered with Calypso Coral card stock I punched with the corresponding Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack. I tied some Linen Thread through the button and attached it with a Mini Glue Dot.

Domino Magnets

Posted by on May 30, 2011 3 Comments

I love how these domino magnets turned out. The black and white really pops. The stamp is an old SAB set Polka Dot Punches. I stamped the circle image randomly on the domino, with Versamark ink. Then, I heat embossed with Black Embossing Powder.

Here is the same stamp set, but embossed with White Embossing Powder. I applied the ink to the domino after embossing with a Sponge Dauber. The colors used here are: Daffodil Delight, Certainly Celery, Lovely Lilac, and Regal Rose.

Last but not least, these domino magnets were made using the En Francais Background stamp. I stamped onto the domino with Brown Stazon ink. Then, using sponge daubers, I applied Pretty in Pink and So Saffron ink to the dominoes.

In the lower corner of each domino, I added a button (from Designer Buttons) with a Basic Pearl in the center of the flower. I glued the flowers on with Crystal Effects.

Sail Away Masculine Card

Posted by on May 29, 2011 Leave a Comment

This is a really versatile masculine card–Father’s Day, Birthday, etc. The stamp is called Sail Away from the latest Mini Catalog.

For the base, I used Pear Pizazz card stock. I stamped the sailboat on Watercolor Paper with Brown Stazon ink and then colored the image with Stampin UP Markers and blended them with an Aquapainter. That was layered on So Saffron card stock.

Across the card, I used Baja Breeze card stock embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and the Big Shot. On either side, I attached clear Bitty Buttons threaded with Linen Thread.
