Sneak Peek {New In Colors & Stamps}

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

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.

Flower Fancy with Vellum Butterflies

Card Stock: Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Vellum; Ink: Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Real Red Marker, Riding Hood Red Marker, Old Olive Marker, Certainly Celery Marker; Stamps: Flower Fancy, Messages for Mom; Tools & Accessories: Scallop Trim Border Punch, Beautiful Wings Embosslit, Crystal Effects, Rhinestones, 3/8″ Twill Tape.

I stamped the flowers from Flower Fancy with Chocolate Chip ink and colored them in with Real Red and Certainly Celery Marker. Then, taking a slightly darker color (Riding Hood Red and Old Olive), outlined the images and accented them with Crystal Effects.

The butterflies were made using Vellum card stock and the Beautiful Wings Embosslit in the Big Shot. I colored the rhinestones with red permanent marker (any kind will do). They are adhered to the card with mini glue dots.

Across the bottom, I added a strip of Chocolate Chip card stock punched with the Scallop Trim Border Punch. Then, I stamped onto the Twill Tape with Real Red ink and a sentiment from Messages for Mom.
