Hello. Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge #451 today.

Leaf stamp is from The Stampin' Place and I stamped it randomly in Jardin Moss onto Neenah solar white cardstock. Cut it up and layered in in dark green. 

The butterfly is from Magenta. I stamped it in versafine ink, heat embossed with clear powder then colored with copics. I fussy cut it out, put tiny foam squares on the back and bent the wings so that it looks like it's flying. I added some wire antenna as I cut the original ones off when fussy cutting.  Added the thanks in the same green cardstock (stacked 3x) and then added some gloss to it. Pierced panel in the background is from The Stamp Market.

Have a great labor day weekend!

Live simply - recycled

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is a designers choice - Donna wants to see something that is recycled. I used an old timey shopping bag. I can't remember where I got it, but I've had it in my stash for a while. 

As you can tell, I distressed it with speckled egg and antique linen distress oxide inks.  I stamped the flower (10307-H, Patti's Flower Outline) and colored with with speckled egg, then fussy cut it out. Added some die cut leaves and some twine and adhered it over the jute ribbon.  Added some black pearls for the centers of the flowers.

 

There's a new challenge every week over at  The House That Stamps Built, and you don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps to link up or win. Also, for my blog readers: Enjoy the 10% discount code to the Repeat Impressions Store posted on the sidebar.

Oodles of Doodles challenge

Hello. Playing in the Monday Simon Says Stamp Oodles of Doodles challenge. I used a back ground that I had previously created in a spurt of playing with alcohol and alloy inks.

I used a bunch of different stamps from a few companies and then added some doodles using a black Zig millennium pen. 

The Believe stamp is Gina K, the dragonfly is Poppy stamps, the clock is Tim Holtz and the border stamp is from Hot off the Press. I heat embossed the clock and the border, then used some steel wool to un-shine them both. 

On the dragonfly, I doodled in some stripes using a gold glitter pen in it's wings. This was a super fun challenge.  Have a great day! 

Have a wonderful day

Hello. Playing in the Sunday Stamps sketch challenge today.

I picked up this red rubber stamp at a stamp show years ago. I colored it with TomBow markers and then spritzed it with water to get a watercolor effect. 

Purple and green cardstock is from paper pizazz. Sentiment is from The Ton.  Added self adhesive pearls from Kaiser craft to the centers of the flowers.   

Have a great weekend.

Thank you

Hello - playing in the CAS colours and Sketch challenge today.

Blended oxide inks, cut out the fishtail banner, then splattered it with water and ink. Layered it in black, added it to the white panel and then adhered it to the black top folding card base. Added the die cut thank you to finish it off.

It turned out to be a pretty quick CAS card.
