Dreaming of You

So, how are you enjoying the many faces of Stampendous?  Pretty darn awesome, aren't they?  For my card today, I've used Beautiful Braid rubber stamp combined with Stampendous Dreamweaver Stencil DWLG762 Fairy.  From the first time I saw this stamp, I saw butterfly and fairy wings on her back.  You will definitely see this stamp again combined with butterfly wings!

Another thing I love to do is mix the various Stampendous Essentials to get my own mix.  I love having the ability to mix the various fragments, glitters, micas and embossing powders to match my papers and colored image.  If you don't have color fragments, you need them!!  I love those delicious little flakes of color.

Here's what I used to create this card:

Stampendous® Beautiful Braid Rubber Stamp

Stampendous® Dreamweaver Stencil DWLG762 Fairy

Copic® Markers

Here's what I did to create this card:

Stamp image with black ink and color with markers.

Paste emboss fairy wings onto back of girl.

Add lilac powder to wings and heat with heat gun for molten magic technique.

Using VersaMarker™, extend wing size with marker, sprinkle on blue embossing powder, heat.

Trim image closely.

Mix fragments, mica and glitters in a separate container and set aside.

Create 6x6 card base from blue cardstock.

Trim background papers as shown and adhere to card base.

Take image and edge with VersaMark™ pad, sprinkle on ice blue embossing enamel, tap off excess.

Sprinkle on essentials mix and heat powder, this will embed the mix into the powder.

Adhere image to card front.

Using glue, adhere additional mix as shown, set aside for glue to dry, tap off loose mix and return to container.

This card might look like it was complicated to create, however, it really wasn't.  It was actually quite easy to put together and I'm so pleased with the final result.
