Pretty Paisley

The new Stampendous Cling Paisley Pattern Stamp Set and matching Die Set has got to be a new favorite of mine!  I love this set and the versatility it provides.  You can create any type of card with this set!  It all hinges on the colors you use and the other stamps and embellishments you pair with it. It's one of those sets that can be girly or just right for the guys, a must in my book.  Here's the card I created for today celebrating friendship with the new Scrolled Hello Rubber Stamp.  Mask off the "my friend" and you have a simple "hello" that can be used for anyone.  Don't you just love stamps that can do double duty?  I know I do!


Here's what I used to create this card:

E-Z Runner® by Scrapbook Adhesives™
3D Foam Mounting Squares by Scrapbook Adhesives®
Mono Glue Pen by Tombow®

Here's what I did to create this card:

  1. Using Memento™ ink, randomly stamp images on white paper
  2. Color images with markers
  3. Trim to desired card size (my card is an A2)
  4. Using die, cut out the one piece to be foam mounted with the sentiment
  5. With VersaFine™ ink, stamp the sentiment on a scrap of white paper and trim down to size
  6. Create your card base with a vertical tent fold
  7. Trim patterned paper to fit width of stamped background paper
  8. Adhere sentiment to patterned paper as shown
  9. Adhere all layers as shown
  10. With foam squares, adhere die cut image next to sentiment
  11. Using the glue pen, add glitter where desired

This was an incredibly easy card to create but it leaves a bold impact with the vibrant colors.  I do hope you enjoy it and find some inspiration to boot!  I'll see you again real soon and, in the meantime,  have a blessed weekend!

Cheers!

Stampendous Sticks With Scrapbook Adhesives



The Stampendous design team has really enjoyed hopping this week and showcasing some of the new April catalog products with great products from Scrapbook Adhesives. (To spot the new stuff easily, look through the What’s New section of our website or browse our print catalog online!)   

For my project this week, I've used the Donna-Salazar Designs with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Denim Art Journal.  I’ve decorated the cover and prepared 10 pages inside in preparation for our upcoming family beach trip this summer.  So, as you will see, it has pages ready to be used but none are complete.  Now I can’t wait for our trip so I can fill the pages with memories!

In an attempt to make things easier to follow along, I’m going to list the “ingredients” for each page/set of pages separately.  I know it repeats a lot of products, but, this way you’ll know exactly what I’ve used for each page.  I’m not going to include instructions for this post, as that would make it horrendously long.  I think it’s pretty easy to see what was done once you know what I used.


Here's what I used to decorate this journal:



Cover (repeating the cover from the previous post):
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Cobalt Teal Hue, Cobalt Turquoise Hue, Primary Cyan, Translucent White
DecoArt® Media™ Modeling Paste
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso

StāzOn™ Jet Black Ink Pad by Tsukineko®/Imagine Crafts®
Miscellaneous Twine



Page 1:
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso
DecoArt® Media™ Shimmer Mister in Turquoise
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Pyrrole Orange and Hansa Yellow Medium



Pages 2-3:
Liquitex® Airbrush Medium
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso
DecoArt™ Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Cobalt Teal Hue, Translucent White and Cobalt Turquoise Hue



Pages 4-5:
Copic® Marker - Black
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Titan Buff, Green Gold, Cobalt Teal Hue

Pages 6-7:

Duo Designs


It is always a great time hopping with Tombow USA and we are thrilled to be hopping over the weekend with them. Our design teams will be sharing some pretty awesome projects with products from our prizes list, you will not want to miss out on a single day!  So, you've seen the fabulous Stampendous Metal Stencil Duo Sets and our new Fitted Frames Die Sets, what you don't see are the wonderful Tombow products holding it all together!

For today, I've created two cards at one time with a fun Batik look using the Blossom Metal Stencil Due Set.  One card uses the positive of the stencils and the other card uses the spray-inked negative side of the stencils.  Here's the positive:


And a close-up that shows the sparkle:


Here's the negative side that utilizes the ink spray residue on the stencils by flipping the stencil and rubbing the ink onto a blank card front:

And, another close-up:

Here's what I used to create both cards:

Memories Mists™ in Mango Lemonade, Iridescent, Cherry Smoothie, Fruit Punch and Bright Gold
Jet Black Archival Ink™ Pad by Ranger®
African Daisy Cardstock by Bazzill Basics Paper®
Roselle Cardstock by Bazzill Basics Paper®
Watermelon 1.5" Sheer Ribbon by May Arts Ribbon®
Fuchsia 1/2" Solid Wrinkled Ribbon by May Arts Ribbon®

Here's what I did to create both cards:

Trim two pieces of white paper to fit as card fronts.
Lay down butterfly stencil while blocking off excess white space and spritz with yellow mist.
Pick up stencil and place on other card front and gently press down on stencil.
Repeat the same process once more with the yellow mist and butterfly stencil and then twice with the pink mist and flower stencil.
Spritz Iridescent mist on both card fronts (I used a heavier application on the "Amazing" card).
Splatter some of the Fruit Punch mist and then some of the Bright Gold mist onto each card front.
Stamp both sentiments onto a piece of white paper.
Tape dies over each sentiment and corresponding cardstock colors and run through a die cutting machine.
Spritz die cut sentiments with mists.
Trim cardstocks to create each in an A2 tent fold card base.
Using a small amount of Mono Adhesive on the back of each card front, attach ribbons.
Using additional Mono Adhesive, attach card fronts to bases and sentiments to their mats.
Using 3D Foam Tabs, attach sentiments to cards.
