Wings

There are some symbols in life that have special meaning to me and a heart with wings is certainly one of them.  My dad had heart surgery many years ago after a heart attack.  If you're familiar with that type of surgery, you know that it's important to cough afterwards to clear up your lungs and to prevent pneumonia or any type of infection.  It's also helpful to hold a pillow against your chest when coughing.  While visiting my dad, I went to the mall and ran across a pillow that was a red heart with white wings.  I bought the pillow and took it back to my dad.  He got a kick of having a heart pillow for his heart surgery.  Since then, heart wings have been pretty special to me and I wanted you to know why.

Stampendous has come out with this incredibly fun set called Wings Die Set.  It's neat because you have so many different styles of wings to choose from as well as a few different heart options.  As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to have it!  Here's a little canvas I created using the Wings Die Set as the centerpiece.  I hope you enjoy it.


Here's what I used to create this canvas:

Stampendous® Wings Die Set
Stampendous® Big Words Happy Perfectly Clear™ Stamps Set
Stampendous® Big Words Thanks Perfectly Clear™ Stamps Set
Stampendous® Cling Crackle Rubber Stamp
Stampendous® Mixed Media White Paper
Red Cardstock by Bazzill Basics Paper®
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ - Titan Buff, Pyrrole Red, Quinacridone Magenta, Cobalt Teal Hue
Americana® Acrylic Paint - Whispering Turquoise, True Red, Cherry Red
Archival™ Jet Black Ink Pad in by Ranger®
Copic® Markers in C0, C1
3D Foam Squares by Scrapbook Adhesives®
Artist's Lofts™ Necessities™ Canvas Boards

This canvas was so easy to create, plenty of finger painting to bring out your inner artsy child for some fun!  Now I just have to decide where to put it!

Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you next week with more Stampendous goodness.  Until then, have an awesome weekend.

Hugs,
Lea

It's Sneak Peek week for the new Stampendous July Catalog and each Design Team Members is sharing a card they made for the catalog.  The card I chose is one of my favorites using the new Dragon Skeleton Rubber Stamp and a sentiment from last fall's Spooky Wishes Perfectly Clear™ Stamps.

Here's what I used to create this card:

E-Z Runner® by Scrapbook Adhesives™

Here's what I did to create this card:
  1. Trim a piece of Canson® paper to desired size for card, add drops of paint and mix with fingers
  2. Once paint is dry, stamp crackle image with Archival™ ink
  3. Using VersaMark™, stamp dragon image, add black embossing powder, tap off excess powder and heat (don’t forget to put excess powder back in jar)
  4. Stamp sentiment on black cardstock with VersaMark pad, add Chinese Red powder, tap of excess powder and heat
  5. Trim sentiment closely
  6. Create a black mat for main image
  7. Create an A2 card base from Mandarin cardstock and adhere all layers as shown

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

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
