Jewelled Lashes

Here we have Jewelled Lashes which is a stamp by Daisy B Stamps.

The card is 8”x8” so you can see how big the stamp is.  

I stamped the main image in Grey Versafine and coloured using my Inktense blocks.  The sentiment is stamped in Versafine Clare.  I added jewels and decorated with Nuvo Drops and Glossy Accents.

Thanks for looking.

Rainbow Hibiscus

Hi everyone, Maria here, hope you are all well.  Today I have the Rainbow Hibiscus card for you.  Made using the Hibiscus Stamp by Colourific.

Here’s what you will need:
A5 Hibiscus Stamp from Colourific
Versamark ink pad
White Embossing Powder
Multicoloured die inks - I used Catherine Pooler minis Life if the Party set
Nuvo drops - multicoloured
White Stamping Card
7x7” white card blank
3D Foam Pads
Coloured Card for mounting - I used pastel pink and blue
Sentiment stamp - I used Thanks from my stash.

To make the card:

1. Take a square of white stamping card for the main background (I used 6” x6”), and blend the coloured die inks in stripes diagonal lines across the card.
2. Randomly stamp the stamens, flourishes and blooms using the Versamark and emboss using the white embossing powder.
3. Using the green ink pad, stamp the small stamen randomly on this backing paper.
4. On a separate piece of stamping card, stamp different sizes of the blooms in different colours and cut out leaving a small white border.
5. Using the same colour Nuvo Drops as the blooms, work your way around the outside of each bloom making small dots. Do this to all the cut out blooms.  Leave these to air dry.
6. Mount up the backing paper onto the pink and blue card and stick these onto a 7x7” card blank.
7. Add 3 yellow Nuvo Drops to each of the corners in the white card base and leave to dry.
8. Stamp a sentiment, I used Thanks from my stash, and mount using 3D foam pads.
9. Finally, once the Nuvo drops are set, attach the blooms to the card using 3D foam pads.

Voila, all done.  Hope you like it. See you next week with another new card.

Happy Friday everybody, I've used the Colourific A5 Hibiscus stamp to make this lovely card.

If you like my card and want to make one like it, here is what you will need:

A5 Hibiscus stamp from Colourific

White watercolour card

Distress Oxide inks in Candied Apple, Twisted Citron, Weathered Wood, Twisted Lemonade

Catherine Pooler Minis set - Life of the party - Lime Rickey, Tiara, Tutti Frutti

PVA Glue

Dark red card

3d Foam Pads

Coloured pencils, I have Faber-Castell Polychromos

Pink Nuvo Pearl drops

8 x 8 card blank

Here is what I did:

1. Use the Distress Oxides to make a splodgy background by stamping on a blending mat, adding water and swishing a piece of card through, just smaller than the 8x8" card blank.  Dry with heat gun.
2. On a smaller piece of watercolour card, wet it with water and stamp the inked up solid flower stamp (I used the medium one) by using the Catherine Pooler Inks, yellow in the middle and red on the outside.  Spritz with water again until the inks all blend together - then dry with heat gun.
3. Stamp the large solid flower and the swirls onto a separate piece of water coloured card and cut out leaving a small border.
4. Use a red coloured pencil to colour the inside part of the flower head.
5. Use a sentiment stamp from your stash and stamp onto a separate piece of card and again, cut it out.
6. Mount up the cut out images onto the smaller piece of background card using the glue for the flower stems and 3D foam pads for the blossoms.
7. Add small dots of the Nuvo Pearl Drops to the inside of the flower and let it dry.
8. Mount this topper onto a piece of dark red card which is cut out slightly larger to give a darker border.
9. Mount this on an angle onto the Distressed Oxide background, then attach it to an 8 x 8" card Blank.
10. Finally add the sentiment on a piece of 3D foam.

There you have it, all done.  Don't forget to clean up through the background inking process, it can be quite messy, but that where the fun is!

Hope you enjoy making this card, if you do leave me a message and tell your friends.

Bye for now

Here is what I did:

Take the 4.5 x 6" watercolour card and stamp the Jordan Girl and Sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Stamp a small amount of the Distress Oxides onto your blending mat and use the ink to paint the image.

Outline the Jordan Girl image with a light grey Nuvo Marker.

Stamp the Fossilised Amber and Fired Brick Distress Oxides on your mat again, this time using more ink, then spritz with water.  Swipe, swish and dab the 5 x 6.5" watercolour paper through the ink.

Dry naturally or using a heat tool.  Mount the background onto the black card then onto the A5 card blank

Adhere the topper to the card and add the Nuvo Crystal Drops.

To finish the card off, I used the Nuvo Crystal Glaze to enhance the flower and butterfly.

And there you go, all done!  Don't forget to let the crystal drops and glaze dry thoroughly before touching!
