Addicted to Stamping

Water Colour Friendship.

I really hope this stamp set makes into the next catty. The scallop oval punch is perfect for making clouds. I used some of the cut outs to sponge clouds and punched some out and sponged around the edges. For the fence I stamped the wagon then ran it through my big shot using a texture plate and it actually looks like wood.

Quick and Easy Card Box

I just realized I never posted the instructions for this quick and easy card box. Cut a piece of DSP 10" wide x 12" high. Score length wise @ 2" & 8". Score width wise @ 5" & 7". Cut the two horizontal score lines up to the vertical score lines and fold your box up to assemble. To make the flap, score a 6" x 6" piece of cardstock @ 1" & 3". Attach the 1" piece to the back of your card box.

Here's a sample I made with some old sale-a-bration paper. I cut the swirl shape on the lid free hand. I ran the lid through my big shot using the polk-a-dot texture plate before attaching it to the box.  

Embossed Wreath

WhoHoo! My card made it to Stamper's Showcase. I've had many requests for instructions so here they are:

1.To make this card Stamp the small flowers from the Embrace Life stamp set in Artichoke classic ink.

2. Colour the white flowers with a versamarker and emboss with clear.

3. I used the leaves from Flower Fancy, stamping the large leaves in Mellow Moss and the small leaves in Artichoke classic ink.

4. Get your Iredescent Ice embossing powder ready. Sponge Mellow Moss classic ink over the whole wreath. Wipe quickly with a tissue to clean off the white flowers then pour the embossing powder over your wreath while the ink is still wet.

5. The pink flowers were stamped on whisper white and coloured with Regal Rose ink and a blender pen. Cut the flowers out and adhere them to your card with pop dots.

Relax

Here's another punch art card. I couldn't resist adding the Little Mrs.

I used Many Mower and Doodle This stamp sets, my coluzzle and some punches; wide oval, large oval, scallop oval, hearts, 5 petal, boho blossoms, photo corners, 1 1/4" circle, word window, scallop circle and scallop edge.

Enjoy Life

I was working on some punch art and got a little side tracked. This would be a good time to thank Stampin' Up for not selling a punch that resembles a speedo.

I used the Enjoy Every Moment stamp set, my coluzzle and some punches; wide oval, photo corners, 1 1/4" circle, word window, scallop circle and scallop edge.
