Card - Pony Magical Birthday

Hi Everyone, We had a great time at Leah's last night. Julie showed us all how to make a gorgeous tool box for Father's Day so check out her blog during the week for a sneak peak. Everyone had gorgeous swap cards to share. We had to use a stamp set from the Autumn/Winter mini catalogue, and one or all of the new in-colours. I thought I'd show you mine below. This one uses Rich Razzleberry - very cute and girly.

A close-up of the pony. I've used blender pens for colouring and dazzling diamonds on the wings.

As you know, I love doing things in different colours - so this one is using soft suede.

And this one is with Melon Mambo.

Recipe:
Stamp Sets:- Pony Party
Ink:- Chocolate Chip / Rich Razzleberry / Pretty in Pink
Cardstock:- Rich Razzleberry / Pretty in Pink / Whisper White / DSP Sweet Always
Punches:- Word Window
Accessories:- Ribbon / SnW Markers / Blender Pens / Crystal Effects / Dazzling Diamonds / Daubers

Happy Stamping!

Card - Thanks

Hi, Today I thought I would show a card using the two-step stamping process. I have used the "Heartfelt Thanks" set, and this technique works with both inks and pastels.

The solid image is stamped in a lighter colour, with the outline stamp inked in a darker shade.

Recipe:

Stamp Sets:- Heartfelt Thanks

Ink:- Brocade Blue / Night of Navy / VersaMark

Cardstock:- Brocade Blue / Night of Navy / Whisper White / Bordering Blue

Punches:- Crop-A-Dile

Accessories:- Ribbon

Happy Stamping!

Good Luck Fish

Hi Everyone, This was a card I made for a monthly challenge on Stampin With Leah. This is such a cute stamp set.

The background was stamped with Versamark, and the sea-weed done with the Stampin' Pastels with some Dazzling Diamonds added.

It's a little hard to tell, but the fish are all embossed with clear powder to give them shine and dimension.

Recipe:

Stamp Sets:- Ocean Commotion / Sincere Salutations

Ink:- Riding Hood Red / Tangerine Tango / Rose Red / Versamark

Cardstock:-Kiwi Kiss / Rose Red / Whisper White

Punches:- Large Oval / Wide Oval

Accessories:- Clear Embossing Powder / Heat Tool / Pastels / Brads / 2 Way Glue Pen / Dazzling Diamonds

Happy Stamping!
