Watercolor Birthday card


Happy Sunday !! Today I'm sharing a watercolor card I made with Simon Says Stamp products.
For the background and balloons I used strathmore bristol cardstock. It's perfect for watercoloring!
I began with diecutting the front panel with SSS wonky rectangles and five SSS balloons.
I used Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi for watercoloring, #33, #35, #43, #51 and #63.
I dipped the twine cords in multi medium matte. Then I straightened the cords and let them dry.
When they were completely dry I adhered the cords on the back of the balloons with tape. Then I put double sided foam tape on the back of the balloons and placed them on the splattered panel.
I also diecut the SSS banner and stamped the sentiment of SSS brush stroke messages on it.
I enjoyed the watercoloring!!

Frameless Shaker Card (Lawn Fawn Scripty XOXO)


Hello, everyone!! Here I share a frameless shaker card I made with Lawn Fawn products.
I began with diecutting a piece of strathmore bristol cardstock with Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle stackables.
I ink blended the rectangle panel with distress oxide worn lipstick and I splattered it with a lot of water and Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi #91.
For this card I watched several videos,  I will link the one I took the example from, video frameless shaker card.
I diecut three scripty xoxo of pink cardstock and glued them together. And on the top I glued a gold one. I also diecut a few of gold heart stackables and glued them on the vellum.
I mixed different sequins, pink,white, purple and gold.
It's the first time I make a frameless shaker card and I like the result!!

Hamsa card


Happy Sunday, everyone!! Today I'm sharing a special birthday card I made for my best friend!!
I began with diecutting a piece of strathmore bristol with SSS wonky rectangles. In the center I diecut a window with SSS hamsa. My first idea was to make a shaker card. But later a changed my mind and just left it without the sequins.

I ink blended the bottom part with dusty concord, then shaded lilac and finished it on top with spun sugar. Then I glued a piece of acetate on the back of the cardstock.
I diecut three hamsa of pink cardstock and glued them together. And on the top I glued a gold one.
I heat embossed the message from SSS it's no secret with Zing gold embossing powder.  Then I glued the gold hamsa on the window part of the card.
I put double sided foam tape on the back of the main panel and placed it on a gold cardstock.
I think she is going to love it!!

Valentine's tags (Lawn Fawn)


Happy Sunday, everyone!! Today I'm sharing a few valentine's tags I made with Lawn Fawn products.
I began with diecutting the Lawn Fawn stitched party banners on a piece of strathmore bristol smooth cardstock. I ink blended the banner with distress ink gathered twigs and picked raspberry.
Then I diecut in the center of the banner with Lawn Fawn pillow box give a hoot.
I also used Lawn Fawn happy wedding for the "xoxoxo" message.
To finish the card I glued a Lawn Lawn Fawn heart on one wing of each owl. I made a bow with red sparkle cord on the bottom of the tag and glued big googly eyes.
On the back of the tag I put Lawn Fawn gift card pocket.
I think they turned out really cute!!
