More Bonanza Buddies

Happy Wednesday! Quick post here for you today. But I wanted to share another card with the Bonanza Buddies bundle. These guys are just the cutest and so much cuter when there is a die to cut them out!!

I decided to whip out some embossing paste for this card. It's been a while since I've used it. But it made me remember how much fun it is and how it gives the card some extra dimension. I used the cloud mask from the Pattern Party Decorative masks and used the embossing paste on Pool Party card stock. Once that dried, I added a strip of Granny Apple Green card stock and the die cut animals.

In the top left corner, I die cut the party banners with Sparkle Glimmer paper and added a sentiment in the bottom corner. I love using the classic label punch for those smaller sentiments.

I hope this card brightened your day today.

Have a wonderful day!!

Colorful Seasons: Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Hello Welcome to the Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog hop. There are 20 of us from around the world so be sure to follow along to see everyone's projects. You should have just come from Holly's blog.

This month we are focusing on the Color Theory Product Suite. There are a ton of great products in this suite. I have used a few of the images/sentiments for my projects this month.

Let's get started.

My first card is simple serene card. I used the branch and flower images from the set. I stamped all of the flowers in Powder Pink and the little stems were stamped in Sweet Sugarplum (it's hard to see that in the photo). I die cut these flowers with the coordinating thinlits. I also cut flowers out of vellum to layer on top of the stamped flowers. It just softens the flowers a bit. The base layer of the card is one of the sheets from the Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stacks. (Say that 5 times fast, haha!). I finished off the card with some pearls.

My next card is almost the complete opposite of the first card. It's a little wild and crazy. I decided to try something different with the embossing paste.

I smeared a bunch of paste on top of the Pool Party cardstock (as shown in the photo on the left). I waited for it to dry a bit. Then with my aqua painter, I dipped it in the ink of my choosing and added lots of splatters to the embossing paste. In the end you come out with a funky piece of artwork!

To not take away from that, I kept the rest of the card simple. I added one of the great sentiments from the set, the lovely Adirondack chair from the thinlits and some ribbon and rhinestones.

Thanks for stopping by!

Embossed Rainbow Medallion

Hello everyone! Again, it's been a while since I've posted. June has been CRAZY! My husband was away in Guatemala for 2 weeks. He gets back and then I had to go to Indianapolis for a week so my time to update has been limited. I did do this card a couple of weeks ago but just never had the chance to edit the pictures.

I was having lots of fun with the new embossing paste. I die cut a medallion from the Eastern Medallions Thinlit dies and covered it with embossing paste. I used my reinkers to make several different colors of paste and just covered the whole medallion with the different colors. See below

It looks like such a mess but when you remove the cardstock you end up with a pretty medallion. Once it was dry I used a circle thinlit to cut it out from the white cardstock. I layered the circle onto a Bermuda Bay scalloped circle.

I then used several of pieces of the Foil Frenzy DSP. Love this stuff. I finished it with a sentiment and some glitter enamel dots. There are minimal embellishments on this card (like NO ribbon, gasp!) but this card is still so fun and bright. Between the DSP and embossed medallion you don't need too much more on the card.

I hope you liked today's card. And I hope you have been trying out the embossing paste. I'd love to see what you've done with it!

Have a great day!

Global Design Project Challenge GPP090 - Hot Air Balloons

Well it's a cold dreary Tuesday here in NJ. It makes me want to be at home on the couch binge watching Shameless on Netflix. I just started that the other day and now it's all I want to watch. But before I got back into it last night, I had a bit of time after the kids went to sleep to play along with this weeks Global Design Project challenge. This week was a sketch challenge. I have fun with sketch challenges too. It helps me try to use different layouts instead of always going back to the same things I always do.

This is a pretty basic sketch so lots of ways you can interpret it. I decided to keep exactly to the sketch.

Here is my take.

I used the Lift Me Up stamp set along with the new Pattern Party decorative masks and embossing paste. The embossing paste is so fun!! It gives a fun texture to your cards. Last week I used them with sponge daubers for a colorful background. This time I kept it simple and just used the masks with the paste. I can't wait to do more backgrounds with the embossing paste.

Hopefully you can see in this picture the texture the paste gives. The rest of the card is fairly simple just using the stamps from the set. The card was finished off with some bakers twine and metallic shapes.

And I'm excited to say that my card from last week's challenge was picked as one of the additional winners. Stop by to check out the other winners from last week and try out this week's challenge!

Have a nice day!
