Skipping Stones Design Stamp and Share - Colour Challenge

Hello everyone,

We are back with our monthly Stamp and Share and we have a colour challenge for you.

 Here is the colour inspiration photo for you to play along with us.  These colours are just gorgeous!

Here is the card I created and I started with the Uplifting stamp set.  I stamped the hot air balloon and coloured it in with my copics.  I fussy cut it out and I added some embroidery thread to attached the basket to the balloon.

I embossed the back panel with a cloud embossing folder and then cut it out with a frame die.  I took some blue ink that matched the challenge colour and added that to just the clouds with a sponge dauber.  I cut out he grass and hillside and added that to the back panel.  I popped up the frame with foam tape and added that to the card.  I stamped the sentiment from the same set in Versafine onyx black ink and popped that up too.  

To finish off the card I added some Wink of Stella and sequins.


Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to link up your project, we love seeing what you create!

January Stamp and Share Challenge - Anything Goes

Hello everyone,

I'm back with our monthly Stamp and Share challenge and our these is Anything Goes. 

I'm taking the latest Online Card Class and it's advanced water colouring so I thought I would apply one of today's techniques.  It was bringing images to the front and give them more dimension.  So that is what I did with the butterflies from the Dandelion Dreams  stamp set.  

I stamped the images in a medium grey dye ink and on this water colour paper it resisted the paint a bit then I let it dry.  I then went back in and added the same colour but just around the butterflies and then pulled out the colour to give that dimension.  I added the sentiment in chocolate ink and added some sequins in a few shades of brown and gold.

Don't forget to head over to the Skipping Stones Design blog and add your project to the linky.  We can't wait to see what you've created!

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!

Skipping Stones Design Stamp & Share

Hello everyone,

I'm back with our Stamp and Share for November.

For my card today I used the Merry and Bright mini set.  I used watercolour paper and heat embossed the snowflakes with white embossing powder and I used distress ink for the background.  

I also heat embossed withe sentiment with white embossing powder on dark grey card stock and popped it up on foam tape.  To finish off my card I used marshmallow sequins along with some liquid pearls in charcoal.
