The stamp used here is a “A Little Lace”. It’s beautiful and I’ve used it a number of times in both cards and gift bags. It’s a great set to use to stamp your own patterned paper. You can make a bespoke design in just the colour and size you want.

The colours I used here are Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie. It keeps it very tone on tone and yet it is still vibrant and colourful. The elegant faceted gems just give it that touch of bling to lift the whole card.

I was so excited when I saw blending brushes in the new catalogue. They work a treat to blend inks. As you may know I love playing with colours and inks. I’ve always struggled to get a good blend with a sponge but with these blending brushes it was as easy as pie.

You don’t need a separate brush for each colour. I have one for each colour family, for example, one for blues, one for yellows / oranges etc…. I just store them in a cute penguin mug on my desk. Brilliant!!

When I showed my mother this card she was in awe of these flowers. They stamp so beautifully and look realistic. I used the stamparatus stamping tool and had not problem lining up the layers. I started with my lightest colour working towards the darkest. The stamp set is All things Fabulous and of course has matching dies to cut everything out, making super duper easy to make this card.

Rainbow Card – Use up your Scraps – Stampin’ Up!

I love this rainbow card. I’ve used up strips of cardstock that I had in my scrap pile and just added a sentiment and some rhinestones. I love how it came out, so bright and bold. A ray of sunshine to make me smile on this gloomy cloudy days.

Sunset Silhouette – Art Journal Page

Today I have an art journal page featuring a sunset Silhouette to share with you, Stampin’ Up! style. This page uses the Silhouette Scenes stamps that I love. Stampin’ Up! brought out some new watercolour paper this year. This is my first time using it and it is amazing !!!

To be truthful I wasn’t sure where I was going when I started this page but I love the colours. The watercolour paper makes blending these colours a doodle. I have used So Saffron, Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie and they go together beautifully to produce this sunset silhouette page.

As with all painting and colouring, the trick is to layer colours, textures and images to achieve your overall picture. You can always add more colour but taking it away again is not so easy!!

This piece has a mixed media feel to it as I have used die cuts, stamps, ink and stencils in the piece. Mixed media art is a piece of artwork that combines various techniques, textures and mediums in one piece as in this sunset silhouette page.

I have a video tutorial below and supply list as always.

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!
