We ARE Better Together

It was pure joy for me to release the Celebrate Diversity set with the Faces of Diversity stamp this month. We are all better together are we not? 

My rainbow effect was achieved with inks that were masked off in sections and applied with Ink Blending Brushes. I hope you like the effect I was trying to achieve.

Let's just simply be BETTER.

Gnomies!

 Hi, TJ Friends! Hope everyone has been enjoying some crafty time! I have been playing a LOT with one of the new releases...Gnomies Forever.  This is such a cute and fun set.  It comes with five absolutely adorable gnomes and six phrases/sentiments. That's 11 stamps in one set! How awesome is that! Here is the card I created...

I created an embossed background and gave it a good swipe using an IZink Dye Ink Pad.  I trimmed down the panel, added a solid matte and attached it to the card base.

I stamped a couple of the gnomes and colored them with Kaisercraft Gel Pens (the glittery guy on the right) and Nuvo Glitter Markers (the shimmery guy on the left).

After trimming them down, I glued one guy flat and the other popped up on some foam adhesive.

I stamped the sentiments and used a die to cut out the decorative piece which was then also mounted with foam adhesive.

Something about this cheery card just makes me smile. Hope it gives you a grin as well!

Hello fellow stampers!  Wow, wasn't this an awesome new release?  You can see all of the newly released stamps here.

For my card, I tore computer paper, layed it over the background, then stamped Circular Vines over top in Old Olive.  Then using blending brushes, I lightly sponged along the edges of the torn paper.  Next, I stamped out two stamps from Five Fab Phrases, Set of 10. 

Have a great week!

Home is where someone runs to meet you...

Anyone who has a dog knows this is true! Nothing feels like home just the same way that dog kisses do.  The Someone Runs stamp was colored with Colored Pencils, and the background uses the Paw Prints Stencil, colored with Aladine Meil and Cire inks with  Ink Blending Brushes. Happy dog kisses to you!

Kick-Ass Shoes!

Happy Sunday, friends!  I hope you have been enjoying the fabulous August release stamps and projects!  It's my turn on the TJ blog today, and I have a slim-line card to show.

TJ stamps:   Kick-Ass Shoes

I created a slim-line card from pink card stock.  For the background panel, I used distress oxide inks.  I added some splatters from a gold leafing pen.

I embossed the shoes in gold and pink, layered them onto a die cut piece, and added them to the card front, along with the word shoes on a scrap piece outlined in gold leafing pen.

Inside, I stamped the shoes and the verse.
