Snowstorm

 

Esther here today sharing this frosty winter card that uses the BRAND NEW Snowstorm stencil. 

To create my card I pressed Versamark watermark ink through the snowflake stencil on mixed media paper, removed the stencil, added white embossing powder, and heat set. Next, I used Prize Ribbon distress ink to do some ink smooshing and then inked the edges with Chipped Sapphire distress ink. I added the largest snowflake from Large Snowflake dies set and then a die cut sentiment over that.

Back to School

 

Hello friend, Esther here today with a back-to-school card. This was my first time to use gelatos, and I had a lot of fun experimenting with them. To create this background I scribbled a line of gelato in rainbow colors at the top of a piece of mixed media paper. Next I stood the paper up on it's side and spritzed it with water to make the colors run. After heat setting I added the stamped images and die cut sentiment.  The Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps die set I used on this card is BRAND NEW for the month of August!

Happy Everything

 

Hello, Esther here today with this summery floral card. To create my card I stamped one of the flower pots from the Special Blooms Stamp Set twice on mixed media paper and colored them with my Arteza Real Brush Pens before die cutting with the coordinating Special Blooms Dies. I die cut a tag from black card stock and added some white text using the Typewriter Text Background stamp. The gingham was stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink using one of the images from Texture Tiles 4 . A bit of ribbon, three rhinestones, and some paper lace complete this card.

Wedding Card

 

Esther here today with a wedding card! To create my card I inked up the 3D Doily embossing folder with gray ink, inserted a piece of light gray paper, and ran it through my machine. I lightly inked over the doily part with white pigment ink to make it stand out from the background a bit more. The dress, tux, and bouquet were stamped in waterproof ink and colored with Arteza Real Brush Pens. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and added a die cut sentiment to one corner of the card.  Quick, easy, and elegant!

Shabby Mixed Media Coffee

 

Esther here today with this mixed media coffee card. The Spring Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop is in full swing. It's a traditional hop this time with prizes and giveaways at each stop. Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is proud to be one of the sponsors for this hop and is giving away a $25 gift code to one lucky commenter. Click here to go to the original post.

To create my card today I started with a piece of kraft card stock and swiped some white pigment ink across it. Next I stamped the coffee words from texture tiles 9 across the top and bottom and layered up my lace, dictionary page pieces, and burlap ribbon. Using distress inks I did some ink smooshing on watercolor paper, die cut it with a circle die, and stamped a bit of text from texture tiles 1 over top. After fussy cutting one of the coffee cups from I Like Big Cups I added a bit of lace to the front. A sentiment and two little hearts complete this shabby mixed media card.

Tulips


Esther here today with a pretty purple tulip card. The background was created by sponging wilted violet ink through the script stencil and inking along the edges to give the panel more color. A piece of white lace separates the stenciled design from the solidly inked bottom part of the panel. The flowers, leaves, and butterfly were stamped in waterproof ink on watercolor paper and colored with watercolor brush pens.

He heals the brokenhearted

   

Esther here today sharing a soft pink card using my favorite stamp and die set from the February Release --- Beautiful Bouquets. I created the gingham background using Texture Tiles 4 and added a sentiment from Fear Not. The pretty little flourish comes from the Decorative Frames Toppers set. To soften the embossed background just a little, I lightly rubbed some white ink over the raised part.

Autumn Wreath

 

 Hello friend, Esther here today sharing this warm and cozy autumn wreath card. I started by stamping the smallest leaves and acorns (from the Autumn Splendor stamp set) in Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink and painting them with watercolors. After fussy cutting I added splatters in both walnut stain distress ink and white acrylic paint. 


 Next, I cut a ring using  the largest two Spellbinders nestabilities dies, and arranged my leaves/acorns around the circle using foam mounting tape for dimension. 

For the background, I stamped the NEW Fall Background in versamark watermark ink on kraft cardstock. I distressed the edges with my open scissors and inked all the way around with vintage photo distress ink from Ranger.  The last step was adding the sentiment in Fallen Leaves Versafine Clair Ink.

Just a Note

 

Esther here today sharing a bee themed card. I started by watercoloring the top left part of mix media card front with watercolor paints from Zenacolor. Next I stamped the honeycomb design from Sweet as Honey in Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide (Ranger), and added a few white paint splatters. To finish it off, I added a sentiment from Everyday Greetings and embossed the entire panel with the Organic Lined 3D embossing folder from Altenew. 

The bees and flowers (In This Together) were stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink  and colored with Arteza Real Brush Pens. I stamped, colored, and popped up an extra flower in the center of my arrangement for a bit more dimension.
