CAS- ual Fridays August release Day 2- Foxy

Hello my dear crafty friends!

Welcome to our CAS- ual Fridays August new release Day 2 !

Today we are going to share our creations made with a totally lovely 

Foxy stamp set.

I am not a great coloring person, so I did this card in a kind of a light Mixed Media style using water color markers inside the heat embossed stamped image and then I just " moved"  the inks with baby wipe over the card. Some green mist splashes were added over the card for more interest.
 The only embellishments added to this card were enamel and glitter drops and actually this is one layer card after all!

Sparkle card tutorial with SNS

Hello my dear crafty friends!

Irit from Irit Shalom Designs is here today  with my last July  Sparkle N' Sprinkle release project.

This time I decided to make a card with themed stamps for totally another occasion.

So this is a general " Sparkle" card made with Halloween stamp from the new released 

When black cats prowl SNS stamp set.

 I need to say that it's very hard to take photos when you use mirror Tonic Studios cardstock. So I am sorry  for not getting better photos, unless you would see me all over them. (Mirror it is).
This is an easy to make Mixed Media card and even these who struggle with mediums can do it in totally no time.
I have a full step by step tutorial for you to use and I hope you would try to make the very similar background using Tonic adorable mica mists, glimmer paste and you dies and stencils.

Product list:

Tea- rific tape 1/2''

 Step by step tutorial:
1.Use dotted stencil (any kind) with Tonic Golden crystal glimmer paste over a die cut black cardstock. Try to find the die that has some edges and not a simple rectangle one.

2. Let the paste dry and mist with three colors of Tonic Mica mists. Add them generously and let them dry.

 3. Stamp the black cat from this Halloween new SNS stamp set on white cardstock using VersaMark and Black detail SNS embossing powder.  Hand cut the image. Then brush some Brushable glue over the stamped cat image and sprinkle Black Ice SNS glitter.

 4. Use same die and same misted black cardstock to make a sentiment strip.

 5. Stamp the sentiment and heat emboss with Golden Sparkle embossing powder.Arrange the sentiment over Gold mirror cardstock.

I hope that you liked my small card making tutorial and see you soon with more SNS inspiration!

One stamp- three projects with SNS

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my new Sparkle N' Sprinkle blog post.

Today I am going to share " same stamp- three project" crafty post.

I used same large single SNS stamp called Danielle and made three totally different projects with this beauty.

The first is this Mixed Media card and I made a full tutorial for you to follow in my own blog.

Product list:

Danielle#533

Pretty Blooms #736

Happy Birthday metal stencil Stampendous

Nuvo glimmer paste Black diamond

Nuvo Masking fluid

Nuvo Mica mist Antique gold  

Embossingpowder Timber SNS

VersaMark ink

Stencil Rebecca Baer

Water colors

 The card was made with artistic stencil, Nuvo glitter paste and then misted with Nuvo Mica mist for the background.

The lady's image was stamped over cardstock, heat embossed with black embossing powder and then covered with Masking fluid. When fluid was dry the more stamped image were added around using Pretty Blooms stamp set. 

Then the main image was colored, misted and added to the card.

The sentiment was done with the same Glimmer paste over stencil.

And as I said- here is the full tutorial for you to follow. And now a few close-m ups to this card:

And now for my second card today:

 Product list:

Embossing powder Black detail SNS

Glitter Diamond Dust 

Glitter Ocean

 Nuvo crystal drops Ebony black

 Embossable acetate

Sticker paper

Stencil - Rebecca Baer

Alcohol inks- Ranger

The second Mixed Media card was made with the same stamp, but as it was stamped over the transparency I flipped it to another side. The image was then colored on the back with alcohol inks. The background was made with sticker paper, stencil and two SNS gorgeous glitters. First add the dark glitter over the stencil and then peel the stencil off and add  white color over the sticker bare spaces.

The sentiment was die cut several times and heat embossed with black embossing powder.

 And a couple close- ups to this card:

 The last project is a stamped Steampunk tag that was made with the same image stamped over transparency. But this time I made the " just add ink" coloring on the back as this is a totally free project and Steampunk is not intended for pretty coloring.

The chipboard pieces were all heat embossed with four different embossing powders in metallic colors.

Little moments of green altered canvas

 Sometimes when I have spare time I make a project or two for cuttent web challenges.
This green canvas is this kind of a project.
 Made for fun and challenges and not for any design team job and it was a real fun to make something some monochromatic and springy and bright after all dark projects I made as my usual altered art.
 So here are some close- ups:

  Made with different stencils and texture pastes, lots of paints and mists from different companies and Dusty Attic chipboards.It's actually large canvas and the smaller one over it.

I enter this canvas to one web challenge as it was made for this challenge only:
Snip Art- mostly inspired by color green and flowers and nature and I think it's a great fit to this challenge.
