Hello crafters, Kirsten here again. I can't believe it's May 20 already, the months are flying by. I've got three quick cards to show you today. The first one uses the Cardamom 12x12 paper from Kaisercraft's Honey Chai collection, layered onto black card. I stamped the Kaisercraft Birdcage stamp with Black Versacolor & heat set with clear embossing powder.
I wound some string around a length of seam binding, stamped the sentiment from the HobbyArt Butterfly Kisses Musical Print stamp set with White Versacolor ink, then heat set it with
white embossing powder & finished with Hobby House adhesive pearls.
On the second card I used the other side of the Cardamom paper on black card as the focal image, with a piece of the Always paper from the Art of Life collection behind. I stamped the Bubble Wrap stamp onto that with embossing ink, then applied Stamp 'n' Bond & gold transfer foil. If you've haven't tried this technique before, see my tutorial in this post.
The sentiment is from the Hobby Art Butterfly Kisses Nautical stamp set & I embellished with seam binding & punched out black circles covered with Glossy Accents.
For the final card I used kraft card as my base. I stamped the Bubble Wrap stamp randomly with Coffee Archival, stamping onto scrap card first so that I only got faded images. Then I stamped the Birdcage stamp with White Versacolor.
Next I stamped the Birdcage stamp again, this time with Black Versacolor & slightly to the right of the white image. I heat set the black image with clear embossing powder.
I embellished the card with Crafts Too tissue tape, a punched out piece of kraft card, a button, string, a tiny clothes peg & sentiments from the HobbyArt Butterfly Kisses Musical Print stamp set.
If any of these have inspired you, why not take part in the current blog challenge? See you next time, happy crafting.
Kirsten
