You Warm Me Up

Hi everyone! Samantha Star here!
I created a fun little card and I wanted to share it with you! Here is what you'll need: Here Comes the Sun and BFFs as well as Distress Ink, gold pigment ink, a bright colored embossing powder, and some cardstock


First off, with a sponge cover an area of your cardstock that is about the size of the "Here Comes the Sun" stamp and Wild Honey Distress Ink. Make it blotchy and patchy, we're not looking for even color.


Ink up your "Here comes the Sun" stamp with gold pigment ink and stamp onto your blotchy cardstock :)



Sprinkle with a bright colored embossing powder and heat. Do not put on an even coating of powder, you want to still be able to see the gold ink. Heat with a heat gun.


Stamp a sentiment into the center of the sun, trim around your stamped image and glue onto your card!

Shimmer Tree


Adding bling to your project doesn't have to be messy! When I use powdered glitter, I find it EVERYWHERE for days! Here's an easy way to add a subtle shine without making a big'ol mess!


Step 1) Ink your stamp in the colors of your choice using a waterbased ink (Distress Ink works wonders)


Step 2) Spray your stamp with a shimmery paint.


Step 3) Stamp onto your paper!


Step 4) Look at that shimmer!


Here's my finished card! I used: Bit of Burlap, Of the Same Tree, Loopy Loo Polka Dot & Ain't No Sunshine. Thanks so much for stopping by,
Samantha
