Bubbly thanks

Hello...

Just over a month until Christmas. 

Holy heck where has the year gone?

It's always nice to send a thank you card. This year has 

been so crappy its nice to send a note of thanks and 

appreciation to those that love and support us the most.

If you follow along on here you will know that I'm a bit of a fan of stencils. I just love all the different ways you can use them. The stencil I used on this card was 19106 Bubbles Stencil.

So many products work well with stencils. A new product that I have recently just tried is Cosmic Shimmer Matt Chalk Polish. I only have two colours at the moment but will definitely get more. They are so easy to use. I just blended one colour through the stencil. Wiped the stencil clean and then blended the second colour over the top. I made sure I put the stencil down in a different position so that I got different coloured bubbles.

The stencilled background was cut out using the 

16575 Stitched Rectangles dies. I also die cut out the thanks 

sentiment 19592 Hugs Thanks Hello Chunky Script from the 

stencilled background paper. 

The 17583 Banner 2 die has been raised using foam tape and 

the for your friendship sentiment is from the 

20165 So Extra White 1.0 Sentiments

 

WOW Embossing Powder & Paper Rose Studio Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the WOW! Embossing Powder New Release giveaway Hop!  

We are so excited to show case to you the New Release collection. 

Thank you for choosing to stop by! Please make sure you leave a 

comment on each hop for your chance to win one of our $25 Gift Cards 

from both WOW! Embossing Powder and Paper Rose Studio shops by 

Wednesday November 18th, this is open INTERNATIONALLY!

So.... here is the card I created for the blog hop using both 

WOW Embossing Powder and Paper Rose products.

First thing I did was to stencil onto the white cardstock using the 

18391 Hud Stencil and Mont Marte Light Moulding Paste. 

I then poured some of the WOW Opaque British Summer Embossing Powder WK15R(OM) onto parts of the stencilled area and then added WOW Metallic Platinum 

Regular Embossing Powder WC06R(O) onto the rest of the stencilled

area. Be careful when setting the embossing

powder, the light moulding paste can bubble slightly.

The next step for this card is to die cut out the sentiment. 

I used the 18297 Birthday Layered Word Die and the 

18261 Wishes Layered Word Die. The top piece was cut out of white 

cardstock and the bottom layer was cut from vellum. I embossed the 

top piece using WOW Opaque British Summer Embossing Powder WK15R(OM).

The circles were die cut from the 16548 Stitched Circles dies. Some

die cut in vellum, some die cut in white cardstock and then embossed 

using both the WOW embossing powders mentioned above.

You may notice a little bit of hand stitching on my card. Yes I find 

it very relaxing, crazy I know!! I have used DMC Cotton #642.

The embossed white cardstock has been distressed around the edges 

and foam mounted onto a piece of paper from the 

20201 Textures 1.0 6x6 Paper Collection.

Thanks for stopping by....have a wonderful day xx

Thanks so much x

Good morning all xx

Oh my goodness...have you seen the new embossing 

folders from Paper Rose?? 

I've used the 20381 Hand Stitching 2 Embossing Folder 

on the background of this card.  

And you know I love a bit of hand stitching, I've stitched 

on the white cardstock that was cut out from the 

17415 Circle with Lines die.

The gorgeous flowers are fussy cut from the 

20135 Sarah's Story 6x6 Paper Collection. There are so many 

beautiful papers in this collection. The colours are stunning. 

I've put the card together popping some of the flowers with 

foam tape to give it a little bit of a lift and dimension. 

The 19592 Hugs Thanks Hello Chunky Script dies have been cut 

out three times and glued together to give a little extra 

height and thickness.

The wonderful little 20165 So Extra White 1.0 Sentiments are 

perfect to finish off your card sentiment.

And lastly the white splatters have been added using white 

Dina Wakley Gloss Spray. 

Thanks for stopping by - happy creating xx

 

Autumn Leaves Art Journal Page

 

Happy Melbourne Cup Day everyone 

Today I'm sharing a project I have created for Paper Rose. I'm pretty new to all things art journalling. I had seen somewhere that you can alter your pages to make them see through. Thought I'd give it a go.

First thing I did was to trace around the 18213 leaves stencil. With a scalpel I careful cut around some of the leaves. I wanted to take the leaves across both pages of my journal so I decided to stencil with light moulding paste through the stencil.

To keep with he leaves/autumn look I die cut out a heap of leaves from old scrap cardstock. I used 18685 Lined Leaf Outlines die and 19190 Autumn Leaf Outlines Trio dies.

Using sand, cheddar and olive Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays I brushed them onto the pages mixed with a little water. I painted around the cut out leaves and splattered some of the paint onto the pages. The cut out leaves were then drawn around with a black marker pen. 

Finally a quote was die cut out of black cardstock using the gorgeous 19619 Outlined Alphabet dies.
