Papertrey Ink Summer Challenge

 Good Morning! 

Papertrey Ink is having a magnificent Summer Challenge!  

You must incorporate these 3 techniques into your creation:

Ink Blending.

Die Cut Layering.

Stenciling.

Here is what I created:

I used the Papertrey Ink Products;

Day Dreamer stamp and dies.

Ruby Reprise stamp set, sentiment.

Mix and Mat Flourish dies.

Fun Frames dies.

Make It Market Garden Gate Kit, stencil.

Green Tea Leaves Designer Paper.

Stenciled ink blending with Cracked Pistachio and Peeled Paint inks.

Die cut layering with the Mix and Mat Flourish and Fun Frames dies.

Stenciling from one of the stencils included in the Garden Gate Kit.

I love that slotted rectangle die cut from the Mix and Mat Flourish set.

After die cutting I added thin foam strips to the back of the slots that were die cut.

They all are all popped up and add some great interest and texture,

an eclipse technique if you will.

A FUN card to create!

Masked Heart Wreath

Good afternoon!

This card will be entered into the Challenges at Papertrey Ink, Masked Heart Wreath, Scrapy Land, Favorite Colors and Penny Black, Anything Goes!

Super fun technique that you could use with any shape.  Check out Melissa's video HERE!

 

I used a Spellbinders Hearts die to make my mask.  A perfect classic heart shape.  I used the Papertrey Ink stamp sets; Day Dreamer, Garden Gate, Love & Marriage and Love Notes.  I stamped all of my floral images in inks in Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Rose Red, So Saffron and Tempting Turquoise.....some of my most favorite colors!  I also used the PTI Big Basics Love You die, which I cropped.  

 

 

 

I also added a bit of sparkle using a Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Pen.  I added some Washi Tape to the inside of the card too.  I thought this would make a lovely Engagement card and popped it in the mail to a happy little couple!

 

Thanks so much for coming by, love it when you do!

Happy WCMD!

Good Morning!  Hope you are all seeking shelter form this storm (Joaquin) in your craft room on this wonderful World Card Making Day!  Or as my Hubby says, just another typical day in my life!  :)

I made this birthday card for one of my very dear online BFF's, Judy!  I will enter into the Challenges at  Simon Says WCMD and Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes!

Judy always seems to be flabbergasted by my love and use of layers, so I kind of went over the top on this design! 

 

Designer Papers are The Gathering Collection, by Authentique.  Inks in Always Artichoke, Antique Linen, Pumpkin Pie, Tangerine Tango, Timber Brown and Tuxedo Black.

 

 

Gina K Designs stamps; Enjoy The Sunshine, Petals & Wings and Stamp It Big 2.

Papertrey Ink stamps and dies; Day Dreamer.  MFT Simply Fabulous Sayings sentiments stamp set.

 

I just loved making this card, it measures 5.5" squared.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

 

Enjoy~~
