Sneak Peek: Love

Hi friends, this is Angelica, and I’m sharing sneak peaks of the new Love stamp set, which is in the upcoming January 9th release.

For my first card, I started with my background. I used the new Layered Hearts stencils and the following Distress Oxide Inks: Aged Mahogany, Victorian Velvet, and Tattered Rose. I blended Victorian Velvet and a touch of Aged Mahogany around the edges, then used the stencils to ink-blend on the hearts. Before removing Layer B stencil, I brushed the hearts with Ranger Perfect Pearl powder for shimmer.

I used the new Love coordinating dies to die-cut four different pink/red tone card stock. I stacked and glued the letters together, then attached them to the heart panel. I added the panel to a card base with foam adhesive, and added a stamped sentiment and colored heart from the new Love stamp set. I brushed the letters and colored heart with a shimmer pen for extra sparkle, and added shimmer and added Crystal Glaze to the heart to finish the card.

My second card I am sharing today is a bright shaker card.

I used the small accessory stamps from the stamp set to make my own background. This is one of my favorite card making techniques to do. I stamped all of the images onto white card stock, then trimmed the panel. I used Love Shaker die die-cut a window. (I did this before coloring so I didn’t color more than what was necessary.) Before coloring the images with Copic markers, I added a drop shadow to each image with W3 and W1 markers.

To make the shaker element, I added 1/8″ Scor tape around the backside of the die-cut window. I attached a piece of acetate onto the adhesive to close the window. I turned the panel around and added the Love shaker die cut to the front. I turned the panel back around and added thin foam adhesive strips around the window.. I filled the window with Iridescent Heart Confetti, and closed the window with a another piece of acetate. I added foam adhesive all over the back of the panel, and attached it to a red card base. I used a shimmer pen and Crystal Glaze to add sparkle and shine to finish the card.

Stop by tomorrow for a brand new sneak peek of the new release!

Sneak Peek: Pond Friends

Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share with you a sneak peek of the fabulous Pond Friends stamp set. This set is part of the January 9th release and has the sweetest critters.

The two swans are the stars of my first card. I stamped images from the Pond Friends set and coloured them copic markers. I then die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I added a blend of distress oxide inks in peacock feathers and mermaid lagoon to my card base, fading the colour out to white. Next, I heat embossed a border from the new Love Borders stamp set on a panel of white card, using metallic gold embossing powder. Underneath this, I stamped the sentiment from the Pond Friends stamp set. I added the panel to my card with foam adhesive.

I adhered the reeds to my scene with liquid adhesive, then added the swans, hearts and flowers with foam adhesive. As a finishing touch, I added Nuvo Morning Dew Crystal Drops to the hearts.

For my second card, I used a frog from the Pond Friends stamp set to make a Valentines card. I gave him a crown so he’s a frog prince.

To create a window scene on my card, I die cut the previously released Scallop Hearts die from a white card panel. I die cut the scallop heart a couple more times and layered them together for dimension. On the top layer, I used a white pearl embossing powder.

On my card base, I added a blend of colour using distress oxide inks in squeezed lemonade and spun sugar. I stamped the flying trail image directly on the card.

Next, I adhered the panel to my card base. I used a stamp positioner to help me curve the sentiment stamp, from the new Large Floral Hearts stamp set, around the window. I then added the stacked scallop heart to my card.

I used foam tape to add the frog prince and lily pad, and adhered the fly to the frame with liquid adhesive. Finally, I added a few Pearl White jewels for sparkle.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Be sure to visit tomorrow for another sneak peek of the January 9th release!
