Creating a Colorful Tag

  Hello!  Today I am excited to share this colorful tag I created using both rubber and clear stamps! How fun it was to mix both kinds of stamps on my project.  I started by layering distress inks on my surface.  After spritzing inks with a bit a water I laid my tag into the ink.  Just look at the gorgeous colors!  I then grabbed two of my favorite stamp sets.  I Brake for Stamps  Florals Sheet Flowers for you Bouquet Happy Birthday Thank you SB132B Blank Page Muse  Beyond the Border Mixed Media Set 1 CLEAR Stamps designed by Pam Bray Using the   Florals Sheet Flowers for you Bouquet Happy Birthday Thank you SB132B   from I Brake for Stamps, I stamped the floral image repeatedly onto the tag and then heat embossed the images.

Creating a Funny Masculine Card

Greetings! Today I am excited to share this funny masculine card I created for my dad's birthday!  As the oldest daughter of an avid fisherman (with no sons), my dad and I spent lots of time fishing over the years.  While we don't get to fish together as much as we use to, I know he will love this card.  because what else do kids do but wait for dad to find the fish and then steal their spot!   To create this card I paired the Fishing Spot stamp set from I Brake for Stamps with papers from  the  Cyan Consortium 6x6 inch sheets Paper Pack designed by Pam Bray .   After stamping my image onto stamping paper, I colored my images with watercolor markers and a water brush. You can see below how the image comes to life.  I matted the colored stamping and sentiment onto my Cyan Papers  . I then cover my card base with a map tissue paper.   I added a scrap of burlap and then layered my images to complete my card.  I hope you...
