Embossed Doily


I started with a piece of vanilla cardstock and stamped the doily with versamark then heat embossed with stampendous' pink pastel EP. Brayered pumpkin pie, cherry cobbler and so saffron over card then sponged early espresso inside doily;wiped off excess from brayering. Used ticket punch on top and matted with espresso and added designer series button and espresso baker's twine; added dotted scallop ribbon border punched in pink pirouette and espresso. Stamped thanks so much from old sincere salutations on pink pirouette; punched with oval, and matted in espresso with scallop oval. Used ticket punch on top edges of espresso and white cardstock.

Colorful Doilies

So I appear to be stuck on coloring with blender pens...I will need to snap out of it pretty soon :)

I stamped the delicate doily images in stazon black onto whisper white cardstock; colored them in with blender pen and wisteria wonder, wild wasabi, and marina mist. Matted with bashful blue and certainly celery. Banners are embossed with square lattice, chevron and fancy fan embossing folders. Added gumball green ribbon, pearls, itty bitty banner "congratulations" cut with bitty banner framelit.

Snowflakes

 
 
This is the first time I've tried out this snowflake soiree set. The snowflakes in this set from the Holiday Catalog are beautiful!!! I stamped with stazon black onto watercolor paper, and colored in the snowflakes with blender pens using elegant eggplant and not quite navy. I used the finishing touches edgelits to mat the image.

Fall Color Twist


This is a fall leaves card with a little twist to the colors. I thought the vibrant colors on the french foliage set were fun against the pink pirouhette background panel embossed with the woodgrain EF. I first stamped the french foliage leaves in stazon black on watercolor paper; colored with a blender pen using calypso coral, elegant eggplant and melon mambo. Easy peasy!

Acrylic Block Leaves


 
I tried the acrylic block technique and didn't like the image on the paper so I decided to diecut the leaves out of it and add some color spritzing and brayering to them.

I stamped pumpkin pie and cajun craze on my acrylic block, sprayed with water, then stamped on whisper white. I then diecut all of the leaves; used SU's color spritzer tool and added cherry cobbler, more mustard and crumb cake. Brayered edges with soft suede on some leaves and cajun craze on the others. Background panels are embossed with wood grain folder. Cardstock: espresso, so saffron, whisper white. Happy Thanksgiving from TEENY TINY WISHES set. Leaves are spellbinders nested maple leaves. Ribbon is daffodil delight. I used popup dots on a few of the leaves.
