Craig's Birthday 2021

Hello Papercrafters,
We gave this card to our Son-in-law for his Birthday this month.
I started by using the plain embossing paste and then coloured the embossing past with Crumb Cake and Soft Suede Re-inkers so I had a monochromatic look to the bricks.  Stamped the images, coloured them in and then sponged Crumb Cake  on the wine bottle label and sign.  The Bottle top and Label are also Gold heat embossed. I filled in the edge of the sign with a black pen.  The sentiment was stamped with Versamark and White Heat embossed and then sponged with Soft Suede ink.

Thanks for dropping by today, lovely to see you here.
Hugs,

Kaela's 16

Hello Friends,
Our eldest Grand daughter turns 16 today and this is the card we gave her.  Kaela loves to play golf and is doing very well at it and recently played Pennants with three other girls and they  won the competition.  Kaela only lost one of her games throughout the competition.
I stamped the trees in different shades of green after I sponged the background with make up brushes and Distress Inks.  The lady, golf buggy and one of the small bushes were fussy cut from the Country Club Designer Paper.  The rest of the design elements are die cuts, the pine trees where fussy cut after stamping and the 16 was stamped on the die cut flag.  The sentiment was gold Heat embossed to finish off.

Thanks for your visit today.
Hugs,

Hi there,

Today's post is a reminder to let you know that you can still play along at CAS Mix Up until the 24th March, 2021 with this month's challenge.

I inked up my die cuts with three different colours of green using re-inkers for more intense colour.  then spritzed with water and stamped on my Whisper White card.  I used one of the die cut's as the main focal point when it was dry.  I also stamped the inside of my card in the same way.

Thanks for your visit today, lovely to see you here.

CAS Mix Up Challenge - March 2021 - Print Making With Die-Cuts - Butterflies

Hi there,
We are celebrating our 5th Birthday at CAS Mix Up this month.  Bonnie is challenging us to do some Print making with Die Cuts using water and ink.  I used this butterfly from Papertrey Ink with mixed results. My prints are very light and although I used dark coloured Markers the water washed them out a lot.  For the inside I didn't use as much water and achieved better results.  I did add the die cuts I used to make the prints on the inside.  We Welcome Ros Crawford as our Guest Designer for March.
