AIR Tutorial #2 - Stampendous


It is time for my second   September Artist in Residence Tutorial for Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko.  This time I am sharing the themed challenge - we are using Stampendous images, thank you Stampendous for your generosity - I ADORE this image and had a lot of fun with it.




  • IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Tuxedo Black 
  • IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in  Desert Sand
  • IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Sponge Daubers™  
  • IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink in Spanish Moss 
  •  
Preferred Promotional Partners:


Other:   Want2Scrap© - Swirls Finesse -, Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® - E-Z Tape Runner, Foam Dots

Stamp two copies of the Stampendous - Train Postcard image using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Tuxedo Black.  Colour one image using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Markers.




Cut around the foliage, cutting slightly into the frame, place the cut area on top of the  Grand Ovals Spellbinders® Nestabilities® #1
NOTE:  Spellbinders Dies are numbered from the smallest to biggest - the smallest being #1




Using the Spellbinders™ Grand Calibur Cutting Machine,  cut/emboss the second image using the Labels Eight Spellbinders® Nestabilities®.  Using the Die as a Stencil sponge around the inside edges using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Desert Sand and a IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Sponge Daubers™.  You can see in the photo below the white frame it leaves - such a fabulous effect.




NOTE: I have used an Easel card for my base - using the  Labels Eight Spellbinders® Nestabilities®.  You can find a tutorial for an Easel Card HERE.

Cut one edge from the Fanciful Lattice Spellbinders®  Nestabilities® Card Creator, sponge using Memento™ Dye Ink in Desert Sand and a Sponge Dauber™.   Tuck it under the raised strip on the base of the card and adhere using tape runner.




Cut one Sprightly Sprockets Shapeabilities® #2.  I have used one that I have precut and sponged using Memento™ Dye Ink in Desert Sand and a Sponge Dauber™ - adding more colour until the desired result is achieved.




Stamp a sentiment using  IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink in Spanish Moss.  Cut/emboss using the Classic Ovals LG Nestabilities®, sponge around the edges with the VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink in Spanish Moss.  Pop up onto a Fanciful Lattice Nestabilities® Card Creator tag, using foam dots.  Add the Sprightly Sprockets Shapeabilities® #2 to the right of the layered sentiment.




Finish by adding bling swirls and metal cogs as shown in the photo of the finished card.

You Mean the World to Me

Today I am sharing a card created using Spellbinders Paper Arts Dies, KaiserCraft Paper and Want2Scrap bling
 
 
 
 
All of these have been lying lose on my desk and need to belong somewhere!
 
 
 
 
The image is a free digital that I printed about a year ago (head hung in shame! LOL) It has been coloured using Distressing Inks and a Dauber, but out and popped up onto the Spellbinders Marvelous Squares Nestabililties.
 


The sentiment is from the Shabby Chic Labels Four by JustRite® Papercraft, cut out using the Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine and the Fancy Framed Tags Two Shapeabilities®.  The gorgeous bling from Want2Scrap.

Scripted Love

I am here with a quick post tonight, yes it is Tuesday night here for me.  Our teenagers started a new school year and  all three are at new schools - it is going to take us a few days to get some sort of routine happening as right now we have NONE! LOL


I am sharing with you a card I made recently at a Stampin' Up! Workshop hosted by my friend Chriss and run my SU Demonstrator and friend Ann...I always love to go to anything that involves Ann - she is so inspiring.


We used a number of techniques, ones that I love using and created an Easel Card - one of my favourite style cards - they always have that instant WOW factor for me!


We used one of the punches as a Photo Corner - I love the vintage look it took on...


I could not help myself and some of the ladies know that I just had to add lace, pearls, flowers and of course some gorgeous ribbon....and you know I had to sneak in some gorgeous embossing in the background.


I was very happy with the finished product.....I think I need to make some more easel cards - they are so easy and so effective!
