Tin Roof

OMG!!! I got the Tin Roof stamp set from CAS-ual Fridays today and it is Beautiful!!  I could not wait to play with it!!
I started with the larger of the two Tin Roof stamps and inked it up with Versamark ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I then inked the panel with Distress inks.  I die cut the Thanks from the panel using the Smiling Fri-dies. The panel was then mounted over a purple piece of cardstock and stamped a sentiment from the  Bravo stamp set on a white stitched flag die cut.

For my second card I used the smaller Tin Roof image stamp and embossed it with black embossing powder. I used my Gansai watercolors to color my Panel.  Once it was dried I used a wavy die to cut out a section of the card panel. The word Smile is from the new Smiling Fri-dies. and I used the wavy die to line up the sentiment from the Hope Ribbon stamp set onto the card panel between the wavy panel pieces.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look :)

Inspiration Nation Day 3

It is Day 3 and the mood board is up and the colors are beautiful and shapes are geometric!!
For this card I used the abstract stencil from MFT and inked up areas with Sweet Mango, Ocean Mist, and Bubblegum ink by GKD.  I used some masking paper to mask of areas of the stencils rather than have the inks blend. I cut the tag using Tag Buddies Fri-dies.  I used the inlaid die cut technique for the words Love ya.  The word MOM is part of a stamp from Hero Arts that I masked off to just ink up the word. I finished it up with gold twine and sequins.

I hope you liked today's card!!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Browns and Greens

These are not colors I use very much. The Mood board for Day 2 of Inspiration Nation at StampNation is up and when I saw it this morning I did not have clue what I would make. I went to my stamps and looked through them and found a set called Fall Foliage from Gina K Designs and used the colors from the mood board and created this card.

The embellishment was a left over from another card I made recently.
Thanks for coming by and having a look!!

Online Card Class - Sheer and Clear Day 3

This class has been really fun and informative. Today I have used acetate on my card and not to make a shaker card. I embossed it with an embossing folder and sandwiched the acetate between 2 layers of cardstock with a square cut out of it making a "window" to the inside. The leaves and flowers were cut out of a piece of watercolor paper I previously used Color Bursts on and then stamped and die cut the flowers using the Enchanted Garden stamps and dies I got from the Beautiful World - Stamp of Approval collection.

Have a great Sunday, Susan.

CASEing Ally

One of my StampNation sistahs Ally did a periscope yesterday where she created a card with input from the viewers. I decided to CASE her card using similar products and the same stamps and die from the new Stamp of Approval - Beautiful World collection.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Saturday!!

Clear & Sheer Online Card Class

I am taking the Clear & Sheer Online Card Class. I am a bit behind on my homework so here is a card I made from Day 1 & 2 of the class. I used 1/8" Sookwang tape to adhere the vellum which I colored with Ocean Mist, Turquoise Sea and Blue Lagoon inks from Gina K.Designs. The Sentiment is from the HB2U stamp set from Sugar Pea Designs and was heat embossed with Rose Gold Embossing powder from Simon Says Stamp. The twine was a piece that came in from Lawn Fawn tied around my stamps.
