More upsy daisy ideas

 

 

I love the way you can ‘paint’ onto stamps using SU markers (the technique is referred to as ‘direct to rubber’)! Look how I’ve managed to get some green, as well as some shading on the flowers. Just a simple ‘huff’ and stamp! Then you can add dazzlin diamonds or crystal effects for a different dimension on the flowers. I love this pink!

One of my favourite colour combinations – pink & chocolate

I’ve made a few of these. I love how you can use the scallop punch, cut up each curve, and turn them into flowers!! I have used a 1/2″ & 3/4″ round punch to creat the centres out of matching dsp, then applied crystal effects, which makes the dsp middle look like shiny buttons!  Plain, simple and quite elegant!

I’m back.. yaay for wireless internet!!

This last month has been the longest month ever, without internet!!  I’m so sorry I haven’t been updating my blog.

I bought this stamp set to use for male cards.

This is the first time I used it. I stamped the lighthouse to the left and the sail boat to the right..   Using techniques I have learned from Michelle Dindorf (amazing stamper who creates layers with the brayer, and sponging), I’ve managed to make a ‘picture’ with depth. The cardstock underneath is black and baja breeze, I have used clear embossing (using a versamarker over the top of the images, once coloured). The main pictures have been stamped in night of navy ink. I’ve added some white gel pen, and the rest is sponging. Hope you like it!!  I promise to be back on more regularly, and start up my classes from my home shortly.
