Thank you

I was looking on YouTube last week for techniques with making cards and I came across a video about a dryer sheet technique. After watching the video and a couple other videos on this technique, I decided I just had to try it!! It doesn't quite look as good as I'd hoped, but here it is anyway...

First, I used an aqua blue ink from StudioG inks to stamp the flower from the Fabulous Florets stamp set onto the white card panel. Then I used an adhesive spray and I sprayed it on the card panel. Then I took a used dryer sheet and put it onto the adhesive sprayed card panel. I folded the dryer sheet over the backside and adhered it to the back. Then I sprinkled on some very fine silver glitter and shook off the excess.

I used the other flowers from the Fabulous Florets stamp set along with the leaf stem for the card theme. I used Close to Cocoa ink for the leaf stem.

For the flowers, I used copic markers to color them.

The sentiment is from Hero Arts ribbon messages stamp and cut set. I highlighted it with a light blue versa magic chalk ink.

I realize that the stampin up dotted scallop border punch is retired, but I used it anyway, with hopes that maybe stampin up will eventually un-retire it! I think this border punch looks good on certain cards!

Thanks for stopping by to visit! 

Happy Birthday

This is my first attempt at using the dryer sheet technique on a card. I saw a video on YouTube showing this technique and I decided that I just had to try it!!
I used the damask 2 embossing folder and then I used a wine red copic marker to color the embossed design.
Then I sprayed a little adhesive spray onto the card panel. Then I put the used dryer sheet over the card panel. Then I sprinkled some silver glitter on it and shook off the excess.
I used 2 shades of blue bakers twine, which is held on by a brad on the front and adhered to the back.
The ribbon and the sentiment are from hero arts ribbon messages stamp and cut.
I hope you've enjoyed your visit! Thanks for stopping by!

It's your birthday

This is another card for this weeks freshly made sketches card challenge.
I decided on a Valentine theme for this one. And since the embellishment is black, red, and pink, I chose to use those three colors with my cardstock papers.
The two hearts in the corners are stamped on with black ink. I also used the same three colors for the dotted scallop border punch for behind the embellishment.
I added the pearls for an added look.

I made this card 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches. I chose a sympathy theme because of my father passing away last Friday, January 11th.
I used a bigz top note die cut, which I cut in half after running the top note through my bigkick machine.
The leaf pattern is a framelit die that I found and purchased on Amazon. I added the butterfly, along with the pearls.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts So sorry stamp and cut set.
