Creative Scrapbook Centrale Team Project 2023-Jul-11

Hi,

It's my turn to post on Creation Scrapbook Centrale FB page today, and I am sharing another 'Garden' theme project.  I am inspired by the herbs in my garden, particularly this pretty editable flower: Naturtium.

I have created a multi-layered 3D card.


I stamped and colored Hero Arts Hero Florals Nasturtium three times.  Die cut them with Flowering Nasturtium Frame Cut and glued them onto three panels.  Top layer die cut with Arch die, middle layer die cut with Arch die and adhered with trellis die cut, and the bottom layer was just ink blended.



Here's a photo of my Nasturtium in my garden.


Other challenges:

(The Nasturtium has such bright and sunny colors)




Main supplies used for my project are photographed below:



Thanks so much for visiting.  Have a lovely day!

Woodblock Wednesday Jan 2023

 Hi,

I am joining Amy Tsuruta for Woodblock Wednesday today.  I used one of my oldest woodblock stamp (Floating Hearts) sent to me by Hero Arts after I entered their 'mail-in' card challenge even though I didn't win.  Their kind act encouraged me to keep on trying.  


I created the main panel with heat embossing, watercoloring, and masking; and matted it with a couple layer of card stock.  Very simple.  But I did add a coat of glossy accent on the red heart.




Woodblock I used are:

Hero Arts Floating Hearts F2818
Hero Arts Old Letter Writing S4878

Other supplies includes:
Hero Arts Mid-tone Shadow ink (Wet Cement)
Versamark Watermark Ink
Brass Embossing Powder
Glossy Accent

Challenges:








Thanks for coming over to my blog.  Have a very good day!!

Woodblock Wednesday

 Happy Hump day!

I am joining Amy Tsuruta today to give some inky love to our woodblock stamp.

My project features two woodblock stamp by Hero Arts.  Little Greetings Holidays (LL516) and Sleeping Fox by Lia (D6109).  Of course I added newer clear stamp to the mix.


The arche card base is first die cut, then I dry embossed the front panel.  I added a Antique Gold arche die cut to frame the poinsettia, and the Sleeping Fox.

The Sleeping Fox is stamped with archival Acorn on a piece ink smooshed panel spritzed with Gold mica spray.  And I hand cut it.


Do you have any woodblock stamp in your stash?  May be it's time to dust them off and ink them up.

Galentine's ATCs

 Hello craft friends, hope you're all doing well!

I have been making some ATCs for an exchange, with  a group of artists who frequent my LSS.  And this is the latest set I've done.


 

I'd call it clean and layered.  The background panel is stamped with sentiment, then dry embossed with a stencil.  Champagne glass stamped in black, colored with alcohol markers, die cut, adhered, then embellished with a die cut bow.

By the way, I Googled the definition of Galentine (just in case you didn't know):

Galentine's Day, formed by a blend of gal and Valentine's Day, is a day in which women celebrate their female friendships. ... That's right: Galentine's Day—a day for women to celebrate their friendships with their lady friends. It's Valentine's Day with your gals.

There you have it!
