Paper Towel Ink Transfer

Hi everyone I thought I would play along with a few challenge and CAS Mix up gave me the inspiration to use a Paper towel, check out the challenge for a few ways to use paper towel on your cards.

 For my card, I pulled a paper towel out of  my spray box, the ones that catch the drips. I sprayed the paper towel with water and pressed it on to some mixed media card stock. I then stamped this magenta flower heart on the card stock and used Gouache watercoours on the flower and then re-stamped it after painting. I touched it up a with some Lyra pencils.

this is a close up of the texture from the paper towel and my Gouache watercolour paints.

I'm entering this for the following challenges

CAS Christmas Mid Month Reminder

Hi everyone,  it's time for  CAS Christmas Card Challenge mid month reminder and our host Loll is asking us to make a Glittery Christmas card.

Our Guest Designer this month is Michelle (Seashell Creations), drop by and check out her beautiful card along with all the cards from the Design team for some Christmas inspiration.

I seem to be on a black and white roll with a touch of sparkle for this months challenge. My card is a stencilled wreath by Magenta and I've used some Prima Art Extravagance Unicorn paste. The paste has mica flakes, wow they really have a glittery shine to them. FYI some of the mica flakes are large so may not go through  small stencil holes.

Don't you love that holographic glittery effect😀

Ink: Ranger archival black

September Craft Stampers Magazing

Hi Everyone, I'm so excited to tell you I have a card featured in Craft Stampers Magazine. It was one I created at out retreat in May which will be in Septembers Edition (in the stores on the 1st of August)

Nancy showed us a cut up technique for our card fronts, as I was working on it I noticed the theme for Craft Stampers readers submissions for the September magazine was the sea. I had used some Impression Obsession sea shell stamps and found the perfect mix of colours for the Submission so I emailed a picture of the card to Trish at Craft Stampers, she immediately emailed me back to say it had been accepted. Whoo hooo 👍

This is the image from Craft stampers

And this is the full image of my card using the Cut up Technique.
