Don't be a.....

PRICK!!! 

hahahahah do you think I can get away that this is a Mexican Xmas tree????? hahahahhaha I hope so else I am in trouble again and you might never see me again if Lizzy finds out..... 

Again I am using one of the stamps that you get with a subscription to the Creepy Cute Chronicles...

So I am showing you how I created the background for this card.

I used the Spectrum Noir Midas inkpad Rose Gold. I loveeee rose gold wish I could turn everything in rose gold. it is almost as good as PURPLE which is my top favourite color hahahaha

First I used a white stamping card and purple low tack tape. I cut this in 2 as it was to width and this way the stripes will be smaller which I love more for the size card I am making. I used a tiny make up brush to apply the Rose gold to the paper. 

 Now remove the purple tape gently, as sometimes even the low tack tape tears papers.

  

And than this is the end result. I always use my heatgun to dry the inks, so it will not smear after that.

Hope you like my post ;) Wishing you all a merry christmas or happy hollidays for what ever you are celebrating.

hugs Ria

Sparkle all the way....

I always loved this little girlie stamp from Oddball Art stamps. Hadley and her pet cloud. I didn't use the cloud as I needed the happy Hadley not the sad one hahahaha and I only use a part of her as I cut her out with the Gemini Stitched edge circle dies. And colored her with the Spectrum Noir Classiques markers and Enhanced with Colourblend pencils. I used a paper from the Sara's Enchanted Forest collection paperpad and just added the colored circle inside the moon on the page and added the leaves with the SN Artliner and made it all sparkle with the Clear Overlay Sparkl pen. The Sentiment stamp and die are from the Sara's Enchanted Christmas collection. Stamped with the Midas Silver inkpad and cut out of Glitter Silver cardstock from Crafter's Companion.

Have a beautifull day....

This is my card for today. I used the Crafter's Companion Stamp Let Love Grow and used the Spectrum Noir Finesse Waterproof Black inkpad to stamp it onto the Spectrum Noir Premium watercoloring paperpad.  If you have never used this paper for watercoloring than you have been missing out!!! it really is the best I have ever played with and I have been playing with loads of papers for watercoloring overtime.

I colored the stamp with the Spectrum Noir Aquamarkers and used a brush to water them out. For my background I used the Crafter's Companion white stampingcard and the Spectrum Noir Harmony water reactive inkpads. Midnight- Damson Wine- Plum Jam. I stamped the Let love grow stamp on the edges of the paper with the Spectrum Noir watermark inkpad and used Gold Embossing powder. I used the Velum around the card and used one of the sentiments from the stampset. I matted the background onto the Purple Metallic mirror cardstock from Crafter's Companion.
