Avery Elle … Pegasus Duo

Hello! This week on the Avery Elle Blog I’m featuring the cuter-than-all-that Pegasus Duo stamp set. These wee guys compliment Heather’s other little Be A Unicorn stamp set so well – can’t wait to pair them up together. I thought I’d create a little night sky using the little star cluster stamp from the set and one of the sparkle stamps from Retro Ornaments. I created a moon by just doodling some “craters” on a white Double Pierced Circle die cut using a grey Copic marker. The Pegasuses (Pegasi??) were just coloured with Copics and then nestled into some clouds I created using the Cloud Border die set!

Water Colouring with Distress Oxides and a video!

Hello – I’m popping in with a rare post that has nothing to do with a design team!! I don’t often get time to make cards other than for the design teams I’m on (Avery Elle and Simon Says Stamp) but today this card is a “just for fun” card using a stamp set called Hello Lovely by Concord & 9th that I’ve been coveting for AGES!!

At the same time as getting this set I also got other happy mail in the form of my latest order from Simon Says Stamp and in it there were some DISTRESS OXIDE INKS! Yes, been dying to get hold of these since I saw them at CHA in January. So anyway, here’s a couple of cards I’ve made with this stamp set. The first uses the Distress Oxides as a water colouring medium (LOVE) and on the second I kept it simple and coloured just part of the design using a couple of Zig Clean Colour Real Brush Markers. I even created a video too!!

Thanks C&9th

Simon says … Use More Than One Die cut/punch with Memory Box

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the last week’s challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

More Than One Die Cut/Punch

This week we are showcasing Memory Box. You don’t have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

So this week I’ve been playing with WOW! heat reactive foil! I wanted a subtle yet striking background for my Memory Box Stitched Heart Trio die cuts so pulled out an older set from Avery Elle called Brushed – and stamped one of the brush strokes three times in Versamark Ink. I then used the WOW! Bonding powder and sprinkled it over the stamped images much as you would embossing powder. When you then heat it it goes tacky and whilst it’s still hot, you add over the foil. I burnished it a little with a bone folder and then peeled back the foil to reveal the silver design! For the rest of the card I simply die cut the hearts from cream and Doll Pink card stock and layered them up alternatively. I added them to my card and finished off with a few spots of Silver Moondust Nuovo drops. The sentiment, which is also foiled is from one of my favourite go-to die sets from Avery Elle, Sentimental.
