Wreath Full of Posies Tag

Hi everyone! I want to share a tag that I hadn't got around to sharing that I created for ColorBox. I had actual started this tag several months ago. If I ink up my glass tray and I have leftover inks I just grab a blank tag and place it in the mixture. If it isn't covered I continue to place the tag into any leftover ink until I have it completely covered.


The tag has a mix of the following inks on it: Wildberry, Sunshine and Frog Blends Inks. I inked the Simple Dots Rollgraph with Tahiti Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink and rolled onto the tag.


I inked the Wreath Wood Stamp with Wicked Black Archival Dye Ink and stamped onto a piece of Watercolor PaperI started by inking a glass tray with the following Dyestress Blendable Dye Inks, adding water and painting the following parts of the stamped wreath: Inchworm leaves and shade with Moss. Flowers-AsterMulberryBumble BeeSalmon and Princess and let dry. I placed the doily stamp from the Cookies Clear Stamps onto the MISTI Stamping Tool inked the stamp with Wicked Black Archival Dye Ink and stamped onto a piece of watercolor paper. Next I inked the glass tray with Mint Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink  added water and painted the stamped doily. Once dry I fussy cut the doily out and adhered to tag.


I fussy cut the wreath out adhered to the tag, added sequins and gems to the flowers on the wreath. I finished by adhering a scrap of lace and ric rac to the bottom of the tag. I also added three glossy dots above ric rac and a seam binding bow to top of tag. As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Blooming Birthday Folded Card

Hi everyone! I am back again with another fun project that I created using Eileen Hull's newest Gift Card Folder and Label 2 Diecut but I turned it into a fun little card.


I started this project by placing a piece of White Chipboard on top of the Gift Card Folder and Label #2 Diecut, running it through the Diecut Machine and I folded all four sides of the diecut down. I inked a glass tray with Melon and Wildberry Blends Inks, added water to each ink and placed the diecut in the ink mixture. I covered completely on both sides of diecut. Once I had it covered I removed and let dry.


I placed each flap of diecut into the Damask 2 Embossing Folder and run through the diecut machine. I cut a strip of patterned cardstock 1/2"x8", wrapped around the folded card and adhered the ends together to create a belly band. Next I placed the heart stamp from the Bible Clear Stamps onto the MISTI Stamping Tool, inked with Wicked Black Archival Dye Ink and stamped onto a piece of Watercolor Paper  I inked two Art Daubers with Salmon and Princess Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink and inked the center of the heart with Salmon and the outer edges of the heart with Princess. I fussy cut only the stamped heart out.


I inked the glass tray with Caribbean Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink, added water to the ink and painted a scrap of watercolor paper. Once dry I inked the Simple Dots Rollagraph with Tahiti Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink and rolled onto the painted scrap of watercolor paper. I punched a circle from paper and adhered to the belly band. I cut a "v" in a small scrap of decorated watercolor paper and adhered to the circle punch on the belly band along with stamped heart, flower and a leaf from my stash. I also added a gem to center of flower.


I placed the Blooming Birthday stamp and the leaves stamp from the Blooming Floral Diecuts and Stamps onto the MISTI Stamping Tool and inked both with Wicked Black Archival Dye Ink and stamped onto a piece of watercolor paper. 


I placed the matching diecut over the stamped sentiment and leaves, secured both with washi tape and run through the diecut machine. I inked the glass tray with Inchworm Dyestress Blendable Dye Ink, added water and painted the stamped leaves image. I adhered the sentiment, stamped leaves and flower which was from my stash and added sequins and a gem to center of flower. There you have it a small card that can be added to a birthday present. I think I might try and do some different theme cards just for the fun of it. As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Autumn Foliage Planner Clip

Hi everyone! I am back with a planner clip I created for Momenta! With Autumn only a couple of days away I decided I wanted to create a planner clip in a Fall theme for my planner.


I started with one of the binder clips from the The Explorer Journal Binder Clips.


I placed a piece of 5/8" stretch elastic around an ink pen and the edges of the binder clip before cutting. Since ink pens are different sizes I didn't include the measurement. You do want the elastic to be a little snuggle so your ink pen won't fall out of the clip.


I adhered each side of the elastic to either side of the clip.


I cut two piece of cardstock from the Metallic Ink Paper Pad slightly larger...height wise and adhered the bottom of each piece to either side of the clip. I cut on either side of the elastic the cardstock and folded the middle piece under.


I adhered the "tabs" of the leftover cardstock that was cut over the backside of each side of the clip.


I cut a couple of leaves from crinoline fabric using the Leaves, Acorn and Wood Grain Cut and Emboss Templates. Also if you didn't know Momenta has a new Diecut Machine too. 😊


I watercolored the leaves with an assortment of orange, yellow and brown inks.


I adhered a piece of ric rac and gems to one side of the clip. I added one leaf to the corner of the clip, a couple of sequins, thread and cording to the center of the leaf.


I clipped the planner clip to one of my notebooks and then added an ink pen. 


It's a perfect and stylish way to keep my ink pen handy. 
If you aren't following Momenta on their social media pages please do so! You can find them on FacebookInstagram and Twitter.
As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Flower Baby Layout

Hi everyone! I'm back today after being gone on vacation! My husband and I spent an extra long weekend at the beach. It was fun but I have to admit that it was as hot if not hotter there in Panama City than at home. All we wanted to do was stay either in the ocean or pool the whole time we were outside...not that was a bad thing to do.😎
I want to share a layout I created from a photo of "Little Miss" when she was around a year old. 


I started by inking my glass tray with Melon and Sunshine Blends Inks , adding water to each ink and placing a 8"x8" piece of Watercolor Paper ( that I cut down to size) into the ink mixture. Once I had the paper covered I removed and let dry.


I adhered a paper doily with adhesive to the watercolor paper. 


I then placed the Swirl Dot Art Screen onto the watercolor paper and applied Matte Extra Heavy Gel with a Spatula . I removed the art screen and let dry. I inked three scraps of leftover watercolor paper with a mix of water and Sunshine Blends Ink (2 scraps of paper) and Leaf Blends Ink (1 scrap of paper). Once all were dry I adhered two of the watercolor papers horizontally to layout.


 Next I inked the glass tray with Wildberry Blends Ink, added water to the ink, loaded a paint brush with the ink mixture and splattered the watercolor paper. Also I added a piece of ric rac to the watercolor paper.


I inked the Botanical Mini Molding Mat with Leaf Blends Ink and stamped onto the inked Sunshine Blends scrap of watercolor paper. 


Once dry I adhered to the back corner of photo and glued both slightly off center of watercolor paper. 


I placed Crinoline Fabric on the flowers and leaves diecuts from the Book Mark, Tag and PocketJournaling Card, Flowers and Leaves Diecuts and Bookplate, Hinges and Label Diecuts and cut out one set of flowers and a leaf. I inked the glass tray with Wildberry, Frog and Sunshine Blends Inks, added water and placed the flowers in Wildberry and the leaf in Frog and one small flower into the Sunshine ink mixtures. Once completely covered I removed and let dry.


I add a brad to center of the flowers, adhered the leaf to back of the flower and to the lower corner of photo. Next I added several loops of green metallic thread to flower. I also added another flower to the top corner of the photo and adhered sequin to center of the flower. 


I inked a chipboard letter "B" with Sunshine Blends Ink an let dry. Next I inked the letter completely with Top Boss Embossing Stamp Pad Clear, applied Opalescent Embossing Powder to letter and set with a Heat Tool. I added a Foam Dots to back of letter and placed on the corner of the photo.


Even though the quality wasn't the greatest when I printed out this photo ( I just couldn't throw it away) I still think the layout turned out pretty cute! As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.
