Hello Poppy

Hi there,

I created this flower tag using the Karten-Kunst Scribble Poppies die set:

• cut out a Karten-Kunst Tag from smooth white cardstock
• cut out the Karten-Kunst Scribble Poppy from black and from white cardstock
• color the white parts with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers and puzzle them into the black outline
• add some splatters with Art Graf Watercolor Graphite
• stamp the sentiment from the Karten-Kunst Aus der Schreibmaschine 3 set with Versamark onto a strip of black cardstock and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
• thread a strand of twine through the hole of the tag

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

STAMPlorations Clear Stickers

Hi there,

the most talented Shery from STAMPlorations has added the new Clear Stickers to the shop. Here are some creations showcasing this fabulous product:

• stamp three mugs from the STAMPlorations What's brewing set with Versafine Vintage Sepia onto a panel of watercolor paper
• color the images and the background with Ecoline Brush Pens and a watercolor brush
• add the sentiment from the STAMPlorations Just Caffeinate Clear Sticker set
• add a strip of brown foiled cardstock and of striped patterned paper to the bottom of the panel before adhering it to the cardbase

On my next project I used PanPastels on my Gelli Plate:

• apply PanPastel through the ARTplorations Lattice stencil onto a Gelli Plate
• use a brayer to coat that pastel layer with white acrylic paint and take your print
• cut out a tag from the print using one of the CUTplorations Manila Tags
• adhere a sticker from the STAMPlorations Free Spirit sticker set
• add some more texture with the help of the scrip stamp from the STAMPlorations Mixed Media Elements set and Archival Ink Watering Can
• grunge up the edges with Art Graf Aquarell-Grafit
• dye a piece of torn seam binding with Distress Stain (Spun Sugar, Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac) and thread it through the hole of the tag

On my third project I used one of the STAMPlorations Coffee Time Stickers:

• add color to a piece of watercolor paper with Distress Ink (Tea Dye, Ground Espresso) and water from a Mini Mister
• add Pearlized Water droplets for extra shimmer
• adhere a sticker from the STAMPlorations Coffee Time sticker set
• use the ARTplorations Dots 'n' Beans stencil, Distress Ink Ground Espresso and a Mini Ink Blending Tool to create a background on a kraft cardbase

For my last project I used some pretty packaging to create an ATC:

• cover a piece of ATC-sized Packaging with white gesso
• grunge up the edges with Art Graf Aquarell-Grafit
• adhere a sticker from the STAMPlorations Free Spirit sticker set
• add some more texture using the dots from the STAMPlorations Mixed Media Grunge set and Archival Ink Watering Cam
• as final embellishments add some of the Nuvo Dream Frops Love Potion

I hope you love this new product line as much as I do.

Hugs,
