Nature Walk

Guess what my new favorite stamp set is? Nature Walk!!! I finally got out my watercolor paper and learned how to color with markers and an aqua painter. Why was afraid of water coloring? All you do is stamp the images in staz-on, draw on a line of color with a marker, then move the color around the image with the aqua painter. This is my very first try at it! Well, I did throw away several butterflies. It was hard to come up with colors that look good on her wings. The other tools I used here were my Big Shot, lattice embossing folder, scallop square punch, 1 1/4 square punch, corner rounder punch, word window punch, modern label punch, boho blossom punch, hemp twine, pearl, glue dots, dimensionals, and subtle brads. The colors are old olive, riding hood red (marker), rose red (cs), tempting turquoise, daffodil delight, chocolate chip, and early espresso. It took me three days to design this one. So worth the time!

Just Believe

Just Believe is such a peaceful set. I punched a square out of white cardstock using the Scallop Square Punch. I laid that over my white cardstock and sponged Old Olive, Rose Red, then So Saffron on the side. Then I inked the flower stamp with Black Stazon and stamped over the sponged squares. I used the words from Three Little Words. I tied it with wide satin in Old Olive. Simple but elegant.

Wicked Cool

Here is Wicked Cool again. This time I used Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, and Basic Black. The images are stamped with  Black Stazon and punched with the Square Scallop Punch. I sponged them with Razzleberry to add a touch of color.  I added one of our new Glitter Brads in the center of the images. These brads are very sparkly and much larger than the regular brads. The Old Olive piece has been embossed with the Spider Web using the Big Shot. I stamped spider webs on the Razzleberry base with Black Stazon.

Trendy Trees

I love this color combination! It is BLUSHING BRIDE, PEAR PIZZAZZ, AND EARLY ESPRESSO. The COLOR COACH has this combo as well as hundreds of others. Give it a try! I used CLASSIC inks in BLUSHING BRIDE, PEAR PIZZAZZ, AND EARLY ESPRESSO. The other accesoories are: PEARLS, BLUSHING BRIDE RIBBON,  the SQUARE SCALLOP PUNCH, the STAMP-A-MA-JIG, BEAUTIFUL WINGS AND THE BIG SHOT, the MODERN LABEL PUNCH, and DIMENSIONALS. We will be making this card next weekend for sure.
