Now for some inspiration!!!
I just love how this card turned out!!
I started by stamping the floral image from Craftangles 'Beautiful Bloom Border' stamp set in black and heat embossing it with a clear embossing powder.
I then watercoloured the background using warm fall colours.
Once the background was dry, I partially embossed the background using Cuttlebug 'swirls' embossing powder.
I finished the card with a sentiment from Winnie and Walter (which I in two colours, using the Misti), and sequins from Craftangles and A1Craft supply.
For my tag, I started with a tag die cut from MFT.
I then stamped the sentiment from Winnie and Walter (using Tim Holtz distress ink)
repeatedly to create a background.
To create the focal image,
I die cut the square stamp using a Cuttlebug die,
and then stamped the floral image (source unknown) on it.
After colouring and distressing using Tim Holtz distress inks,
I added some Craftangles sequins and some green ribbon to finish the tag.

Hello everyone!
I am so happy to be back to share my projects here.
I made a thank you card and tag in keeping with this month's theme.
I have used the 'Kind Soul' stamp set from Wplus9 on both the card and tag. This is the first time I inked this gorgeous stamp..I'm not sure if I have done it justice with my colouring!
For the card, I first stamped the image in gold and heat embossed it.
I coloured the image using a combination of Zig Clean Colour Real brush markers
and Prisma color pencils.
The 'Thanks' is a word die from Winnie and Walter,
and the rest of the sentiment is from
Paper TreyInk.
I cut out the word multiple times using pink cardstock and layered them to create a 3D look.
I used a manila shipping tag to create my thank you tag.
I first stamped, and heat embossed the same Wplus9 image
and then coloured with markers and colour pencils.
I then inked the background with distress oxide inks and sprayed some water on it.
I had a great time creating these!
I hope my projects inspire you to create your own and share with us!
I can't wait to see what you create.

How did you keep the ink out from the white areas of the stamped border when using the distressed ink of fall colors?
ReplyDeleteI stamped and heat embossed the border and then watercoloured around it carefully.
DeleteIf you want to distress then you will have to stamp and create a mask using masking paper, which you can then place on the stamped border and then do your inking. Hope this helps.
Fabulous makes from the design team, thank you for a great challenge.
