Good evening everyone...hope you had a great day!!! I got to do a little stamping today and I even cleaned up my mess...yikes!!! I must be sick...anyway...
The Ways to Use it challenge on Splitcoast was quite a challenge today....to use variegated colors (colors that flow form one color to the other) either on the paper, ribbon, thread, yarn...you name it!
The background was created by stamping images from Clear Dollar Stamps Under the Sea set with Versamark and embossing with clear ep. Ranger Ink Broken China, Peeled Paint, and Dusty Concord were then sponged over the embossed images and a solution of Perfect Pearls and water was sprayed over the background for a shimmery effect. The fish and shells from the same set were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black, colored with copics, cutout, and attached with foam tape. Ribbon and bling for the bubbles finish it off.
Recipe:
Stamps: Clear Dollar Stamps Under the Sea
Paper: White, Elegant Eggplant, Baja Breeze
Ink: Versamark, Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Ribbon, Rhinestones, Perfect Pearls, Clear ep, Foam Tape
I bought some Sugar Nellies a few months ago and finally had a chance to ink this sweet little stamp. I colored the image with copics and drew the floor ...don't look too close because it isn't too straight. It must be a real old house...heeheehee!!
A friend of mine is having her second baby so this will be the perfect card to welcome her new baby!!!!
Shear ribbon and Primas are the finishing touches. I tried to figure out how to add a little bling but no luck....at least I got the ribbon on there!!!!
Recipe:
Stamps: Sugar Nellie called Big Sister
Paper: White, Barely Banana, Lovely Lilac, Stampin Up dp
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Copics, Nestabilities, Ribbon, Primas
Thanks for coming by tonight...hope your day was really special!!!

Hi Joan, far too long since I last visited you and I've been having a catch up on all your fabulous cards which has been so enjoyable! These two are just gorgeous, I love the background you made for the challenge, such pretty colours and perfect for the under sea design. The sn image is so sweet and so beautifully coloured, I love the floor you made too, I think it looks perfect and of course the prettiest ribbon to go with scene. I hope you're well and it looks like you're having a lot of fun with the Rubbernecker ladies which is great, it looks like a laugh a minute, crafting and fun, you can't beat it! Hugs to you gf, Chris :)
