Scrappy Scrappy

Hi crafty friends :)

I am sharing my DT post on Kat Scrappiness blog --- where I made some tags using my brand new scrappy supplies --- the yummy-licious Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks. I wanted them for the longest time and finally got them and never regretted it! They are just so so beautiful and the "oxide" effect is truly gorgeous.

ScrappyScrappy: Distress Oxide Tags with Kat Scrappiness #scrappyscrappy #katscrappiness #timholtz #oxideink #distressoxide #watercolor #mixedmedia #nuvodrop #unitystampco #stamp #stamping #diecut #ginamariedesigns

First, I wanted to test the oxide inks on different cardstocks, so I cut 2 tags from watercolor cardstock and textured cardstock using the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Scalloped Nesting Tag dies.

I first swiped the ink pad on my craft mat, then spritzed it with my Tim Holtz distress sprayer to get the droplets. Then I smooshed my cardstock on the inks -- drying and spritzing as I go -- to get the "oxide" effect. Once it's all dried up, I stamped the sentiment. I also cut out the heart using the Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Heart dies and added some Metallic Bright Gold Nuvo Crystal Drops.

What I noticed is, the inks blended better on the watercolor cardstock and gave a more opaque look. Where else, the textured cardstock did not blend too well and gave a brighter colored look. So, it really depends on which look you prefer, but I like them both :)

Then I also tested the inks on kraft paper. The inks turned out beautifully on darker colored paper and although it looks chalky, it doesn't feel chalky to the touch. I cut out some shapes using the Gina Marie Designs Stitched Sky dies to decorate my tag and also added some Nuvo Glitter drops in White Blizzard. I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Onyx Black Pigment ink.

So, if you've not tried out the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks, you should! It is so much fun and it gives such great effects on your card/tags/crafty projects.

Happy Easter!

Today is a good day to celebrate the Lord, so why not let's shake off all the stress and relax by making something fun.

I made a shaker card using the JGW Bunny Race kit on the SVG Attic blog today.

ScrappyScrappy: Easter Bunny shaker card with SVG Attic #svgattic #scrappyscrappy #jgwbunnyrace #easter #card #cardmaking #papercraft #shakercard #nuvojeweldrop #glitter

You can turn this file into a shaker treat card -- where there is a perforated part to the back to get out all the candy from his tummy. (hehe). But I made it into a shaker card instead and filled his tummy with pretty sequin flowers.

I also added some glitter and Nuvo jewel drops to add to the bling, and psstttt... even gave him some eyelashes! (haha)

Hello! I am up over at the Kat Scrappiness blog, sharing my first process video for Kat Scrappiness. Easter is just around the corner, so why not make a fun Easter card right?

Here’s a fun bunny card I made using the Playful Bunnies Stamp Set by Mudra and Easter Eggs Stencil.

I also die cut the cardstock using the NEW Stitched Fancy Scalloped Rectangle Dies by Kat Scrappiness and decorated the card using Easter Egg Hunt Sequin Mix; which by the way is SO SO pretty!

Here is the process video on how I made this card.

I am loving this graduation "You did Good" kit. There is also a gal-version "Graduation Wishes".

I thought it would be fun to give him a funky graduation gown by foiling it up using Prima rub-on foil and Thermoweb DecoFoil adhesive. I also added some Tim Holtz distress inks at the bottom of the card to ground it.

For my next card, I wanted to do something simple and FUN-ny :)

The "Sorry it stinks" set is just perfect together with my Sweet Stamp Shop Poop Washi.

I also used Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Rectangle die to cut the stamp out.

Happy Saturday!

It's no April Fool's joke today when I am telling you I have a NEW VIDEO for you. Yups! Using the beautiful Unity Stamp's April 2017 Sentiment Kit "Girl Truly"

I thought hey, why not "paint" some flowers using some glitter?

Wanna know how I do it?

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] Ombre Glitter Flowers with Unity Stamp #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #card #cardmaking #ombre #glitter #flowers #ombreflowers #congratscard #quicktipvideo #youtube #papercraft #craft

So if you have tons of glitter (like me), this technique would be great to de-stash some of your glitter supply! :) All you need is glue (I am using Glossy Accents) and just sprinkle away! :)

I stamped the sentiment on some vellum to still show off the glittered parts.

Now, go on and sprinkle some glitter love onto your cards!

Have a wonderful weekend.
