Remarkable You

The REMARKABLE YOU CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET is so fun and flexible.  I used the leaves to stamp CRUMB CAKE CLASSIC STAMPIN' PAD on CRUMB CAKE 8-1/2" X 11" CARD STOCK for a soft texture.  Then I embossed it with COPPER STAMPIN' EMBOSS POWDER.  Using the aqua painter I inked up the lotus and stem.  The sentiment is from HERE FOR YOU CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET.  Get your items for this card at www.kris.stampinup.net

Colorful Seasons

Just Breathe...  It has been a summer that I have had to remind myself to do this often.  I used the   COLORFUL SEASONS PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET and SEASONAL LAYERS THINLITS DIES.  This is one set that you must have all season long.  It is a top seller from the 2017-18 Stampin' Up! catalog.  I created the look of grass using the DAISY DELIGHT PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET.  It gives a sense of movement to the card.  To create the background grab a baby wipe and fold it in fourths.  With your re inkers add a few drops of CRUMB CAKE CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILLMARINA MIST CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILL, and BERMUDA BAY CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILL, swipe it across some watercolor paper and you have your beach scene.  Go to www.kris.stampinup.net

Oh So Eclectic

The first thing I saw when I took the OH SO ECLECTIC CLEAR-MOUNT BUNDLE out of the box was poppies.  I had to make a card with red and black and red poppies.  I love that the stamp set gives  a forgiving watercolor look.  I did a very light watercolor wash, with Soft Sky and the Aqua pen, in the background to add a little dimension.
