Dream Big

 

This is a little reminder for anyone that needs it....Never be afraid to dream big :)

I do really love this Dream Big sentiment die.

I had a lot of fun with inks and the new Rainbow Beautiful Blender Brushes and the Cosy Sweater stencil when I was making this shaped card. 

For the main card itself I used a couple of the Circle Of Love dies. Then I blended Wilted Violet, Worn Lipstick and Fossilized Amber distress inks using the Beautiful Blender Brushes before then adding in some stenciled details using the Cosy Sweater stencil and pumice stone distress oxide. To give it that last touch of sparkle and texture in put a sprinkling of Nuvo drops all over it:) 

 I hope it brightens up your day today.

GDT for Sweet November

I can not tell you how excited I am to have been asked to be GDT for the incredible Sweet November for the release this week. I have had so much fun with the 2 new little mer tots. For this first card I have used the adorable June Mertot.

I decided to decoupage her as that is something I have not done with an image in ages and I love the way it make her look more 3D. I coloured her with my copics using the following colours:

Skin: E33, E21, E00 + a touch of R81

Hair: V06, R85, R81

Tail: G07, G14, YG03

Fish: Y38, Y02, Y000

As normal for me I had to cover her tail in spectrum noir crystal clear sparkle pen and glossy accents.

I made the background with distress oxide inks (Seedless preserves, Worn lipstick, Squeezed Lemonade) I then flicked some water over my inking and then sprayed some wilted violet distress oxide spray. The Dream big shadow sentiment is from time for tea and the smaller sentiment is from an old Stampin' up! stamp set.

Dream Big

I think I am addicted to this Dream big sentiment die from Time for Tea designs. It could make a great card all on it's own.

I made this inky background at the weekend. I used wilted violet distress oxide ink to make an ombre down the paper. Then I flicked it with some water before adding some wilted violet distress oxide spray over it. I coloured in this adorable super girl from the Heffy Doodle super dudes stamp set with spectrum noir tri-blends. I attached her with an action wobble and then added some nuvo drops all around the card for added dimension.

Green, Blue and purple scattered hearts

I am so in love with the dream big sentiment. I layered up the blue and purple cuts I did from the scattered hearts die and slightly off set them so that you can just see the purple peeking from under the blue. What better to go with this sentiment than a super cute unicorn from the unicorn in training stamp set.

Word art Wednesday - Anything goes

For this one I went tone on tone. I love the way this turned out. I used the green scattered hearts die cut and backed it on the same green card. I think the subtle texture this gives shows off this moo-vellous highland cow. I gave it a pop of colour with the Time for tea design rainbow brights essentials paper.
The frame is from the smile and scalloped frame die set. I cut two of the smaller frames and chopped the second one up to make some scalloped borders either side of the spotty design paper.
