Plant Your Dreams

Morning everyone, hope you are all well and enjoying some of the sunshine we have been having.

Today I have a card for you along with step by steps on a YouTube Video, video below.

I have also included close up photos of my card so that you can see all the layered detail.

This is a nice simple card to create and I love how all the layers are clearly visible.

The close up phtots really highlight all the layers and you can clearly see each layer and I love the tone on tone stamping too.

Below is the step by step video.

Do Small Things with Great Love

Welcome, today I am showcasing my Blossomed Dreams Stamp Set #123 from AALLandCreate. All the new products are available from our stockists which you can find listed HERE.

I began by creating a background with Distress Oxides Worn Lipstick and Hickory Smoke. I applied the inks one by one to my non-stick craft sheet and then spritzed the ink with water and mopped up the beads of ink with my card. I repeated this process until I was happy with the coverage of ink.

I then did a monoprint using Autour de Mwa's Lotza Dotz Stencil #39, applying Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink to my stencil, spritzing with water and then placing the stencil, ink side down and dabbing the back of the stencil with a piece of kitchen towel. Remove the stencil and then dry the ink with a Heat Tool. I added dimension to each of my flowers by adding a second flower head to the first stamping. I then painted each flower head with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink.

I then incorporated one of Tim Holtz metal embellishments and added black twine for added texture and I also included my sentiment from the same stamp set.

A few delicate splatters of black paint add a further layer of interest to my design.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x

These are the products I incorporated in my card today and are now available from our stockists.

Artful Blooms

Welcome, today I have a card for you using my A6 Natures Garden stamp set, combined with my A4 Layered Grunge Stamp from AALLandCreate, with a touch of stencilling using Kassa's stencil. You can find a list of our stockists HERE.

I created a background using my A4 Layered Grunge stamp, inking the stamp with Distress Oxides Candied Apple and Faded Jeans.

I added a touch of stencilling to the background using Kassa's stencil, which adds a touch of texture to my backdrop.

I coloured a piece of card with Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink and then stamped my flower heads onto the coloured card, cut out and added to my background.

I added a few delicate splatters of black paint and also added my 'garden' sentiment.

A touch of hand stitching adds further texture to my design.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Below are the stamps and stencil I used in this project.

Artful Bloom

Hi and welcome, today I have a card showcasing a couple of my stamps from AALLandCreate, my A4 Layered Grunge Stamp and my Natures Garden Stamp Set. A list of stockists can be found HERE.

I began by adding Distress Oxide Inks to my background, beginning with Squeezed Lemonade, swiping the inkpad across my non-stick craft sheet, spritzing with water and then mopping up the beads of ink with my card. I repeated the same process with Picked Raspberry. I repeated this process a couple of times until I was happy with my background and then dried with a heat tool.

I then inked my A4 Layered Grunge stamp with Black Archival Ink and then stamped ART onto the inked background. I added some white highlights with a white gel pen.

I added one of my flowers to the background and also added more layered stamping using my A4 stamp set. I also incorporated a wooden heart for added dimension.

Some delicate white splatters of paint lift the whole design.

I added a touch of stitching, adding a cross stitch to the stem of my flower. This adds further texture to the design.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Below are the stamp sets used in my card.
