I'm smiling

                                              Hello all I'm here with a card for you today.

Stamps Used:

Pieces of Calligraphy 

Pieces of Architecture

Eye Chart square

I am smiling saying

This was a fun card to do and it's really simple. I used a blue Distress Oxide ink. (the smear better). Also if your stamping isn't perfect even better. 

I started with the Pieces of Calligraphy  circle stamp and I stamped it with the oxide ink and then I took a blender and blended it over the stamp (basically smearing the ink). I did that 3 times around the card. I repeated that same step for the whole background with all the different stamps. 

When I needed more ink instead of going to the inkpad I just took it off the stamp. 

I then stamped I am smiling saying on white cardstock and added to the middle of the card. 

I hope you will join the challenge here.

Movie Nite

 Good Morning Cathy here with snacks for the movie nite.

Stamps Used:

Sherlock

Oz witch

Alfred Hitchcock 

I started out with a Kraft fry box. I used distress oxide sprays on it to color the whole thing. I dried it with a heat tool so I could move on to the next part. 

I took some texture paste and mixed some black gesso into it. Grab your favorite stencil and put the paste through. I did it on the front and back. Set aside to dry. 

 

I then worked on coloring the images I was going to use to decorate the box. I stamped out all the ones I wanted and then I used my scan-n-cut to cut them all out.

Next I colored them all with copic markers and decided where I wanted them.

I put Sherlock on the front. I then used a computer printed saying for movie nite.

I used glue and tape to hold them down over the texture paste.  

For the back I stuck Alfred Hitchcock and Oz witch I also have some texture paste on the back. 

I stuck some candy and a package of microwave popcorn in the fry box. 

I hope you like my take on Movie Mania.

Let Coffee choose

 Hello I'm here with a card for you today using Lost Coast stamps.

Stamps used:

Praying angel

Pieces of Calligraphy 

Power of coffee

I just started playing with some distress oxide sprays and a distress spray stain. I just knew I wanted to use the new distress mica stain. You can't see it in the photo but it is the gray in the background. I sprayed them directly onto the paper and then took another piece of paper and placed it on top so I get 2 for 1 with that. 

 Next I stamped Praying angel in black ink on it. After that I stamped Pieces of Calligraphy in gray ink around it.

Lastly I stamped Power of coffee saying on black ink and white heat embossed it. I cut it apart and added to the card. I felt the saying went perfectly with the image.

                                                            

I hope you will join the fun challenge.
