Ink on 3 Blog Hop + Giveaway - Dogwood Flowers Release


Hey Everyone! 

Welcome to another Blog Hop for Ink on 3. Today's hop showcases the newly released Dogwood Flowers Stamp and Die set.
More details on the hop and giveaway at the end of the post!

Card Details



For my card today I began by stamping out the dogwood flowers using the Juicy Ink on bristol paper then heat setting it with a white embossing powder. Two of the images were stamped onto the card panel that I used as the card front and the other two image I then die cut out to layer.

I then did some quick watercoloring using a handful of Zig markers and a water brush. Once everything was colored in I arranged the flowers to make look like a cluster of Dogwood flowers on a tree.

To finish the card, I added the sentiment strips that I stamped onto black paper to the bottom left of the card. And for some added bling I added some sparkling sequins and glossy accents to the center of the flowers.

Hello Fabulous - Ink on 3's Dogwood Flower Preview


Hello Friends!

This week Ink on 3 will be releasing another beautiful little floral stamp - the Dogwood Flower Stamp and Die Set. 

For today's card, I began by stamping out the Dogwood flowers on each corner of my card panel with Blackout ink. I then colored them in with Copic markers and die cut the panel using a stitched rectangle die.

Next, I stamped out Fabulous sentiment onto the card front using Blackout ink and Die cut the Hello from black cardstock. To add some shine to the hello I used Juicy ink then covered it with clear embossing powder and heat set it. Repeated that a few more times to create a thicker layer.

I then finished off the card by adding some crystals to the card front and adding some glitter to the centers.

Hope you like my Dogwood Flower creation today.

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Spellbinders - Hello Cards. Indie Collection. Blog Hop + Giveaways (Now Closed)


Hello Friends, and welcome to the Spellbinders Indie Collection Blog Hop + Giveaways 
(more on the hop + giveaways at the end of this post) 

Today I have a few cards to share with you featuring some stamps and dies from the Indie Collection. This collection is exclusive to and only available to select online and independent retailers. Click → here for a list of shops!

Card Details

For this first card, I began by die cutting out the Layered Oak Tree from watercolor paper. Once my pieces were all cut I used Mijello Misson Gold watercolors to add layers of color to each piece. Once dry I assembled and glued the tree together.

Before adhering the tree to the card front I painted what looks like a shadow from the tree on the card front and stamped out the "my friend"  sentiment from the Hello Expressions Stamp and Die Set. I then die cut the hello from the set using vellum for the shadow layer. That's pretty much it for this CAS friendship card. I left the inside blank as this card could be used for a variety of different occasions.

This next card features the Happy Weather Etched Dies from the collection.

 Once again I began by die cutting the Happy Weather pieces out of watercolor paper. To create what appears to be the rainbow I used the Pierced Circles Etched Dies and stacked the circles towards the left the largest die, and then cut the die cuts in half.

I then painted the images again using Migelo Mission Gold Watercolors and adhered them to the card front. I used white and black gel pens to add details to the sun and clouds little faces. To add a little more dimension to the cloud's eyes I used some black crystals and added a white dot to the centers. 

For my sentiment, I once again used the hello die, die cut and stacked 3 layers and then used clear embossing powder to add some shine to the top layer. I then used the Sunshine stamp to complete the sentiment. Added a few more sequins for additional rain like sparkle.
