Circle Card Thinlits

March 12, 2015

The Circle Card and Label Card Thinlits make impressive but easy cards – I use them frequently.

Stamp Pads: Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Marina Mist, Perfect Plum, Versamark
Stamps: By the Tide, Tag Talk

Shaving Foam & Emboss Resist Techniques

February 16, 2015

These are the other two cards from the previous weekend’s class.

I haven’t used the shaving foam technique for ages – it is a bit messy, but we all had fun with it. We used the 2014/2015 re-inkers for the shaving foam background.

Stamp Pads: Baked Brown Sugar, Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana
Stamps: Cupcake Party, Butterfly Basics
Other: Cupcake Builder punch, Small Scallop Stampin’ Trimmer Rotary Cutting Blade, Dazzling Diamonds, shaving foam, re-inkers – Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, Baked Brown Sugar, Pistachio Pudding, Crisp Cantaloup

We used the emboss resist technique on this next card (which I CASED from US demo Jane Graham):

Card: Whisper White, Baked Brown Sugar
Stamp Pads: Versamark, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Tangerine Tango, Crumb Cake, Baked Brown Sugar
Stamps: By the Tide, Gorgeous Grunge, Itty Bitty Banners
