Smooshing CAS Card...

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!
I have a quick post for ya today!

I decided to make a Quick Smooshing Technique Birthday Card --

I grabbed a piece of watercolor paper, a couple of
Distress Oxide inks in Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick,
and Twisted Citron, and the Cherry Blossom Stamp set
by Raisin Boat 

I stamped my Cherry Blossom image onto the watercolor paper 
with some versamark ink then poured some
Ultra Fine White Embossing Powder over it -
I then heated it all up -

Then I added the Distress Oxides to a clear block
and sprayed it with some water
I laid it right on top of my embossed image
and I let it sit there for a few minutes to
get the colors soaked into my paper 

Once I lifted it off, I heat set my paper again
Then I added some flicks of the pink & green inks
onto my paper to give it a splattered look
I heat set it one more time to make sure everything
was dry before putting it through
my Gemini Jr. with the Stitched Rectangle Die

Once it was complete I added the Celebrate
Sentiment in some Memento Tuxedo Black ink
and adhered it to a piece of White Fun Foam
for added Dimension -

Of course, it needed some Sparkle so
I grabbed a couple of Clear Adhesive Gems
and it was ready to go!!

Cherry Blossom (10149-Z)

Flourishing Thoughts (10271-z)

SumMore Fun Mood Board Challenge #31

Hello & Happy Friday Everyone!

Today... starts another FUN Challenge over at: 

SumMore Fun Stamps

 YAY! I know how you

guys enjoy a good Challenge!

Our Mood Board is - 

 You can use the theme, pictures, or color combo
 You don't have to use
a stamp from SumMore Fun if you don't have one!


All the rules for this fun challenge are RIGHT HERE!

Here's what I created to inspire you --

As you can tell... I went with the Color combo & flowers

The sentiment I'm using could work for a Wedding Or Birthday Card -

I plan to use it for a Birthday card of course (I always need those)

The Stamp set I chose for my card is the

Cherry Blossom (10149-z) Stamp set from Raisin Boat

I'm also using an Assortment of Memento Dew Drop Inks

That Sabrina carries in her store - I hadn't realized how

vibrant these inks were and now I love using them

I'm using - Summer Sky, Rich Cocoa, Lilac Posies, Bamboo Leaves

and Desert Sand

My sentiment stamp is from the Flourishing Thoughts (10271-z) Stamp Set 

Which I LOVE to use ALL the time!!! So many beautiful Sentiments

in this set keep me picking it up time & time again!

  

The (Celebrate) Word Die is cut out

4x's for added Dimension and I used my

Sheer Shimmer Sparkle Spritz on the Word and

the background - It really Sparkles in person!

Since I really wanted my floral background to shine

I used a piece of Vellum and folded it behind the white

Cardstock and adhered those 2 pieces together

Then I added a Piece of Fun Foam to that and attached

it to my Dark Espresso card base

I added some Ice Cube Jewels from Lucy's Cards

to tie everything together and now it's ready to

be mailed off!!!

Just a reminder that if you play along, the Random
winner wins a $20 Gift Certificate to the 
SumMore Fun Stamps Store AND if you use a
SumMore Fun Stamp on your project 
 you'll get a $40 Gift Certificate!!
This is such a wonderful prize!!

I hope you guys can join us --

 I would LOVE to see what you create!
