Have a marvellous Day

Hello crafters

How are you all?
I'm back on the Bee Crafty blog today with another make using the fabulous
Light Tomorrow  stamp set. I do love the versatility this stamp offers xx

Products used :
Light Tomorrow stamp set
Trio of Butterflies
Everyday Sentiments
White ink
Transfer foil
Gold Acrylic Paint
White gel pen

I stamped the Light Bulb in white ink then masked it off

The Butterflies were also stamped in white ink, ensuring parts of the stamped image was over the masked Light Bulb. This gives the effect of flying behind the Bulb

I used a white gel pen to add a butterfly trail

Gold Acrylic Paint was used to colour in the bulb working from light in the centre, getting darker towards the outer edges 

This was matted onto gold mirri then adhered to card blank to complete

Thankyou for popping by and I'll be back again soon

Have a marvellous day

Hello everyone xx

I'm on the Bee Crafty blog today with several makes using the fabulous pen and ink style  stamps.
Love the versatility of these, using them in part or as a whole.
I recently purchased a Gelli Plate and these stamps are absolutely perfect to use. However all my back grounds can be achieved, with similar effect, using the Oxides,  stencils and stamps.

Products used:
Time Measure stamp
Ledger Measure stamp
Film Strip and Circles Texture stamp
Everyday Sentiments
Stripes and Triangle inkable
Dinkables
Distress Oxide
Gelli Plate

For this sample I made the background with Distress Oxides, Stripes inkable, and the Film Strip stamp set. I used my Gelli plate to achieve this particular effect, although you can create a similar effect without one.

The Ledger Measure stamp was then stamped with Distress Oxides and the sentiment in Black Onyx Versafine xx

Another gelli plate background. This time using stripes and dots Dinkable, film strip and circles stamp set, with the Distress Oxides.

The main focal stamp, the Ledger Measure stamp, was also stamped in the Oxides and then the sentiment in Black Onyx to complete.

The last gelli plate sample was made with the Oxides, Metal Alpha Dinkable, Triangles Inkable and texture stamp from the Film Strip and Circles stamp set. The focal image is one of the Ledger Measure stamps. 

I hope you enjoyed looking through today's makes and can see how versatile these fabulous stamp sets are.

For You...

Hello everyone

I'm on the Bee Crafty blog today with two makes using the absolutely beautiful Sunflower. A stunning hand drawn flower that stamps so brilliantly

Also used :
Everyday Sentiments XL 1
Distress Oxides 
Dinkables
Sparkle pens
Bark Positive stamp
Foil

For the background I used my sparkle pens, a large brush and water. Creates a beautiful blended rainbow effect which you can also get using Distress Inks and Oxides
I stamped random bits of Bark and blended Distress Oxides randomly through Honeycomb stencil. I used a fine line pen to add some effect to the honeycomb shapes
Using a water brush I bleached out a sun
The Sunflower and sentiment was stamped in black onyx versafine and I added a few white highlights with a gel pen

I applied Distress Oxides direct to the stamp, spritzed with water and stamped onto my card stock. 

Using a craft knife I cut around the Sunflower, so the edges of parts of it sat over the panel, which was same length as my card blank 

I applied transfer foil to base of my Sunflower. I also applied some to the base of my card blank

The panel was adhered to card blank and I added wiggly lines down each side of the panel, with a black pen

The sentiment was stamped in white, to complete 

Many thanks for popping by and I'll be back again soon

Hello You

Hello everyone xx

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas xx

It's my turn on the Bee Crafty blog today and I'm using the fabulous Light Tomorrow  stamp set.
Such a fun and versatile stamp that can create so many different looks depending on the medium you use.
Today I've gone for the "bright" and vibrant look

Products used :
Light Tomorrow stamp set
Cogs stamp set
Everyday Sentiments
Distress Oxides
Transfer foils

I inked up all the cog stamps in various bright Distress Oxides,  and stamped them randomly all over the card blank

On a seperate piece of square card I stamped the fab Light Bulb in black onyx versafine then masked it off

Using the same Distress Oxides I randomly stamped parts off the texture stamp over the masked Light Bulb. This gives the illusion of it coming from behind

I then used my transfer foils to create some "lighr" rays

To complete I stamped the sentiment in black onyx versafine. 

This was matted onto black card then adhered to card blank

I love this fun and contemporary look ... hope you do to 

I'll be back again soon
