STAMPtember Concord&9th challenge

Hi!

It's been forever since I posted.
I don't know what to say, life has been hard. Crazy hard.

Anyway, here's a card I've made today, with the Concord & 9th  Mix Tape stamp set.
I LOVE this stamp set, and using the Hero Arts Ombre ink pad might have been the best thing I've done this week, or year, to be honest! Lol! (Note to self, I need more Ombre pads! )

Sorry about the retro filter, but I was in a 80's mood, all the way!

Party like it's 1989!

Ok. I'm exhausted just by writing this short post, and uploading the pic.

Here's the challenge I'm entering, over at the Simon Says Stamp blog.

Miss you

This cute bunny is from Mama Elephant, it's from a stamp set called Pix's Favorites.
I knew I wanted the bunny to look at a starry night sky from the moment I saw this set!

I paired it with the Seeing Stars set from Simon Says Stamp. I think it's a perfect match!
I also love the Inkylicious Ink Dusters! They make it so easy to blend ink, and to get a nice soft look! No hard edges and lines, like I would get from the foam blending tool.

If you've ever been outside in the winter, when it is freezing, you know how the snow sparkles like it has glitter and diamond dust in it. I wanted to give the impression of a really cold winter night, so I added some glitter glue to the snow. (It looks much better IRL than on this picture... Very hard to get a good photo of glitter!)

Supplies:
Stamps: Pix's Favorites from Mama Elephant, and Seeing Stars from Simon Says Stamp.
Ink: Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky and Chipped Saphire Distress Ink, Versamark and Versafine.
Dies: My Favorite Things Blueprints 13, and Simon Says Stamp Stitched Slopes and Hills.
Other: Fine detail clear embossing powder, Ink Dusters, foam tape, MISTI, glitter glue, and Copic Sketch markers.

Little Tangles, Challenge 78 Rainbow

Hi!

Here's my first Little Tangles entry. Had to join the rainbow challenge, I love rainbows! :D


I used the Neat and Tangled Scandinavian Prints stamp set.
First I cut out small circles and heat embossed flowers on them. I then painted them "sloppy watercolor style" (LOL ) using Twinkling H2O's. I also stamped leaves, and fuzzy cut them.

The rainbow panel is made with distress inks and Ink Dusters, and then I sprinkled some water on and let it dry.

The sentiment, one leaf, and 2 of the flowers are mounted on 3D foam tape.


Supplies:Stamps: Neat and Tangled Scandinavian Prints.
Other: Distress inks, Ink Dusters, dies from MFT and Spellbinders, 3D Foam tape, Green Apple and Evergreen Simon Says Stamp ink, Versamark and Versafine ink, Clear embossing powder, and my MISTI.
