Celebrate - Pretty Pink Posh

 Hello Crafty friends! Back with some more birthday inspiration for you featuring new Pretty Pink Posh products from the January Release. 

For the background we ink blended with the new Kitsch Flamingo, Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio. These have to be my top distress ink colors right here and I love how they look in a blend! Then I took the new Layered Confetti Stencils and ink blended on using white pigment ink. 

The image is from the new Valentine Circles set but I wanted to show this set is very versatile and works for more than just Valentines. This was colored using some copic markers and I attached directly to the background because I knew I wanted to have the die cut go across part of it and I didn't want to add dimension because of it. Lastly I die cut 2 of the sentiment to layer on top to pop it up a bit. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Its Bananas! - Mama Elephant

Hello Crafty friends! I have been loving the Whimsy Alpha set from Mama Elephant so of course I had to make a Banana's card! I used the new Zodiac Monkeys & the vines from Swinging Boarders. And use the new Slim card basics for my first slim line card!



First I lightly ink blended twisted citron distress oxide over the bottom of my panel that I die cut with the new dies. Over that I added cracked pistachio distress oxide to create a new green color. I did the same with stamping the vine. I stamped first in twisted citron and then over the top with the cracked pistachio. I added a hint of tumbled glass for the sky and then splatted my panel with the same colors. I die cut the letters with the alpha stamps and did an ombre inking to the letters with scattered straw.



Lastly I colored the monkey and banana with my zig clean color real brush markers. I only used one color per color family and blended out with my blender. Of course I ordered two new blender pens and then found my missing one! So now I have three. Ha!
