Card With No Stamping

 Thank you for joining me today!

Happy Birthday Stuart!

As the title say's no stamping, with just die cutting, this is what you can achieve. 

I blended a piece of basic white card stock with the two colours making a marble type effect before die cutting the stars & letters. The simply scored scoring tool was used to make the grooves down the front of the card, then used stampin' blends to darken every other groove.

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: basic white, misty moonlight, soft sea foam

Dies: playful alphabet, stitched stars (2,4,5) , well written

Ink: misty moonlight, soft sea foam

Stampin' Blends: soft sea foam 

Accessories: *bakers twine, blending brushes, holiday rhinestones, simply scored scoring tool

* = no longer available, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest

Decorative Masks Embossed and Blended

 Thank you for joining me today!

it's week 5 for Paul!

I must say it's harder making weekly cards for Paul than it was for Sue, there's not such scope for men is there.

This card was inspired by a technique video I watched by Martin Stone from Martin's Mayhem! It's using decorative mask stencils that have been embossed and blending brushes, to get the blotches I just splashed on some water and blotted it off. I think it came out not too bad and it's so easy to do.

 

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: just jade, pale papaya, very vanilla

Dies: floral gallery

Ink: cinnamon cider, just jade, pale papaya, pool party

Ribbon: *forever greenery gold trim

Stamp Sets: forever fern

Accessories: blending brushes, genial gems, plenty of patterns decorative masks
