CA(S)E this Sketch #193

For this card I sponged the background with Memento Ink and Distress Inks. I've been looking at some of my favorite stamp sets that I never use. From Close to My Heart, "Neighborhood" and "Cityscape Everyday Life" stamps. For the sentiment "Scripty Sayings" by Paper Smooches. I love the thickness of the line in this set of stamps. It creates a bold sentiment that I feel balances well with the rest of the design.

CAS(E) this Sketch #192

This I made before my first entry. I used Mama Elephant's Thanks sentiment and Paper Smooches hearts. I really love the raised effect achieved with the fun foam!

Polymer Clay necklace

Disappointed for not making it into the Fire Mountain Gems Creative Clays contest. Worked hard on this one! I guess now I can post it. This one is polymer clay, rubber stamped and then brushed on with mica powders and finished with ice resin. For the square beads I embossed aluminum metal sheet on my Cuttlebug. I filled in the texture with liquid polymer clay and the covered with Ice Resin.

Trying hard to get back into crafting!! I am finally entering on this week's CAS(E) this Sketch! I really loved the simple sketch. I had just received the Paper Smooches dies I used and bought a bunch of fun foam to experiment...

Papertrey Ink's Guiding Light

Hi!
I recently purchased the Guiding Light stamp set from Papertreyink. This is a step stamp with lighthouses and some beautiful sayings. This is my first opening the package and using the set. I must say I love it. I saw an artist on pinterest work around a Papertreyink stamped building witb watercolors and loved the effect, so I tried doing something similar with these stamps and create a watercolored scene. I first stamped with Tsukineko Memento die inks and then I completed the landscape with Zig Clean Color Markers and a waterbrush.

I didn't love how grainy the image came out so I will try with different ink pads next time.

Tree set cutting file from Ranita

I always end up taking soooo many pictures of the same card is not even funny!. I am never pleased with the finished result, always thinking one detail didn't show up well enough etc... and I end taking 12 shots of the same card...Everytime...
Anyway, for this card I embossed the brown panel. Cut out the tree in white cardstock on my Silhouette Portrait and colored it with Mepxy Markers.  I used Simon Says Stamps Tiny flowers dies and Mama Elephant's Thanks sentiment. I saved some time cutting those in fun foam to add some pop.
