New Stuff

I received my new stuff from my pre-order from the new catalog on Tuesday. Just one of the many advantages of being a demo. We get try out everything first. Well anyways I broke out the new in-colors and had fun playing with Baja Breeze paper and ink. I found a card I like and tweak it a little and this is what I came up with. The big bold flower is stamp with whisper white ink and then dried. Once it's dry you color on the flower with the pencil. Then for a fininshing touch I added whit gel pen. You can find great video on black magic here made by veronicaskreations.

Supplies:

Stamps- Faboulous Flowers

Paper- basic black, whisper white, baja breeze.

Ink- whisper white craft, baja breeze

Accessories- metalic pencils, white ribbon, and gel pen

Isn't this card cute. I pulled this card out of the swap drawer it was created by Crystal D Erzen. The scallop edge was created with the corner rounder. It takes a litte while, but makes a cute edge. But guess what Stampin Up is coming out with a scallop border punch woohoo. I can't wait it will out in the new catalog. Yeah.

So this card I pulled out of my card front swaps that I have stored a way. This card was created by Barbara Welch. I got this card from a convention swap. This set is Unfrogetble and will be retiring this year. The part I like the best is the little googlie eyes on the frog.

This is what I did with the create decor elements excuse the mess in the background, thats my messy kitchen. My stamp room is supposed to be a dining room, but in the last 4 years that we have lived in this house it has always been my stamp room.
