Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you an amazing product to add that glitter glaze you are looking for an amazing sparkle.  You just need all the beautiful glitter glaze colors believe me!!! Design team did an excellent job showing how to use this great product you can find at the Brutus Monroe Shop and you need in your stash!!!



CARD DETAILS:

I created two cards with this beautiful glitter glaze to show you how amazing it looks!! I did the exact same thing with both... I used Lunch Bag cardstock as a card base and the beautiful Berry Glitter Glaze with a stencil... Just that... and you get this beautiful sparkling look for your Christmas cards!!! I let it dry overnight and BAM!!! the next day the shine and sparkle are just beautiful I thing my photos don´t do justice to the card.


For the center of my card I wanted something fun and festive and all I could think of were the funny deers on the OH DEER Stamp set.  I used a gold thread to put a messy bun on the back of the deers and added some gold sequins to go along with the gold card base I used.  Aren´t they just so adorable looking?


Here is my second card.... this guy just makes me laugh all the time!!


I hope you like my cards today and can be inspired to add that glitter glaze your cards need!!   Hop along with the Team and check out their amazing creations using Glitter Glaze.

Shrink Film Earings/ Brutus Monroe Blog Hop

Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you  projects using a very fun product!!! Shrink Film..... this was my first try with this product and I love it!!!   The Design team did an excellent job showing how to use this great product you can find at the Brutus Monroe Shop and you need to give a try!!!


PROJECT DETAILS:

To start with this project you will need to have some things in hand: Brutus Monroe Detail Ink, Stamp Set, Heat Gun, Shrink Film, hole punch, accesories to create your project, something to hold the shrink film while shrinking.  


First you need to stamp the image in the shrink film, because of the sleek surface of the shrink film you need to stamp once and leave it to air dry for a little.  After that you need to carefully cut around the image, If you have the coordinating die you can do that too.  if you are makin a charm or earings like me before shrinking the film you have to punch a hole in the center of the image to put the accesories through.


After that set your heat gun to be as hot as you can and hold the image with something (if not it will fly away) and start shrinking it with your heat gun...  At the beginning I thought I was doing something wrong but at the end it went well and the charm became flat.


Put the accesories and Wow you have new adorable accesories made with your favorite stamp sets!!  Hop along with us and check out the amazing projects from the team.



Have an amazing day!! I will because today it´s my Birthday!!

Shake it up using Brutus Monroe Self Adhesive Shaker Pouches

Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you an amazing product to create easy shaker cards... Have you heard about the Shaker Pouches?? The Design team did an excellent job showing how to use this great product you can find at the Brutus Monroe Shop and you need in your stash!!!


CARD DESIGN:

The shaker pouches are a very smart product to create very easy no bulky shaker cards!!! These pouches inner measurements are 4" x 4.5" they are perfect for A2 size cards.  These shake helpers have adhesive on the back and also have an adhesive seal on the top so you can close up and seal once your shaker bits are inside.  You will receive a pack of 25 in this configuration.

Self Adhesive Shaker Pouch - 25 Pack
To create this card I used my fuse tool to seal the shaker pouch to a smaller rectangle size leaving the up part open I cut a green glitter cardstock to put inside the shaker with the shaker bits in christmas colors and sealed it with the adhesive in the up part.


I cut a frame with Alabaster cardstock and adhere it to the shaker pouch to create the window, I then peel of the adhesive sticker on the back of the shaker pouch and put it in the center of a gold and kraft card base.  I decorate the window with a poinsetta I diecut with glitter cardstock...  I felt this beautiful outside didn´t need a sentiment so I stamped the sentiment inside the card.


Check out the great look and no bulk of this shaker card using the shaker pouches...


Hop along with us for more inspiration on how to use this awesome product!!!!

CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I was very inspired by the Designer Toner Sheet Marble I totally think It looks like a spooky night sky... So I wanted to create a spooky night scene.  I started by foiling the toner sheet with red Deco Foil.  That was the base for my scene... With Raven cardstock I cut a halloween border and to make it even more spooky I add some bats flying around.


I stamped the Vampire and I wanted to make his cape shinny, to make that I also foiled only his cape by stamping it on a black toner sheet and I foiled it with the same red foil I used for the background. I finally stamped the sentiment with Alabaster Embossing Powder.



Hop along with us for more Halloween inspiration!!!

Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you our favorite Brutus Monroe Florals!!!   There are lots of different floral stamps on the shop, you really need to check them out!!! 



CARD DETAILS:

I use the beautiful Conservatory of Quotes.  I first stamp this image with Sticky Glue Pad and used the beautiful Pigment Powderds for a metalic look on raven cardstock.



I cut the images in half to create a geometric look, and adhere them mixing the metallic tones for a more interestic look to a white cardbase leaving a lttle bit of white around the image.  I die cut the word praying and added some sequins to finish it up.


This metallic colors look so beautiful on dark cardstock and the only tools you need are the sticky glue pad + the powdered elements + a brush  I feel that all my floral cards are always a great thing to have because you can use them almost for any ocassion and is like giving an actual set of flowers to someone.

Watercolor

Hello Friends welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe Stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a Blog Hop at the Brutus Monroe Blog featuring a product or technique of the week!  This week we  want to share with you some watercolor inspiration with you!!!   Brutus Monroe has an amazing new line of  watercolors called Aqua Pigments, the colors are beautiful collection.. you really need to check them out!!! As soon as I have mine I will totally tell you more about them! For my project today I use Color Burst Watercolor powder.


CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I started by choosing the Brutus Monroe Heavy Watercolor Cardstock... this cardstock is amazing... it takes lots of water for your watercolor projects.  I stamp the Conservatory of Quotes on the smooth side of the cardstock with Brutus Monroe Embossing Ink and I use Alabaster Embossing Powder for a more dramatic look.


All you need is a little bit of powder to create an amazing look...I see having this color burst for a long time!!! I then use a green watercolor to paint the leaves and splash some green for a contrast.  To finish I mounted the watercolored panel to a Jurassic Cardstock base and stamped the beautiful sentiment.


There are more beautiful projects from the Design Team to inspire you to take out your watercolors or give the new Aqua Pigments or Color Burst a try...Hop along with us for more ideas:
