Normal is Boring... Who is with me?

Hello Friends!!! Today we start a new week... my kids finally started school and here in Guatemala is freezing!!! but today I am so excited to share my card for my Brutus Monroe Monday Blog Post!  The first time I saw this stamp set I just love it! It is called BE UNIQUE and it comes with lots of amazing sentiments like this one... NORMAL IS BORING... I love it and live it every day, because definitely I am not NORMAL...hahaha anybody that knows me can tell you that!! Well now to the card.

CARD DETAILS:

I started with a white card base, I inked with Brutus Monroe Embossing ink and the Pugsley Stencil, I did a quick pass through it because I wanted a very organic look to it.  I added Icible Brutus Monroe Ultra Fine Embossing Powder.  I smooshed my current favorite Oxide colors Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers, I also added some water splashes mixed with Salty Ocean and  Seedless Preserves.  I color the bunny with  Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers with the same colors from the background to unify the design. 

I adhere the piece to a black card base and stamped the awesome sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink and clear embossing powder.

I loved the end result of this card and hope you liked it too.

Have a great day!

Rainbow Party Newton

Hello Friends Waleska here with my Monday Blog Post as the October Guest Designer!!! I hope you have a great starting week!!  For today's card I gave halloween cards a rest and I used the Newton´s Costume Party Stamp Set for a non halloween card, I dress up Newton as a beautiful unicorn for a card ready to cheer up someone in need!!!

CARD DETAILS:

I used Oxide Inks for the background in colors Worn Lipstick, Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade, Cracked Pistachio, Broken China and Wilted Violet,  I put all the colors on a Ranger Mat and I added a little water, I started smooshing a white card base beginning with the light colors until I smooshed all of the them to create a very colorful background.

I die cut the rainbow and color it with the same Oxide colors from the card base to unify the design, I stamped, cut and color three cats and adhere the unicorn horns to them.  I used 3D foam to raised the cats and cloud.  Finally I added the sentiment and clear sequins as embellishments.

The Newton´s Costume Party stamp set is so great because you can use it for many occasions! I hope you like my card and I inspire you to use this and other sets in different ways!

Have a wonderful week!

Reverse Confetti/ Party Animal

Hello Friends! I am here with this fun and funky card with Reverse Confetti stamps! Over my time as a cardmaker I have found many companies I love... the most recent one I love is Reverse Confetti... I just love their cute and abstract critters! they are so much fun to create with!

I created this card for their current sketch challenge at their blog! I have the most recent stamps and now I want them all! for this card I used Oxide Inks for the background with a mix of normal dye inks I first smooshed the dye ink color to my card base and after that I smooshed Peeled Paint oxide ink to create the (in my view) prehistoric background! I color the dino with markers and I just follow the sketch to create the rest of the elements!

What do you think cute enough.... 

Flying Bunny!

Hello Friends it is time for another Pin-Sights Challenge at the Ellen Hutson blog! I love the colorful inspiration this time, It has lots of party inspiration and vibrant colors... check it out because in my opinion this challenge has the best prize!!! I won it one time and love it!

I was inspired to use this color combination because of the inspiration... I am in love with the  new Oxide Ink colors, I am now missing only 4 colors from the colors the have out and I am loving every single one of them! they blend so well, there are lots of techniques you can do with them so, in my opinion they are a must have in your supplies! The colors I used for this card where Peacock Feathers, Worn Lipstick and Fossilized Amber with a smooshing technique I used the Craftin Desert Divas Frame dies and the Labels Maker Sentiments from My Favorite things!!! 

From Ellen Hutson I use the Bear Ware by Julie and the clouds from Silver Linings by Julie also.  I hope you have an amazing starting week!
