Here are the cards that I created for Extravaganza using the paper pack Dreamin’. This is such a fun and versatile paper pack!! SO sad that it has taken me 2 months to get these posted…….OH well, better late than NEVER! I will try to give a brief description of each card below it. My brain is a bit foggy today as I am trying to get ready to go out of town TOMORROW! SO, if for some reason I cannot remember the name of a stamp set……I will come back and correct it once I know it!
This first card uses a CTMH Clear Circle Card. The cute little owl is from Hot Diggity and has always been one of my FAVORITES!! I stamped him 2 times: Once in Chocolate and once in Goldrush. I cut out the top half of the owl in Goldrush, added Liquid Glass and Prisma Glitter then pop dotted it to the chocolate image.
This BLING on this card is using a button from the Bling Assortment. To color the button I took Liquid Glass and Goldrush Reinker and mixed them together on a non porous surface then dipped (or you can brush the mixture on) the button in the mixture and let it dry. It is hard to tell from this pic……but I spritzed a glimmer mist over the flowers using Rubbing Alcohol and Pearl Paint.
This SUPER CUTE bear comes from Beary Busy. I just LOVE this guy!! The sparkle on this card is hard to see, but you can click on the photo to make it larger and see it better. I used Black Staz-On and VersaMark with Clear Detail Embossing Powder to stamp the outlined image. I then used my CTMH Watercolor Pencils and Blending Pen to color him in. To give it a finishing touch, I used Liquid Glass and Prisma Glitter in the center of each flower.
This is a 3×3 card. The center BLING is from the Designer Rhinestone Brads collection. I used Liquid Glass and Crystal Blue Reinker to color the Rhinestone Brad. The flower was spritzed with Pearl Paint/rubbing alcohol for an extra bit of sparkle.
Another 3×3 card. The flowers were stamped in Goldrush first, then rolled in Chocolate ink for a two-tone look then spritzed with the Glimmer Mist solution mentioned above. The center of the flowers are Mocha Opaques, which are a MUST have in ANY embellishment collection! The ribbon bow is from the Honey Mini Medley Collection.
And yet 1 more 3×3 card using blue sparkles from the Blue/Green Sparkles package. Sparkles are such a fun and inexpensive embellishment to use on cards, scrapbook pages and paper projects. I swear I am always adding them to each order that I place for fear I will run out! The ribbon is from the Honey Mini Medley Collection.
I think this is the last 3×3 card in this group! The butterfly is from the Flutter Paper Shapes and was spritzed with the Glimmer Mist mentioned earlier. The body of the butterfly is made up of Opaques from the Mocha Opaques Gems.
The flowers are from the stamp set Unscripted. Again, the Bling was made by mixing Liquid Glass and Goldrush Ink then dipping the bling buttons in the mixture. The ribbon is a bulk Chocolate Stripe ribbon that is a bit over 1 inch wide. I used the brand new ruler from CTMH to create the zig zag stitching along the paper edges.
This card and the one above and below are all 6×6 cards. The resin flowers and hanging gem are from the Heirloom Assortment. I used liquid glass in the center of each flower to adhere a Mocha Opaque Gem. Stamp set used is Treasure Life and the ribbon is from the Colonial White Ribbon Collection. I used an edge distresser to the edges of the Colonial White CS to add a bit more dimension and distressing.
Last but NOT least…..In the center of each flower I used a Ribbon Slide from the Foundry Metal Accessories, Bling Buttons and White Hemp. Each of the flowers was dyed using Goldrush Reinker and Rubbing Alcohol. The blue flowers that are stamped under the sentiment have liquid glass and prisma glitter added to the center of each one. You can enlarge the photo to see them up close!
OK I need to run…..Hope that I have been able to inspire you to add a bit more BLING to your cards, pages and paper projects!
Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
I will have more to share next week!!
Happy Scrapping and Stamping!
