Technique Tuesday: Ink, Spray & Smash

Today's spotlight is on the "Ink, Spray & Smash Technique".  You will need glossy card stock paper to try this technique.  It sort of resembles a "tie die" look.




Post-it Note and Calendar Holder

This is one of the projects the girls will be making in my stamping class on Friday.  Stampin' Up!

Supplies:  Island Indigo card stock and ink, Gumball Green ink and Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper.

Instructions:  Cut 2 pieces of Island Indigo card stock 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 (base) and 3 1/2 x 4 1/2 (calendar top), cut DSP layer piece 3 1/4 x 4.  Score the base piece at 4 1/4 and 6 1/4. 

 


Should lay flat for easy mailing.

Stampin' Up! Floral Framelit

A friend of mine shared this great idea with me.  She made this little Cadbury Egg holder out of the Stampin' Up! Floral Fraemlits.  She used the biggest flower and scored to make this egg.


Stampin' Up! Bloomin With Kindness

Today I am sharing this simple but beautiful card I made with the Stampin' Up! Bloomin With Kindness stamp set. 



Throw Back Thursday Project

This was a cool 3D swap from back in the day.  Basically it's a mini album/brag book made with CD Sleeves.  The sleeves are usually made with white matte paper so you can stamp right on them.  Make a front and back cover, put about 4-5 CD sleeves inside and decorate.  The CD window is your photo window.  Very cute idea!










Stampin' Up! Father's Day Card - Open Sea

Today I am sharing this simple Father's Day card that can also be used as a masculine birthday card.  What's unique about this card is the silver strip.  I used Silver Duct Tape from Home Depot and ran the piece through the Chevron Embossing Folder.  Peeled the backing and glued it to the card.  Simple as that.

Technique Tuesday - Polished Stone Technique

Today's Technique Tuesday featured sample is the "Polished Stone Technique".  Such a pretty technique.. This inspires me to try this on a card background.  Hope it inspires you!
