Waves Dies

I enjoyed doing Cheryl's Cling Wrap Smoosh technique so much, that I decided to do it again on my third Waves of Inspiration card. This card was inspired by one of the samples on page 101 of the Annual Catalogue. 

After I'd done my 'smoosh', I placed the 2 Waves die cuts over the top. For the clouds, I sponged some Smoky Slate ink on the cloud overlay die cuts. 

You can see everything else I used listed below. Have a great day!

Riding the Wave

I enjoyed making Cheryl's ShoeBox card so much that I decided to make some more cards of my own, all using the Waves of Inspiration bundle in the Annual Catalogue. This card was inspired by one of the samples on page 101 of the Annual Catalogue. 

To get this effect with the wave stamp, I first inked up the rubber with Bermuda Bay ink, and then with a sponge dauber, I sponged Pacific Point ink straight onto the rubber in a few places. I just love the effect. 

I didn't need to do much else with the rest of the card, just a die cut for the sentiment and some twine. It's hard to tell in the picture but I also added some Shimmery Crystal Effects to the wave.

You can see everything else I used listed below. Thanks for visiting!

What is a Shoebox Swap, I hear you ask? All the ingredients for making a card are included in each box, including pre-cut cardstock. It's great to be able to sit down and make 10 cards without having to think/plan/design.

Waves of Inspiration

And here is another Stamp Camp ShoeBox card. This one was made by me, but designed for us by Cheryl Taylor. 

This is the Waves of Inspiration bundle in the Annual Catalogue. All of this week's cards were inspired by the samples on page 101 of the Annual Catalogue. 

Cheryl showed us a fabulous background technique for this card. Simply add a few drops of water to a drop of ink refill on a palette or your inkpad lid. Then lightly scrunch up a small piece of cling wrap and dip it into your ink pool and lightly smoosh  and dab it around on your cardstock. This is Shimmery White, but any cardstock works. Doesn't it give a great effect? I'll be doing this again for sure.

You can see everything else I used listed below. Thanks for popping in!

September Blog Hop

Welcome to another Stampers Anonymous Team Blog Hop! This month we have a Sketch Challenge. You can make the complete circuit and see all the gorgeous creations by following the links at the end of each post.

I decided on the He's the Man Suite for this sketch. I needed some more masculine cards in my stash for Father's Day and some upcoming birthdays

This colour scheme is Cajun Craze, Early Espresso and Sahara Sand. The barbeque comes from the sheet of die-cuts that comes with the He's the Man DSP. All the other patterned pieces are also from the DSP. I even cut out a teeny spatula from the DSP. 

I flagged one end of the sentiment and I also added some Rustic Metallic Adhesive-backed dots.

Well, that’s all from me. Click on the button below to move to the next stop:
