Hello! Since I have been trying to use up some of the stash of items that I save, I decided to make use of some of the wine corks that I have been accumulating and make something for my fall decor. I made Pumpkins using the corks with acrylic paint (bought this years ago at a clearance sale), green cardstock from stash, Green Washi tape, raffia ribbon, hot glue and gun, and some wire. No items were purchased for this project since I had all the supplies on hand. For the smaller pumpkin, I used 33 corks plus 1 for the stem and used 48 corks plus 1 for the larger size pumpkin. That's 88 bottles of wine!!
Welcome to my studio! I recently received Power Poppy Shamrock-n-Roll digital images and sentiments. These stamps are perfect for St. Patrick's Day cards. I created 2 cards using the same stamps on both cards. For the above card I printed the no line image on White CS with the sentiment that I colored green before printing. I colored the image with Copic Markers and added some Flower Soft Raspberry Fizz to the clover and tied on a bit of Raffia to give texture and dimension. Adhered the trimmed image to a Pattern Paper background and then to GKD Grass Green card base.
For the second card I printed the image on white cardstock and colored with different Copic Markers. I trimmed the image with a Spellbinders die and inked the edges with a Pink Copic. I used Crushed Velvet Flock to add texture to the bloom and tie. Have not used this product or the Flower soft in ages but it does add a nice touch of texture. The flocking does not show up in the photo but looks good in real life. I printed the Power Poppy sentiment on a panel of pattern paper and assembled the card with a White Cardstock base.
Welcome! I hope you all had a great New Year's Eve and I wish you much Health and Happiness in 2020! Today I am sharing some wrapping paper and tags that I created using some Artsystamper digital images with some neutral colored paper from my stash. I often give sets of handmade cards as gifts in clear boxes and I needed to gift wrap them and decided to created my own design of wrapping paper using 8.5" x11". Then I decided that I needed to add coordinated tags that I printed using the same paper and digital images. The gift package with tag that I created is shown above. I used Photoshop to layout the designs and printed them on paper. The Pine Cone and Pine Needles digital images that I used were free gifts available to the Artsystamper Art Group on Facebook.

Welcome friends. Today I have used older stamps from Heartfelt Creations Rustic Autumn set that I remembered that I have when I sawKathy's card at the Double D Challenge. I stamped the image and sentiment on White CS with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored with Copics. After wrapping the image with some Raffia Ribbon, I simply attached to a mat of Orange CS and a card base of Fresh Asparagus Green CS.
Hello! I used Power Poppy Digital stamps French Lilac and Sentiment from Geraniums Digi for this card. I water colored the Lilacs printed on water color paper with Distress Ink Stormy Sky, Broken China, Forest Moss, and Brushed Corduroy. Added a hint of lavender with Hero Arts Water Marker. I fussy cut the Flower and attached with foam tape to an embossed layer of a Pattern Paper from Our Daily Bread designs Shabby Rose Collection The sentiment printed on the same paper was cut with Nesties circle die and matted with a Circle of Green CS. The Card Base is GKD Fresh Asparagus CS. Finished with Green Raffia Ribbon.
