Zero Calories on the Sweet Ice Cream Cones

Our sponsor for August over at Twisted Thursday, is Your Next Stamp. This week's optional twist is Birthday.

This image and sentiment comes from a set called Zero Calories.

I used some Distress Oxide Inks for the background and placed a wet stencil over it to make those circles. I stamped another dip of the cones and fussy cut to add to the top for dimension. A brown colored pencil was used for shading on the cones. The Happy Birthday is popped on the one side and some sequins, Wink of Stella, and sequins finished the card.

Hornless Unicorn in Black and White

The August Challenge for Paper Smooches is still an Anything Goes!

This cute little critter is from a die set called Unicorn. It has an optional horn, and I did it without.  I cut the image twice and pieced it together to vary the black and white. I used Cuttlebug and a Darice embossing folders for texture on the papers, added some foam and enamel dots and called it finished. Sometimes a sweet image like this should just be a focal point. I left it without a sentiment so it could be used for anything in the future.



Thanks for your visit, and I hope to see you again soon!

Cross-Stitch Wishes on a Vertical Step Card

The Three Amigos has a blog hop and a challenge. I really had to hunt high and low to find comparable papers, but these are fairly close to two of those shown. Mine are from Echo Park Simple Life paper pad. I used the set Cross-Stitch Wishes from Close to my Heart and created a Vertical Step Card.

The XO is popped up and I found a tiny pair of scissors that I sprayed using my Copic airbrush. A few Nuvo Drops finished up the card.

Scalloped Border

Our sponsor for August over at Twisted Thursday, is Your Next Stamp. This week's optional twist is Scalloped Border.

This image and sentiment comes from a set called Zero Calories.

The background paper was embossed with a Darice embossing folder on orange. The scalloped piece was blended with Oxide Distress Inks then a wet honeycomb stencil was placed over the top to make the design. The sentiment comes with the set and was stamped in blue over a small oval and sprayed with a sparkle spritz. A few gems were lined down the side for just a bit more bling.
