Hello friends! Today I’m up at Picket Fence Studios Blog sharing this shaker card featuring the Peony Foil Impression Die, the Brocade Stencil and Spiked Ocean Water Sequin Mix. Let’s begin! Using the Peony Foil Impression Die and gold foil on a white cardstock I foiled the peony with the help of a Gemini Foilpress machine. Then, I die cut the flower using the matching die and reserved it. Next, on a white panel I created an ombré look using different shades of blues with the help of my Life Changing Blender Brushes. Once my panel was dry, I placed...

I unapologetically love Christmas!  Lucky for me Picket Fence Studios July Release features several new Christmas items.  For the first two cards, I used the beautiful Brocade Stencil which is not really a Christmas stencil but paired with Christmas colors and a Christmas sentiment it's Christmasy!  The sentiment is included in the wonderful Believe in the Magic set.

Hello - it's Michelle here today, and I have a card to share today using the Early Tulip Bouquet stamp set.   I started by ink smooshing some Distress Oxide inks onto a piece of watercolour paper.

Have...

Hello my crafty friends! Today I’m sharing this Christmas shaker card over Picket Fence Studios Blog. For this card, I have used new stamps from the July Release HO HO HO and Reindeer Stamps along with Gin & Tonic Sequin Mix. Let’s begin! I die cut this slim panel and applied inks to it using the Life Changing Blender Brushes. Next, with the help of my MISTI I stamped the Reindeer Stamp all across the slim panel using WOW! Embossing Pad and heat embossed it with WOW! Opaque Bright White Embossing Powder. Then, I adhered a piece of cellophane wrap...

 The new release is amazing. I hope you checked out all the new products and what the DT created with all the goodness yesterday. You can find all the NEW RELEASE HERE! It was full of fall and Christmas stamps but I wanted to ink up this new Shading Flower Stencil. It's a beautiful image and makes beautiful cards. I have two cards, one with bright cheerful colors and another one monochromatic .  The first one I created with colors from this week's Color Throwdown Challenge. I inked up the flower with Salty Ocean, Dried Marigold, and Mowed Lawn Distress...
