  Hello Everyone! It's Ceal here to share a card with you today using the Baby it's Cold Outside set. It's 2020 and we all know we have to social distance and that is what it looks like these santas are doing right? I love to make wintry snowy skies and this stamp set is perfect to do that.  I stamped the image in our Black Hybrid ink, colored it using Copic markers and then masked it off and created the sky To create the sky I used the Life Changing Blender Brushes and Concord & 9th inks in Midnight,...

Hi guys! It's Erica back on the PFS Blog today, with three cards all using the Leaf Mandala stamp from the August release.  The first two cards are done with Rose Gold embossing powder, one clean and simple and the other rich and sparkly.  On the clean and simple one I coloured in the leaves with Zig Clean Color markers, in autumnal colours to complement the colour of the embossing powder.  This one was finished off with a stamp set from Levels Of Friendships in three different Distress Oxide inks to create a gradient look.

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...
