A New way to Paint

It's my Friday over at the Sisters blog and the post is late this week, what can I say.... The new way to paint is called Scrape Painting and it's MESSY! I think all 3 of us had not prepared for the drying time our background(s) needed! Here it is Sunday and it is finally assembled--

In the Scrape Painting Tutorial it says that you can use a straight edge to move the paint around the card, I had an old mini blind, I broke a piece off about 8 inches long. I must have put too much paint on my card stock, because I found that if I lifted the straight edge just a smidge as I spun the card stock around it left a petal like puddle. I really like the way it looks!! 

I used the super cute stamp set called Nothing's Better Than (pg. 91, #152507, $22.00 set/#154061,  $46.75 bundle). 

Thank-you for coming by today! Happy stamping, Karla 😊

Falling Leaves Friday

 

Fall Colors

 

Box it Up!

 Welcome! It's Fabulous Friday once again over at the Sisters in Stamping and we are showing some packaging ideas. Here is my idea for today's post--

It's called a triangle box, it's an oldie but a goodie that's been around for years. It may have been the very first box I made when I started stamping 10 years ago! 

I used the InColor Pretty Peacock and the matching Scalloped Linen ribbon.

 Side view of my triangle box:

The set I used is called Floral Essence, #149450, $17.00.

Fall Leaves with Re-Inkers

 Hello! This week's theme over at the Sisters in Stamping is Re-Inkers, here is my card for this week--

I have wanted to try this technique for quite some time, it's super easy and I wanted the leaves to look like they are falling with the swipes of color. Here is a link to the technique I used: Credit Card Technique I used re-inkers to make my background instead of acrylic paint like she did.

This set is in the 2020 Holiday Mini Catalog

Lovely Leaves & Stitched Leaves Dies, (#155195, $47.50)

A Manly Card

It's Friday!! Seems like this year has just flown by at times and then gone so slow too-- how can that be?? Anyway, I'm sure your not here to talk about the time space continuum, here's my card--

 I started out using masculine colors because that is the theme for this week, but now that I sit back and take a look at my card it's not really gender related, it's a Sympathy card. It could easily be changed by swapping out the sentiment. The set is called Snow Front (pg.58, #150483, $22.00) I have used this set before here. 

It has quite a few pieces for assembling nature scenes. One of my Sisters used a similar stamp set called Waterfront to make her card today. Make sure you go over to the Sisters site to check her card. Snow Front and Waterfront were both designed by the same artist. 

Thank-you for coming out today!

Happy Stamping, Karla 😋
