Christmas Poinsettia

Good Afternoon!

This is one of my favourite cards using one of my favourite dies!  Tattered Pointsettia by Sizzix can be used in so many different ways.  




What you can't see is the shimmer spray I put onto the petals.  Make your own using Perfect Pearls powder mxed with water.  It's beautiful in real life.  I just wish I could get more of the background die!

Thanks for looking!

Gold and More Gold

Good Evening! Just a quick post tonight.   I had some leftover backgrounds done with Distress Oxide Sprays, splatters done with Jacquard Metallic Paint and Distress Picket Fence paint. Matting with gold really brought the gold out of the background.  I am the worst photographer on the planet and it's hard to make out the layered background! The stamps are from Stamperia and stamped with Versamark and Ranger Detail Gold embossing powder. Thanks for stopping by! Stay safe and stay healthy! Sheree

3D Embossing Folders & Mirror Paper Have you tried putting mirror paper through your die cutting machine using those gorgeous 3D embossing folders?  Did your beautiful paper have cracks from the extreme highs and lows? Tip of the day.... Mist the back of your cardstock and wait 15 seconds and then put it through your Big Shot or die cutting machine!  Works like a charm!! Have a wonderful day crafting! Sheree

New Posts Coming Soon!

Good Evening Everyone! I am so excited about getting back into blogging!  I am working on some projects and should have the first one posted tomorrow night.  I will now be forced to complete everything instead of jumping to playing with 'new stuff' all the time.   The new BoBunny paper lines are so beautiful and there's a fun Autumn card in the works.  I hope you will like what I'm putting together.  See you tomorrow!!

Distress Background

Good Afternoon! This is one of my background techniques that I taught in a class in 2014.  This shows the colour combinations that can be achieved when blending different inks together.  Be careful not to overdo it! Mat the card abd accent with a black pen.  I love using the Opti-flow pens from Staples and they are acid free too! Thanks for looking! Sheree The Rubber Room

Christmas Card - Authentique

Image
Good Morning! I have a Christmas card from last year that I'd like to share.  The papers are from Authentique and I wanted to show everyone that you don't need Christmas papers to create a lovely card.  We used black, cream and silver as well as the Sizzix Pine Tree die and a die for the sentiment. Thanks for looking and happy crafting! Sheree The Rubber Room

New For 2019

Image
  It's New Year's Eve and am looking forward to new goodies arriving in January and February! One item that I can hardly wait for is the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil machine, and another for those with the Gemini electric die cutting machine, the Gemini Foil Press! These machines will take crafting and card making to a whole new level.  You will be able to use some of your thinlet dies you already own and there's also a whole new selection of stamp / die and stamp combos put out by Spellbinders and Crafter's Companion.  I have the Glimmer systems on order and can bring in the Gemini systems as well by special order. Please note that the Spellbinders Glimmer will work in the Big Shot, Spellbinders Grand Caliber and many other name brands except for the Cuttlebug.  The Gemini states it would probably work with other name brands except for the Cuttlebug.  And now the question is... which one do you choose?  -The Spellbinders Glimmer ...
