Let's Get Up and Running!!

I've been bad, and busy, so left blogging for a bit.  Now that I have loads of paper to play with.... I've been playing!

After experimenting with different things I put together classes and not only shared my tips and tricks, I have had a blast with all of my friends and customers!
I'm going to post a sampling of the cards we've been making and I'll post about techniques on our new journey.  Hang on because we're going to have a fun ride!

Cheers,

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

Voice Of The Sea

Hi there! With this Covid-19 virus, and isolation, I have been doing things around the house as well as having more time to play with paper and inks! This card is stamped with a set by Crafter's Companion 'Sea Shells' stamps and coloured with Copics and Spectrum Noir markers.  I love using both marker brands!  My favourite ink to use for colouring with alcohol and water based markers is the new Nuvo Hybrid. Once the colouring was finished the stamped image was accented with a Signo white pen, (in stock), Nuvo Crystal Drops for bubbles, (in stock) and finally with 'Dirty Sand' embossing powder, (in stock), from Emerald Creek out of Alberta.  All of their specialized embossing powders are must haves!   Thanks for checking in!  Stay safe and stay healthy!

We have a large sampler pack in stock right now and have some  singles of the metallic and pearl paints in the 2.25 oz size coming on the next order.  These paints can be applied to metal, wood, fabric, leather and more!  On fabric these paints stay subtle and wash well.  I can hardly wait to play with these paints... the possibilities are endless! See you soon! Sheree p.s.  I've been playing with some outdoors papers today and will be posting them after the next set of classes!

Are you stuck indoors, isolating because of Covid19?  Getting bored yet?  The first few days were driving me nuts because I'm not used to having time off!  For the past couple of days I have been posting projects on facebook and remembered... hey!  I should start blogging again! Today's post is using the gorgeous P13 papers !   They are a heavyweight paper with beautiful watercolour images.  These papers make you want to fussy cut everything!  Everyone that has purchased some of this line has come back for more.  Love, love, Love Today's card has a background using Distress Oxide Sprays in Spun Sugar and Tattered Rose.  It still needed something so I added Antique Linen here and there.  To add some interest I used a fine liner brush and Jaquard Lumiere paint in Metallic Gold to add some lines like marble.  It still needed something more so did some splatter with Distress Picket Fence paint and once again with Jacquard Metallic Gold.  Another new project I used was
