Howdy!

 

You guys know how much I love my coffee, so today I am sharing a no-line watercolor card I did with the Coffee Helps stamp set.

 

 

I stamped the cup and the rings with Oatmeal Cookie ink so that the actually stamping fades once you start adding your Color Splash pencils.  I will be doing a live video on my Facebook page,  a little later in the day, so make sure you head on over to catch that for exactly how I water colored this card.  I also uploaded it to my YouTube Chanel

 

Here are the links to all products used in this card:

 

Coffee Helps stamp set SS-0569

Finished card also available in my Etsy shop.

Fun Stampers Journey Small Things Mixed Media Tags

Hello Creative Friends.

 

I have been spending over on Facebook doing live videos every Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays at 11 am eastern time. 

 

Today I featured the Small Things Bundle and several mixed media products.

 

 

I wanted to show you how to use retired patterned paper, or patterned paper you really didn't like to create a beautiful mixed media piece.  I started by gluing the paper to a chipboard tag and priming the surface with Journey Gesso. 

 

On this tag I used several different colors of Silk to include, Cool Pool Silk and Outrageous Pink Silk.  I then stamped the Thread Sketch Background stamp onto it.  The Silver is Foil applied directly to the tag. 

 

On this tag I used different colors of Color Splash to include, Turbo Teal Splash and WaterMelon Fusion Splash.  I also stamped the Thread Sketch Background stamp onto it.  I used the Silver Foil to give my heart die cut some sparkle.

 

Make sure you head over to my Facebook page @ccreativejourney to catch a replay of the process.  If you don't want to get your fingers inky, these tags are also for sale in my Etsy store.

Thanks for stopping by,

Cindy
