One Card, three techniques ......

Hi everyone

In todays post

• One card, three techniques

Do you remember the lovely Zentangle technique which I shared with you earlier in the week?   

(If you missed it you can click above and you will be taken to the post)

I loved the doodling on this technique but wanted to add a bit more ........ so how about some paper tearing, and some heat embossing.  Yep all three on one card.

The card base for this one is an A5 base which is very popular in the UK.

I have used the lovely blended Bloom Stamp set. 

Firstly I stamped the image in versamark and then heat embossed with clear power.

Then I stamped the image on very vanilla and got down to some doodling,

love the way the flower came out.  It had to be fuzzy cut, as there is no punch for this one.

next I stamped the image on very vanilla several times on only coloured in tiny bits.

Before tearing the card stock to the shape I really wanted.

I finished off the inside with the stamp again in Momento ink.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Sentiments and is stamped onto the small oval and layered onto the large oval punch.  I have edged the layers with my Stamp N Write Marker in basic black.

To finish I added three of the flowers from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack 2014 which have been sponged in basic black and then finished with pearls in the centre.

Have a great day and I hope you find some time to get creative.  Don't forget I would love to see what you make, so why not leave a comment in the box with a link to your projects inspired by this.

Hugs

Beautiful bunch meets teeny tiny sentiments

Morning everyone, well I say Morning, but for my worldwide followers it could be any time of day,

so a big Hello to everyone, wherever you are.   I hope that you're well and happy.

I have been showing you in the last few posts the Beautiful Bunch stamp set.  This is such a gorgeous set and so versatile.  So far we have done Thank You cards, a Sympathy card and today I wanted to show you a clean and simple card "Just for You".

So what is clean and simple .......... my understanding of this is that the majority of the card is left blank and un-adorned, leaving a clean simple look.

I have based my card today on the challenge at freshly made sketches.

 

Don't you think this is cute.  Its just crying out for the Beautiful Bunch Stamp set.

I wanted to show you that this set can be used to create borders and other patterns as well as the lovely flowers.

I have used the lovely circular dots to create two rows of stamping behind my flower

I have added a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Sentiments and then finished this with the flower from the Itty Bitty Punches pack and a few pearls.  The edge of the sentiment was inked with my lovely new blendabilties.

Above and below are close ups of the gorgeous flower.  This has been stamped and coloured with the Blendabilties four times.  

I have only used one set of the Blendabilties on this card and that is the cherry cobbler set.  I also used the blender pen to bring in some highlights.  These are amazing pens that you will be wanting to use time and time again.

I have cut some up to bring the petals out and then the centre has also been punched and layered.  I finished this off with some dazzling diamonds on the petals and crystal effects in the centre

 and a side view.

I am going to enter this into the challenge.  Its a long time since Ive done any challenge work, so wish me luck.

I hope that I've managed to show you that the Beautiful Bunch stamps and punch are very very versatile and can be used for lots of occasions.  

Want the Blendabilties - then why not join my club starting August 1st and collect the whole set.  For more information click here

Have a great day everyone.
