Fable Friends - Clean and Simple

How sweet and simple is this card? :o)

I used one of the images from the new Fable Friends stamp set. All of the images are super cute!

I stamped using Memento Black ink onto some of our normal weight Whisper White card and coloured using the Stampin' Blends Alcohol markers. 

The Grass is a separate stamp. I masked off part of the image when I stamped it as I wanted just two small tufts :o)

The ribbon and layering mat are both Daffodil Delight, but I used Pineapple Punch for the flower. I wanted it to be really bright :o)

Sadly, this ribbon is no longer available. It was part of the FREE Organdy Ribbon Combo pack from our Sale-a-Bration Promotion, but has already completely gone. There are additional FREE items being added to Sale-a-Bration on 15th February!

I may add a sentiment to this card later - there are lovely sentiments included with this stamp set, all in pretty fonts. Leaving it blank gives me more options and I think you could use these images for many different occasions.

Lovely Lattice - Another Sparkly Stained Glass Card

Hello There! :o)

I have another beautiful card to share with you today using the Lovely Lattice Sale-a-Bration stamp set. This set can be yours for FREE with a qualifying purchase of £45. You can find all the details about our current Sale-a-Bration Promotion by clicking on the Flyer in my left-hand sidebar.

In my previous post (HERE), I showed you some cards and included a Video Tutorial that used this same technique but I used the Big Shot to cut the elements out. This time, I cut them out by hand.

You first stamp your image using Black Stazon ink onto Window Sheet (or Acetate). The image is then coloured on the reverse using our Stampin' Blends Alcohol markers. 

The Window Sheet is then attached to Glimmer card using Glue Dots. You finally cut around the image (both Window Sheet and Glimmer) by hand. 

This was the first card I made using this Technique - and although I love it, it wasn't easy to cut through the Window Sheet and Glimmer together for such an intricate design - I did it though! :o)

This is such a simple card really. I raised the image up using Dimensionals and added it to a Whisper White layer - embossed using the Subtle Folder.

The Flirty Flamingo layer was embossed using our new Lace Folder.

Stained Glass Technique using Acetate and Glimmer - with Home To Roost - Video Tutorial

I have a Video Tutorial for you today. This one shows you how to do the Stained Glass Technique but instead of Vellum, I'm using Acetate and Glimmer paper.

I absolutely love this Technique - so much so I've made quite a few cards using it, some of which I'll show you over the next couple of weeks.

I've fallen in love with this Rooster from the Home to Roost Sale-a-Bration stamp set, so I had to use him again for today's card :o)

The Technique is simple. You stamp your image onto Acetate using Stazon ink and then colour it on the reverse using Stampin' Blends Alcohol markers. The Glimmer paper is then added to the reverse using Glue Dots and you are done. The result is really sparkly and beautiful.

You can cut around the image if you like, so you only have the Glimmer showing through the actual image and not all around too - both methods look great :o)

You can see the sparkle a little better in this photo. Isn't it pretty?

Here is my video ....
