Color Throwdown #499 using Distress Resist Spray


Happy Monday!
I have my submission for the Color Throwdown Challenge #499.
The colors this week are yellow, green and blue.



I had gotten the Tim Holtz Distress Resist Spray in the Simon Says Stamp June Card Kit.

I read on the label about using with a stencil and I just had to try it.

I used the box that the card kit came in to spray paper. I still got some overspray on my mat but luckily it is glass and able to remove. 

Make sure to instantly wash off the stencil after spraying. 



I then ink blended on top with Distress Oxides in 
Squeezed Lemonade, Lucky Clover and Blueprint Sketch.

I used a clean paper towel to buff off the ink on the splatter parts to make sure showed up with the white. 

I then stamped the You from the SSS You Matter stamp set and heat embossed with some Wow embossing powder in black. 


Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!

Daffodil Card using Silhouette Cameo 3 and Distress Oxides

Hey!!

Oh man April was not a great month for my Silhouette Cameo 3.
No matter what I put the blade at or settings in the Studio software the machine would go crazy and cut like it was cutting through chipboard.

I went though 3 reps and new cutting strips and blades and then finally got the replacement machine sent and it worked!!!
This was the first card I made and I was stoked!!


I love daffodils and I had to get this file when I saw it in the Design Store. 

I cut all the parts from white cardstock and then Colored with Distress Oxide Inks. 

I finally shed off with some Nuvo Jewel Drops in Grey Mist. 

Distress Oxides: 
Salty Ocean
Squeezed Lemonade
Carved Pumpkin
Lucky Clover 


Thank you for stopping by and see you next time!!

Mother's Day Card using Silhouette Cameo

Happy Wednesday !

I have such an adorable card to show you today!
It is the Flower Bundle Mother's Day Card by Lori Whitlock.
I got mine from the Silhouette Design Store. 


I cut it all out of white card stock and ink blended with Distress Oxide Inks.

Distress Oxides:
Squeezed Lemonade
Cracked Pistachio
Peacock Feathers
Abandoned Coral
Picked Raspberry 
Tattered Rose

I also used a Silhouette Sketch Pen in Silver for the sentiment. 
It was my first time using one and will definitely not be the last. 

After assembling I added Wink of Stella Glitter brush pen to the 
flower centers and the sentiment circle.


Thank you so much for stopping by and 
I hope you have a fantastic Mother's Day Weekend!

ColorThrowdown #450 Using Avery Elle Shine Bright Stamp Set

Happy Wednesday!

I hope you all had a great 4th of July!

Today I have my submission to the Color Throwdown Challenge #450
The colors for the challenge are Red, White, Yellow and White.


I used one of my favorite stamp sets, the Avery Elle Shine Bright set, to make this card.


I stamped and heat embossed the light house with clear embossing powder. 

I then watercolored it with distress inks. I used Candied Apple, Squeezed Lemonade, Fossilized Amber, and Black Soot.


I then used some Bristol Smooth Card Stock and ink blended Tumbled Glass for the sky and Salty Ocean for the water. I used Broken China Distress Oxide to stamp the waves. 

I used Tea Dye to do a wash of color onto some water color paper. I just free hand cut out to make the sandy area. 


I used the stitched rectangle die from my beloved MFT Blueprint 13 Die-namics to cut out the sand and the background piece. 

There is a light shining stamp in the kit but i instead smoothed the Squeezed Lemonade onto some paper and then freehand cut it out like the stamp is but bigger. I then used some Wink of Stella onto the light to add some sparkle.


I used the clouds that came in the die set but I thought were too plain. I used the Marvy Snow pen to literally make those clouds puffy. this was my first time using it and man I was not disappointed!


As always, thank you so much for coming by and I will see you next time!

Color Throwdown #443 using MFT Bundle of Baby Clothes Dienamics and Welcome Baby Stamp Set




Happy Wednesday and welcome back to another Color Throwdown Challenge.

Unlike last week, I knew exactly what I wanted to use when 
I saw that the colors were Turquoise, Grey, Yellow and White for challenge #443

.


I have been waiting for Simon Says Stamp to get the Bundle of Baby Clothes Die-namics set back in stock and like fate..the package arrived today. 

The background was made with Distress Inks

Clouds: Avery Elle Pierced Clouds Die set & Tumbled Glass Distress Ink

Grass: Mowed Lawn Distress Ink 

Sun: Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink and Tim Holtz Rays Layering Stencil 


I die cut all the baby clothes and line using the MFT Bundle of Baby Clothes Die-namics and my random stash of pattern paper and card stock.  I also used some glossy accents onto the stars.


The sentiments on the inside and outside were stamped with Versafine and I used Recollections Clear Embossing powder for the one on the front of the card. 


Thank you so much for stopping by and hopefully I will see you next week for another challenge!
