How cute are they? I made the ocean background by applying reinkers onto a waterproof mat, spraying with water to spread them out, and dragging the watercolor paper through the inks. I dried it with a heat gun and added another layer of color. When it was all dry, I flicked on some matching flecks of colors from my markers. The card base with made out of crumb cake cardstock stamped with the bubbles from the set in matching ink. <p></p><p>This set is available on my SU webpage www.barbaraking.stampinup.net</p><p>Thanks for stopping by!</p><p><br /></p>Barb Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17185066268046445380noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934537426064697775.post-54997967615985589132023-02-19T14:16:00.000-08:002023-02-19T14:16:04.440-08:00Oh Happy Day<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiameF2BCNxgv7xjn_ozx4fd2tRRKOUNAoNiMah-XVbB6L1mWOD2BuAeoiUDltAj8VxBhtCo49MBs53DsnakOM7h8jLXMGBgH9C1f-xUwL_2jLMeWaiogAeS3Fi05dbs-dgr_-ScpnjVA3Uv2Jr3ctKGPLPuxdaJo4v-MWOHYyjaqg_uEHF1T4T1DLW/s3097/Rabbit%20Oh%20happy%20day.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3097" data-original-width="2730" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiameF2BCNxgv7xjn_ozx4fd2tRRKOUNAoNiMah-XVbB6L1mWOD2BuAeoiUDltAj8VxBhtCo49MBs53DsnakOM7h8jLXMGBgH9C1f-xUwL_2jLMeWaiogAeS3Fi05dbs-dgr_-ScpnjVA3Uv2Jr3ctKGPLPuxdaJo4v-MWOHYyjaqg_uEHF1T4T1DLW/s320/Rabbit%20Oh%20happy%20day.jpeg" width="282" /></a></div><br /> How cute is this happy rabbit from the Playing in the Rain stamp set from Stampin Up?

It's from the Adorable Owl set, and I've been having fun stamping with this. I used an older heart shaped die set from SU, and cut the folded card base just below the fold, so that the hearts stayed together. The blue layer went on top of that with the smaller white heart with the stamped owl image centered on it. I colored it in with Stampin Blends. Fun card! <p></p><p>This set is available for free with a $50 order.

It is so versatile! You can stamp the hearts and leaves and cut them out with the punch, or use the pattern paper to do the same thing. On this card I punched out the stamped images and attached the hearts to a deckled edge piece of paper after I stamped the "I love that we are friends" sentiment.

I found the cute little sentiment from the Snowman Magic set to make a simple thank you card. <p></p><p><br /></p><p>You can see this set and many more on my SU page at www.barbaraking.stampinup.net</p><p>Thanks for coming by!</p>Barb Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17185066268046445380noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934537426064697775.post-17305914295755094722022-11-15T04:56:00.001-08:002022-11-22T04:26:33.701-08:00Aspen Tree Dies<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik4V2Etcd789P4tBUE5RC8uWwj7ZNrWkjp_vfgg51CreWZa2IN3Df01lQx8KaUa4ApeU3Atd7MAruriVNHZIVG1kMk_cixYy6-4CL7Sn7S5f5VU5abjssLAsstpTkxhyT8gQ-SOxRIn_9LI2LrFWR7M0to442qAJif6SAJVRxOLJMfODDDPTLC-7aR/s2642/FB1A4D44-5546-4D43-B3D8-A584B955C8FE.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2642" data-original-width="2185" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik4V2Etcd789P4tBUE5RC8uWwj7ZNrWkjp_vfgg51CreWZa2IN3Df01lQx8KaUa4ApeU3Atd7MAruriVNHZIVG1kMk_cixYy6-4CL7Sn7S5f5VU5abjssLAsstpTkxhyT8gQ-SOxRIn_9LI2LrFWR7M0to442qAJif6SAJVRxOLJMfODDDPTLC-7aR/s320/FB1A4D44-5546-4D43-B3D8-A584B955C8FE.jpeg" width="265" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><div style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; transition-property: none;"><div dir="auto" style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; transition-property: none;"><div class="x1iorvi4 x1pi30zi x1l90r2v x1swvt13" data-ad-comet-preview="message" data-ad-preview="message" id="jsc_c_8v" style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; padding: 4px 16px 16px; transition-property: none;"><div class="x78zum5 xdt5ytf xz62fqu x16ldp7u" style="animation-name: none; display: flex; flex-direction: column; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: -5px; margin-top: -5px; transition-property: none;"><div class="xu06os2 x1ok221b" style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 5px; transition-property: none;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" color="var(--primary-text)" dir="auto" style="animation-name: none; display: block; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.9375rem; line-height: 1.3333; max-width: 100%; min-width: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; transition-property: none; word-break: break-word;"><div class="xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs x126k92a" style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; transition-property: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto" style="animation-name: none; font-family: inherit; transition-property: none;">I love this Aspen Tree die from Stampin Up.

I do love watercolors, so I had to join in over at <a href="http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2015/01/cfc136.html">CAS-ual Fridays</a>, where the challenge is "Must Love Watercolors". This is a big bird, and watercolors are perfect for coloring in large spaces like this. I used my trusty Twinkling H2O's and tried to make it look like a bluebird....I think I am longing for some spring bird visitors. But instead we are receiving another foot of snow!<br />

I am taking the Online Card Class- Clean and Simple Cards 4, and I tried a new technique called Faux Tiles. The original example used a piece of 2 inch mat board, but since I didn't have any, I used a larger ArT Canvas, which has the same thickness. I covered the front with masking tape, and using the Simon Says Stamp Fresh Daisies die, I ran it through my big shot. After peeling away the masking paper on just the flowers, I colored in the daisies using distress inks and a round applicator. When they were all colored in, I peeled off the rest of the mast and inked the background in blue and let it dry well. Then I coated the whole front with Versamark Ink and embossed it. I gave it a second coat for some added smoothness and shine. I love this effect! The card front has a little gold spritz on it, and I added some gold thread behind the tile.<br />
<br />
I am linking up with <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge- Anything Goes</a>.<br />

I chose to make a clean and simple white on white card using an embossing folder and some die cut butterflies. I couldn't resist adding some Tim Holtz glitter to bling it up a bit. I went with a Wedding Day stamp with a swirly font to match the swirls around the butterflies. I don't think I've ever made a white on white card before, it has a very elegant look.</div>

I had the pleasure of visiting 3 beautiful beaches this summer in St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, Martha's Vineyard, and Ogunquit, Maine, and the visits inspired me to take out my Tim Holtz Nautical Blueprint set and make some cards. I found some watercolors in perfect ocean shades for the seahorse, and added a little sparkle with some TH glitter. I'm planning on sending this one off to the family I visited on the Vineyard. I'm linking this up to <a href="http://new.inlinkz.com//luwpview.php?id=436606">Less is More</a>, where the challenge is "Animals".<br />

The beautiful heart on this card was made with a stamp that had been inked with distress inks and then misted before it was stamped. I used 2 die cuts on the card, a heart from Stampin Up and the "you" die from Simon Says Stamp. This is another card inspired by the Online Card class that was all about watercolors for stampers. I'm linking this up to <a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/">Less is More</a>, where the challenge this week is to use die cuts, and <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/#">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge blog</a>, where anything goes!<br />

Another card inspired by the Watercolor for Cardmakers class. This delphinium stamp was so easy to ink up using markers. A little spritz of water and it was ready to stamp. I'm linking this up to<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/"> Less is More</a> where the theme is "Flowers". <br />

This one layer Thank You card is another one created with inspiration from the Watercolors for Card Maker class I am taking online (see previous post for more info). I have tried so many new techniques, and revisited some I had used before. This card was created using distress ink and lot of misting. I love all the depth the flower has from all the layering. The flowers are from a Stampin' Up set called "Too Kind", and the sentiment is from the "So Very Grateful" set.<br />
<br />
I am adding this to the<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/"> 1 Layer Thank You challenge at Less is More</a>, and linking up to the Online Card Class gallery.<br />
<br />
Have you tried this technique? Let me know how it worked for you!<br />

I took a little "blog break" and now I'm back with lots of inspiration from the <a href="http://www.onlinecardclasses.com/">Online Card Class Watercolors for Card Makers</a>. As soon as I read the description for this class, I knew it was perfect for me, since I love to use watercolors and distress inks on my projects. The colored background for this card was made by stamping distress ink on an acrylic block and then misting and applying to watercolor paper. It was one of the first techniques taught in the Online Card Class, and I love it! I placed a Simon Says Stamp diecut with fancy handwriting over it. It is quite large, and a perfect fit for the color blocked area.<br />
<br />
This fits in with the <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2014/04/handwriting-challenge-hip-on.html">Handwriting Challenge</a> over at the Moxie Fab World. <br />
<br />

I have one last Valentine to share with you before I pack away my Valentine stamps. This is a cute stamp from a Unity kit of the month. Don't you love banners? This one layer card has some sparkly hearts, too.

It seems like I've had my Valentine stamps out since New Years! I sell quite a few Valentines cards at local shops, so I came up several different designs that I could easily duplicate. I'm enjoying creating one layer cards, and made this for the<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/"> Less is More One Layer Challenge</a>. After I stamped the heart, I made a mask in the shape of the heart and the tiny flower. I masked off the card and the flower and sponged the heart shape with distress inks. When I was finished, I unmasked the flower and colored it in with a marker. I am also entering in this week's challenge over at <a href="http://casethissketch.blogspot.de/2014/02/case-this-sketch-64.html">CAS(E) this Sketch-</a><br />

I found this cute little stamp online, and have been having lots of fun making Valentines and Congratulations cards with it. This is a one layer card, with lots of Stickles added to the heart. I joining in the fun at <a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/">Less is More</a>, where it is one layer week, and the theme is Hearts.

Wow, I've had a bit of a blog break, and it feels so good to be creating again!<br />
<br />
I love the intricate design of these snowflakes, and this cute little reindeer with his knit scarf and sweater from Stampin Up.

This is one of the reasons I've been slacking on my blog posts- meet the newest member of our family, Rio. He is a purebred Golden Retriever who was found running loose in Louisiana. He was pulled from a high kill shelter by the group Labs 4 Rescue on his last day there after not being claimed by his owners. We adopted him about 2 months ago, and it has been a whirl wind ever since! He's a great dog, though, worth the work. <br />

The fall foliage in Massachusetts have been beautiful this year!. I was inspired to take out my Stampin Up set and use the maple tree stamp to make this card. It looks just like the tree at the end of my driveway. I used my Twinkling H2O's to paint it in on watercolor paper, and it was so easy to blend the colors.<br />
<br />
The challenge at <a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/">Less is More</a> this week is Trees, so this fits right in.<br />
