Marble technique


I  wanted to make some kind of background for a card so that I could just use the big saying from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set, so I thought I'd go with the Marble technique, but I haven't done that in a long time, so I just searched a quick video by Stampin'Up! and gave it a try! 


You will need shaving cream (Not shaving gel), some re-inkers, spatula & something to hold your shaving cream in.  I'm using a retired wood block case.

The colors I started out with were Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana & Misty Moonlight.


Then for the 2nd panel, I added BumbleBee and came up looking like this.  I really liked this one!


And then I decided to add Magenta Madness.  


Hope you give this 'Marble' technique a try with different colors & see what you come up with! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Candy Canes Stamp set

This was one of the gifts I received in my Maui box when we had opted-out of the Maui incentive trip due to Covid19!  It came with many other cool products & gifts! So I finally dug it out to play with it last night, but if you know me, you hear me say how I'm more of a copier than a designer! lol Well I just happened to go back to a sketch challenge from a FB group and thought I would give it a try, so instead of DSP, I decided to stamp the Candy Canes stamp on a 4 1/8'' x 5 3/8'' Basic White cardstock, using Real Red ink. Then I cut the bottom off in a diagonal cut.  (Used the bottom piece inside my card) You can do the swirls 2 ways, either white on red, or red on white.   And then I made these other 2 cards which I cased from Pinterest, I'll put the link on each names so that they get the credit, plus you can find the products used.   For this card, I got the idea from a card made by the talented  Mikaela Titheridge .  I just stamped my greeting twice so

 As many of you know, the new mini catalogue went live on January 4th, plus the new Sale-a-Bration brochure is in force!!! I started playing with the new products I received so far! The first 2 cards were made using the Dainty Flowers DSP you get for FREE with a $60 CAD order during Sale-a-Bration (Jan & Feb 2023)  This paper coordinates with the Dainty Delight Bundle , it is $74.50 CAD, so by ordering this bundle, you qualify for the pack of DSP for free! I love how this paper looks textured, similar to watercolor paper! Here's a close-up... I used the Medium Daisy punch & a small circle punch for the center. And for these 2 cards, I used the Favored Flowers DSP you also get for Free with a $60 purchase during SAB!   There is a coordinating bundle called Fragrant Flowers that is $67.50, so if you get that, it would qualify you for this paper, or you can order something else.  I simply fussy-cut the flowers from this beautiful pack of paper for both of my cards!      An

2021 Christmas card making

 Wish Christmas was still a month away, we just don’t have enough time to play with all of the Holiday stamp sets! 🤪  So here are a few of the ones I either made in my own time or while my stampin’ buddy, Diane S, was here to visit. Many are inspired by cards found on Pinterest, so I can't take credit for them, except for a few.
