Miss Ink Stamps Release Day-Jungle Friends Dazzle

Hello!!  Well, it's here!  It's Release Day over at Miss Ink Stamps and all of the new stuff is available in the shop!  Today I'm using images from the Jungle Friends (the Snake), Jungle Kids (The plants) and Jungle Ruins (the palm tree) along with FOUR stencils; Rabbit Hole,Ins and Outs Hollywood,Leavy Green and Sparkles!

I used some of the Lucky Leprechaun Dazzle Dust for the outline and sparkles by mixing it with some Glossy Accents to make a glitter past.

The Rabbit Hole stencil just seemed perfect for this layout and sentiment.  Now be sure to head on over to Instagram and the Miss Ink's Pad Facebook group for more inspiration and then head over to the shop and check out all of the new sets!

Thanks so much for stopping!  Come again soon!

 

Miss Ink Stamps-New Stencil Release-Sending Hugs

Happy Friday!  Today I'm showing off another one of the new stencils over in the Miss Ink shop and I've created some Glitter Paste using the Pink Flamingo Dazzle Dust available in the shop mixed with Glossy Accents!

This is the new Heirloom Blooms stencil and don't you love how that Dazzle Dust changes colors... here you can see the difference where the light is shining brighter it's a soft opalescent pink and as you angle it it becomes a deeper flamingo pink!

It's perfect along with some images from Springtime Banners and the Alice Background and a simple sentiment from Everyday Sentiments.

Thanks so much for stopping!  I hope you enjoyed it and you'll come again soon!

Thanks for stopping!  See you over there!

Congrats on the New Kid! - Miss Ink Stamps

Welcome back!  I'm playing with glitter again!  This time around I've made a glitter paste with some Glossy Accents and the Mermaid Lagoon Dazzle Dust.  I applied it through the Diamond Fade Stencil for my background.

I set that aside to dry while I stamped, cut (with my Scan N Cut), and colored my images.  The balloons are from Punny Farm Pigs and the goat from Punny Farm Goats.  I added some clear wink of Stella to my balloons... I love that you can see it in this pic!

When I was done with that and my background was dry, I created my shaker using a frame from my stash.  I attached acetate to the back of the frame and then added pop up tape around the edges.  I layered my background onto a white cardstock panel and that onto a purple base.  Then I poured some of those so fun and pretty Dazzle stars over my background along with some clear and turquoise sequins.  I love that they go perfectly with the Mermaid Lagoon Dazzle Dust which shifts from purple to turquoise as you move it!

And the Dazzle Stars color shift too!  They go together perfectly!

And there you have it!  Just a touch of sparkle...lol!

I'm playing along over at Double Trouble's Again and Again Challenge!  Use three of something on your project!  I have three balloons!  And the twist is to use something from your stash and a critter... that frame die has been hanging around for a long time in my stash and it's been quite some time since I used it and a goat (obvi!)   And since I've used a critter and something from my stash, I'm playing along with DT's partner for this challenge, Use Your Stuff!  You should check both of these out!  Play along with both and you get extra chances to win at Double Trouble!

Thanks so much for stopping and hope you'll come again soon!

I Love You This Much! - Miss Ink Stamps

I'm playing with some Miss Ink Dazzle Dust again!  This time I've used the Pumpkin Patch Dazzle Dust along with the Unstoppable Stamp Set!  This adorable Dino has taken some time out during all of this chaos to try to show you exactly how much he loves you... with a little help from his grabber tools!  They sure do come in handy when you're a BIG dino with little tiny arms...

This is the Pumpkin Patch Dazzle Dust in the jar.  The colors shift from a Pumpkin-y orange to green!

It's hard to photograph the changes, but this pic has a pretty good representation of the Pumpkin Patch colors from that wooden butterfly, heart, and the rays.. and I used orange glitter paper below it and you can see how the glitter paper is pretty much the same orange from one end to the other compared to the burnished Dazzle Dust that appears to change as your eyes move across the picture.  Very cool in person as you move the card around!

 Is that a sunset, sunrise, or perhaps a huge meteor has just struck the earth and that's an explosion!  And that poor dinosaur amidst all of this chaos just wants you to know ... he loves you!  How much??  This much!

I love you guys too!  I appreciate every visit and comment and hope you'll come back soon for some more inspiration!

Sending Big Hugs - Miss Ink Stamps

I'm back again with some more Miss Ink Dazzle Dust!  Today I'm playing with the Rose Garden variety!

It's a beautiful pink to green shift that made me think of Spring!

I made a paste again by mixing the glitter along with some Glossy Accents and applied it through the Halftone Lines Bold Edges stencil.

Once it was dry, I laid it under my Misti and placed a heavy box on top of it because it was a little curly.  I left it over night and it worked very nicely to flatten it.  I used strong adhesive from Scrapbook Adhesives along all of the edges to be sure it stayed that way!  And the adorable bunny and beautiful florals and sentiment ribbon from Springtime Bunnies and Springtime Banners were perfect to decorate along with a sentiment from the Decaf Background set (I just curved it a little on my block so that it would fit perfectly in the banner).

And there you have it!  I think this would make a beautiful Springtime or Valentines card for anyone!

Thanks for stopping!  Be sure to come back soon and often for more inspiration!

I'm Here For You - Miss Ink Stamps

Hello!  I'm back with some more new Dazzle Dust from Miss Ink Stamps!  This time I'm playing with the Lucky Dazzle Dust and added it to some Glossy Accents to create a paste!

So pretty, right??

I added some of the Lucky Leprechaun Dazzle Dust to a jar and then squirted some glossy accents in, stirred with a spatula and tweaked it by adding a little of each until I had a consistency a little like embossing paste.  Then I placed the Leafy Green Stencil over the top of my tag and masked off the area I wanted to apply the paste to.  Using a spatula I applied the paste through the stencil and then removed the stencil.

While the paste was drying I colored my images from the Gardenia stamp set and dipped a wooden heart covered in Glossy Accents into the same glitter.

Finally the sentiment from Everyday Sentiments set and a few sequins and put it all together.

I'm playing along over at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge which is Use A Stencil this week!  I'm also playing along over at Simon Says Challenge on Instagram "Something New"... creating glitter paste is a new technique for me!  I've never done it before, but I can tell you I am definitely going to do it again! #SSSIGCHALLENGE

I'm loving this Dazzle dust... this one goes from a beautiful gold to a deep green.  Which color will you try first??

Thanks for stopping!  Hope you'll come again soon!

I've Goat You Dazzled Babe - Miss Ink Stamps

Woo hoo!  There's a new glitter in town!  If you like glitter you are gonna love the new Dazzle Dust available over at Miss Ink Stamps... it's a color shifting glitter and you can get it in 10 different color combos over in the shop right now!  Buy all 10 and get them discounted!  You can check them all out here!  Today I used the Fairy Dust and here's how I was inspired:

As you move the card (or as you move around the card) the colors seem to shift... this one goes from a beautiful greenish opalescent to a bold purple!  I used some bookbinding tape and placed it across my paper at intervals and then burnished the glitter 'til it was smooth and shiny... almost foil-ish to create the background.   It made the perfect backdrop for my cute little Valentines, using the Have Heart stamp set and those cutie pies from Punny Farm Goats!

  The next picture shows how these colors change from another angle....

I love how this one changes from the Opal color to a pink-ish purple to a deep rich purple!  Check out those hearts!  I painted some little wooden hearts black and then added glossy accents to the top and dipped them into the glitter.. that dark purple is the darkest color shift in this beautiful Fairy dust mix:

If you're afraid of glitter, stay tuned!  You'll be getting lots of not so scary ideas for using it from the designers at Miss Ink..like making a glitter paste!
