Miss Ink Stamps - You're Still Hot

Made a cool background with some EVO Paper, Alcohol Inks and added foil with Transfer Gel Duo and the Lava Lamp Stencil.

To this fiery background I added a heart and lips from Postage Hearts and a sentiment from the Perfect Match set!

Sending You A Rainbow

Hey friend!  So glad you're back!  I've got some alcohol ink on EVO paper for you today!  I had a girls' weekend a while ago with a friend and made a bunch of alcohol ink backgrounds and I thought it was time to put them to use!

I decided I'd cut those great butterflies from Waffle Flower Stamps out of one of them.  I mounted it on that fab grooved paper from my last Your Paper Insider quarterly box!  I cut the rainbow word die from that awesome sequin glitter paper also from the box and added one of the sentiments from the Waffle Flower Rainbow Stamp and Die combo.  I used my circle punch to cut out circles from the scraps and used them as gems... I adhered them with glue and added Glossy Accents over the top!  

I'm playing along over at Double Trouble Challenge Blog with my rainbow of butterflies!  I didn't use the sketch for the twist, but you can for more chances to win and to link up with their partner!

That's it!  Easy peasy!  Thanks so much for stopping!  Hope you'll come again soon!

Hello Butterflies - Thermoweb

Welcome back!  I've got some pretty butterflies for you today with some alcohol inked EVO panels, Deco Foil and Adhesive Transfers!

I actually created this one a while ago and started this post and forgot about it!  I'm not sure how because Iove this one, but I did.

I alcohol inked a couple panels of EVO paper and while the ink was still tacky, I added some foil to it using some of my used sheets.  I sprayed Glitter Dust over the yellow panel. In fact, I haven't done this in a while and think it's time I got my alcohol inks out again and played a bit!

I used the Oh Hello Adhesive Transfers from Therm O Web for the sentiment directly onto the alcohol inked panel.  I love that you can apply the adhesive transfers with or without heat!

Then I die cut the Flying Butterflies from the yellow panel and glued the frame to the blue panel and then added the butterflies, popping up their wings using varying thicknesses of foam tape.

That's me for today!  I hope you enjoyed it and you'll come again soon!

Welcome to the National Bubble Tea Day Collaboration Blog Hop with Trinity Stamps and the Coffee Loving Cardmakers!  We have lots of fun Bubble Tea inspiration for you using some awesome Trinity Stamps products AND you could win a $25 gift code to the Trinity Stamps shop just for hopping and leaving us all some love!

You probably came from Lisa's place!  And when you're done here you'll head on over to the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's Blog!

Here's how I was inspired:

I LOVE Bubble Tea.  I will admit the first time I tried it, I didn't much care for the gummy Boba.  And I still prefer mine with Poppers, but I will drink the Boba kind if Poppers aren't available.  My favorite is green Matcha tea with milk, half sugar and blueberry poppers.  It has probably been a year since I had any and maybe... just maybe... I'm treating myself to one right now!  I've had my jabs and life is slowly getting back to normal... whatever that is!

I started with the Slimline Die and cut it in white.  Then I cut the Slimline Rainbow 7 times in various colors.  Sometimes I'll just cut one in white and color it, but I wanted the leftover pieces to make many more rainbows so I picked some pretty papers and cut them up.  I lined them up at one end and used some foam tape to keep them together as I worked my way to the other end and then added it to the base.  One of the included clouds in glitter and My background was set!

I pulled out some ETC Papers EVO Synthetic Paper and my alcohol inks in various greens and created a panel that I used to cut out the cup from the Summertime Sips die set.  I cut a second cup in green.  You can cut apart the inside piece from the outside cup piece so you can cut them separately and have a one piece cup, but for now I've left them together for ease of using it for a shaker and I'm not sure yet if I'll cut them apart or not!  I added foam tape to the frame, threw some Midnight Ball Baubles and some green sequins and beads from my stash and placed the frame over the top of the alcohol inked cup cut.

The cap and straw were cut using some of the same papers I used for the rainbow and I built my sentiment using this awesome Sweet Senti-ment Mini die set and some stamped sentiments from the A Crafters Heart stamp set.

Hopefully as you are reading this I've already sent this one out to it's intended recipient!

Miss Ink Stamps - Heavenly Day!

Welcome!!  Hope you put on your sunglasses before you popped over here!  I've got some color for you today!

I had some fun with Evo Paper, Alcohol Inks and Texture paste again and with that gorgeous Stained Glass Floral stencil...sure does make me happy!

I added a little bit of holographic glitter before the alcohol ink was dry again...and some of the inks are Pearls so I'm loving the shine on that background.  And it was fun to color that banner in a rainbow pattern to match the background... as well as the flowers!

And along with these beautiful images from Little Angel and Springtime Banners... This would be heaven to me.

Thanks so much for stopping!  I hope you enjoyed your visit and that  you'll come back again soon!

 

We're All Mad Here!

I mean... we are right???  At this point I'd say it's a pretty safe statement...lol!

Had some fun with this one!  I started with a panel of EVO Synthetic paper and applied clear texture paste through the Rabbit Hole Stencil.  While that dried, I stamped, cut and colored my image from Tea Party and heat embossed the sentiment from Madness in purple and cut it out.

Once the texture paste was dry, I dropped some alcohol inks in green (including a beautiful Pearl variety) over the stenciled paste and used Blending Solution and a hand blower to move it around.  I LOVE how this turned out and will be playing with this some more for sure!

While the background dried I finished up with the rest of the elements and then popped them up over the swirly background.  I added another sentiment from the Madness stamp set and a few sequins and done!

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