Miss Ink Stamps - Gelli Plate Leftovers Are The Hippest

Yesterday I was up on the Miss Ink Stamps blog here sharing a card using some panels from a Gelli Plate session and today I'm using some of the "extra" "reject" panels... which I am loving!

I created a Mini Slimline using some new AJVD dies for today and cut one of the layers from a leftover panel and some more bubbles with a Memory Box die.  I also used the leftover panel for my sentiment.

I am so in love with these baby hippos from Miss Ink along with all of the other images and sentiments on this set, Hippo Hooray!

For this one, rather than stamping the seaweed directly onto the panel, I used the images from the stamp set... stamped, colored and fussy cut.

I'm really bad about stating the Copic colors I've used on my projects usually because by the time I am writing up my blog post I've forgotten.  And I do have a few favorite combos, but I got this idea from a friend and I think it will work out just fine!  I will try to always include something like this for each post going forward for those who want to know.  Actually it's a good reminder for me too!

That's me for today!  Thanks so much for stopping and hope you'll come again soon!

Krafty Chicks Challenge #461 - Anything But A Card

Welcome to my last post as Guest DT over at the Krafty Chick's Challenge!  This week the challenge is Anything But A Card so I decided to create this mixed media canvas for my Craft Room!

I picked up this awesome chipboard saying from White Rose Crafts with my winnings from their monthly challenge.. along with a few other things... you can find that here!

I used Acrylic Paints, some Gold Texture paste (along with an awesome stencil from Stamplorations!), that cool chipboard cup from Southern Ridge Trading Company and some flowers and gems from my stash.

Oh... and did I mention that beautiful gold heart??  That's from Spellbinders/FSJ and I just picked some more up on clearance... LOVE them!

I'm playing along over at Simon Says Stamp's Anything Goes Wednesday Challenge!  And I'm also playing along over at Stamplorations Mixed Media Challenge which is Anything Goes (Must use a stencil)!  Check them both out!

So thank you so much for stopping by... I apologize if you stopped by earlier and my post was incomplete... I think my canvas says it all.. "Adulting IS Hard!!"  but I've had my coffee and here we are!

Huge thanks to the gals over at Krafty Chicks for having me this month!  It's been a blast!  Be sure to continue to check out these fun weekly challenges... I know I will!

CAS-ual Fridays Stamps New Release-Just Breathe!

It's Day 6 of the CAS-ual Fridays New Release Inspiration!  Today we're showing off the new Just Breathe Fri-Dies.  You can get all of the new products in the shop now!  Here's how I was inspired:

You don't know how excited I got when I saw this die set!  A couple years ago I chose Breathe as my word and I searched high and low for a die... I found some stamp sets and I even bought a couple... but I really wanted a die... and when I saw this one, it was perfect!

I decided I needed to do something special with this one... something for me that I could hang in my room and just stop and remind myself every once in a while.  So I pulled out a mini canvas and pulled out some paints and gold texture paste and went to work!

I started by painting my canvas with some metallic acrylic paint in a deep but bright blue.  While it was still wet, I swiped in a little bit of Heidi Swapp Gold Color Shine... I was splattering it on something else and rather than just letting the extra run down the sink, I decided to use it here.

While it was drying, I cut the Just Breath from some brushed gold foil cardstock and then 3 times from some turquoise cardstock to stack them.  I wanted them to be really durable and like chipboard.

Once the painted base was dry, I pulled out the new Starlequin Stencil and used it to apply some gold texture past to my canvas in both corners.  While that was drying I pulled out some goodies... a nylon flower that I received in a package of goodies from Yvonne Yam some time ago... that wonderful old key that I received in a package of goodies from the oh so talented Mitralee... 

A flower I crocheted from some gold yarn with a button I picked up at a second hand store.. some paper flowers, gold bling gems, a whole bunch of my favorite things..I attached them all with some liquid glass.  And then my favorite goodie of all... as good as these Just Breathe dies...

Another treasure from my box of goodies from Mitra...this dangly jewel... I used the tails from the crocheted flower to tie it on and I left the tails on purpose because I like them!

I'm going to enjoy seeing this in my room... now to decide where to hang it....

I'm playing along at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge which is Anything Goes this week!  I'm also playing along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge which is Play With Paint!  I'm also playing along at the Outlawz Twisted Thursday with Favorite Product or Technique.  I have so many favorites on here, but one of my very favorite products is a great Word Die.. and my favorite technique with them is to cut multiples and stack them for a 3D look.  And even better when I can attach them so they are suspended, like on this little canvas!

Thank you for stopping today and I hop you enjoyed it!  Be sure to hop on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Blog and see what everyone has created for you and find out how you could win some of the new products!  Should you decide to shop, I have this for you:

We've got one more day of inspiration for you tomorrow!  Come back!
