<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: small;">I'm really happy you've stop by today. I'm back, sharing another card I created for the Stampers Anonymous booth at Creativation 2020 using new Tim Holtz stamps. The snark is strong with this one and it's oh so funny!!! Do you ever come across a stamp set that when you look at it you just can't quit smiling or you laugh out loud or just maybe snort thru your nose...well this would be that stamp set for me. The new Snarky Cat stamp set's hilarious, let me walk you thru how I put my card together.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcX8a_ZQHhNBUrcz0ZbOcFO418Y8jvLmnqvdTofTQuo8zAl0DBNJjm46CufCreKTHru8CD3b_i9LrwljiNHjMlC6XoiMOP08EU-u6VpETEes14CRmcymweS9lwnW_79tWbON4WR78fQzY/s1600/IMG_6920.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcX8a_ZQHhNBUrcz0ZbOcFO418Y8jvLmnqvdTofTQuo8zAl0DBNJjm46CufCreKTHru8CD3b_i9LrwljiNHjMlC6XoiMOP08EU-u6VpETEes14CRmcymweS9lwnW_79tWbON4WR78fQzY/s400/IMG_6920.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To start with, I stamped the cat image along with the birthday phrase on a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 sheet of Distress Watercolor Cardstock using Black Soot Distress Archival Ink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3eFXNmVcClByS9zuz4WUoBnhdWEwWLu34mzUiGkrSFkkFxfx1xH7hAkGe8lxquszYV5WZ0LqDNp0fMpJxZP9psQ8CZohncAsuJuQ9H3AaaCHNizrViDRoEgdC7yY1R1BCGlAWsda_6tc/s1600/IMG_6816.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3eFXNmVcClByS9zuz4WUoBnhdWEwWLu34mzUiGkrSFkkFxfx1xH7hAkGe8lxquszYV5WZ0LqDNp0fMpJxZP9psQ8CZohncAsuJuQ9H3AaaCHNizrViDRoEgdC7yY1R1BCGlAWsda_6tc/s400/IMG_6816.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I selected several orange-ish Distress Ink colors to watercolor with using a detail waterbrush. I smeared inks onto my Glass Media Mat and picked up color with waterbrush. I wanted him to look a bit like a tabby cat with a white tummy. I must confess I don't have any cats however, I have two long-haired Chihuahua that occasionally think they're cats, lol. I'm secretively hoping/wishing for Snarky Dogs next...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I stamped the cat image on some plain printer paper and cut out, to create a mask.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I placed the mask over the colorized cat image, using a little repositionable adhesive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I used a combination of Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress Oxide Inks and a Distress Blending Brush to create the outer color on the panel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMRwK-YKJwVR52C-990EW0uYTnsoFSf1WGdy9K44ZUoVm_iClhcTSBAETJ3-9rgfbZ9vBKZGzsbp5I_A5b1iTEoWA9eYjYgeKkbwo-gJMywVdWx07as8pOp1zW8lbLvABTYoFrBgG7T10/s1600/IMG_6821.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMRwK-YKJwVR52C-990EW0uYTnsoFSf1WGdy9K44ZUoVm_iClhcTSBAETJ3-9rgfbZ9vBKZGzsbp5I_A5b1iTEoWA9eYjYgeKkbwo-gJMywVdWx07as8pOp1zW8lbLvABTYoFrBgG7T10/s400/IMG_6821.JPG" width="400" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I left the mask in place and flicked a little Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Spray on the panel then carefully lifted the mask away.</div>

I die cut the panel using the largest Sizzix Tim Holtz Stacked Postage thinlits die. Then used a craft knife to cut the silhouette of the right paw out, to hold the balloon string.</div>

I stamped and diecut the balloon, string and bowtie from the Crazy Things stamp and die set using a sheet of Distress Watercolor Cardstock. They fit Snarky Cat perfectly! I colored the balloon with a couple of yellow distress ink colors and the bowtie with a couple of red distress ink colors using a blending tool with foam.</div>

The card base is a basic A2 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, using kraft card stock. Then three panels were trimmed for layering accordingly (black, kraft & orange). Before adhering the orange panel, I did stitch around the border. I adhered all panels with Distress Collage Medium Matte.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">I'm so happy you've stopped by today! I'm sharing another card I made for the Stampers Anonymous booth at Creativation 2020 using new Tim Holtz stamps & stencils. This new "Spring Shadows" is such a sweet stamp set and so versatile. Let me walk you thru how I put it together.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">To start with, I cut 3 pieces of Tim Holtz Mixed Media Heavystock 4 1/4 x
5 1/2. Painted a thin layer of Dina Wakley Media White Gesso onto the
Heavystock panels. Then dried with a heat tool.</span></div>

I used a sheet of sticky grid to secure my colorized panel to the glass media mat. I tell ya, if you haven't tried that sticky grid yet...its a beautiful thing! It's a must have in my tool box kit. I placed the new Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Bouquet Stencil at an angle over the top of panel and secured with painters tape. I applied a thin layer of transparent gloss texture paste to panel, using a palette knife. Then very carefully lifted the stencil from the panel and washed stencil/palette knife immediately. I set the panel aside to air dry and moved on to other steps.</div>

Now for the heat embossing! I prepared the other two colorized panels by swiping an anti-static pouch over the surface. This is going to ensure that none of my embossing powder's will stick in places I don't want them to stick.</div>

So here's where it gets interesting. Have you used the new Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Glazes yet? They are transparent and come in the Distress color palette but take a look closer look...

The longer I applied heat the more speckling I achieved. Word of warning though, this is a nice solid image so it could take a lot more heat. If you are embossing something with a very thin lines as with anything else, too much heat will make the embossing powder disappear into the paper.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And now that my texturized panel is dry, I get to add some color. I started by applying several soft colors of distress crayon to raised portions of panel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5b9o6X1drzyksmdfa9OPO95WfKQmTl-27jwury-8a_WrN39WfmEj_4_LCNYZQRBgsH_lQjUW9JVjfuvtUfycgj7s5tIIcLkET06Ls29PHdJhwxbraYuOaJT80cZTFwXoKJsjnZXsmiI/s1600/IMG_6844.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5b9o6X1drzyksmdfa9OPO95WfKQmTl-27jwury-8a_WrN39WfmEj_4_LCNYZQRBgsH_lQjUW9JVjfuvtUfycgj7s5tIIcLkET06Ls29PHdJhwxbraYuOaJT80cZTFwXoKJsjnZXsmiI/s400/IMG_6844.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I smeared the various colors of crayon around the panel and moved the
color into nooks and crannies with my fingers. Anything that I wanted to
lift the excess distressed crayon from, I just used a dry towel on. Any stubborn areas, I just gave a squirt of water on my towel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO14Hs2AiepRIiyikpiT5QI9XkNa52Abfs-QD-L8e6CDvXSj_4ctZZJo7kFUJOTIePd2L2zRpah8JKD9uLefsCpvWUdPW2d8GbhsVdrUUEiLNE0-w2IeARbqcoZlhTbHRTtdBEdBbnmqY/s1600/IMG_6845.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO14Hs2AiepRIiyikpiT5QI9XkNa52Abfs-QD-L8e6CDvXSj_4ctZZJo7kFUJOTIePd2L2zRpah8JKD9uLefsCpvWUdPW2d8GbhsVdrUUEiLNE0-w2IeARbqcoZlhTbHRTtdBEdBbnmqY/s400/IMG_6845.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I went in very lightly and added darker neutrals.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBH3zI57UXT431pTAWit7T1ePvq4L1EKgNYcIoLuFXU60vLhlmYMJJBmlsEmO5dAzstC3O7z9WSUEhDvmggjBpMvy4cyHI8mdrDhWHvOYCFxmi1IQil1Y0SB8roMgTSpO0Ttsb-tZvRsA/s1600/IMG_6846.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBH3zI57UXT431pTAWit7T1ePvq4L1EKgNYcIoLuFXU60vLhlmYMJJBmlsEmO5dAzstC3O7z9WSUEhDvmggjBpMvy4cyHI8mdrDhWHvOYCFxmi1IQil1Y0SB8roMgTSpO0Ttsb-tZvRsA/s400/IMG_6846.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then a touch of metallics.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy_W8BDckfkMAtuXJHRxGy1KxDd5JuLkxfV8gOSUnVc4moPh6ZFCt6mAxuURSZg0309FL_uDy9saR-R8IiWOEg5D8BRn2ecTbS3Bc0_WdVfSKrrjgNl_HM9oQLlGy-7pjlEDR4lzzcGWs/s1600/IMG_6847.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy_W8BDckfkMAtuXJHRxGy1KxDd5JuLkxfV8gOSUnVc4moPh6ZFCt6mAxuURSZg0309FL_uDy9saR-R8IiWOEg5D8BRn2ecTbS3Bc0_WdVfSKrrjgNl_HM9oQLlGy-7pjlEDR4lzzcGWs/s400/IMG_6847.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's so dreamy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I just added a bit of shading to the eggs using Walnut Stain Distress Crayon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu5Yjocw0JiahNDzS4mTKUGDIMmA80D05vrykPsNKvaS1kT7n32u3v1Lz5f9fxgEFw8TdlbEPVpa53Zj4Bqw1a4ESC5X30g56ygKdvvW1TYVloOrWuwvV6qW5n5GnE_zNsJjRZ0d4290A/s1600/IMG_7046.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1300" data-original-width="1300" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu5Yjocw0JiahNDzS4mTKUGDIMmA80D05vrykPsNKvaS1kT7n32u3v1Lz5f9fxgEFw8TdlbEPVpa53Zj4Bqw1a4ESC5X30g56ygKdvvW1TYVloOrWuwvV6qW5n5GnE_zNsJjRZ0d4290A/s400/IMG_7046.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bunnies received just a touch of Black Soot Distress Crayon for shading.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
A few flicks of watered down white gesso to the textured panel and eggs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I almost didn't want to cover up that pretty pattern!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I sanded a bit of a blackout panel to expose some of the underlying kraft.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOvoQC94IymyW2NZHYv_Rz_NV_FmEGaUq2zKG4SBnWZ1HktKBJrhm62XVU6sHyiou9mOoAFw-82Kb5dDgiLiv0-7ms7s52_7WJbOFnkWN0b6eF3tPFqaXis_NIswe4MWVZSzwg1j-WYu8/s1600/IMG_6849.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOvoQC94IymyW2NZHYv_Rz_NV_FmEGaUq2zKG4SBnWZ1HktKBJrhm62XVU6sHyiou9mOoAFw-82Kb5dDgiLiv0-7ms7s52_7WJbOFnkWN0b6eF3tPFqaXis_NIswe4MWVZSzwg1j-WYu8/s400/IMG_6849.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then started to assemble my card. The card base is an A2 kraft cardstock base. Then the blackout panel was attached using Distress Collage Medium Matte. I did do some stitching on the texturized panel. Then added the oval frame using foam squares.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I attached the bunnies, eggs, leaves and mummy cloth with a combination of distress collage medium matte and foam squares.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I made a banner from the stamped phrase and cut a notch out of one end.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I adhered the metal idea-ology bow and key, using distress collage medium matte. Then attached the craft thread bow to the banner and panel.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Thanks so much for stopping by today! I was so excited to be invited to create samples for Creativation 2020 Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous and Ranger. I encourage you to go to Tim's website and watch his Stampers Anonymous 2020 Facebook Live replay (<a href="https://timholtz.com/2020-stampers-anonymous/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #76a5af;">HERE</span></a>). All the amazing makers and their wonderful creativity is just incredible, you don't want to miss it! Today I'm sharing a couple of cards I created using new Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous "The Professor 2" and "Tiny Text" stamp sets.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;"> This first card was for the Stampers Anonymous booth. To start with, I colorized a couple sheets of Distress Mixed Media Heavystock. I misted the cardstock with water, spritzed with Pumice Stone and Frayed Burlap Distress Spray Stain. Then dried with a heat tool.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I stamped the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Professor 2</span> image using Black Soot Distress Archival ink, positioning him just to the right of the panel. I wanted his face to be a little lighter than the background, so I did a little ink lifting. I just swiped some water onto his face using a Detailed Distress Waterbrush and blotted the moisture with a clean dry paper towel. Then dried with a heat tool.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I started layering images with some simple masking techniques. I stamped the professor and the number wheel on plain printer paper, cut out and used as a mask. I used a handful of Distress Archival Ink colors to stamp my images.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">I heat embossed one of the phrases from the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Tiny Text</span> stamp set "faraway places + daring adventures", using a scrap of the colorized heavystock.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">I embossed with the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Distress Embossing Glaze in Hickory Smoke</span>. This is a wonderful neutral color you can use on just about anything. It has many unique properties to it. I'll be sharing several more cards in the coming weeks using the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Distress Embossing Glaze</span>, made for Creativation 2020.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">I distressed a panel of blackout cardstock using a sanding grip, to expose some of the underlying kraft. Just make sure your craft area is protected with a scrap piece of paper before sanding.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXwvVh1tXytL8rhp88uxL7SOuBq5q6S_dE_qFRAoWrniC2XeoNlmsVPPYFhX1dFY-3khUFhiHvUjy7py3debb0ePu13Dy2h5vOJnw-Re8J5Mre1_FYXi1ji0PVKZ5faOC7BD_8uilM7QU/s1600/IMG_6849.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1400" data-original-width="1400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXwvVh1tXytL8rhp88uxL7SOuBq5q6S_dE_qFRAoWrniC2XeoNlmsVPPYFhX1dFY-3khUFhiHvUjy7py3debb0ePu13Dy2h5vOJnw-Re8J5Mre1_FYXi1ji0PVKZ5faOC7BD_8uilM7QU/s400/IMG_6849.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">I cut a piece of kraft cardstock to make an A6 4.5" x 6.25" card base. Then cut a panel of cardstock from the dapper paper stash collection for layering. I trimmed the embossed phrasing to fit top panel. All paper pieces were shaded using some Distress Walnut Stain Ink and a blending tool. I also added just a touch of color to the professors cheeks using a smidge of Tattered Rose Distress Ink. You want a very dry application or it will look too heavy/blotchy. Before I started assembling my card, I did a little sewing around the border of my top panel...adding the embossed phrase as I was sewing.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">I applied a touch of Distress Candied Apple Paint to the game spinners and hardware head. Then dried with a heat tool and glued in place using Distress Collage Medium Matte.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">I wanted the professors goggles to have a little shine to them, so I applied glossy accents.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">This second card was made for the Ranger Creativation 2020 booth. The stamped image positioning is very similar to the first card. I used the same color palette. The phrase"Go+See+Explore" is from the new Tiny Text stamp set as well.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">The main difference is the "Baggage Check 755" image from the Professor 2 stamp set. You might notice that the color really pops, that's because I used the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Distress Embossing Glaze in Fired Brick</span>. It has a wonderful translucent quality to it. You can see the faint stamped imagery behind the embossing glaze. Most embossing powder's are opaque...not all of them, but a lot of them. I also love that the new <span style="color: #76a5af;">Distress Embossing Glazes</span> are in the Distress Color Palette.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">I distressed the compass coin, hex fastener and game spinner with a little Iced Spruce Distress Paint and Mushroom Alcohol Ink. I assembled everything much like the first card.</span><br />

Hi everyone, I'm glad you've stopped by today! I'm sharing one of the Tim Holtz Sizzix Creativation Booth projects I made. This one is spotlighting that awesome new filament die. I've got a lot of bright ideas for this one... pun intended (ha,ha,ha).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnT5GMu9ise4luRAnBzjZY2q415ovflkiqrLg5i0MgKDtoG-daiiR3FJ5stIW2LsAPgozxkL4wGVPzOtMR_BNUvHeemGoSHcl-I8IuRB2xcxVd-14Wa-Bk0Om9kT7cdxJ6szm4V4gu-WM/s1600/IMG_5606.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnT5GMu9ise4luRAnBzjZY2q415ovflkiqrLg5i0MgKDtoG-daiiR3FJ5stIW2LsAPgozxkL4wGVPzOtMR_BNUvHeemGoSHcl-I8IuRB2xcxVd-14Wa-Bk0Om9kT7cdxJ6szm4V4gu-WM/s640/IMG_5606.JPG" width="480" /></a></div>
Let me walk you thru how I put it together. First I die cut the clear portion of the filament bulb from leftover product packaging. You know the plastic/acrylic packaging that the Sizzix Bigz dies come in... if you don't have any of that laying around, you could always cut it from a sheet of thin acrylic. I also think mica sheets would be really great for this too, but the stock I had on hand was just a little too short. Then for the filament, fuse and screw cap... I attached a sheet a foil tape to a sheet of heavystock to give the foil tape a little more stability. Then die cut using the filament die.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used several different colors of distress paint and a sponge to pounce color onto all parts of the bulb. Then followed up with additional distressing using mushroom alcohol ink.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXjxUVNG8TkMZAzehPLfqKxSqMXVP5qrx0TiMg8i_TL7hxOIUlzRP-Q43vBWrD9OvA6R39FqinfQGDcxnfjltHQWBvDTWsvtyARRgrdRF4qkNZw_ZY8SQ6LT6ScbJvW1J5B41aJG707d0/s1600/IMG_6181.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXjxUVNG8TkMZAzehPLfqKxSqMXVP5qrx0TiMg8i_TL7hxOIUlzRP-Q43vBWrD9OvA6R39FqinfQGDcxnfjltHQWBvDTWsvtyARRgrdRF4qkNZw_ZY8SQ6LT6ScbJvW1J5B41aJG707d0/s400/IMG_6181.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
Now moving onto the background. I attached another sheet of foil tape to a sheet of heavystock and ran it through my vagabond using the mechanics 3D texture fades embossing folder. I absolutely love Tim Holtz's line of Sizzix 3D Texture Fades! Again, I applied several different colors of distress paint then buffed a lot of the color off using a fine steel wool. (When using the steel wool please wear protective gloves or you will be super itchy.) To give it a little more distress, I applied mushroom alcohol ink.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The mini framed panel was colored with distressed paint and shaded with distressed crayon. I gave the mechanics background a little trim before attaching it to the back of the panel using distress collage medium matte.<br />

I used some distress crayon and mushroom alcohol ink to the quote band. Then attached with a little linen ribbon, craft thread and long fastener brads.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Let me walk you thru how I put it together. To start with, I pulled some small patterned paper from the memorandum paper stash collection. I trimmed down the pattern papers. Then attached paper pieces overlapping some areas, to a small etcetera tag using collage medium.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi15B0Cw97TTpwHoc41UChNq-Xbw6JAI6DvCmJXs-Tjhmvzp9VgLXgCeoZwsMW2ttO15NkdZvGVNeXprW5v8m1nb1rKiLp6AJ_bulr8GwzzYM_yNPaYKtF57vQQckc57RN-0H0KHgbMiZ8/s1600/IMG_5603.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi15B0Cw97TTpwHoc41UChNq-Xbw6JAI6DvCmJXs-Tjhmvzp9VgLXgCeoZwsMW2ttO15NkdZvGVNeXprW5v8m1nb1rKiLp6AJ_bulr8GwzzYM_yNPaYKtF57vQQckc57RN-0H0KHgbMiZ8/s400/IMG_5603.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
Then I die cut the phrase "make every day count" using the Society Bigz XL alphabet and the Adorned Thinlits intricate scrolls from mixed media heavystock. The mini detailed butterflies were diecut using more of the memorandum paper stash. You know I was actually thinking, even though this alphabet is on a larger scale...

I arranged the wording and scrolls to my liking and glued in place using more collage medium and then went over the entire tag with another layer of collage medium to seal the surface and allow the distressed crayons to move much easier. I trimmed any paper pieces hanging off the edges. I chose several neutral colors of distressed crayons. I smeared the various colors of crayon around the tag and moved the color into nooks and crannies with my fingers. Anything that I wanted to lift the excess distressed crayon from, I just used a dry towel on.<br />

I broke the ruler and distressed it using some walnut stain distress ink. Then attached the mini detailed butterflies and ruler with you guessed it more collage medium, I tell you that stuff is the best glue I use on everything! The tag received a small splattering of white (watered down) gesso.<br />

To finish it off I dyed some crinkle ribbon with a few different blue hues of distress spray stain dried well and tied into a bow.</div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Hi everyone, I'm glad you stopped by today! I've decided to update the blog. I've been thinking about updating for several months now...yes I'm a HUGE over thinker (wink). The blog update is definitely overdue and time for a new look! I started my blog back in December of 2011 mainly to promote in person paper crafting classes I taught and in store design team projects. That seems like such a long time ago and I do most things online now. So with all that being said, please excuse my dust as I make some changes...</span><br />

wonderful inspiration! I'd like to share a project that I created for

<span style="font-size: medium;">To start with, I cut a piece of Tim Holtz Mixed Media Heavystock 4 1/4 x
5 1/2. Painted a thin layer of Dina Wakley Media White Gesso onto the
Heavystock panel. Then dried with heat tool. Then I selected a few bright colors of Distress Paint. The colors I used were Broken China, Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed. I also used and old gift card for this technique. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;">I added one drop (a little goes a long way) of paint to my glass media mat and scrapped some color onto the edge of my gift card. Then dragged the wet distress paint across my panel, leaving some areas white. Then dried with heat tool. The baby wipes are handy for easy clean up on the glass media mat.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;">I continued building color with paints, drying between each new color. Then added splatters with same color palette of Distress Paints.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: medium;">All of the new Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Media Marks stamps are SO much fun to play with, I plan on doing a lot of journaling with them as well! For this card I used the new Mini Media Marks (CMS364). I attached my colorized panel to the travel stamp platform. I placed my first stamp down and closed the top to pick up the stamp. I used black gesso to stamp with because it has a heavy body and it completely opaque. I squeezed a dollop onto the glass media mat and picked up with a small brayer.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: medium;">I inked the stamp using the gesso brayer and stamped onto the colorized panel. Clean your stamp right away, because once the gesso dries on the stamp it's almost impossible to get it off. I continued stamping/building my images until they were almost overlaping.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: medium;">Once I was finished stamping my panel I cut 6 imperfect circles out of it. I mounted them to a piece of kraft card. Then ran a stitch down the center of the circles using white thread on my sewing machine. I attached the panel to a black card base. I smeared a little Picket Fence Distress Crayon into the quote token to bring out the wording. Then attached some linen ribbon and craft thread to the top. To give it a little lift, I used some foam squares under the quote token.</span><br />

Then applied some opaque crackle paste with the Mini Falling Stars Layering Stencil to the prepared paper. Then I sprayed the paper with Distress Resist Spray (in a spray box). While still wet, I applied Rock Candy Glitter with a Glitter Duster. I colorized the Mini Woodland Trees with Cracked Pistachio Distress Spray Stains. The Decorative Deer were </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: medium;">distressed</span></span> with a little Pumice Stone Distress Paint.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Let's get started! I flipped the vignette box (I used the 2nd to smallest Vignette box, 4 x 2 7/8 x 1 1/8) and covered with polka dot paper. Those of you that know me, know I have a real thing for polka dots...I even have eyeglasses with polka dots...ha,ha,ha. Then painted the snowman and deer with a selection of Distress paints.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Hi everyone, I'm so glad you stopped by
today!
I had full intentions of sharing more wedding makes, squeezing it in right before Thanksgiving. I had an unexpected house full at Thanksgiving and I couldn't be happier! I love it when family comes together to creates special memories. Soooooo all things wedding sharing was put on hold, till now. Next
up are the "Wedding Invitations".</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">My sister wanted simple fall rustic wedding invitations, this is what I came up with.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I did manage to squeeze in just a bit of shading and distressing though (wink)!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJklv_FHJDBxh6FH-GWvpKakdj10fAwClxOK1BZHVxcKmRtwELJ3IERgtB3LanCmlUOgk0-LYQq2JHazRttDYZpyFgEK02gmp6LsjWCYvyTSQBVoAPPu39eDhs0j3keUM53_g5WSgtyvY/s1600/IMG_5171.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1395" data-original-width="1395" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJklv_FHJDBxh6FH-GWvpKakdj10fAwClxOK1BZHVxcKmRtwELJ3IERgtB3LanCmlUOgk0-LYQq2JHazRttDYZpyFgEK02gmp6LsjWCYvyTSQBVoAPPu39eDhs0j3keUM53_g5WSgtyvY/s400/IMG_5171.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I started off by coloring some Distress
Mixed Media Heavystock with a selection of Distress Stains. I spritzed
the heavystock with water. Then spritzed the distress spray stains
onto the heavystock.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5iENhrHZR3Rh67tgywpjBvqGMznfEA5HR_fvO68L4Iqw-X0fL3o0cY2YlyWuSu1JCbCUlNRqkaUd55m5g0JY1Tq6ccZc16uIu2mh1a98zzkEDHEpi7ptvQmuUS0FxLN3iNLMLV9fOV44/s1600/IMG_5172.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5iENhrHZR3Rh67tgywpjBvqGMznfEA5HR_fvO68L4Iqw-X0fL3o0cY2YlyWuSu1JCbCUlNRqkaUd55m5g0JY1Tq6ccZc16uIu2mh1a98zzkEDHEpi7ptvQmuUS0FxLN3iNLMLV9fOV44/s400/IMG_5172.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"> I spritzed some additional water onto heavystock to get the color moving. Then dried with a heat tool. I die cut the mini tattered leaves and did some shading with walnut stain distress ink.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGrn7AVZ-sMmIB8dOwrPHGEm1ZF44LFCKhXigaowbMjHFKfY87ApMY0pBo31M7LmSq0UtWdDmedo8vLxS4hl4yhVnt5D8xIVaPJmg15a-kVyVTIZTJ0X4exq1pHn3BOB4K-u9x365mW9Y/s1600/IMG_5173.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGrn7AVZ-sMmIB8dOwrPHGEm1ZF44LFCKhXigaowbMjHFKfY87ApMY0pBo31M7LmSq0UtWdDmedo8vLxS4hl4yhVnt5D8xIVaPJmg15a-kVyVTIZTJ0X4exq1pHn3BOB4K-u9x365mW9Y/s400/IMG_5173.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I painted a thin layer of white gesso onto
Heavystock. Then dried with heat tool. I squeezed a couple
drops Distress Paint onto glass media mat, and
lightly mist the paint with a Distress Sprayer using water. I pressed the
gessoed side of the Distress Heavystock into the paint mixture until
covered. Then dried with a heat tool. To add more distress, I picked up droplets
of color off the glass media mat with heavystock, blotting to
pick up the color (not swiping), then drying with heat tool. (I forgot to take a process photo of that step). I did this for both the black for the antlers and the brown for the branches.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I die cut the antlers from the Winter Wonderland die set and black colorized heavystock. The die I used was the larges deer, but I only used the antler portion. Now Tim has this great Cool Yule Thinlit set that would be perfect too! I printed all wedding info onto kraft cardstock, then backed on a dark brown panel. The RSVP's recieved 1 set of antlers. I used Distress Collage Medium Matte to glue antlers. This stuff is great, it dries clear and if you get a little too much on your project...it dries matte and is virtually impossible to see. It's one of those must have tools :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I punched the branches from the brown colorized heavystock using Tim's branch punch, just the right size. Then I punched the maple and oak leaves from the scraps of leaves die cut earlier.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">The small branches and leaves punch outs were attached to "The Details" panel. A pair of tweezers or pick me up came in really handy.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">At the time I had made these wedding invitations, I used the mini acorn from the movers and shapers dies. Now Tim
came out with this awesome little acorn in the Funky Foliage Thinlits, I
would have totally used it instead! I laser printed a whole sheet of
wording then die cut the acorn. I laid the gold minc foil over wording
and ran thru minc. Peel the foil off and you have pure magic. The
acorn detail took some time, but so worth it!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">To create the trifold base of the card, I started with a piece of 12x12 heavy kraft cardstock. Click on photo to view measurements and score lines.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I did a little shading with walnut stain distress ink around the edges of tri card base. Then attached a little score tape (you could use your favorite super heavy duty double sided tape) to right edge of bottom 3 inches to create the folder.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Now for the belly band. I spritzed a piece of kraft cardstock with a little water, then ran the Lumber 3-D folder thru 3 passes of vagabond or big shot die cut machine. I cut the strips down to 1 1/2 inches. I attached two strips together to create a belly band that would fit around the folded trifold card.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">The larger die cut leaves were layed out in groupings of 2, along with an acorn. I punched a super small hole in all 3 pieces and tied off a piece of jute string.</span></div>
