Mini Flakes Fireworks!



Hi everyone! How are you doing?

Today I'm sharing a funky card I made using the Gel-à-Tins Mini Retro Flakes and Mini Fancy Flakes sets!

I still see fireworks when I look at these little flakes! Maybe it's just me?! But anyway, I'm alright with that when it means I can create cards like this:


How funky is that?! I even managed to sneak in some trends while I was at it - with neon and ombre making an appearance!



I started by stamping my landmarks silhouette in black in and heat embossing with clear embossing powder. I then stamped all my flakes using watermark ink and heat embossing.


Next I blended my neon inks onto my card to create that fantastic sky! After that all I did was add the numbers at the top and that's all that was needed! I know it's been 2013 for quite some time but that doesn't mean we can't still celebrate a good year so far, right?!



Supplies Used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Mini Retro Flakes, Mini Fancy Flakes

Other:
International Skyline stamp (Hero Arts), Headline Alphabet stamp set (Papertrey Ink)
Neon Pink, Neon Yellow, Neon Orange inks (Hero Arts), Versafine Onyx Black ink, Versamark ink (Tsukineko)
Stamper's Select White cardstock (Papertrey Ink)
Clear Semi Dull Embossing Powder (WOW!)


I'll be back again soon to share another project, have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by!

Go For It!

Sometimes less is more! Using just a blank textured card and the gel-a-tins 'Banner Days' stamp I made a quick encouragement card.

 
Products Used
 
gel-a-tins 'Banner Days' Stamp Set
gel-a-tins 'Silver' gelly gems
Xyron 150 X
StazOn Ink Pad
Letraset Promarkers
 5"x7" Card Blank
 
I stamped the banner three times at an angle onto the card blank.  I coloured the pennants in using the promarkers.
 
 
I stamped the 'Go For It' onto the bottom right corner.
 

As a finishing touch cut strips from the gelly gems and ran them through the Xyron 150 X and placed along the top of the banners.

Happy Easter!

Easter is right around the corner and I'll be honest, while we celebrate Easter
every year I am terrible at making cards for the occassion.  This year I am
already done with two Easter cards thanks to the fun Easter Bunny collection of stamps.

Today I am sharing the first card I made using one of the bunny stamps.
Why only one of the bunny stamps?  Well, because this one looked like a marshmellow peep.


Doesn't that cute little bunny look like a marshmellow peep?

I stamped the three bunnies across the top and bottom of my white cardstock
using Quick Quote Powder Puff Claking Inks. I added black pearls to give them a
bit of dimention.


The "Happy Easter" sentiment is also a stamp included in the Easter Bunny
collection.  It is just a beautiful font!

Gel-A-Tins Stamps Supplies:
Easter Bunny Collection

Other Supplies:
Cardstock ~ Core'dinations
Stamping Cardstock ~ Papertrey Ink
Chalking Ink ~ Quick Quotes
Archival Ink ~ Ranger
Glues ~ Helmar

I hope you find Easter inspiration in something fun!

gel-a-tins Easter style

Can you believe that Easter is less than 2 weeks away? Are you ready gel-a-tins friends? Today I am sharing a CAS Easter card using the gel-a-tins Easter Bunnies stamp set.

Here is my gel-a-tins Easter creation:


I took the back of the egg stamp and inked it up with the purple ink and stamped. Wiped the purple ink off and allowed the stamp to dry. Then I put brown ink on the egg stamp (design side) and stamped over the purple. I cut the eggs out and attached to the embossed cardstock. The next step is to stamp and cut the bunny image from the stamp set.


Thank you for stopping by today! Looking for more gel-a-tins inspiration? Join the gel-a-tins Facebook page!

Supplies:

hello love

Happy Friday! I have a card today using the SWAK stamp set. These lips are really fun & I discovered using them with Faber-Castell gelatos really makes the stamped image look like actual lipstick.

For my card today, I used Zing embossing powder in rouge & you can see how awesome it looks in this close up shot:
I'll be sharing more projects soon with this stamp set because there are several different sets of lips to use!

Traffic Signs Arrow Tag


Hi everyone! It's so good to see you today!  :-)

I'm back today to show you a tag created using the Traffic Signs stamp set. Arrows are all the rage at the moment so I wanted to incorporate this trend to create a funky gift tag:


Fun right? Gotta love all that bright neon!


This came together pretty easily - I just stamped the same arrow repeatedly across my tag using various neon inks.


I added the sentiment in black in to take some of the heat out of that neon, but thanks to the alphabet not being solid it still allows all that glorious colour to play a major part!



Supplies used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Traffic Signs stamp set

Other:
Headline Alphabet stamp set (Papertrey Ink)
Stamper's Select White cardstock (Papertrey Ink)
Neon inks (Hero Arts), Versafine Onyx Black ink (Tsukineko)
Tag Sale #7 die (Papertrey Ink)
Black ribbon

I'll be back again soon to share another project, have a fabulous day and thanks for stopping by!!!
