Brick Wall Stencil by Darkroom Door~

Hi guys~

I have three projects to share using the

Large Brick Wall stencil by Darkroom Door.  This is a

beauty too!!! So many creative ways to use it~

The background for these journal pages were created using Distress Stain
Spray by Ranger.  So easy and it really gives a cool look.  I also  used many

 Darkroom Door stamp sets to complete the page. I will link below~

My inspiration for this card was a graffiti wall.  I used stamps

 and stencils on this card.  The background is stenciled with

Distress Ink and Distress Oxides by Ranger.

For this background only a small portion of the Brick Wall stencil
was used.  I love the look!!

More Gather Together cards with Joy Clair~

Hi guys!
It is my turn over on the Joy Clair Blog.  I am continuing with
the Gather Together set.  Stencils, background stamps and words
are creating really fun backgrounds for the cards I have to share.

Both of the cards have such an unique look and I love that!!

The Brick Wall background stamp went perfect with sentiment
for this card.  The background is created with Distress Oxides/brown
tones. 

This card is created with a stencil and then a sentiment stamped
over the background.  The leaves and the church were stamped
and then trimmed out.  Dimensional adhesive is added for dimension.

Hand Knitted Stamps by Darkroom Door

Hi guys!
I have been creating with this fun set.  If you are a knitter this is for you.

It is called Hand Knitted by Darkroom Door.

My first project is a card that I used several of the knitting
images on.

I started by stamping the yarn ball image in different colors of

Archival  inks. With that being said you could create this card
using your favorite colors.  The knitting needles were stamped in Archival Jet
Black ink to create a border for the card front.  The sentiments were stamped
out on white cardstock and then punched out with a circle punch.  Yes, I used
a punch in the world of electronic cutters.  They still work!!!! 
Mat the circles with coordinating cardstock.  Add to the card front and then
double mat with coordinating cardstock. Add to a folded card.  Complete the card with
twine and black ink splats

The next project is a couple of tags created from the images in the
Hand Knitted Set.  The background for the tag is created using
Distress Oxide inks and water.  The knitting needle stamp is stamped
Archival Jet Black on the tag.  The sentiment is stamped on white cardstock
and then double matted and attached to the tag front.  Super cute to add to a
 hand knitted item!

This knitting basket tag was created with Archival Jet Black ink, stamped
out on white cardstock.  The image was trimmed out and colored
with Distress Markers by Ranger.  The hand knitted by: was stamped
out on white cardstock and added to the basket.
