Fun Florals Tag with Creative Worship Stamps ~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing a mixed media tag using
Fun Florals by Creative Worship Stamps.
You can get this stamps for FREE with a
$75. order.  Very cool!!

The background is started using a mix of distress oxide inks and then 
background stamps are added.  I used  Mini Marks 1, and Texture Tiles 1.

The focal images, from the Fun Florals set, are stamped out on
white cardstock, colored and then trimmed out.  Place on front the of tag
 using a wet glue. 

I added the cut out leaves to the top of the tag along with twine.  The sentiments
are from the God is Bigger set. The alpha set is called Skinny Lower

Case Alpha. 

A touch of bling is added to the center of the small flowers.  I used
flat back pearls for this.

Bird House Gate by Blue Knight Stamps~

Hi!
Today I'm sharing a couple of cards using the NEW
stamp called Bird House Gate by Blue Knight
Stamps.  

The top card is created as if it was Winter and the bottom has
a fallish tone to it. 

The image is stamped on a background
created using Distress Oxide inks.  I just water down the 
inks and dab the paper in the ink mixture.  The barn,
trees and fence are colored with panpastels and
colored pencils. The snow is added with white acrylic
paint. The boy is from the Choose Wisely set
and the small bird is from Birds ll.

This card is stamped on Pattern Paper Day set #2 with
Hero Hues/Onyx pigment ink. I wanted a sharp and
dark image. The bird is from the Branches and
Leaves set. The sentiment is from
One Line Sentiments/Did you know...

Gods Got This card with Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps~

 

Hi all!
 I'm super excited to share with projects using
Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps for the month of August.
So thrilled to Guest Design for them!!

I created a background for this 4"x4" card using Distress Oxide ink along 
with the SNS-13-054 Typewriter Text Background stamp by
Sweet 'n Sassy.

The SNS-12-0368 Nature Silhouttes are the focal of the card.  I
heat embossed the flowers along with butterfly.  The greeting
is from the SNS-14-004 God is Bigger.  The sentiment set
is a must have.  The sentiments are so unique and really
spoke to me. 

I added some vintage buttons along with vintage trim to cluster
at the base of the flowers.  Love the look!
