Path to the Barn by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!

I have a couple of cards to share with you using the Path to the Barn stamp
by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.  This is a fun one, so easy to add
small stamps on the "path".
Card#1~

On this card the sunset was created with PanPastels and then the barn

and other elements are colored in with PanPastels also.  The sentiment

 was added and adhered to the card front.

Card#2~

This card is showing the adding of small stamps to

the path.  This was colored in with PanPastels and re stamped

to insure dark, crisp lines.

The clouds were added using the cloud stencil that works great with
PanPastels.  The smaller stamps are added using a Misti or
stamping platform.  Makes it easy to repeat stamping to get a rich
black color.
Products used:
Blue Knight Rubber Stamps: Path to the Barn, Cowboy Minis,
Walk by Faith, Family is Everything and Cloud Stencil.
Ink: PanPastels, Archival ink, VersaFine Clair/Nocturne
Adhesive: Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Silhouette Corner Foliage by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!

 I have a couple cards to share using the Silhouette Corner Foliage 

stamp by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.  Such a cool stamp.

Even though the foliage is in one corner, the stamp can be moved

around to a different angle to create a different look.

Card#1 ~

I created the sunset first using PanPastels and then stamped
 over the background of the card.

Using a Misti or stamping platform makes it easy to repeat stamping
of the image to insure a crisp and rich image.

Card#2

The background on this card was created using Distress Oxide ink in blue tones.
The stencil reminds me of an arbor ornament for Ivy's to grow on
.  The stamp was turned up side down to get the top leaves stamped.
I love a pretty Ivy stamp. So many uses~

Alphabet Jumble Medium Stencil by Darkroom Door~

Hi guys!
 I have three projects to share using the Alphabet Jumble
stencil by Darkroom Door.  This is a really fun
stencil to create with!

These cards represent positive on the L and negative on the R.
The positive is when the stencil is laid on the paper and then sprayed
with color.  The negative is when the stencil is turned over (with ink spray still
on stencil) and laid on paper. The L card, the letters are colored in and the R card,
they are white.  The leaves were stamped and colored with Distress
Oxide inks.

Several different Distress inks were used to add color to the
stencil.  The typewriter is colored in with Distress Oxide ink.
Love the stars added and the labels.

Silhouette Stag by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!
I have a couple cards to share using the Silhouette Stag stamp
by Blue Knight Rubber stamps.  This stamp holds a special place here
on the ranch~we love our deer!!!

Card#1~

The background was created using PanPastels.  A sunset was
the goal!!

The process I used was lightly stamping the image of the Stag deer and then created
the sunset with PanPastels.  

Then I stamped, the Stag image, several times using the VersaFine Clair/ Nocturne ink
for a rich and solid covering.  The Misti or a stamping platform is
recommended for silhouette stamps.

Card#2~

The background for this card is created using a stencil and PanPastels.

An easy process resulting in such a stunning look.

Blue Knight Rubber Stamps: Silhouette Stag, Regal Buck
Ink: VersaFine Clair/Nocturne, PanPastels
