Love, Joy & Peace by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps

Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing a couple cards using the Love, Joy & Peace
 stamps by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.  This stamps comes with
two different images.  One is some cute animals on a ledge and
the other is a Rose with happy Penguins playing.  They aren't
necessarily created to use together. 


The cards are completely different in style  and products used to
create with.
Card#1


The images were stamped out on watercolor paper using
Archival ink.  The Rose and Penguins are colored with
watered down Distress Oxide Inks.  The card is a block style.
The boxes are sized to fit in a regular size card.  Twine was
added and the card was splattered with black acrylic paint.

Card#2


The background sky is created with Distress Oxide inks. Water is splattered
on to give the cool water/distressed look.  The brick wall is added with a
 stencil and Archival ink was used. The row of animals is stamped on the 
card front, using a platform stamping tool, so the animals can be lined
up on the top of the brick wall.  They are colored with Distress Oxide
inks.  The sentiment is embossed with white embossing 
powder.  Twine is added to complete the card. 
Both cards were adhered using adhesives by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

all kinds and they have it!!!

Island Tree by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps ~

 Hi, Guys!
Today I'm creating with Island Tree by Blue Knight Rubber
 Stamps.  This is such a beautiful stamp.
 A great stamp for all occasion card making.


I created two different looks, night/dusk and day breaking.
  
Card #1

The background was created using a mix of Infusions/pigments to
achieve that almost night effect.  The image was stamped on the 
background and then colored with Distress Oxide inks.  I added
the Cowboy Minis on the hill.  A sticker was used for
the sentiment.

Card #2


I used a stencil for the light rays shining behind the hills. The color
was added with Distress Oxide inks. Very simple card to make.
The image was stamped using a stamping platform so I was able 
to re-stamp the image, to darken the image lines.
Both cards were adhered with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
