Silhouette Cats by Blue Knight Stamps~

Hi there!!
Today I'm sharing 3 cards using the NEW 
Silhouette Cats by Blue Knight Stamps!
These are super cute!!!! They have Silhouette Dogs too!!!


The card on the left is using Fay's Bridge and Silhouette Sportsmen.  The scene is
colored with Panpastels.  The cats are added in using a stamping platform so
I could the right placement.  The sentiment is from One Line sentiments/
lucky you
.  The card front is then speckled with white acrylic paint.
The card on the right is using several stamps to create a scene (a truck
full of cats).
The background is a mix of Distress Oxide inks.  The tree
is from the Day at Lake set. The truck is from the Rear View Truck Stamp &
Die set.  Also added is Birds ll and Sun/Moon stencil.  The cats are stamped in
the back of the truck and one is roaming.  You will need to mask off the
truck bed to get the cats peeking out. 


This card is using an retired stamp call Bank Barn with 
the Silhouette Cats.  The color is panpastels and the
sentiment is One Line Sentiments/friends rock. 
All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blossoming Branches by Blue Knight Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing a couple of cards from the 
NEW release by Blue Knight Stamps.  The stamp I'm
creating with is called Blossoming Branches!!! So pretty!! 


The card on the left is created using Panpastels for the 
background.  I took 4 coordinating colors and layered them across the
front of the card. I then stamped the Blossoming Branches over the
background. To get the flowers white, I erased the color with a 
Hi-Polymer Eraser (white).  Also added are Birds ll, Dictionary Page/BG
and Birds Song (sentiment).
The card on the right is using a mix of Distress Oxide inks to
create the card background.  I used Dictionary Page and Tell Me
the Story of Jesus/BG
stamps for an added mixed media element.
Also added are Branches & Leaves (bird) and Birds Song (sentiment).
The silhouette branches, at the bottom of the card, are from the
Silhouette Birds & Branches set.
All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L.

Flowers in Grass by Blue Knight Stamps~

Hi there!!!
I have another month with Blue Knight Stamps
sharing the NEW release of red rubber stamps.
Today I'm sharing Flowers in Grass.  Such a pretty
image!!!
 


I went in two different directions ~ the first being an underwater scene
and the second a flower garden.  


Adding the turtle from the Sea Life Stamp & Die set gave it
the underwater feel that I was going for.  The background is a 
mix of Distress Oxide inks along with the Sun/Moon Stencil
for the water bubbles. The sentiment is One Line
Sentiment/Did you know...


On this one I stamped over the background using Versafine/
Black Onyx and then colored in the flowers with
Distress Oxide inks.  The sentiment is stamped in the
right top corner.  The last thing is to speckle the card
with acrylic white paint.
All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Scrappy Turtle Tags~

Hi  there!
Today I'm sharing some Scrappy Turtle Tags created
with scraps of heavy mixed media cardstock off
of a 12x12 sheet of paper.  Couldn't let it go to
the trash:):) 


The tags are created together, so the elements are from the 
same stamp set. I used Distress Oxide inks for a colorful mix
for the background.  Stencils by PaperArtsy are used
on the background. 


The stamps are by Blue Knight Stamps (Sea Life Set), Carmen
 Veranda (border), Darkroom Door (Fish Net BG) and 
Studio Light (sentiments).  


The Sea Life elements are adhered with
dimensional adhesive by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
These were fun to create, even stapled the border to the 
bottom of the tag.  Buttons are by Buttons Galore & More.
The company links are in the side bar.
Thanks for stopping by!!
