Box Frame Sampler - Thursday Digi-Stamp Blog Project for LC Designs

Good Morning Everyone! 

It's Sarah here with a new LC Designs Project. I decided to raid my stamps and use lots of the 'dinkie' sized stamps for this 9 square sampler. 

Here is a list of materials and products I used for this project: 

8 x 8 Wooden Box Frame
Little Claire Stamp - At Home Stamp Set
Little Claire Stamp - Tea Party Stamp Set
Little Claire Digi-Stamp -  Trailing Birdhouse 2
Little Claire Stamps - Dinkie Pincushion Birdy 
Little Claire Stamp - Dinkie Single Flowers Hedgehog Stamp
Little Claire Stamp - Dinkie Butterfly Cat Stamp
Little Claire Stamp - Butterfly Flourish Stamp Set
Little Claire Stamp - Dinkie Boxed Dandelion 
Little Claire Stamp - Butterfly Tree Stamp Set

Smooth white Card Stock - to stamp and print on 
2 Inch Square Die

White leaves embossed paper
  Distress Inks, Watercolour Brush
Various coloured Pearls
Foam pads and Glue

I stamped 9 different images I thought would look nice in a sampler and cut them out using a 2" square die. If the stamped image was larger than the die I cut around the over hang of the stamped part and layed this over the die so it would not cut (as above). I also cut on my guillotine 9 x 2 1/2" squares for boarders.

I trimmed my 12 x 12 paper to 8 x 8 and used 3 Distress Inks to go over the sheet blending in a random pattern to create a background.
 

I used these colours to ink the 2 1/2" square boarders and also to paint the stamped images with a watercolour brush to create a soft and matching tonal range for each small sampler.

To finish I added different coloured pearls to each piece and then layered these onto the background with foam pads using a thin strip of card for guidance and measuring.

 These sampler style art pieces are so pretty. Any colours could be used to match where you wish to hang the frame :)

 Thanks for stopping by to take a look, hope you enjoyed the Box Frame Sampler!

LC Designs - Design Team Challenge # 67 - Anything Goes!

Good Morning Everyone!
 

For the LC Design's Design Team Challenge # 67 - Anything Goes I have used the a sheet from the Irresistable Images - Silhouette Everyday Images. I also used a green paper from the Splodge paper pack, these packs are so stunning and I thought this would work perfectly for an artist themed card.
 

I used Distress Ink to create my own blue backing paper and used an oval punch to create the artist palette. I creates the brush using the tip of a flower petal and added some Card Candi in the colours of the paint from the palette to finish.

 
The prize for this challenge is this bundle ...

 Defo worth entering! Details can be found here.

Birthday Beer Card using Robert Addams Die

Welcome! 

Today I bring you a male themed card using the Beer glass and Bottle Die from Robert Addams. I have also used the tartan paper from one of the LC Designs paper packs.
  

I used alcohol inks on metallic card to create the shiney bottles and used glossy accents over the beer glass to create a more life-like design.
