Thank You Card set

Vintage Cream A2 cardstock, one of Papertrey Ink's Woodblock Print stencils inked with Antique Linen Distress Ink. Thank you sentiment from Big & Bold Wishes stamped with Ground Espresso Distress Ink and the pen and ink bottle from Crafty Secrets' French Mail stamped with Gathered Twigs. 12 cards done in 30 minutes... that's my new record : D.

There's a lot going on here. I was waiting for the Stickles to dry on the shaker card and I did more sampling for a set of 12 cards (also finished today lol).

 the front of the shaker card (featuring Lawn Fawn's Loads of Fun stamp set).
the inside is stamped and stickled and the laundry basket turned into a cupcake with candles from Papertrey Ink's Wishes Come True stamp set.

The set of 12 cards with the background stenciled with one of Papertrey Ink's Woodblock Prints stencils.

Head over to Julia's Stamping Ground for more crafty peeks : D.

Loads of Fun Birthday Card

Loving the Loads of Fun set from Lawn Fawn. The image is stamped with one of the Alcohol Ink techniques from Creative Chemistry 103. I used a 1 3/4 inch circle die to make the washer window. The cardstock is Papertrey Ink's Tropical Teal. 

On the inside I used the die cut circle to stamp a laundry basket "cupcake". I used an exacto knife to make layers in the laundry, and then put in candles from Papertrey Ink's Wishes Come True set (they are longer than the basket, but easy peasy to cut to size). Colored with Twisted Citron and Peeled Paint Distress Markers. The bubble highlights are made with a Picket Fence Distress Marker and at first they are totally invisible, but after a few seconds the color really pops.

Red Stickles accent the candle flames, and Diamond Stickles highlight spaces between bubbles.

 I only stamped the bubbles where they were likely to be seen. On the left is the back of the card front. I used a scrap piece of watercolor paper (painted a light blue) as the back of the shaker.
