RAINBOW BACKGROUND

Good Day!  Today's card features the Rainbow Background Technique, where you use Stampin' Up! markers half way down a piece of watercolor paper and then hold the paper up and spritz with plain water.  As the color runs down the paper you have a rainbow affect.
The Stamp Sets used are retired and the rain drops are rhinestones.

Samples of the Chalkboard Technique

 Good Day,
Today I have posted examples of the Chalkboard Technique that I made in a class.  The above card is using the Stamp Set, By the Tide and the piece below is using Oh Hello (in case you didn't recognize it).  lol

This is a very different look from anything I have done before.  I think I like it best on Black Card Stock as it reminds me most of the old chalk boards we had in elementary school.

Retired Stuff!

 Good Day,
One of my Hostess Club ladies, Jeanne Defibaugh is always telling her husband she needs more STUFF!  Always makes me laugh and happy too .  LOL

Today this card is about retired stuff.  I made this at my sister, Denise Foor's house,  It is a little whale swimming along to make some soul feel better.  The Bashful Blue used here is still one color I like even if it is retired.

The Karen Burniston Card Base Pop'n Cuts is used and folded to make this card half the size of the regular size card.   In the NEW Stampin' Up! Catalog Karen has a new Label Pop'n Cuts which I am going to order and be using in the new future.

onths.    I love that she used a Rhinestone on each lite fuse.  She knew we would be going to a restaurant so the saysings is perfect (also from this set).

OH HELLO!!!

Good Day, Love summer colors.  This card is using the Tangerine Tango, So Saffron and Tempting Turquoise plus one of our paper doillies.  The ribbon is a retired line.
The card itself is using Karen Burniston's Card Base Pop'n Cuts Dies.

I cased the inside idea for this card from my sister, Denise Foor.  I used the Window Sheets and stamped with White Stazon with the Pleasant Poppies Background Stamp from Stampin' Up!  Then colored the flowers in using Sharpies.  The Dress Form Pop'n Cuts by Karen Burniston was used but cut off on the top and bottom to make the table which a Doiley was then placed over it.  The mirrow was made using the Designer Frames on page 190 and cut out by hand placing Brushed Silver Card Stock inside to make a mirror.  The sentiment has been left off until I know exactly how I want to use this cheery card.

Good Day,
A couple of summer pages for you to enjoy today.  I used some elements from Stampin' Up! Simply Scrappin' Kits.  I like the gray mixed in with the lighter colors.  Let me know if you do too.
