Cards Stamped with Acrylic Paint!!!

Hi all, well it's time for another tutorial on the Scrapbooker's Paradise Blog........and this time we are playing with Acrylic Paints, I used the Ranger Acrylic Dabbers, this is such a fun way to expand your stamping! So check out this post for my tutorial!!! This is the card that I did..............

Products Used:

Cardstock: X-press It Blending, Coredinations Tim Holtz 12"x12"-Tumbled Glass and Shabby Shutters

Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink- Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Shabby Shutters and Crushed Olive, Ranger Archival Ink Black

Stamps: Kaiser Craft Chapter One and Occasions

Dies and Punches: Spellbinders Ribbon Banners and We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper- Scallop and Cloud

Misc.: Ranger Acrylic Dabbers- Pearl and Gold, Ranger Ink Blending Tool and Pink Paislee Daily Junque Twine

For the deets on how I did the stamping with the acrylic dabbers....click here. So all I did to finish this card is I used the Coredinations Shabby Shutters CST for the card and layered the Tumbled Glass CST over it. Then I used the Scallop corner punch on only 2 of the corners of the stamped piece. I added the twine and adhered it to the card. Now I die cut the banner and stamped the sentiment with the black archival ink and used the blending tool to apply the distress inks, this was pop dotted up in the center. That's all for this card! I hope you all have some fun playing with the acrylic paint dabbers!!!

Here's another card I did:

Flowers, Swirls & Glimmer

Hi all, so who's enjoying all this rain??? Well I will say this, if I have a choice I would take rain over snow any day!!! :) Plus it gives you the excuse to stay in and do something creative ;) So onto today's post......I really love the colours in the new Kaiser Craft Chapter One Line, so I decided to grab some of my glimmer mists and play.....I hope you all enjoy today's post!!!

Products Used

Cardstock:White, Black & Kaiser Craft Chapter One Patterned Papers- Reflect, Beginning and Motive

Ink: Ranger Black Archival Ink

Stamps: Purple Onion Birthday Banner

Dies: Spellbinders Rose Creations

Misc.: Want 2 Scrap Finesse Swirls Black, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists- Hula Hoop, Olive Vine, Dragonfly and Electric Blue and misc. brads

I had a ton of fun playing with the glimmer mists and you really have to check out all the gorgeous bling from Want 2 Scrap that we carry!!! Okay I guess I should tell you a little bit of how I put this together......

I stamped the banner stamp on my white cst with the black ink, leaving about a half an inch between each banner. Then I used my glimmer mists over top and I love how the colours mixed together and match the colours in the Chapter One line. Then I cut it apart and adhered the strips onto the black cst. Then I added the swirls and die cut the flowers from the Kaiser Craft Chapter One patterned papers. I shaped the petals on the flowers and added brads. Then I adhered them to the card. You really have to check out the bling and the Chapter One line from Kaiser Craft......they're amazing!!! Well that's all for this time.........until next time.......

Birthday's & Parties

Hi all......well our theme this month is Birthday's & Parties and I'm the lucky one to get this started!!! So I had purchased a couple of the Spellbinders dies and a matching Flourishes stamp set......can you guess which ones??? I really love that Spellbinders has teamed up with some of the stamp companies and now we have the matching dies to go with our stamps! Not that my pocketbook likes it :)........so onto today's post..............and yes I did a Birthday Card...........:)

Products Used

Cardstock: Light Turquoise, Dark Turquoise, Magenta, White & My Mind's Eye Lime Twist 6"x6" Paper Pad- Happy Go Lucky

Stamps: Flourishes-Birthday Pennants

Inks: Momento- Lilac Posies, Angel Pink & Tim Holtz Distress Ink- Antique Linen

Dies: Spellbinders- Nested Pennants & Nested Lacey Pennants

Misc.: White Tule, Ranger Perfect Pearls Mist- Forever Violet, My Mind's Eye Lime Twist- Smile Twine & EK Success Punch- Diamond Lace

I really had to play with these papers again, I just love the bright colours and the patterns in these papers......so to start off, I edged the butterfly paper with the diamond lace punch and added some of the tule, which I had sprayed with the Forever Violet Mist. This was pop dotted over the floral paper. Then I added a small stripe of dark turquoise and layered it with the magenta stripes. I die cut the pennants and stamped them with the Momento inks and the Flourishes set. For an added touch I used the twine and stitched across the top of all the pennants and tied a bow on either side. Well, I guess that's pretty much it for this card. So until next time............and have a great week!!!
