GOLDEN SILENT NIGHT




Today I am sharing with you a card using Rainbow Tape to highlight strong lines for the background. The ColorBurst layer was cut on the diagonal and trimmed with Gold 1/8" Rainbow Tape. I shadowed the Nativity Lantern Die using gold mirror card stock. Heavenly Peace was stamped in champagne metallic ink.




Thanks for looking!

I have been playing with the Chameleon Markers. IO has teamed up with Chameleon on Friday's for the month of April. Check out the IO blog tomorrow, (Friday) to see some fun projects and the chance to win a set just by leaving comments on both design teams! 


For the Watercolor Butterfly image I have used the Chameleon Markers, BV4, PR4 and BL3. This layer was popped up using craft foam onto another layer I made with ColorBurst. Again, this layer was also raised using the foam.


For the inside of the card, Hello is from one of the recent clear set releases.  There is also a Hello Die that matches this set. The colorful border was made from a strip from the butterfly.

Thanks for looking, hope to see you tomorrow!

I had so much fun playing with Ken Oliver's Color Burst that I made two cards for the hop!
I love the explosion of color you get when water is added.
The Cross Set is from the NEW release of dies from Impression Obsession.
Stick It is a favorite of mine when cutting dies. I love how it never leaves any webbing and really sticks...no glueing needed!
For the background I went a little "poof" happy with colors! I used Indigo, Violet, Pthalo Green, and Ultramarine Color Burst. I stamped Faith and Be Still with a white ink which gives a ghosting effect.




 I heat embossed the Daisy Tile in Reverse stamped image from Impression Obsession.  Lemon Yellow and Orange Color Burst  from the Brights Assortment was used here. I then spritzed with water and the magic happened...a burst of color! Choose Happy is the perfect saying for this bright cheerful card.


HERE IS YOUR HOP LIST FOR TODAY 


Enjoy The Hop and Good Luck!

I have three cards to share using the same die but different techniques. 
I think the Poinsettia has become one of my many favorites!


The Poinsettia comes in two sizes, large and small. 
I love the deep veins on the leaves. The Berry Branch was die cut in a matt bronze hw paper.
The Peace die cut was inlaid onto the embossed vellum and Neenah.


For this Poinsettia I have combined both sizes, large and small and die cut them onto watercolor paper. For this technique I've used Ken Olivers Color Burst in Crimson for the leaves. It reminds me of the Jingle Bell Poinsettia. The greenery is a mix of the Berry Branch and a new Pine Sprig Set.


Card inside
Merry Christmas was die cut in gold metallic.



The leaves on the Poinsettia were colored with Zig water color brushes.  Distress Inks were used on the Berry Branch and Foliage. I love the graceful lines on the Ornament Flourish dies. The set comes with three beautiful ornaments and two gorgeous flourishes. 

Thanks for looking and enjoy the hop!
