Everything Eleanor

Everything Eleanor by Andrea G71


June Stamp Club Card

This is the second card we made at our stamp club workshop.  I found THIS CARD on Pinterest that I really liked and had to CASE it.  Just changed the colours and switched up some of the accessories.

I used Stampin' Up!'s new Pressed Clay and Mold.  Very fun to use.  I found that it takes about a day to dry.  After a significant amount of drying time, the flowers were firm enough to handle and not get deformed.  To make the Pool Party flower, I added a few drops of reinker into a plastic bag and squished it around with the clay.  Using plastic gloves might be a better way of doing this, but unfortunately I don't have any.  The yellow flowers were created by just sponging the molded flowers with Daffodil Delight ink.

Supplies:

Stamps:  Everything Eleanor, Loving Thoughts, French Foliage (retired)
Paper:  Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Pool Party Coordinations, Crumb Cake
Ink:  Crumb Cake,  Pool Party, Daffodil Delight
Accessories:  Little Leaves Sizzlet, Edge Distresser, Honeycomb Embossing Folder, Sanding Block, Simply Pressed Clay, Blossoms Simply Pressed Mold, Dimensionals, Glue Dots

Thanks for stopping by.


Wonderful Wildflower Meadow

Wildflower Meadow by Andrea G71



June Stamp Club Card

I am sorry that you cannot see some of the details on the card.  The camera seems to have a hard time taking a picture of so much white plus the photographer isn't so skilled to figure out what can be done to correct it.  :(  What you cannot see is that the Wildflower Meadow background stamp was stamped in VersaMark and them embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.  The matching embossing folder was used to raise the stamped image.   Next, colour the one flower with markers, stamp again and cut out. 

I am not sure to whom I'm supposed to give credit for this card idea since you can find a bunch of designs like this one on Splitcoaststampers.

Supplies:

Stamps:  Wildflower Meadow
Paper:  Wisteria Wonder, Whisper White
Ink:  Garden Green and Wisteria Wonder Markers, Versamark
Accessories:  Clear Embossing Powder, Wisteria Wonder Ribbon, Dimensionals, Wildflower Meadow Embossing Folder, Edge Distresser
