A Pear of Slimline Cards

Today's tutorial uses several sets of stamps from the Stampers Anonymous Tim Holtz Collection and then one from the Stampers Anonymous Classic Collection. The muted spring tones of Crushed Olive, Speckled Egg and Pumice Stone go so well with these classic images.

Here is the video tutorial for these cards.

 Enjoy the close ups of the cards below.

Thanks for looking!

Wildflowers on Woodgrain - Stampers Anonymous

This tutorial focuses on making some woodgrain paper with Distress Crackle Paste and the Woodgrain Stencil.from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous. The lovely Wildflower Silhouette clear stamps (or Mini Bouquet if you want Red Rubber stamps) make a beautiful focal point on this woodgrain background.

Here is my process tutorial if you would like to see how I made these cards.

This is a mini slimline card.

The woodgrain was made by tinting Distress Crackle Paste Opaque with a few drops of Gathered Twigs Distress Ink Reinker and then putting it through the woodgrain layering stencil. onto Mixed Media Heavystock.

Then I colored the Mixed Media Heavystock With Distress Spray Stain in Walnut Stain and Scorched Timber. I cut the woodgrain into 7/8" strips.

I inked the wildflowers with Mini Distress Inks and sprayed with water before stamping on Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Then I cut the flowers out with the coordinating dies for the red rubber stamp version of these wildflowers called Mini Bouquet CMS259. 

Here is a closer peek at the nail holes in the wood. I poked the holes with the Craft Pick from TIm Holtz and Tonic, them colored wtih Distress Markers (yest I still have them.

I tied the ends of the flowers into a bouquet with some bakers twine. 

The sentiment is from the Crazy Talk stamps.

This version is an A2 size and is the one I sent to Stampers Anonymous. 

The background woodgrain was made the same way but I used Lost Shadow Spray Stain to make a weathered barnwood look.

Again I poke "nail" holes with the Craft Pick and then colored them with a Rusty Hinge and Ground Espresso Distress Marker. 

I just love the look of the rusty nail holes.

The sentiment was from Crazy Talk again.

Thank you for reading through this. I hope it was helpful.

Have a creative day!

Tiny Toadstools Etcetera Tag

 

Today's project is a small Etcetera piece that really packs a punch. The Etcetera adds dimension to a project that just makes things pop. I used the Tiny Toadstools Mixed Media Stamp and Stencil set from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous to cover the Etcetera #8 Tag and Etcetera Mosaic Tiles. All the products are listed below 

 Here is the video process tutorial for today's tag.

 

Included in today's project is a short tutorial on how to stamp on twill ribbon with Distress Paints. That's right, two paint tutorials in a row!

Interactive Birthday Card

Hello Makers! I put the Simon Says Stamp coordinating dies to work this week by making this interactive spinner card.

Here is a video tutorial of my process for making this card. 

The Bold Sayings stamps can be used as is, or you can cut the words out and just use the words you want. 

I used the text stamps on both Professor stamp sets to make a 5x7 background .

The words for the spinner are from Tiny Text.

I layered several for the professor dies cuts and then after attaching the spinner I attached him to the guage with foam tape. 

The spinner was made by cutting the arrow from the Correspondence coordinating die set and using the Professor Suite dies to cut the goggles.

The background stamping was doen in Old Paper Distress Ink.

 If you wanted the background to be a complete circle with birthday options all the way around, you would need to make a 6x6 card base and stencil the green circle on a 5.5x5.5 piece of White Heavystock.

 I hope you enjoyed the process video in this card. It was fun to make!

Have a creative day,
