Another total Eclipse

Hello!

Since I had my alphabet dies out I decided to create another card using the eclipse technique. I also needed a 40th Birthday card so I decided to get out my numeral dies and use them as well.

Card #1

Created using HLS 'Born to be Wild' stamp set and Papertrey Ink's 'By the Numbers' dies.

I used a little gold mica powder mixed with water to create my splats.

Card #2

This is a second birthday card for my Mum. I wasn't completely happy with the original one so I decided to create another. I heat embossed the flower with white powder, then coloured it in with a pink polychromo pencil and gamsol. I added a bit of orange into the mix as well.

I would like to enter my cards over at the following challenges -
Card #1 - Penny Black and More (Animals, Birds, and Butterflies), Crafty Animals (Anything Goes), Seize the Birthday (All Creatures Great and Small), A Place to Start (Masculine)
Card #2 - Stamping Sensations (Feminine), Creations in Pink (Anything Goes in Mainly Pink), Crafty Calendar (Use Die Cuts/Punches), Happy Craft Challenge (Anything Goes)

HLS March CAS Challenge

Good morning, over at Happy Little Stampers we have our newest CAS challenge. This is the theme for this month -

There are so many special day's to choose from - what will you decide on?

I went with two cards - one for an engagement and one for a birthday. Both my cards are black and white with a pop of red.

Card #1

This is a Paper Artsy set that I have had in my stash for a few months now but have only just stamped it up. I used the sentiment from the HLS Born to Wild set.

Card #2

I used grey ink for the large heart then stamped my sentiment over it. I little glitter heart that I had laying around finished it off. I used the HLS Simply Said set for this card.

I hope to see you over at HLS with your CAS creations :)

Two Hearts

Hi there everyone. I have made two cards tonight utilising the same die but creating completely different cards. Thanks to the new challenge that Darnell has started called the 'Twofer Card Challenge', I was able to think outside the box. Congratulations to Darnell and her Design Team :)

You will have to excuse my photography as it is 9pm but I couldn't wait to take my pics.

For my first card, I used the die to create an embossed image. I stamped my lion and sentiment using my MISTI.

For the second card, I used the die and die cut as intended. The die comes out in two parts - the stitched edge and the full heart. I die cut twice using glitter paper and white cardstock. I wanted to stamp my sentiment within the heart then pop it up for dimension.

These cards were simple to create and took no time at all!

Born to be Wild

Hi! I'm one excited gal because today the new release stamps for Happy Little Stampers arrived.

I have made a quick card before dinner but will get back to the craft room straight after :)

Lot's of embossing for this card! I couldn't wait to ink up the lion. I always knew that I wanted him to shine in Gold. I created my black panel by stamping a chevron several times and embossing in gold.

Here is a close up of the embossing -
