Kiss The Card and a Twist

Hi there! Another fun challenge for Our Creative Corner. This week, your project must show a kiss technique and the letters X and O. Isn't that a fun challenge? I love that technique and it also has some twists. If you go to the OCC blog, you are going to find a tutorial about it, and then you can choose which twist you want to apply to the technique. Don't forget to check the wonderful creations that the DT has prepared to inspire you. Hope to see you in the gallery!

To create my card, first I stamped the background with black with the XOXO stamp with the help of the Stamp-a-ma-jig (101049) on Raspberry Ripple cardstock (126842). Then I distressed the edges. For the black ribbon on the side, I just cut a piece of DSP, pleated it, and added two mini brads (122941) at the ends.

To make the flower, I used the Build a Blossom stamp set (W 121923, C 121994) and the Blossom Petals Builder punch (121808). I applied the kissing technique on the petals. First I inked the XOXO stamp with Raspberry Ripple and the petal stamp from the Build a Blossom stamp set with Pink Pirouette. I kissed both stamps and after that I punch them out. I distressed the petals' edges with Raspberry Ripple, and added a line of pearls in the center of each petal. I don't know if you can see the pearls very well in the pictures, but they really give a nice look to each petal.

For the leaves I inked the leaf stamp from Build a Blossom with Gumball Green and I dragged the dots stamp from For All You Do (115360) against the leaf stamp, which will give those strips to the leaf as you can see in the picture. Then I stamped it on Olive Green cardstock (100702). When the card was done I used the black marker to spritz all over the card.

Hope you like it! Have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!

FM # 75

We have a fun challenge this week at The Friday Mashup about going back to school with sewing. Of course that you have the chance to mash it up or create a project with only one feature. Holly is our talented host this week. Check out the FM blog to see what the DT has created to keep your inspiration flowing.

For this card I used First Day stamp set (unfortunately discontinued) and Storytime DSP (126907). It has several layers and I mashed it up. I am very pleased on how it came out. Hope you like it.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend!

 So here is the "Mashup" Challenge:

Our Creative Corner Resisting Challenge & Twist

What a super fun challenge our talented Lisa is hosting this week at Our Creative Corner. Every single week that I have to create a project for OCC I am so excited about the requirements of the challenge. These challenges are really distinctive. The OCC design team always amazes me with originality, art and the use of different techniques. I love how each of us gives a different interpretation of the challenge. They are true artists, you should go to the OCC  blog and check out all the different creations. I hope you get inspired and participate in our weekly challenges.

Here are the four requirements for this week:
1-Resist Stamping
2-Describe the technique you used somewhere on your post. 
3- Include Wings
4- It can be a card or a project. 

For this card I used Versamark Resist technique, actually my favorite one. To create the background, I clear embossed the hummingbird on a piece of Newsprint Designer Paper. Then I used broken China to give color to the designer paper. The design in the center of the card was embossed with Tangerine Tango embossing powder. The wings of the heart and the banner have been stamped with Black Archival ink, and the heart with red ink. I poured Crystal Effect on the heart to give it shine. 

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great weekend! 
Hope to see you in the gallery.
