Seahorse by Ksenija

Hello Everyone and Welcome!

Today Ksenija is here, and I am happy to share with you a new project as a part of January inspiration from International DT.

Today I am featuring Seahorse red rubber stamp from Collector's Edition. How adorable is this Seahorse!

Tips on Making This Card:

• Trim the panel from white card stock down to 4 1/4 by 5 1/2" (10 by 14 cm)
• Stamp the seahorse in black archival ink off the center
• Stamp the seahorse down to mask paper and fussy cut out the mask

• Colour the impression with watercolour markers

• Mask off the seahorse coloured impression and the edges of the card panel
• Blend Distress inks onto the panel

• Keep the seahorse masked and remove the masks from the edges of the panel
• Stamp repeatedly oxygen bubbles from Under The Sea red rubber stamps set in FlitterGlu and apply Autumn Blaze Megaflakes

• Rub off the excess of the foil to reveal beautiful gilded impressions
• Remove the mask from the seahorse and stamp down DREAM from Sarah's Choice red rubber stamps set in black ink 
• Adhere the card panel to a black card base

Now over to you - Have you tried this seahorse stamp already? What type of projects did you make or would like to make with it? Cards? Tags? Altered objects?

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great day!

Hello, Solange Marques here. Today I'll share with you an altered canvas using IndigoBlu products:

First I covered the canvas using IndigoBlu GeeSso Good White and after I applied modelling paste on IndigoBlu Stencil -Roman Numerals.

I made a collage using IndigoBlu Emporium of Curiosities Mixed Media Paper Pad and I used stamps from the IndigoBlu Tasty Textures set and IndigoBlu Sarah's Choice set;

I also used Beeswax and IndigoBlu Copper Kettle Mega Flakes:

Finally, I sprayed diluted IndigoBlu English Cottage Artist's Acrylic Paint Hot Cocoa on some places;

I hope you enjoy it! 

Welcome to the year of 2016

Hi! It's Marie here. Are you prepared for a new year filled with possibility? Have you made any new years resolutions? I haven´t - I stopped years ago - never keep them.... One thing I try to do each new year is to find a word to live by. Sort of a guideline to strive agains. This year my word will be evolve! 

So today I want to share a couple of projects that I made that represent a skill I have evolved this past year. One thing I am proud of and think I have accomplished is my cardmaking skills. From making flat and pretty boring cards I now make 3 dimensional ones with a lot of details.

For this card I have used a patterned paper from the coming soon "After Morris" Mixed Media Paper collection. On it I have stamped and embossed the "Colour This Peony" (also coming soon). 

To create extra dimension I have applied a mix of modeling paste and IndigoBlu Fine Glitter on the edges. Some black stamping with the script stamp from the "Tasty Textures" stamp set add even more interest. Flowers, chipboard and other embellishments ties it all together.

I have used the same paper for the tag below. The card and tag works perfect together as a set.

I cut out a piece of the flower from the patterned paper and applied to the plane tag. As you can see I have painted and embossed on the side where the patterned paper does not cover. For this I used IndigoBlu Acrylics and one of the new background stamps from the Lights and Sound stamp set that will be released in January.

The "ART" word is stamped and embossed with a stamp from the Sarah's Choice A5 stamp set.

Thank you for stepping by today! I hope I inspired you to create!
