Playful | Penny Black

HEY FRIENDS! Just a quick post today. I’m getting ready for vacation, although the destination is suddenly up in the air. We’re supposed to be going to the Grand Canyon next week, but if there’s a government shutdown, all the national parks will close so we’re scrambling to come up with an alternate vacation just in case. So I’m spending LOTS of time online doing research to see what we can book quickly. But for now, I wanted to take a few minutes to show you a recent project featuring the Playful stamp set by Penny Black. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

Anita Jeram Boo Time by Colorado Craft Company

HEY FRIENDS! I’m a little late posting today – a new washer and dryer is being delivered here today which is exciting news for us. Trying to find an in-stock washer and dryer in the midst of ongoing supply chain issues that would fit in a cramp space was beginning to feel like an exercise in futility. But on Thursday, I managed to track down the last set in the metropolitan area of the model we wanted and it’s being delivered today. So we’ve had to double check all the measurements — even fractions of an inch makes a difference between fitting and not fitting — and make sure everything is ready for delivery.

BUT FIRST, here’s some housekeeping of a different sort!

FREE SHIPPING DAYS: October 1st and 2nd, ending at midnight, mountain time. Free domestic shipping and $6.95 off international shipping. No promo code required. If you’re thinking about ordering, now’s the time to do it!

GIVEAWAY 1: Colorado Craft Company is giving away a HUGE complete bundle to ONE lucky winner. To enter, you have to use my affiliate links to buy their products. The winner will receive an email from Colorado Craft Company and the name will also be announced on their blog.

GIVEAWAY 2: One lucky person who comments on Wednesday’s blog post will win one set from this release from Colorado Craft Company.  Make sure you comment by October 1st at Midnight MST. The more you comment, the better chance you have to win!

Finally!

Here’s today’s card featuring the new Anita Jeram Boo Time stamp set by Colorado Craft Company. Coordinating dies are also available, but I didn’t use them here. Compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

BOO TIME
SIZE
: A2
Featured Products:

For the background, I cut a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (my preferred paper for ink blending) to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and masked off 1″ on each side using strips cut from Masking Magic. Then I masked along the bottom of the exposed area to create a 1″ gap where I ink blended Distress Ink in Black Soot. Next, I removed the bottom mask and realigned it to cover the Black Soot and ink blended the remainder of the center with Distress Ink in Wild Honey, Squeezed Lemonade and Wilted Violet. I created the clouds using the Cloud Stencil from My Favorite Things blended with Black Soot.

Finally, I removed the mask covering the bottom Black Soot blending and stamped the images using Hero Arts Intense Black ink. Then I removed all the masks and started coloring. Since I used Distress Ink (as opposed to Distress Oxide) I can color with my Copics directly over the dye ink. Marker list provided below.

I stamped the “Boo Time” sentiment on a piece of white cardstock using Versafine ink. I cut out the circle using one of the dies in the Hero Arts Infinity Circle Dies set.

When I was assembling the card, I decided to trim 1/8″ off of each side of the panel. From there, I just assembled the layers as shown.

Art from the Heart by Taylored Expressions

HEY FRIENDS! I’m back today with another project featuring the Art from the Heart stamp by Taylored Expressions. This background stamp coordinates perfectly with the Simple Strips – Craft sentiment stamp so I can create easy and colorful cards for my crafty friends. As always, I’ve linked the supplies below with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

Today’s project features:

Step by Step for Art from the Heart

Just a note — I recently added the Ultra Fine Metal Tip to my bottle of Art Glitter Glue and find it so much easier to apply precise amounts of glue to adhere embellishments.

Here’s another look at the finished card.
