Paint Pot

Hello. It's Liz here today with something a little bit different! I've had this paint pot for at least five years so thought it was about time I did something with it! The pot is clear plastic and made for decorating but I guess you could use any old paint pot or tin. I simply covered the pot with patterned paper. Then I stamped two of the Moderne Flowers, coloured and carefully trimmed around. They were then fixed to the pot and lid using foam pads.

I then stamped out 'brushes' using the Alphabet and Numbers stamp set and cut them up in random shapes. They were also fixed to the pot using foam pads. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out!

Marleen DT - Flower Hello

Hello everyone

Its once again my turn to share a bit of inspiration using the stamps from
Colourific
For today I have used the stamp sets called
A6 - Moderne Flowers
A6 - Alphabet & Numbers
Find them in the STORE along with all the other amazing stamps.

 

I used a strip of watercolour card I had lying. I used a couple of different Distress inks and made a basic mop up of the colours. Once dry I stamped my flower repeatedly and also a spare oneon white card stock.

I covered the white flower with a couple of coats of clear embossing powder and stamped the the wee center and added on top.

The strip now stamped, I matted and layered on black card stock and stuck strait onto my card blank.I made my greeting by stamping the individual alphabet stamps to write the word "hello" onto a strip of white card stock. Last I finished with a bit of glotter glue here and there.
And that is it from me for today.

Thank you for popping by and for any comments left behind.

 Happy Crafting

Hello everyone!  It's Karen with you today, sharing two cards using the lovely Spread Your Wings and Fly set, along with the Alphabet & Numbers:

 Now, you're going to have to forgive my photography... no matter how I edited my photo, the butterfly came out with a distinct red tone!  It's much more of a wine colour like the photo below.  I coloured the butterflies with Copic markers - so many possibilities and different ways they could be coloured!  I fussy cut around them, and then scored down either side of the body, so that the wings bend upwards.  For both cards, I used my sewing machine to zigzag the black patterned paper onto the base.  The teal circle on the "Fly" card is adhered with pop dots for a little dimension.

 The Alphabets & Numbers set is such a great font!  Really easy to fussy cut/paper piece like I've done here.

I was going to use the sentiments that come with the Spread Your Wings and Fly set on the front of the card... but they were busy enough already, so I mounted them on some teal paper, stamped a few butterflies in black ink, and added them to the inside of the cards.

A lot of butterfly papers are light & pastel-ish, so I love the dark, rich colours of these papers for a change.

You can find all of the Colourific stamps on the website here, or just click on the links above.

Happy stamping!
