  I've got three projects to share with you today. First up, I used the Doodled Triangles Stamp Set with Crisp Dye inks from Altenew in Pale Plum, Cloudy Sky, Nimbus, and Dark Night to stamp the images over my panel.

  
  

I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of white cardstock with the Dark Night ink.

I cut the sentiment down to the size and rubbed the edges into the Pale Plum ink.

I adhered it to the panel with some foam tape and then adhered the panel to a dark blue card base. And then added some clear sequins to finish this one off.

For the second card, I started by stamping the small floral image from the Fresh Bloom Stamp set with Embossing Ink many times to cover a white panel that was treated with an anti-static tool. Then heat set with white embossing powder.

I used the Small Blending Brushes with Pink Pearl, Citrus Burst, Sea Glass, and Sea Breeze crisp dye inks and blended the colors over the panel.

I adhered that to a black piece of cardstock that was slightly larger. I stamped the larger flower and leaves onto some velum that was treated with an anti-static tool with Obsidian Pigment Ink and heat set that with clear powder. I love this trick. You do not end up with black speckles where you do not want them using  black ink with clear powder.

I then used the coordinating Fresh Bloom Dies to cut them out. I ran a white card panel through the Crystal Wall 3D Embossing Folder and adhered that to a white card base then adhered the stamped and blended panel onto that.

I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of white cardstock and adhered it to the card, I used some velum adhesive to adhere the leaves behind the sentiment and the flower on the top.

My last project started as an experiment.  I adhered some 1/4" washi tape every 1/2" onto a white card panel. Using my finger I applied white pigment ink and then mixed in some of the Caribbean Sky and Sapphire Mixed Media Inks. 

Then pulled the tape off and loved the striped background that it created.

I stamped the flower and leaves from the Fresh Bloom set with Permanent Black Ink onto a piece of white cardstock. Then used the layered stamps to color in the flowers and leaves. I used Polar Bear, Icy Water, Winter Lake, Arctic Mountain, Firefly, Green Field, Shadow Creek, Citrus Burst, Maple Yellow, and Honey Drizzle inks.

I then used the coordinating Dies to cut them out with my die cutting machine. I adhered the sentiment with some foam tape.

I finally used one of the Fine Liner Pens to add some dots or speckles to the card.

 Thank you so much for visiting. Hope you have enjoyed the hop. Your last stop is Natasha Davies.
