Curtain Call CC Act 26

Hey everyone,

Ok, having a few issues with loading pictures on my blog, so I will update soon with Stacey's fabulous inspiration photo.   In the mean time, if you would like to play along go HERE.

My inspiration for this weeks card is my little mans' 6th birthday.  These were such great colours for a boy card.  Loved them!

Inspiration for the inside of the card came from the fabulous and very talented  Teneale Williams.  Your can check out her designs HERE and HERE

Stamps:  Star prints (PTI), Big & bold wishes (PTI), Birthday basics, Fancy flourishes (PTI)

Card:  Goind gray, basic gray, whisper white and summer sun

Ink:  Summer sun, going gray and basic gray

Accessories:  CM circle template, lrge and sml star punch, silver brads, 1/4" cirle punch

Raspberry Suite CC 19

Ok, I'm back....this card was definitely inspired by the t-shirts. It is a technique call 'embooss resist' (check bottom of post for a quick tutorial). I've been hangin' for another 'Raspberry Suite' challenge and so couldn't wait to play along. I only wish I could get my christmas cards done as quickly LOL!



Stamps: Fancy flourishes (PTI), Star prints (PTI)
Card: Pink pirouette, pink passion, whisper white
Ink: Pink pirouette, soft sky, certainly celery, pink passion, chocolate chip, versamark
Accessories: Zigzag scissors, rhinestones, sponge, heat gun, clear embossing powder

Emboss Resist:

* Sponge different colours onto white/vanilla cardstock
* Stamp image with versamark over sponged cardstock
* Use clear embossong powder and heat emboss
* Sponge chocolate chip over embossed image

Hope these instructions help. This method hasn't always worked for me, but this time it turned out 'not too bad'.
