A Snowy Winter Sky Tutorial

Hi ya everyone!  Today I am sharing this card I made for Imagine using my Fireworks sprays to create a perfectly smooth snowy sky!  I also used the beautiful white mBoss embossing powder over top the fireworks.  You can watch the full video tutorial HERE.  The YouTube has all of the links in the description box for you as well.

No Tricks - All Treats with Hello Bluebird and 7 Kids

Hi ya everyone!  Today I am sharing a card I made during a Saturday Night Live on Facebook!  My products were purchased at 7 Kids.  I used the adorable Hello Bluebird Stamp set called Little Haunters.  I also used Fireworks Sprays to create a watercolored background.

The little characters were colored with Zig markers on Arche's Watercolor Paper!  I used the absolutely adorable new Main Street die from LDRS Creative!  I love this diecut so much.  You can jazz it up or you can use it in silhouette form the way I did.

The sentiment was added in white embossing powder.  You can find the live demonstration HERE:  https://www.facebook.com/MadeForCreativity/videos/1536568649816138/

Hey Pumpkin - LDRS Creative Release

Hi ya everyone!  Did you see the adorable new Pick of the Patch stamp set  and die from LDRS Creative.  It's adorable and can allow you to pop up the pumpkins to give them dimension.  I love the adorable layering you can do with this set too.  It's very simple to line up the stamps and they look fabulous.  

I also used the beautiful 6x6 fall paper pad called Sweater Weather.  This stamp set is currently sold out!

Welcome to a winter and Christmas day!  I've used the adorable Otterly Lovable Stamp set today along with the beautiful paper, Christmas Cottage.  I used the treeline stamp and die as well.  In addition I threw in the Hugs from the Cherry Blossoms Stamp set.

First, I chose my papers and stamps.  I inked the otters in Hybrid Raven ink and watercolored them with my pens.

I did the same with the treeline stamp set and chose a beautiful die from the Practically Oval Die set.   I glued down the otters and the treeline and then cut the black paper out with the gorgeous large die from the set.

Last, I adhered the layers and placed a white sheer ribbon around.  The sentiment was added too with Raven Hybrid ink from LDRS Creative.
