One Crazy Stamper uses High Hope Stamps on Layouts

Welcome OCS Fans;

Hi it's Bev here today and I am super excited as this is my first DT project for One Crazy Stampers using High Hopes Stamps. I also am thrilled to tell you that I will not be doing cards but scrapbook layout pages and some of the accents will be co-ordinating stamps for the themes of the projects. It should be great fun.

This page is showcasing Peeking Kitty with Heart, Friends Fur Ever on a layout of my eldest Grand Daughter and her Cat Miles. The photos are from this past xmas but OMG look at the 2 of them together.



To start my project I stamped the image and copic coloured him as close as I could get to his real colouring. I then always highlight using signo white gel pen.


In the close ups you get a better view of some details on the page.



Supplies used:
  • Stamps:  Peeking Kitty with Heart P128, Friends Fur Ever F129
  • Copic Markers: R20, R21, R22, R24, R27, R29, E00, E01, E31, E33, E35, W5, W7, G12, G21, G24

Iridescent Chipboards from Creative Embellishments


So I am multi tasking today with a great page from our visit to McKee Gardens in Florida. I used lots of Creative Embellishments products on this page along with the Sketches in Thyme February 1st challenge sketch below. With the colour from the garden photos i chose to use Ann Butler's Iridescent medium to cover the chippies. In the background over the print papers I used Creative Embellishment stamp in black.

Creative Embellishments Products
Stamp: Squares
Other: print paper, cardstock, flowers, Ann Butler Iridescent medium, stickers
Sketch: SIT 




In this photo you can see proposed chippie placement and the stamping on the background.


The chippies are covered with limelight iridescents which gives them a slight sheen.



The smaller size photos looked lost on the central section so I quickly added iridescents to the different sized squares to fit the photos... so they were framed too. 


With the core and main page done I did some flowes along with some stickers to form clustered sections.



Another clustered section.


The main section through the centre is awesome and the photos are still the main attraction.

 

Be sure to visit the STORE for these and so many other products..... chipboards, stamps, stencils and flair buttons too.... and the greatest service. 
So happy to have you visit.... see you again soon.

Fun Techniques using Ann Butler Products

Fun Techniques using Ann Butler Products


I created amazing backgrounds using Ann Butler products. Wtih so many colour options creating is fun. 




I created this background for my card. I used the soft elegant colours to compliment the papers.


Step 1:

These photos show the technique used to create the finished look.
I stamped the coloured i planned to use on a scrap... and added some water to thin it and to where I could grab the colours from the paper with a paint brush.



Step 2:
This photo shows how i spread the colours over the main card base in about 3rds and blending together at the edges of colour change.



Step 3:

After applying an accent border piece of paper I took the paint brush with lots of ink on it and flicked it onto the background using a mix of colours.



Step 3:

With the main background done I 3Dfoam popped the print paper section with the bird ready to apply to center of the background.




Step 4:

With everything glued together I have an amazing card for any birthday and the background colours look amazing with the print images.


******************************************

I created this background using Ann Butler Iridescents... which look metallic or pearlescent.... and coloured chipboard with it too. What a rich elegant finish.


Step 1:

I put the medium on the baggie on my hand and then applied some water... I then scrunched it in my hand to spread it around on the baggie. It was then dabbed onto the tester paper.

Step 2:

After seeing the tester I then took the big jump and I appied the same technique to this scrapbook page layered background. It looks awesome. With all the fun bright colours of paper the pearlized iridescents medium in Orchid was perfect.


Step3:

While testing the iridescent medium on paper I decided to test it also on chipboard.... and OMG I love it... what a fabulous shimmer to add to make great accents for your projects.


Step 4:

Here is my project using lots of Iridescent medium on my scrapbook page.
