fresh & fun

Here is another card I made for the Glossy cardstock Way’s to use it challenge and for the Sketch challenge SC116. I couldn’t stop using that layout. It’s bad! This time it’s just the mirror image of the layout.

For this one I wanted to see if you can use the Chalk Dew Drops for a resist technique. First I stamped Canvas in Pixie Dust over the glossy circle. Over that I stamped the small flower from Office Accoutrement in different colors. I then heat set it with my heat gun. If you are a patient person, which I am absolutely NOT, you could just set it aside and wait for it to dry. That never works for me. LOL I will smear it while checking if it is finally dry. So I always use my heat gun.

Then I used a sponge and Cool Caribbean classic ink over the dew drop images. I rubbed a little too hard and the center of the flowers came off. Good news though…This ink resist the classic ink.

I stamped Paisley on Lavender Lace with one of the purple dew drops. I can’t believe I am using purple. I NEVER use purple. EVER!!!! But Charmaine send me those dew drops…and two out of 8 were purple. What can a girl do? Use them of course.

The ribbon a double sided velvet ribbon from Starlitstudio. The greeting is from Office Accoutrement.

I am not so sure about this card. I am glad I tried the resist out though. I guess it’s the purple that is turning me off just a tad. I hope there are purple lovers out there reading this. Let me know if you like it.
