MHKDesigns March/April Challenge!

Hello friends!

It's that time again - a NEW Design Seeds Challenge over at MHKDesigns!

Now, your creation doesn't have to include ALL the colors - just do something inspired by the colors and/or picture!

I created a gift card holder using the "Egg-cellent Easter" Digital Paper and the "Stencil in the Roses" Stamp Set!

I have a gift card holder die for by Big Shot, so I printed off the paper and cut it out.  

I added some glitter to the roses to make them POP after I fussy cut them all out.  I just love how beautifully the stamps print!

We would love to see what you create!  Can't wait to see them!

Until next time,

Stick It Down - March Guest Card Designer!

Hello friends!

I'm a Featured Card Designer this month over at Stick it Down!

I'm so excited to share this card I made based on our monthly Sketch:

I used SparkleNSprinkle's Magic Speckle and Strawberry Embossing Powder to create the cool effect on the honeycomb embossed portion! 

I hope you enjoy and join us at the challenge this month!

Until next time,

Stick It Down - March 2016

Hello friends!

Welcome to another fun month at Stick It Down!

Here is the fun sketch we have to use this month:

Here is what I came up with:

I used a glitter inlay technique to make the hexagons!  I simply took my 2.5" Tear-ific Tape (from SparkleNSprinkle) and attached it to a piece of cardstock.  I put my hexagon Thinlet Dies (Stamps of Life) on top and use the Ink Transfer Plate (Sizzix) in place of a regular cutting plate.  When you run it through the Big Shot, it just cuts through the top layer of the Tear-ific Tape, leaving your design. You can then pop out the pieces, revealing the adhesive and add glitter.  I used Pinkerbell and Lavender Iris Glitters (from SparkleNSprinkle). It's a really fun technique!

I do hope you will come out and play along with us this month!

Until next time,

Jess
