Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - CAS Christmas





Thank you so much to everyone who joined in with our Anything Goes Challenge !

Yes, we have a new challenge over at Simon Says Wednesday Challenge !

The theme this week is

For the background I used some of the new Tim Holtz Micro Glaze.  It has a hair wax/Vaseline type texture and is a water resistant sealer.  I laid the snowflake stencil over the top of my watercolour card and then rubbed the micro glaze into the snowflakes with my finger.  I think I'll try perhaps a sponge from the ink blending tool next time as the snowflakes aren't as defined as I would have liked.  Having said that, I do like the subtleness and blur of them which is how snowflakes would actually be  when falling !! 

You can see a list of everything I used below !

We hope you can join us in our challenge this week and we look forward to seeing what you make !

Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a great day !

Kuretake UK - Inktober ! Let It Shine

Welcome to Kuretake UK’s Inktober Every October, artists all over the world take on the InkTober drawing challenge by doing one ink drawing a day the entire month. To find the “theme of the day” hop on over to Kuretake UK’s Facebook page where they will have full details. 

 The theme for today is “Let it Shine”. 



 Products used : 

 Zig Woodcraft Marker – Primrose 
Zig Woodcraft Marker – Marigold 
 Zig Woodcraft Marker – Antique Metallic 

 To make this card I firstly used the Primrose Woodcraft Marker pen and coloured a whole piece of watercolour card. I die cut some feathers from masking paper and laid these over the top of the ink. Using the Marigold Woodcraft Marker, again colour the whole of the watercolour card. 



 Leaving the original masking paper feathers on the card, die cut some more and place in different positions. Colour the whole of the watercolour card with the Antique Metallic pen. 





 Very carefully remove the die cut feather masks to reveal your layered feathers. 



 Die cut three feathers from watercolour card and colour each one, Primrose, Marigold and Antique Metallic. 




 Heat emboss your sentiment with gold embossing powder onto black card. Assemble the card. Here is my completed card ! 



I hope I have inspired you and look forward to seeing your shiny creations ! Thank’s for popping by !
