I'm not good at watercoloring. I really enjoy my BLENDS alcohol markers, though. The color goes on smooth without streaking. The DUO shades make shading easier for me. I actually LIKE open image stamp sets now, that need coloring. It's relaxing!

Simply cut along the panels and then choose the white side or the vanilla side. This card shows the vanilla diagonal lattice design over TEA ROOM SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER #146894. SO easy with BIG impact!!
This card is a "gardener's delight," for sure!
Here is a white floral section over Coastal Cabana paper from the BRIGHTS 6X6" DESIGNER SERIES PAPER PACK #146964. Lovely and quick!!
My favorite adhesive is TOMBOW LIQUID GLUE #110755 and I used tiny dot of adhesive for these laser-cut panels. The FINE-TIP GLUE PEN #3138309 works well, also.
Try these Laser-Cut papers!!
Do you love to color? THIS is for YOU!! These 3 stained glass panels were created with just one sheet of the NEW "Graceful Glass" 6X6" Specialty Designer Series VELLUM #146344! Use either Blends or Stampin' Write Markers to color on the backside of this EMBOSSED image vellum! So LOVELY!!

Accented Blooms Stamp Set # 146678 wood OR # 146681 clear, has a coordinating punch called Tailored Tag # 145667! This set pairs perfectly with Stampin' Blends, alcohol markers!! Note how the lower flowers have a soft shadow of Light Crumb Cake Blends. The base card is embossed with the NEW Subtle Embossing Folder # 143706 that gives a "linen look!"
On this card I did a Resist Technique for the sentiment. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark Ink and heat embossed it using Clear Embossing Powder. Next, I used the Old Olive Blends Marker to write over the "hello" which had no clear embossing on the letters.
I highly recommend this lovely Accented Blooms and Tailored Tag Punch for your collection! ALL Stampin' BLENDS are in stock now so get them while you can! You will love them - I do!!

NEW Abstract Impressions Stamp Set
part ONE
This is Abstract Impressions Stamp Set #147513, 21 photopolymer images. MANY years ago, maybe 19-20, Stampin' Up! had a popular stamp set called, "Roses in Winter." This flower is from that set, in honor of Stampin' Up!'s 30th Anniversary Year!!
This is my FAVORITE color combo "this week" - Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lime Twist! It POPS so well!! It's happy!! There are so many exciting new colors to play with!
Really enjoyed creating with these easy multi-step images and fun new colors! My next post will use different images from the same Abstract Impression Stamp Set! Stop Back!
Sometimes you want to create something soft and special. I really like the look of this simple sponging technique!
I used the DEBOSSED side of the Lovely Floral Dynamic Embossing Folder that is part of the May 2018 Early Release Promo. I prefer Sponge Daubers #133773, but you can also use Stampin' Sponges #141337. Pounce the dauber on a ink pad to collect ink. Then gently rub onto the image. It's very easy because it is "inexact." Rubbing lightly is best - you can always add more color if desired.
The sentiment is stamped in Soft Suede ink instead of a bold black ink. Try this simple coloring trick!
This is a sweetly simple card! These charming little flowers are from the Early Release May 2018 Promo. The color is Calypso Coral.
Note the dry embossed image peeking out under the layer! It's the Lovely Floral Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder! Another new item in the May Promo!
YOU can purchase these BRAND NEW products NOW, plus the NEW 2018-20 In Color ink pads!!
