SISC #67: 3-2-1 Recipe

Welcome to another StampInsanity Challenge! This week we Gurlz of Ward 2 have been challenged (and are challenging YOU!) to make a project using a 3-2-1 Recipe. 3 buttons, 2 patterned papers, and 1 piece of ribbon. I’ve never done a recipe challenge like this one before, so I gave it my best shot!

I started off with Izzy, from What the Heart Wants collection. She’s got this subtle creepiness about her that I love! I colored her up with my markers.

I kept the rest of the card pretty simple, because I wanted the recipe to stand out. You can easily see all 3 “ingredients.” I liked the patterned paper so much (in what I thought was a cool and unusual combination), that I didn’t want to hide it with a lot of stuff.

I really like the green button. Take a look. The center indent reminds me very much of the shape on the black patterned paper that I used.

It’s a simple card…but I think Izzy adds just the right amount of creep to it! Now it’s time for you to hop over to the rest of the Groovy Gurlz! Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

The coloring is amazing! Love the red hair. The paper combo that you chose is fab, but that ribbon sends this card over the edge! Beautiful work hun! Hugs, Eri

Mediterranean Dreams Shaker

Hello! Today I have a card that features the Mediterranean Dreams Subscription Kit from White Rose Crafts.  This fabulous Subscription Kit brings together sparkling, azure Mediterranean seas, sun-bleached shores and the rich colors of vibrant Mediterranean cultures in a carefully curated kit. I knew I just had to try the Jillibean Soup shaker card and I chose to use one of the stamps (from Kaisercraft) to make my background. I stamped the seashell with Tea Dye Distress Oxide all over the background of the card. Then I applied some Walnut Stain Distress Oxide to my craft mat, spritzed it with some water, and splattered it on to my card base. Last, I inked the edges with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide with a Mini Blending Brush. For my sentiment, I die cut a stitched rectangle from my stash, out of the pearly yellow cardstock that came in the kit and stamped it with "Wish You Were Here" stamp from the same "Summer Splash" stamp set, with StazOn Pigment ink. And ...

Echo Park Blog Hop with Imagine

Greetings! This is my second post for the day. This one is not part of the 31 Days of Halloween, but rather a super-duper blog hop that the Artists in Residence for Imagine are doing with Echo Park . So if you're here for my Day 7 project, please check out the post HERE . But before you do that, scroll on to check out this one. There are prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check out the Imagine Blog as well as the Echo Park Blogs for details. I created my background by applying Dandelion and Tangelo Memento Ink to my brayer. Then I sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9 to help the colors blend and to act as an extender to keep the inks wet longer. After I rolled the colors out on to watercolor paper and let it dry, I stamped the lovely doily-like image from Echo Park's Simply Sweet Stamp Set with Grape Jelly Memento. I also received the super pretty Heart Doily Designer Die  which I used with a true purple cardstock. But it needed something....and in rolls the super fabul...
