Birthday Wishes with Dreamweaver

Welcome to the birth of a new year...2015 to be precise! In honor of that, we've decided that our monthly challenge for January will be Birthday Wishes. We'd love for you to play along with us, and link your creations to the Inlinkz tool at the bottom of this post, or on the Dream It Up! blog, for a chance to win the stencil of your choice...and remember, using Dreamweaver products gets you bonus points towards an extra stencil!

Here's my birthday wish for this week:

I used the Double Glitter technique with the Vertical Balloons stencil. I have some fun neon glitters in my stash, so I thought they would be perfect. 


I also used the Birthday Greetings stencil for my sentiment. I kept the card pretty simple so that the cool balloons would stand out. Glitter is so hard to photograph, so I'm sure you can imagine they look even better in person. 

I'd like to wish an early Happy Birthday to our fearless leader, Lynell! Her birthday is on the 4th, so I wanted to join in a week early with my post to give her my well-wishes. Happy Birthday, my friend!!! Here's the full list for the week.

What a bright, happy, and fun card, Alison! Did you use the Dreamweaver mesh panels as a stencil for the green paper background? Happy New Year!

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks.   The colors look a little off ...

Can you tel that I had soooooo much fun with her?!? It was a blast to rework her beautiful face and turn half of her into a sugar skull. The flowers are really what inspired me to do it. They are so big and be...
