Owl Galaxy

Hello! Today, I have a card to share that I made for the latest Simon Says Stamp Challenge, which is Anything Goes. They are featuring Hero Arts this week, so I wanted to show them off a bit as well too. This post contains affiliate links, at no cost to you.

I used Dreams May Come from Hero Arts for my card. I love this pretty set. I started off by making my background on watercolor paper with Distress Oxide Inks. I used Black Soot, Salty Ocean, Wild Honey, and Worn Lipstick. I blended the bright colors first with my Ink Blending Tools, and then went over them with the Black Soot. To make it really look like a sky, I splattered Wedding Dress irRESISTables, and Golden Glitz Delicata Reinker from Imagine all over the background. The little "stars" the splatters create really make the galaxy come to life.

Next I stamped out the images with VersaMark ink, and I heat embossed them with Detail White Embossing Powder from Stampendous. My card base was made out of a deep purple cardstock. I didn't add anything else to the card because I felt like the galaxy and stamps needed to speak for themselves.

Thank you so much for visiting today. Please come back tomorrow as I will have two posts to share. One for Stampendous and the other is for Simon Says Stamp's Stamptember! Have an inspiring day!

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...

Deco Art and Andy Skinner Blog Hop Finale

Hello! It's time for the finale of the DecoArt and Stampendous blog hop. Have you enjoyed yourself this week? I bet you've got some new techniques that you want to try. I know I do! I am super stoked about my project for today. And it solves a dilemma that we've had in my kids' room for a while. What you see above is 2 pieces of PVC. And some fab DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics ! So, what am I doing with PVC, you ask? Well, my mom bought my son a light saber(Darth Vader's) for Christmas, and he wanted to display it, but we weren't really sure where in his room, and how. I wanted something cooler than hooks, and we thought it would be neat to have the light saber vertical, instead of horizontal. Plus, there was a fab spot for it if it hung in that direction. So, my husband came up with the PVC pip idea, and I altered the pieces. The end cap holds the base, and the small piece of pipe holds up near the end. And the 2 pieces are spaced out enough so that...
