Happy New Year from WRC!

Happy New Year! I enjoyed 2018 for the most part, but I am looking forward to starting a new year. I am hoping for a few big changes this year, how about you? Today, the White Rose Crafts team wants to wish all of the "Rosies," as you fans are affectionately called, a Happy 2019 by posting some New Year's creations. And to add to the celebration, White Rose Crafts is running a New Year Special from January 1st through January 8th. You can get 25% off site-wide using the code "CRAFTY NEW YEAR."

Here is my card using the Snowman Family stamp from Wild Rose Studio. I really like using snowmen in the first few months of the year. They work great for holiday cards, but I use them often for winter cards too.

I colored the Snowman Family with Tombow Dual Brush Markers and a Wink of Stella pen for some sparkle.

I also added some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink around the edges, to mimic my bottom layer. That bottom layer is from LemonCraft's Daydream paper collection. It has a soft, wintry feel that I thought was just right for this card.

I needed a little more shine, so I added a few sequins from the Doodles Paper Playground Icicle Sparkle Blend. I adhered them with On Point Glue from Imagine. It turned out to be a sweet little card that's perfect to send to anyone that you didn't have a chance to send a holiday card to. And goodness knows I have a number of those!

Please be sure to visit the White Rose Crafts Blog to see other New Year's projects and get the full scoop on the sale. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

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...
