Greetings! Today I am sharing one of the newest Sparkle Blends from Doodles Paper Playground with you, and it has quickly become a favorite of mine. It's called "Cozy", and it has such a fantastic color combination! I'll give you a close up below, but first....let's take a look at my card.
 If you follow me on social media at all, you'll know that one of my favorite stamp companies is Ink Road Stamps. Ink Road has fabulous, snarky, trendy, and amazing stamps, all wrapped up into one fantastic company. One of my most used stamp sets from them is called Mug Life. I thought that the travel cup was perfect for a shaker, so I decided to stamp it 3 times.
 I cut out the wrapper area with an X-Acto knife, and painted the cups with my Koi Watercolors. The stamps were all inked with VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne. Now, check out those fabulous colors n the Cozy Sparkle Blend! It's like a muted rainbow, and it's really quite refreshing. I am over the moon with this one, and I know I'm going to use it a lot! Here's a closer look at "Cozy."
You can see the various sizes of sequins, plus the mini beads, gems, and glitter sequins. This is like a big stew of colors and styles, and it is just beautiful.
Since there are so many colors and varieties in this Sparkle Blend, I opted to keep my card very clean and simple. I mounted it on to a brown card base to go with the color of the cups, and that's it. It really shows off not only the beautiful Blend, but the pretty simplicity of the cups. And that sentiment cracks me up! Be sure to visit the Doodles Paper Playground Blog to see all of the new Sparkle Blends that have been released this month. And if you're ready to shop, head on over to White Rose Crafts to see all of the gorgeous Sparkle Blends that are currently available. All Sparkle Blends are limited edition, so if you see some that you love, get them quickly. 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...
