Porpoise Fun Windowrama

Greetings! This week, the Stampendous Design Team is "Under the Sea" projects. I am really excited to share this card with you, because it uses the Windowrama Die set. I have so much fun making these shadowbox-type cards. Below are my full instructions.
Supplies:
Stampendous:
QS5028: Porpoise Fun Stamp Set
DCP1012: Windowrama Die Set
DCP1005: Fitted frames Set A
FRG10C: Shaved Ice

Other:
Bo Bunny: Powder Blue Vintage Cardstock #12BPV968
Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers: 021, 037, 044, 047, 062, 063, 065, 072, 091, 092, 097, 302, 303
Imagine: On Point Glue, VersaFine Clair Ink in Nocturne, Tear It! Tape
Canson Mixed Media Paper
Ranger: Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass and Faded Jeans, Ink Blending Tools
Acetate

Directions:
1. Stamp the Porpoise Fun image on to Mixed Media Paper with VersaFine Clair Ink.

2. Color the stamped image in with the Zig Markers listed.

3. Die cut the colored image with the circle from the Windowrama Die Set.

4. Die cut two panels of the Windowrama out of Powder Blue Vintage Cardstock.

5. Die cut the circle out of one of the Windowrama panels.

6. Cut a piece of acetate to fit behind the window and adhere with Tear It! Tape.

7. On the inside of the back piece of the Windowrama, apply Faded Jeans Distress Ink with an Ink Blending Tool, making a circle slightly bigger than the die cut colored image. This will create a halo effect around the image.

8. Stamp the sentiment on Mixed Media cardstock with VersaFine Clair ink.

9. Die cut the sentiment with the Large "B" Fitted Frame.

10. Ink the sentiment lightly with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.

11. Adhere the colored image, sentiment, and seal up the Windowrama with Tear It! Tape.

12. Apply On Point Glue to the lower half of the circle, and sprinkle on Shaved Ice.
I love this happy little porpoise! He's such a cutie. And pairing him with the Windowrama Die set adds fun dimension and interest. I hope you'll get the Windowrama for yourself. There is so much you can do with it. Be sure to visit the rest of the Stampendous Team, you can get their links over on the Stampendous Blog. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil  and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga

Deco Art and Andy Skinner Hop

This is a very exciting week for the Stampendous team! We are hanging out with the ultra cool Deco Art Mixed Media team, each using each other's products to share some incredible creations with you. These companies go hand in hand, so using each other's products is easy. And the results are amazing. We are of course featuring Andy Skinner's stamps, who is the DecoArt International Education Coordinator.  And yup, there are prizes! But I want you to go to the Stampendous Blog for all of that info. The link is at the bottom of the post. Now, on to my project. I made a cool wall hanging today. I started off with a piece of MDF and I drilled 2 holes, and covered it with DecoArt's white Gesso. After it dried, I used Andy's Alcohol and Media fluid Acrylics Layering Technique. You can check out his how-to video HERE . Needless to say, it's a great technique, and I loved doing it. Once I finished with the aforementioned technique, I sealed the piece w

Changes

Greetings! I don't have a project to share with you today, but rather, an announcement. I have decided to completely revamp my blog, and move it to a new site. I've been blogging at 21st Century Pillow Book for over 10 years now, and it's been wonderful. But the "Pillow Book" aspect got lost somewhere along the way. If you don't know what that is, read my description in the blog header, or do a quick search. They are really very cool. Anyway, I thought it was due time for me to work on a new blog, more of a brand, etc. So, I invite you to now join me over at alisonheikkila.com . I've still got some polishing up to do, and a whole lot of learning, as WordPress is completely different from Blogger, but I am really excited for this new site. I've wanted to do this for a long time, and I am happy to finally be getting it done. Bear with me as I figure out the best way to make it all look and flow. I thankfully have some help with that. But I think you
