Masculine Card With Brea Reese Alcohol Inks

October 17, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m back with another masculine card with Brea Reese alcohol inks.  I know many of us struggle with making masculine cards.  I’m trying to break that cycle and make at least one masculine card a week so I have plenty on hand when I need them. Making masculine cards with Brea Reese alcohol inks is quick and easy.

For today’s card I wanted to add lots of texture to my card for a really cool look.  First I applied three darks colors of ink onto 110lb card stock with a blending tool.  Next I came back in with a piece of felt wrapped around the edge of a straight ruler and laid down a few irregular stripes with yellow, red and green inks.  This gave a great color variation.  Once this panel was dried I ran it through my die cutting machine with an embossing folder.  I have done this technique before and I always love how it looks.

Keeping this card clean and simple, I die cut out a quick thanks sentiment from Simon Says Stamp using brown and yellow card stock.  Next I stamped out a sentiment from the Thankful Heart stamp set also from Simon Says Stamp and heat embossed it in gold embossing powder.  I trimmed that piece down to form a small banner I could pop under the thanks die cut. I also swiped on a small amount of gold alcohol over there raised areas of the background. To finish off the card I adhered it to a yellow card base.

I’m so happy with the way this card turned out. What’s so amazing with the Brea Reese alcohol inks, the variations of backgrounds are endless.  Here’s a close up of this stunning card. You can click on my Brea Reese Alcohol Inks link to see more projects from me.

I would love to see what designs you come up with using Brea Reese alcohol inks. Make sure to tag me on Instagram so I can see your work.  Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here soon.

SSS Monday Challenge – Sunny Studio Sunflower Fields

October 9, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m playing in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge using the Sunny Studio Sunflower Fields stamp set.  This week’s challenge is fall/autumn cards.  This is perfect since I just made a card that absolutely fits the challenge.

For my card today I used the Sunny Studio Sunflower Fields stamp set.  I am so in LOVE with this set.  It makes beautiful and easy sunflowers for your cards or home decor.  It’s really easy to layer which is a bonus for me since this is not my strongest talent. 😂

Sunny Studio Sunflower Fields

I mean look how amazing these sunflowers are!  I used Altenew inks for my yellow colors since they come in packs of coordinating colors.  That makes it super easy to layer stamp.  I arranged the sunflowers around the border of my card and left just enough white space to stamp my sentiment.

These sunflowers look so real.  The details on the petals are amazing.  And even if you are slightly off when stamping it doesn’t matter.  SOOOO stunning.  Here is another angle so you can really see the details.

Thanks for stopping by today.  If you want to see more inspiration on my blog make sure to click through the posts to get some inspiration for your next card.  I have tutorials as well just click the tutorial link above to check them out.  You can also find me on Youtube under my channel mzdanajoy.

I’ve supplied a shopping list before.  I have used affiliate links however there is no cost to you for using them.  Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here soon.

Heat Emboss With Makeup

October 5, 2019

Happy World Card Making Day. I have a new tutorial for you on sharing how to heat emboss your cards with makeup! Yes, you read that correct…makeup!  This is such a cool way to add color to your card instead of ink or regular embossing powder.  Since I have retired, I don’t wear a lot of makeup anymore so it was just sitting there waiting to be used from something else.  Today tutorial is all about using your makeup as just another tool for your crafting happiness.

So here is the card we are going to create today.  Look how gorgeous it looks against the makeup palette.  I could just stare at this all day. 😂 The simple things that make me happy in this world. Heat emboss cards just look so much cooler I think. So why not heat emboss with makeup?

Heat Emboss With Makeup

You will see in the tutorial just how easy this is to create.  The possibilities is really endless here on the color combinations you can create.  The stamp I’m using today is from Sunny Studios and it’s called Elegant Leaves.  This is such a pretty stamp set and as soon as I saw it I had to have it in my crafty stash.

Heat Emboss Your Card With Makeup

As you can see in this photo you not only get color with this technique, you also get some texture as well.  That’s what I really enjoy about the sticky embossing powder.  It leaves some granulation behind that you can feel on your card.  (CAUTION: Do not overhead this embossing powder).  I’ll share my tip on how to make sure you keep that granulation in the video. So onto the video. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.  I’ve used affiliate links for your convenience at no cost to you. Want to see other tutorials from me?

Thanks for stopping by today.  See you back here soon.
