Brea Reese Alcohol Inks – How Awesome Are These Inks

April 29, 2019

Hey peeps.  The Brea Reese alcohol inks are amazing!!  I had a chance to play with a few of them thanks to the lovely ladies over at Momenta. There are a few brands on the market when it comes to alcohol inks however these flow so smoothly and easily to me.  I feel like a mad scientist when I’m working with these inks.  The colors blend and flow on yupo paper, waterproof paper and waterproof panels with ease.

My color combo was created using ocean green, lake blue and rose.  I love this color combination for achieving ocean colors in depths of blue all the way to purple.  I added some gold to this color combo as well to give it some shimmer.  The gold is not part of the Brea Reese alcohol inks. To keep the color moving swiftly across my paper I also used blending solution from Brea Reese.

To create a soft look, I made sure to use a heat tool however I kept the air blowing quickly on the paper and didn’t leave it in one place for too long.  Note: if you use more blending solution, you will get a lighter color palette. Adding in drops of gold and keeping the ink flowing gave me great veins in this piece. With just one panel I was able to get two cards made.

I decided to keep both cards very clean and simple. I heat embossed some card stock with gold rush embossing powder from Ink On 3.  The beautiful hello die cut is from Pink and Main and looks gorgeous in gold. Gold foil paper was a perfect addition to this card and worked nicely with the gold in the alcohol ink. A little bit of gold splatter and gold floss finished off these cards.

Celebrate With Pink and Main Celebrate Stamps and Dies

March 28, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m back today on the Pink and Main blog sharing the Celebrate stamp set and coordinating dies.  There is nothing better than making a card and finding the perfect die to go with it.  I’m a huge font snob (yup I said it) and the font Pink and Main uses for their die cuts is one of my favorites. This celebrate die cut is my all time favorite due to it’s size and style.  This Pink and Main celebrate stamp set and die has such a variety of ways to make a statement on your cards.  You can also pair it with the Birthday stamp set available over in the Pink and Main shop.

So head on over to the Pink and Main blog where I share how this card came together.  I’ll see you over there.  Have a great day everyone.

Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Ca Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Cards. I'm using two products I don't think I've ever used together before. Hot foil plates and stencils for the win! I have two very different color palettes today that aren't your traditional red and pink cards.

I do have a favorite out of these two cards. Can you guess which one? Check out the tutorial to see just how easy these cards were to put together. (link in bio)

Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine c Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine cards. In today's tutorial I made a trio of valentine cards from one background. This was so easy and so much fun to make. Where are my Distress Oxide Spray lovers?

With three colors of @tim_holtz Distress Oxide Sprays these cards were created. I don't have all the sprays and are "collecting" them little by little. The fear of using these sprays have been unleashed. 😂😂😂 After watching more and more videos from Tim, my nervousness of "messing it up" has been replaced by "oh that's so pretty". 

By using just two die cuts from products from the January 2023 release from @heroarts

The link for the tutorial is in the bio and I hope I inspire you to start creating your Valentine's Day Cards.

The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now available. The Terrific Textures stamp designed by @melaniemuenchinger was so much fun to play with.

I stamped the image several times in different color inks from Gina K. Designs. The colors are Passionate Pink, Wild Dandelion, Key Lime, Lucky Clover and Ocean Mist. Next I filled in the area using my W-G 7 @olomarker to change the paper from white to this pretty warm gray color. 

While I was stamping the images, I made sure to leave a section blank where I could place my Happy Birthday sentiment. This was such a great card to great.
