Crafting Forever Stampin Up

Hi card making friends, my shares for you today are Crafting Forever Stampin Up.  When I saw this new stamp set in the upcoming 2017 Annual Catalogue, I was so elated.  Then I was over the moon when it was part of our Demonstrator preorder, whoo hoo.

I have two cards to share with you today and a colour challenge.  I also created two cards for Stamping and Blogging and will be loading those later today for members to case.

Both cards are created with the NEW Lemon Lime Twist card stock (I’m in love), and YOU NEED this new colour!.

Card #1 – Crafting Forever Stampin Up

• I stamped the fountain pens in Archival Black and dried the ink with my heat tool (be careful, this ink takes a LONG time to dry.
• I used my ink pad lids and blender pen to colour the images, Lemon Lime Twist, Dapper Denim, Emerald Envy and Berry Burst
• The Sentiment for both cards is from another new set, Soft Sayings Card Kit and I’ll be sharing more about that kit very soon.

and my layout is roughly cased from a card I saw Brian King do.  Thanks for the inspiration Brian

Card #2 Crafting Forever Stampin Up

• For this card I used Emerald Envy and Lemon Lime Twist ink to create the watercolour background.
• When it was dry, I splattered clean water on it and wicked it up with Paper Towel to create the splatter.
• I coloured the pen again as above and this time cut it out and added it to the card with Dimensionals.
• Same sentiment as above.

Recipes for both cards are at the end of this post.

This NEW Crafting Forever Stampin Up stamp set will be available to customers June 1st when the new catalogue goes live.

Thanks so much for visiting me today.
