Musing Mondays-2 Very Different Cards

Good Morning Stampers!

I was cleaning up my craft room and came across some left over pieces from past projects. I paired some up for the two following cards. They can't be more different from one another, but that is how it goes with left overs!

Here is a sneak peek:


See what I mean! 😊

The first card is really Fall-ish, but I love this stamp set! Country Home is a lovely stamp set with warm welcoming images and words. The Natures Poem DSP goes so well with the image of the milk can and cotton. I think it's just beautiful. I used water color pencils to color in the image and then went over it with Wink of Stella, instead of water, to give it a shimmer. I layered that on left over Crumb Cake card stock. I glued the dsp to the Blackberry Bliss card base, then glued my Crumb Cake layer on top. I am not sure where the word "grateful" came from, that is also one of the "left overs" I was referring to. But I believe it is from one of our retired stamp sets.

 Here is the finished card.

The next card has many elements. I used Flirty Flamingo card stock for the card base as well as the layer I had run through the Big Shot with the Tuffed Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.
I layered up Lovely Lipstick and Whisper White card stock and glued it to the card base. I then glued a layer of All My Love DSP and topped it off with the embossing piece of card stock.  I put on a darling little bow of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon. I had run the retired word, LOVE, through the Big Shot, I first adhered a piece of Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet to the back. I found two Scalloped Circles cut out from the dsp and Glitter Paper. I popped them up with Dimensionals, and added some pearls.


Here is the finished card:


Isn't it great what you can come up with when you go through your left overs! 
I hope you like today's cards!

Technique Tuesday: Smooching

Smooching

I am trying a new thing here. I want to start having a purposeful blog with some order. So I am going to start doing "theme" days.
Monday Musings
Technique Tuesdays 
In the Word Wednesdays
Throwback Thursdays
Embossing Folder Fridays
Saturday Shares

Today is Technique Tuesday and I am going to show you how I do this technique.

Make a pocket using a ziplock baggie. Cut three sides off the bag, leaving it attached on one side.

Lay bag open and add drops(dots or lines) of re-inker to the inside of your pocket.

Spitz some water on the drops and close the bag.
Move the ink around with your fingers until you get the desired mix.


Lay paper over the ink.
Rub 
Flip over and dab any very wet areas with a paper towel. 

In this one (on water color papter) I placed over both sides of the pocket.


Because using water color paper doesn't allow a "flow", I spritz paper after adding the color.
 This one is on Whisper White Card Stock, the flow was much better.
This can be somewhat messy, lol!

Here are the final results, hope you like them!
