Art Journal, Nature's Wonder...

  Hi Creative Fans!

Today I have incorporated stamps and a stencil with a digital image in one of my art journals!

Your stamps don't always have to be the "main" focal point - I love to use them to "enhance" the main image and add interest to my page - same with the stencil!

The main image is a digital file printed on tissue paper, adhered to my page and coloured with watercolours. I added some acrylic paint to fill around the image on the edges.

I stamped one of the gothic flowers with embossing ink and embossed with fine white embossing powder at the bottom of the page. I used white paint through the honeycomb stencil to cover the digital image sides and top.

To finish off I added a little bit of gold and the letters "Wonder".

Love how this turned out!

I Brake ( Wait ) for Santa !!!

Hello IBFS fans !!

It's Crystal here and I am back with a Christmas card using the Waiting for Santa Shy Bear  

To create my card I stamped my image with TH black soot ink and then added clear embossing powder and heat embossed , this makes my image super black and adds shine  , I copic colored the image and because I used clear embossing powder it does not harm my copics , I cut my image down and added a red layer that I wanted to create a santa look and made a black belt and a silver glitter buckle , ( two squares stacked ) , I then layered this in a stripe layer and then attached all to a green card base , I added some sequins and a no peeking die cut sentiment from red foil cardstock .You can make these pretty quick .

for Waiting for Santa Shy Bear and many other great images visit the I Brake for Stamps online store …. Happy shopping my creative friends ….

I Brake for Fuchsia's

Good morning peeps....Beth here again  this week to inspire you I hope.....today I went out of my comfort zone making my own background using Distress Inks, and 3 stamps from I Brake for Stamps.

To begin my card I stamped the Fuchsia Border Stamp on white card stock using embossing ink next added white embossing powder hit it with the heat gun till the image  set....I then sponged three colors of distress inks to my background...next I used The Postcard Background stamp to layer over my Fuchsia....lastly I cut my title out and used the Happy Birthday stamp from Botanical Stamp Sheet....I wasn't too happy with the blank areas of the border stamp so used some SU markers to color them in.....hope you have enjoyed my card today, will be back next week.

Hugs

Hello I Brake for Stamps fans !!!

It's Crystal here with another card you could mass produce for mailing , I used Christmas Angel Avie for this card , I kept it all gold and white  , I heat embossed chevrons with Halo gold detail embossing powder , I also embossed the stamped image with it , I framed my image in a gold foil card stock and added a tulle bow in gold glitter , these bows add big wow to a simple card , it added very little bulk and can easily be mailed  , inside my card i created layers with the gold foil CS and die cut Merry Christmas from the gold foil CS too , this is one I wish you could see all the shimmer and sparkle , the images I colored the gold stars and added chalk to her cheeks .

Thanks for stopping in ,I hope this card has inspired you to get inky with some rubber stamps today ,

I Brake For Large Owl

Good morning Peeps, Beth here at IBFS with another 3-D project this week.....I love this owl stamp and my oldest granddaughter loves anything owls so I altered this chalkboard as a Christmas present for her.

This project was really pretty easy to do I painted the chalkboard with some caramel colored acrylic paint added a little crackled finish to it....next I used Ranger embossing ink to stamp the Large Owl on Branch image onto the chalkboard sprinkled on some silver embossing powder then heat embossed the image.....colored in the branches with Sakura green gel pen.....all that was left to do was some decorations...the word Hoot is done with letter stickers, added some pine sprigs, ribbon, burlap paper, and some twine the pine cone is a K and Co embellishment.
Next I added some picture frame hardware and some baling twine to hang it.....hope you have enjoyed my little project and hope you are ready for Christmas, I am slowly getting there.

See you next week with something....have a great week.
Hugs
Beth
