Several posts ago (here) I featured a few of the new Spellbinders’ Celebra’tions stamp/die/ink/etc collection, created by designer Richard Garay.
I finally had a chance to play with some of the goodies in the collection. Here are a few of my experiments, using stamps, dies, string, paper, ink and an embossing folder, all from the collection:
I first die cut the large and medium rectangles (LOVE that perforation!). (Green paper is from the collection. Yummy colors.) I stamped the vase and flowers (from the #Sweet set) in VersaMark, embossed in black, then colored with Distress Markers. A touch of yellow Stickles added some sparkle. I splattered a dash of the Luscious Silk ink (the bottle comes with a built-in brush) over the white background, tied a piece of blue Linen thread around the white panel and mounted it to the green panel.
The text frame was stamped in Lime Green, the words in Memento black. I fussy cut the piece then added it to the card using foam tape.
The process was similar for this one:
BUT …. I ran the purple piece through the fabric embossing folder — I love the look. (I’ll have a better look in another card.)
I’ll show a few more cards over the next few days.
Thanks for stopping by!
