Art Journal Entry - Create Your Own Sunshine

Good Day Everyone!

Today I am sharing my latest art journal entry which I am entering into the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, using (Using Pattern Papers).

This is what I created:

Create Your Own Sunshine

I used the gorgeous Believe pattern papers from Bobunny that were included in the Simon Says Stamp (SSS) June 2016 Card Kit and also the stamp set in the kit called Look For the Miracles. I also used a SSS Sunshine die. Also on the left hand side, I did use one of the stamps from my new Dylusions stamp set (Around The Edge).

I used acrylic paints, a Distress ink pad, a white gel pen, embossing, a black pen and gelatos - all so fun and everything brought out the whole sunshine theme - the sun itself is cut from one of the BoBunny patterned papers!

Take care and visit again!

Kennedy Grace Creations Dueling DT's

Hello Everyone!

Today I am happy to be taking part in the monthly Kennedy Grace Creations Dueling DT's.

My fellow Design Team-mate, Cammy, and I are both using the same stamp set and making our own creation with it. We are both on the Kennedy Grace Creations blog today.

This is what I made:

Cammy and I choose the gorgeous Grace's Little Note stamp set:

Grace's Little Note

I used one of the floral images in the set and. First I gold embossed it, then I colored it in with a wet paint brush and Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers (Yellow & May Green). I then fussy cut out the image. I made a gold circular frame using stitched circle dies and gold embossing powder. I also gold embossed a leaf die cut (cut from a Technique Tuesday die, Garden Leaves). I placed everything on the front panel as seen in the photo, adding gold thread nested underneath the flower. The hello sentiment is from the same stamp set & was also gold embossed. Kennedy Grace Creations sequins (Sunshine On The Daisies & Red Sangria) were the perfect finishing detail:

Cammy also created a beauty - I truly admire her talent! I have so enjoyed "dueling" with Cammy - head over to her blog, Pink Room Therapy to see her creation. It definitely inspires me!

Showcasing The New Loving Mom Stamp Set (Kennedy Grace Creations)

The Loving Mom stamp set was released last week - what a gorgeous and inspiring stamp set!

As soon as I received this gorgeous set from Michelle (Owner of Kennedy Grace Creations), I started creating!

These are the cards that I have made so far:

The floral images were colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. The background is stencilled with distress inks on a Heidi Swapp stencil.

 This shaker card is made with a Wow Violet embossing powder and the new Springtime sequins.

This was done by painting the floral images in the set with Distress Stains (Peacock Feathers & Seedless Preserves) and a Dylusions spray (Funky Fuchsia).

The following cards were all done with the same reverse stamping technique:

Bright & Colorful Birthday Wishes Card

Hi Everyone!

A quick share of a bright & colorful birthday card:

I made this card with the Bouquet Die from Concord & 9th. I gold embossed the die cut with Ranger Platinum Gold embossing powder. The background was done on a piece of Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers (Pink, Yellow & Carmine Red), blended with water and a wet #6 brush. The Birthday Wishes sentiment is from the Birthday Bits stamp set from Simon Says Stamp, stamped with a Versafine Onyx Black ink pad. I embellished with various gorgeous Kennedy Grace Creations sequins and the front panel is cut from a scalloped frame die from Craftin Desert Divas.

The final touch is a Lawn Fawn trimmings cord in Pink Lemonade. I just love how all the elements came together!

My son, Ethan, brought me this dandelion as I was taking photos and asked me to include it - I happily complied with his 4 year old wishes.

Thanks so much for coming by - I hope that you're all well and happy!

Hugs and happiness to all of you!
