Add a Little Embellishment

I love a little embellishment….on a card. So when I saw the sentiment “Crafters don’t lie, they embellish” I couldn’t stop laughing. And laughter is a great medicine! So today I have a card using plenty of embellishment.

I love the look of sequins on a card…these ones are extra sparkly! To start, I first stamped on one ink bottle, masked it off and stamped another ink bottle behind it. I stamped and masked off both the sentiment and the fountain pen, as well.

The background was inked over a die cut panel (I used the Altenew cover plate to cut out a panel, then inked over it). And I taped of the “table” to ink that on with Distress Oxide in Gray.

Then I colored all the images and added PLENTY of sequins. Lol. This was fun to do using my new embellishment wand! 🙂

For the fountain pen, I stamped it again onto some wood-grained paper from my stash, then fussy cut it. I added it to the card using foam adhesive.

If I didn’t mention it before, all the stamps are from the March 2020 Hedgehog Hollow Kit. It’s a fun crafty kit this month!

Day 4: Watercolor Smooshing

Today was a great day for the Rainbow Maker Class! I wanted to make every single card that was taught, and I probably still will. But for now I have an Ink Smooshing card inspired by Laura Bassen.

I heat embossed the sentiment (from Reverse Confetti) with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder. It is difficult to tell in this picture, but in real life it’s like a muted silvery gold color. So pretty!

I added a few sequins to finish it off. Hope you like it!

Rainbow Maker: Hugs Sequin Card

I was inspired by Laura Bassen (and Jennifer McGuire) to make this card:

It may not look like it, but there are over 200 sequins (4 mm) on this card, each placed one-by-one! This was definitely a labor of love. I think it was worth it, don’t you?

Loving this class so far.
