Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Simon Says,,,TAG IT

Here is my entry to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Simon Says,,,,TAG IT. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads and my Prismacolor Colored Pencils to make my tags.  I also used Recollections Embossing Powder in Ebony on my Eiffel Tower gold tag.  I used the following stamps from Unity Stamp Company: 1.Je t'aime 2. Love is in the pages 3. I love BIG books

I think my tags are going to make some awesome bookmarks.

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Stamp-It

Here is my entry into Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Stamp-It.  I had a lot of fun with these Owl Stamps.  I tried using my Color Pencils and Gamsol but I'm not sure if I really favor that technique.  LOL  My Gamsol experimentation last night was a disasters.  I had more Gamson on me instead of my card.  I think I like my Prismacolor Blender Pencil better.  I made this card for my best friend.  If she reads my blog I'm sure I just spoiled the surprise.

Simon Says Monday Challenge: Boldly go into STAMPtember!

I'm hitting the ground and running into STAMPtember!  Here is my entry into Simon Says Monday Challenge: Boldly go into Stamptember!  I fell in love with the Inkadinkado Stamp Set "Test Tubes." I love these awesome bold stamps for Halloween.  I took a piece of Tim Holtz Watercolor Cardstock and used my blending tool and applied Tim Holtz Distress Ink "Vintage Phone" and "Black Soot" to my background.  Once all my ink was applied I activated it with some water.  When my background was dry, I added text by using Unity Stamp Company's "Insta-live,love, dream" and stamping it with Memento "Tuxedo Black" ink.  To finish off the background, I heat embossed the sentiment and spider web from Inkadinkado Stamp Set "All Hallow's Eve" with Recollections Embossing Powder in "Ebony" and "Gold."  To make the Test Tubes and Beakers, I embossed the Inkadinkado "Test Tubes" Stamp Set with Ebony and then water colored my imaging using my Winsor & Newton Cotman Water Colour Sketchers' Pocket Box.  I hope you enjoy! HAPPY STAMPTEMBER!
