Happy Haunting

Hi! Welcome to my blog. I have really enjoyed using the brand new Halloween stamps from Just For Fun, and you can see all of them here and here. On this card I used the Haunted Moon Tree.

First I stamped the 2-Sided Doodle Background/Frame on cream cardstock and rubbed a little Micro Glaze over each circle to act as a resist. I used various colors of Color Bursts on the background. Next I stamped the tree and Tiny Black Kat using Jet Black Staz On ink. The eyes are polymer stickers.

The theme for our challenge this month is Halloween! Come on over and join in the fun and you might even win a gift certificate to the store. You do not have to use a Just For Fun Stamp to enter.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day!

Cherish Each Day

Hello and welcome to my blog! I want to show you a tag I made with a fun technique using Micro Glaze. Micro Glaze is a waxy cream that you rub over images to resist color. It is so easy to use.

On my tag you can see where I used the Micro Glaze -- over the saying and clock. I wanted these to be the focal point of my tag. I then used Distress inks and painted them on my tag using my water brush. The Micro Glaze on the clock and saying resisted the watercolor.  I stamped the bird and also used water over it to give a watercolor look.

I used a feather Spellbinders die and cut using kraft card stock. I splattered some watercolors over the piece and layered it on the tag so that the colors could show through. I added the metal word and butterflies from Tim Holtz's Butterfly Frenzy die.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day!
