Stamping On Acrylic

Well hello Monday, this is a card I created for the 

Stampendous & Clear Scraps Blog Hop last week. 

I stamped the front with StazOn ink then colored behind the

images with alcohol ink pens, then I spray painted

the cover gold. 

 Then I added the goodness. 

 I used leftover kit pieces to make the card, between Clear Scraps

and the Creating Made Easy Kits.

Vintage Style Pion/Clear Scraps Card

This week Clear Scraps is paring up with Pion Design for projects and

I have this vintage style Clear Scraps Send It Clear Card!

For the cover I used paint, I covered it completely in acrylic paint,

then left it to dry for 2 hours. 

After that I took a nail brush and washed it off gently to create the

vintage look. I fell in love! :) 

Aren't these papers lovely too?!

Be sure to head over to the CS blog to see all the projects!

Thinking Of You Card

These Send it Clear Acrylic cards make me so happy so I decided

to pair one with the new Avocado Arts stamps and

some Anna Griffin paper to create this simple floral card. 

At the end of the day it was just a card for my stash, because

I felt like I needed to create...THERAPY! :)

Happy Friday my friends!

Blessings- Burlap W/ Acrylic Card

Hey there friends, 

I have a card to share today, it's a Clear Scraps Send It Clear card using the 

Expression "Blessings" that is in the CME November Kit.

I used a texturizing spray (Irresistable) on the title-then I inked it with StazOn.

On the inside I used the burlap strip from the kit, and then added

a velvet ribbon on the outside flap. 

I guess i was feeling like adding textures this week! :)

Back To School Tutorial With Xyron

Good morning friends, YES it's finally Friday! OHHH 

I have missed you Friday!! haha

I have a fun tutorial up today - a Back To School Card And Pencil Set,

using XYRON, Samantha Walker and some Clear Scraps too. 

I used this adorable and very nifty Xyron Teresa Collins Adhesive Kit

and it's a fun time let me tell ya. It has everything including an adhesive eraser!

First of all trim out 4X6 patterned paper.

Punch both sides using a border punch. 

Trim out Owl Border Paper piece. 

Peel off protective film (both sides). 

Using Teresa Collins Xyron®  Tape Runner adhere Owl Border piece

to the base of the card (front side). 

Flip card base over- apply adhesive on the back only in the places 

you have the owl border paper. 

Lay acrylic card onto border punched paper. 

Trim out schoolhouse from patterned paper. 

Using Teresa Collins Foam Squares (in the kit) layer 

sticker over cut schoolhouse creating your own layered sticker. 

Apply glitter stickers inside card as shown. (Pink Paislee used). 

Trim out 2 pieces of patterned paper. 

The length of the pencil and 2- 2 1/2" with 

(if you make them just long enough they will come off so leave yourself extra rolling room)

Run the patterned paper strips though your 

 Xyron® 5" Creative Station™using the Permanent adhesive. 

Carefully roll paper around pencils. 

Using Blumenthal Lansing buttons- tie 2 owls to the pencil top with twine. 

Assemble card as directed in packaging. 

Apply paper ruler strips to card flaps after removing protective film. 

Tie twine through 2 of the owl buttons. 

Adhere to card using Teresa Collins Xyron®  Tape Runner. 

Adhere school house to one side of the card flaps. 

Give with a smile and a hug! 

Now how much fun are these little goodies?

Easy and adorable fun!

I hope you enjoyed today's post- I would love to see if you make a set!

~Sending You Courage~

Good morning crafty friends,

It's just me with a second post in a row! WOOT! LOL 

I have been busy creating and this is a fun vintage style project

I made this week using Clear Scraps  and a product

I had not tried before Glassine paper which is sort of like that brown wax

paper you might find at the butcher shops or delis in the 50's or 60's? 

It's not quite as waxy of course but if you crinkle it- it keeps the crinkle look

even when you smooth it out. Love that~ 

I used the beautiful Acrylic Half Scallop Send It Clear card plus

the beautiful COURAGE Expression from Clear Scraps- I love mixing

Clear Scraps acrylic with vintage style because it really adds a modern flair.

I also added vintage lace- just head over to VLVS and see just how this was created! :)
Happy Tuesday everyone!!!
