Dream and Fears

Good evening crafty Friends,  I have some fun ATC's to share with you today using  stamps from

I used the fun Leave Your Fears & No Space For Dreams Sets today along with a Distress Ink Background. 

I started with a piece of watercolor paper and applied Picked Raspberry, Mermaid Lagoon & Fossilized Amber Distress Inks with a Mini Ranger Blending Tool. I then swiped a baby wipe thru the Joggles Punchinella Trio Stencil. Once dry, I used the blending tool and applied Seedless Preserves Distress Ink thru a Crafter's Workshop-  Sketch Grid Stencil and Black Soot thru the Crafter's Workshop- Mini Cubist Stencil for added dimension. I then cut my piece down to two pieces at 2.25'x3.25'. 

I stamped the Leave Your Fears image and Sentiment with Jet Black Archival Ink using my MISTI. 

I added some doodling with a White Signo Gel Pen and Nuvo Enamel Drops and finished by mounting the piece to black cardstock cut to regular ATC size of 2.5'x3.5'. 

I did the same with the Dreamcatcher and sentiment from the No Space for Dreams set. 

Seeing as I had my supplies out, I also made a tag using the silhouette stamp from the No Space for Dreams Set. 

I started with a tag cut from watercolor paper which I spritzed down with  water.  I then sprayed Dylusions Ink Sprays in Pure Sunshine, Post Box Red & Tangerine Dreams. I embossed the silhouette stamp with white detail embossing powder and stamped the sentiment with Jet Black Archival Ink.  I then added some background texture with the stiched stamp from 49 & Market- Gabi's Line Stitched set with Rhubarb Stalk Memento Ink. 

Here's a close up of the embossed silhouette which I think "POPS" from the watercolor like background. 

I sure I've inspired you to get INKY & CRAFTY today.

Two Paper Divas~ Dreamcatcher

Happy Friday Crafty Friends, I'm back to share with you an lil' make I made for

using April's newly released Feathers. As soon as I saw this set, I knew I would be making it into a Dreamcatcher and I'm loving how it turned out. 

 I used Distress Inks- Pickled Raspberry, Worn Lipstick and Abandoned Coral on Watercolor Cardstock for my background. Then used a Heidi Swapp Stencil with Seedless Preserves Distress Ink in the corners and finished with some water droplets.  

I stamped the leaves onto Watercolor Paper and used different Distress Inks and fussy cut them out. Love the vibrant colors. I used "Dream Big" from the Dream Big Set as I thought it was the perfect sentiment to go with my dreamcatcher. :o)

For the actual Dreamcatcher I die cut the circle using 2 different sized Circle dies and wrapped it with twine from my stash. I then embossed the feathers in white EP onto Vellum and attached to the back of the dreamcatcher. I love the white feathers in contrast to the vibrant colors I used on the card. Some enamel dots to portray beads on the dreamcatcher finish it off.

Here's the inside using the feathers again

I sure hope I've inspired you to DREAM BIG today and get crafty!
