Hello there friends! It’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you and I have a mixed media tag project to share! I love the Bold Botanicals from Tim Holtz and I wanted to use them all so I stamped and watercolored them on a large Etcetera Tag. I also added details with Tim’s Brush Mark stencil and Floral Trims stamp set. The butterflies are from Tim’s Brushstroke Butterflies die set. Pairing all these products together along with paints, pastes, and more, I created a dramatic art piece that I am excited to hang on my studio wall! Want to learn more about how I made this project?

Hi friends, it’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you! Today I am featuring our new Celebrate collection and will be showing you how to use some of the products together to make 2 different cards! I wanted to create a background with our Diamond Circles Foil Transfer Cards, so I foiled the paper with some Silver Sketch foil. I used the leftover negative foil with one of our Color Blend cardstock sheets to transfer the pattern onto that paper for a second background. To step those backgrounds up even more, I also embossed them after foiling and that added some cool texture on top—the folder I use ..read more

Hello, all! Kristina here! Today I have a fun card created with the Celestial Wishes stamp set included in the May 2024 Card Kit. There are lots of great images and greetings in the stamp set, but I was drawn to the solid circle image, which I think was intended to be a sun. Instead, I stamped the circle as balloons and then watercolored them! I used Pawsitively Saturated inks for the balloons because the ink reacts with water. The inks are great for watercoloring! I used Taffy, Lemonade, Iris, Cadette, Tropic, and Sherbet–a great rainbow of colors! To finish off the card, I ..read more
