Crazy Crafters Blog Hop: Guest Stamper-Me!

Wow! Kylie Bertucci, the #1 Stampin' Up! demonstrator in Australia, hosts many blog hops every month. And one of the types of blog hops she does is to choose a special guest and CAS their work. And Kylie asked me to be a special guest 😀 I am so very honored, and was thrilled to say yes! I can't wait to see which projects everyone picks, and how they use them as a jumping point for their own amazing creativity!

Heat embossed feathers on watercolor paper, sponged then spritzed with 3 inks.

I was in a watercolor mood, so I decided to use this card from 2015 for inspiration. I used Four Feathers with Lost Lagoon, Pool Party, and Smoky Slate ink.

Stampin' Up!'s Fabulous Flamingo has more than big pink birds to play with! These leaves are Clear heat embossed on watercolor paper, then an Aqua-painter is used to apply Soft Sky, Bermuda Bay, and Emerald Envy. After the panel is dry, a damp cloth is wiped over the embossing to remove extra ink.- Tanya Boser

For my new card, I used the Fabulous Flamingo stamp set with Emerald Envy, Bermuda Bay, and Pool Party ink. It was still done with emboss resist on watercolor paper. But for this one I applied the ink with an Aqua-painter instead of sponging then spritzing.

Here is the inside with some simple stamping. The sentiment is stamped in black and the leaves are stamped-off Emerald Envy.

Stamping Sunday Blog Hop - Embossing Paste

Wow, I sure am hopping a lot this week! Blog hopping that is 😁 Sara Levin invited me to be a Guest Blogger on the Stamping Sunday hop this week. What an honor! And we are featuring Embossing Paste this time. That made me very excited, because that is right up my alley! I love embossing paste, and have almost used up an entire jar already 😂

My first go at Embossing Paste for this hop was this collection of cards I used for a swap. I used several different wood grains from the Wood Textures DSP stack. I love them ALL!💖

Here is the very first one I made.

Who doesn't love a video?! I hope this video is helpful for you. I am showing how easy it is to use the Embossing Paste on patterned paper.

My second project takes this a step farther. I call this Gilded Embossing Paste. You just sprinkle on some embossing powder after you remove the mask. Let the paste dry for 15 minutes or so, then set the embossing powder with the Heat Tool. This time I used the Color Theory DSP stack.

That's it for me! I have added a clickable list for anyone in the US to go shopping with me. And the blog roll is here so you can continue on the hop!
