PTI 2014 Stamp-a-Faire – Challenge #5 Antique Embossing

Challenge 5 tag

 

I was so looking forward to this challenge, being a huge Jane Austen fan, I was dying to jump into this one.

But I stuggled with the antique embossing on vellum.  I could not get an image when I embossed.  I finally decided to use cardstock instead ad it worked great.

I was not too sure when I started this but by the time I finished, I was loving it.   The colors and boldness, just love it!  Hope you do too!!!!

 

I lifted the card up with some foam tape so the velvet and the circle disks were flush with the card.

PTI 2014 Stamp-a-Faire – Challenge #2 Mock Mosaics

Challenge 2 Tag

 

I skipped over this one orginally, really did not like the card (sorry Lizzie) but once I went out and looked at the Pinterest photos, I thought the mosaics were more subtle and soft.  So this is what I created.

I made the coin by embossing a paper circle several times to get a thick layer and then laid the stamp into the embossing power when it was still hot and melted.   I also made a silver one but stuck with the gold coin.

This year my sister joined me as we stamped our hearts out and drank Champagne.   The schedule is brutal and I always think I will be able to do it, around half way thru I start to panic.  At least this year I ordered the kit.  SMART move on my behalf.  A must if you want to get thru this!!!   LOL

So to make it more special, I created a banner and special tote bags!!!!  AWESOME!!!!!

This was the final card I made!  This one I like.   The Creative Elixer (champage) was working well that night.   LOL

although it was hard to see, I kiss stamped some images.  But I think with the dark colors it is hard to see.

When-you-love

 

I took a matching Bazzill cardstock set that was on sale, sorry no colors were listed and used those Paper Smooches stamps that have been begging to be used from my stamp stash.   I used some ZING embossing powder, jewels and some glitter pens.   After I made the opening, I found that the stamp set from Papertrey called Meadow Green Stamp Set fit perfectly into the opening.   https://www.papertreyink.com/stamps/meadow-greens-stamp-set/

Thanks for looking, I appreciate the comments and LOVE!!!

I made this one late at night….

I had too much champagne…

I forced myself to keep going even though I did not like it…

I blame the champagne…..   Sometimes it is the Creative Elixer…..sometimes is just booze!!!   This time is was booze!  LOL

This was on day 6 of more outline stamps.   So I stamped a cat and used watercolors to create the grey tabby look.

The paper and embellishments was from Michaels {Recollections)

I used zebra striped jewels to look like spiders.   they look like blobs of glass with black marks on it.   ok, I think you get that I dont like this card.   But I do like the paper.

The stamp set was from Michaels, I think the Hampton Art ones they sell.  Not sure….don’t care.   LOL
