Hugs: Memory Box

Hello everyone! I am sharing a mixed media card with you today. I am loving the tall format of the cards these days and the fun, soft colors of Shimmerz :)

I decided to use some pretty colors create my card, Creameez: Pining For You; Shimmerz: Coal, Buddy's Favourite Color; Inklingz: Miner Miner 49er, Coral Reef; Paste-Eez: Salt of the Earth

I started by creating a card base. I then add a bit of coral color to the edges. Let dry.

I then cut a mat layer, added some colors to it, let dry. I mixed some coral reef, and gold to the paste-eez and applied this through a stencil. I then die-cut the twigs and applied some color to it.

Once everything was dry, I assembled the cluster.

To finish, I added a few clear gems. I really love the shine of the mix of various paints.

Here are the products I used:
Creameez: Pining For You

Shimmerz: Coal, Buddy's Favourite Color

Inklingz: Miner Miner 49er, Coral Reef

Paste-Eez: Salt of the Earth

Heffy Doodle Release 6 Blog Hop

Hello and welcome! I am so excited to celebrate our Heffy Doodle Release 6 blog hop. You are going to love this release as it has lots of awesome stamps, dies and stencils!

You should've come here from the very talented Jessica's blog.

It was so difficult to stop creating using the new products, I will be sharing a few of them in coming days. For today, I have a card and a couple of tags for you.

For my card, I used the Big Bug Hugs clear stamp along with the Big Bug Hugs Dies, Grassy Lass Border, Imperial Stitched Rectangle and Swirly Cloud dies!

I started by creating the background wash using distress inks. I then stamped the images and colored them using Derwent inktense pencils.

Now I fussy cut the images.

I then die-cut the clouds and the grassy border. Sponged some distress inks to the grass and stamped the sentiment onto it. Finally assembled everything together.

The Tag Along dies along with the word dies made creating these Tags so easy and FUN!!!

For the first tag, I used the Tag Along dies, My Hero Word Dies, Bots of Love dies and Bots of Love Stamp.

I simply die-cut the base and the frame of the tag. Adhered a piece of acetate behind the frame. I then sponged some distress inks to the back piece and adhered the confetti stars.I then stamped the Robo image, colored it and die-cut it. I adhered it to the tag base.

I then die-cut the word "My Hero", sponged some distress inks to it to create ombre effect and adhered it to the tag frame piece.

For the next tag, I simply added the word "FRIEND" to the frame and stamped the sentiment from the Whatcha Saying Now Stamp set.

It's a hop and there is a prize...YAY!!!!
A random winner will be selected for a £50 gift certificate to the Heffy Doodle store. To be eligible, leave comments across the entire blog hop by 11:59 PM EST on February 18th 2019. Winners will be announced on the Heffy Doodle Blog on 20th February 2019.

The Ton's 4th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 4

Hello and Welcome everyone! Happy New Year, I hope you had a wonderful time with your friends and family.

Today, I'm super excited to be celebrating THE TON'S 4th Anniversary by joining the mini hop Day 4! The Ton is celebrating 4 years this month and Effie has introduced 9 new designs for this release. There are some free gifts with purchase promotions ongoing. Head over to The Ton Stamps' blog for more details.
Here are my cards featuring the new Smiling Cosmos stamp set. This is such a pretty bouquet stamp!!
For my first card, I went for the abstract, loose watercolor look. I am really happy with how it turned out. Sure this gave me a smile on my face, hope it gives you one too :)

Now, for my 2nd. card, I loved the delicate lines of this stamp, so it was perfect to use it on vellum. I created a base blue alcohol ink background on vellum. I then stamped and embossed the image on another piece of vellum, colored it using prismacolor pencils. Fussy cut the image and adhered it onto the background.

GIVEAWAYS:
There are also giveaways everyday on these mini hops! Win a stamp of choice from The Ton's new release. To enter, leave a comment on each blog each day.

For my first card I used the Delicate Primrose stamp set along with the Delicate Primrose dies, Verdant Walk Paper pad, sentiment from the Ruffled Flowers, frame die from the New Day Card Kit and the Snowing stamp.

For my 2nd. card, I used the same Delicate Primrose stamp set but only used the last layer to create this abstract look and watercolors. I also used the Label Love stamp set for the sentiment. I just love love the effect on this one.

or my 3rd. card I went for a mixed media look. I used another new stamp Ruffled Flowers and the Ruffled Flowers dies along with the Celestial Paper Pack and the sentiment is from Wispy Begonia stamp set.

Hope you still are enjoying the release...I couldn't stop creating. For the next card, I used the same Ruffled Flowers stamp set embossed using the Rose Gold embossing powder onto a black cardstock and this time, I colored the images using Caran D'Ache gouache paints.

I was having so much fun and the products are so versatile, I decided to make a TN page instead of a card. My starting point was this GORGEOUS mega Love die, Mega Greetings 3 stamps and the Bed of Roses stamps :) I also used the leaves from the Delicate Primrose stamp set with the Delicate Primrose die. Other than these, I used the Celestial Paper Pack, hearts from the Love Letters stamp set.
