Sorry Not Sorry

Happy January everyone - and that means it's Snarkfest over at So Suzy Stamps! I'm up on the blog today with a card perfect for those sorry not sorry moments...mwahahahaha!


It was time for some tone-on-tone stamping, so I inked up a bunch of my favorite So Suzy florals with Hero Arts Just Rust ink and went to town on a piece of Simon Says Stamp Burnt Orange cardstock.


Once dry, I added a highlight to prep for my heat embossing with Hero Arts Unicorn Ink, the best white ink I've found to date. It's a pigment ink, so blast it with your heat tool or walk away for an hour or so and let it dry. Once dry, it was ready for me to heat emboss the I'm Sorry stamp with my favorite Ranger Liquid Platinum powder. Of course, I had to do the inside, too...hehehehehehe...


Seriously, I laugh every time I see this. I stamped the 5-Year Old sentiment with Versafine Black and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder so it didn't smear on me. Some Carved Pumpkin for the edges and another hint of the leaves in the corners all on Neenah Solar White cardstock. All done and ready for Snarkfest!

Stamps used: Sorry, 5-Year Old, Peony, Leaf 1, Line Leaf 2, Herb 1, Petal Flower 3

Happy Crafting!

So Suzy Stamps June Blog Hop

Welcome back! This is my second post today featuring the kick-off of the June Challenge over at So Suzy Stamps. If you're looking for my new release post, scroll down! :)


You should be arriving from Justine's pretty blog - I always love seeing what she comes up with! As for me, I pulled out the new Congratulations! sentiment from the new June release and paired it with the lovely Peony and Leaf 1 stamps to make a CAS card perfect for wedding season:


I have to say, I love how elegant it turned out. I stamped the peonies in Hero Arts Bubble Gum and Red Royal, then fussy cut them out. The leaves were stamped in Hero Arts Green Hills and fussy cut as well. I played with where I wanted them on the card, then used foam tape on the peonies and just regular adhesive on the leaves to add depth. The sentiment was stamped with black VersaFine ink for a crisp finish, then all four corners of the card were rounded. For a final touch, I added a few 4mm clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh. Of course, then I realized it needed more shimmer, so out came my Wink of Stella!


Boom - shimmery flowers. Love.it. Now this card was done!
