What Could Be Better Than Boba And A Field Of Flowers!

Hello Sparkle Blends Fans! I am Guest Designing at Sparkle Blends, so let's start out Monday with some sparkle.

Today I am playing with Spill The Bubble Tea. For this project I used a set from Hero Arts called Tulip Field HeroScape and Catherine Pooler Inks to create this beautiful field of flowers scene, and blending brushes to create my sky. For my Boba refreshment, I used Boba Shaker Combo Creative Cuts shaker die set from Mama Elephant. And my sentiment is stamped with Momento Tuxedo Black Ink and comes from the Mama Elephant Stamp Set called Boba Tea.

To see more of the Sparkle Blends May Release, and all the other mixes, take a look on the Doodles Paper Playground blog, Facebook page and in the Sparkle Blends Fan Club on Facebook.

So what do you think of this project? I really love how it came out and really appreciate the opportunity to Guest DT!

Thank You for stopping by and please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

How About An Elegant Monochrome Thank You!

Hi Everyone! So today I am a little out of my comfort zone. I am all about colors and sparkle and rainbows. But today I bring you a seriously elegant monochrome Thank You Card!
For this project I am using an A2 size card base cut and scored from CutCardstock Neenah Classic Crest Card Stock in Solar White 110# Cover. I used Pop Tone Black Licorice Card Stock with a cover plate die from Catherine Pooler called Garden's Edge Die and ran it through my die cutting machine. I then stamped the flowers onto a seperate piece of CutCardstock Neenah Classic Crest Card Stock in Solar White 110# Cover using VersaFine Onyx Black Pigment Ink For Fine Details and then coated with Gina K.Fine Detail Clear Embossing Powder and then used my heat tool to melt the embossing powder.

I then used the matching die and cut out the flower piece with my die cut machine. I then followed the same procedure for my sentiment, but I stamped directly on to my card base.

I then attached these layers using Scor-Tape. And for a final touch I added some pearls to a few spots, just for that added touch.

I do hope you have enjoyed this project and can't wait to see what you create!

Hugs,

Judy

So for your sparkly enjoyment I have created two projects for you with three of the new Sparkle Blends! The first of these projects features two of the new mixes called Orange Creamsicle and So Matcha Fun. For this project I used a set from Hero Arts called Color Layering Waves and Catherine Pooler Inks to create my ocean along with Distress Oxide Inks and blending brushes to create my sunset. For my adorable Boba buddies and their beverages I used an adorable new stamp and die set from Mama Elephant called Boba Tea. I colored up these cuties with Copics. And how adorable is this!

For my second project I am featuring Shake The Rainbow. If ever there was a Sparkle Blend made for me this would have to be it! So for this amazing blend I felt it only right to match it up with Unicorn Tales Stamp Set and After The Rain Die Set from Hellp Bluebird. For this I used a mixture of Catherine Pooler Inks and Copics to create the different elements of this card. And I wanted to allow my shaker elements to have a bigger space to play so some of my card elements are contained in the shaker space and the rest are in front, giving this more dimension.

So what do you think of these projects? I really love how they came out and really appreciate the opportunity to Guest DT!

Thank You for stopping by and please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

Now on to your next stop which is Gina!

For my project I am sharing with you easy DIY Wedding Invitations. This is an elegant invite that you can do fairly easily and can be mass produced. So let's get started.

I am using CutCardstock Neenah Classic Crest Card Stock in Solar White 110# Cover. Now I must say that this cardstock has impressed me so much that it has become my go to for card bases. It is really sturdy and is able to go through my laser printer, although I do the individual paper feed tray so that it has a flat path. I have cut my cardstock down to create an A2 size card base (4 1/4 x 5 1/2). I then have used the Trellis Cover Plate Die from Catherine Pooler and used another piece of the Neenah cardstock and ran it through my die cutting machine. I then added adhesive and adhered this to my card base.

Next, using Happy Butterflies Stamp set from Catherine Pooler I used my Misti and Versamark Ink and stamped out the butterfly images. I then coated the images with Holographic Embossing Powder from Ranger and used my heat tool for the embossing powder.

 

I then ran the butterflies through my die cutting machine using the matching die set. I used foam tape to adhere the butterflies to my card base.

Now, remember I told you I could run the Neenah through my laser printer? Well I actually used Microsoft Word and typed out the You're Invited, chose which font and what size I wanted for the front of my card and ran it through the laser printer. After that I cut it to the size I wanted and then used Silver Sequins Fancy Foils from Gina K and Thermo Web and ran it through my laminator. Then used a bit more foam tape to pop up the sentiment. And here you have it. I have tried to photograph it so that you can get an idea of all the sparkle on the butteerflies and from the sentiment.

And here is that hop list. Just cliick on the stop and it will take you right there.

• Crystal Schneider
• Melly Art
• Larissa Collins Pittman
• Queen B Invites n More

• Judy Markowitz YOU ARE HERE

I then added some black cardstock and then a white card base to finish up this project.
