Hi there

Blog Buttons-006

Glad you can join us for another Creative Inkers Blog Hop.  This blog hop showcases products from the Sale-A-Bration brochure.  For every $110 NZD that you spend between now and 31 March 2015 your get to choose FREE product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure.

If you’ve been following the blog hop you will have come from Rachael Knight’s blog or you may have just joined my page.  If you get ‘lost’ there’s a list of all the blogs at the bottom of this post.  Now on with my project.

This first card is one I taught at my card class last week and uses four Sale-A-Bration products – Irresistably Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP), Big Day Stamp Set, Blendabilities and Best Year Ever Accessory Pack.

I love this DSP – it’s white glossy paper with different patterns that you can colour in a variety of techniques.  For these cards I’ve used ink and sponges but you could use daubers, a brayer or a spritzer to get different effects.  I sponged three colours on randomly then used a tissue to wipe away any excess ink.  It gives the effect of the emboss resist technique.  No two cards will be the same.

For the second card I still used sponges but applied the colours light to dark to light to give a blended look.  I’ve also used another of the patterns – quite a different look for this card.

I’m really loving this stamp set which comes with five stamps – it’s great for colouring in using the Blendabilites which are also a FREE product.  For the ‘Celebrate’ I restamped it on a scrap piece of card then hand cut it out, coloured it in with my Bendabilities then adhered it over the original image.  I did this on both cards.
Here’s a full list of the supplies I used:
Stamp Set – Big Day
Card Stock – Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral, Costal Cabana, Whisper White.  Naturals White, Rich Razzleberry
Ink/Blendabilities – Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana. Soft Sky, Pool Party, Lost Lagoon, Rich Razzleberry, Costal Cabana.  Momento Black
Other – Banner Framelits, Circle Framelits, 2″ Circle Punch, Best Year Ever Accessory Pack, Dimensionals

I hope you’ve enjoyed my creations.  Check back next Monday 26th January at the same time for our next blog hop which will showcase products from the Occasions Catalogue – now you’ll be heading to Sally Williams’ blog

    I love how you've coloured the sentiment on the first card all different colours – it looks fabulous. You've done a super job with your sponging.

    Wow! Love the bold colours, that really does make that paper pop! Great use of the stamp set to show very different cards Paula. My set of those stamps hasn't been mounted yet, yet alone see ink! Must rectify that!
