Introducing the Clearsnap Color Pop Minis with Susan K Weckesser Co Branded Unity Stamps

                                                                     


Hi all Katie here xx

I have two exciting pieces of news to share the first being that i am returning to Susan's creative team and the second is a brand new product release designed for all those who love mixed media and colouring. The new inks once dry will take anything you throw at them inks, watercolours, paints the lot. The other thing you can do is stamp them onto smooth card and blend in the ink like watercolour inks. You can win a set by visiting Susan's blog here http://mysweetearth.blogspot.co.uk/2016/05/brand-new-color-pop-minis.html?m=1


                            There are 8 colors available which you can see below

I used the In Circle Me stamp set on the background and coloured the circles in with Prima Oil Pastels.

I used the A Little Bit Washi to create the ribbons and the Bunny Hugs stamp set for the bunny and sentiment. 

The Card was made using an A6 card blank which i stamped over using two colors of the Color  Pop Mini inks Fresh and Ice Blue. I used a water pen to blend the ink into the cards background.

All the ink colors can be mixed with water and used as a paint even the Shimmer ink with blend.

I colored the kite in using the Color Pop Minis inks which i dabbed onto an acrylic block and blended with a water pen.

I will be back later with a mini video 

Mixed Media: Angels are Near Layout

Hi all!, Katie here

I am up on the blog with a new mixed media layout to share. They say that if you find feathers in an unexpected place then it is your Guardian Angel trying to get your attention.I wanted to create a layout that was like a journal page so i sorted out a photo that was more suited for this style of project.

I used 

http://susankweckesser.com/product/circle/

https://www.unitystampco.com/shop/bunny-hugs/

I started off the page by applying DecoArt Media White Crackle Paint over the page using the DecoArt Americana Distressed Harlequin Stencil. I dabbed Chocolate ink over the top and then inked up the In Circle Me background stamp and stamped it around the edges and corners of the page.

I added paper layers which i cut out of the Dovecraft Value Range Vintage Rose pad. I used die-cuts and punches to create the shaped edges and layered them up with 3d Foam Tape.

I used the little heart stamp from the Bunny Hugs Stamp Set to decorate the mini banner. I then used the little star and stamped that around the page.

Use alphabet stamps to create long journal style titles

I finished the layout off with white feathers and embellishments.

Thank you for visiting

Love Family (You) Lay Out

Hi everyone!!

 Noe Here to show you my latest LO dedicated to my first son Hugo... I made this sweet and colorful LO using some Susan K.Weckesser products!

For my background I chose "Live, Love, Create"  paper that I've covered with gesso and some Distress Stain Inks ... Also, I stamped randomly "In circle Me" stamp to give some more texture!

Then I cut flowers from "Live in color" paper and placed several tags painted with some Mixed Media techniques. Finally I colored  "The happy homestead"  stamp and placed the picture with my son!

A piece of washi tape, ink splatters, a small banner with "love" sentiment and a little wood with  "family" world complete this LO.

Products used:
In Circle me stamp
The Happy Homestead stamp
Live in Color paper

Hi everyone!!

Noe here on one of my favorite months of the year, not only because it´s my birthday month, but because is the month of LOVE!!! And precisely that is theme of the month! Here is my card:

Love this new Susan K.Weckesser Set Stamp... It´s sooo cute and sweet!!

I made my background using other stamps sets from Susan, specifically "Love ya Whole Bunches" and "Grunge Fun" that I stamped on blue background... the frame is painted with a maroon ink and I added some details with the Doodle Stencil.

I show a close up of the card ... I have decided to use a Shaker format as they are much more fun and interactive!

She faced the world with a smile :)

Hi everyone!!!

Noe here to show you my newest project! As sure you know this month our theme is "Sharing Some Love" as we kick off the 2015 Christmas Love Campaign, and create something to gift someone. 


I love making cards and leave in them all kinds of positive messages so here is my first project for this month!

To make the background I used my distress inks, applying them  with my Blending Tool ... Then I sprayed water on  "In my circle" stamp and I have lobbied over my color background.

With a die I made a small banner, I put double-sided tape on the back and applied glitter on the front, pressing gently to glue it!

Finally I painted the beautiful girl stamp with my Spectrum Noir markers and contoured the card stamping  "She faced the world with a smile" feeling that I like so much !!!!

I hope you like this card... It´s very easy to make!!

Live in full color!

Hi everyone!!

Here Noe... How are you? I hope you had a fantastic entry into November month... I'll tell you a secret about me ... I love bright colors, convey me much joy ... So today I come with a notebook to write down all my thoughts , my projects and my memories ... A notebook that gives me, just looking, positive energy!

Another secret that I will tell you about me is that I love to do my own backgrounds for my projects, whether cards, LO's, mini albums, etc ... and this time would not be otherwise ... Let's do it!

The first step was to play with my inks and a roller to apply them on a piece of watercolor paper ... for this, I pulverized and mixed various inks and colors on an acetate sheet... Then, I inking my roller and applied it on paper.

I added textures with different embossing powders and some stamps on the sheet, without any order, leaving out creativity!

Finally, I cut sentiment of one of the fantastic papers designed for Susan, and I added them some relief outlining the contours with an embossing pen and gold embossing powders.

I had so much fun designing this project that I could not resist use my new notebook nothing more to finish !!

"Run for the Cure" - mixed media scrapbook page

Hello Friends! JJ here again. Today, I'm sharing a scrapbook layout featuring mixed media techniques:

After covering my background with gesso, I added border strips with Susan's stencil and some texture paste:

I added a little colour to the background with Inktense blocks and blended with gesso.  Then I added some stamping, including the banner from "Create Your Day", and some texture stamping with a stamp from the ABC.123.Washi set. 

I wanted a little more bright colour, so I spritzed some Dylusions spray through a Want 2 Scrap stencil.

You can also spot stamps from In-Circle-Me, and Insta-Cute in these detail shots.

Thank you for visiting!
