Love Ya Whole Bunches tag with Color Pop Mini Inks

Hi all

 I have a tag to share made using the Clearsnap Color Pop Mini inks.

I created the background by Mixing Sky and Night inks together and adding water so i could paint them onto the tag. Once dry i then applied gesso to the tag with a stencil.

I used the Love Ya Whole Bunches Stamp set ans used the color pop mini inks to color in the girl. I mixed the Snow and Kiss inks together to make a pink color, 

I took the MDF shape and painted gesso over it and then used a sponge to apply the Fresh Ink over it. I varied the strength of the color to create a faded effect.

I then use the A Little Bit Washi stamp set with Night and Fresh ink and stamped onto white tissue paper before layering them over each other like a collage.

She Faced the World With A Smile - A Card By Lynne Mizera

Happy September 1st to all you wonderful and creative followers. September? Now how did that happen?  I know I am not the only one who has been broadsided by just how fast the year 2016 is flying by, but HOW did it get to be September already?!  Today I am honoured to be the Susan K. Weckesser creative team member here at the My Sweet Earth blog who is introducing our September theme of "You Are My Friend". 

All of September the creative team will be showcasing cards about friendship, family and love, because:

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." Helen Keller

 Here is the card I created:

I had so much fun creating this card using Susan's "Love Ya Whole Bunches" stamp set... and here is how I did it!

I stamped my image three times using Ranger Archival waterproof ink.  I always give myself three images so that way I feel like have lots of room for color choices and any little mistakes. I used my Angora watercolors and a water brush to fill in the color...

And then I went back in with my gel pens to add details to her eyes, dress and flower and I used colored pencils to give her hair some texture.

Here she is really close Close-up so you can see all the wonderful details... 

The sun and cloud and bird are from Susan's "Create Your Day" Unity stamp set and the wonderful flowers by her feet (which I filled in with gel pens and stickles) are from the Unity Stamp set "Journal Doodles With A Heart". A bit of fibre, some foam pop dots and few more gel pen details and it was done!

I am taking the time this month to make a few cards for those people who make my life richer and then I am making sure they know that!  Because even though I know I think of them often I want to make sure that they know how much they bring to my world. Alfred Tennyson said it so beautifully when he wrote:

 "If I had a flower for every time I thought of you... I could walk through my garden forever."

Thank you for making my world such a beautiful garden to walk through Ms. Susan K. Weckesser!

Hi everyone!!

Here Noe to show you my newest project using Susan´s products... As you know,  this month our theme is "Mix Media"... one of my favourites themes together Cardmaking... I LOVE them !! .. So I did a combination of both in this project:

I have also used different bases and textures ... cardboard ... paper with black velvet ...  embossing resist with watercolors and finally Canvas Pennant painted with Gelatos and stamped with Susan´s stamps, specifically with "Grunge Fun", "In my Garden" and "Love ya whole bunches".

Girl was painted with my watercolors brushes from Kuretake and I added this heart on which I glued microbeads and glitter. 

In the background in which I used embossing resist technique I stamped sentiments from "Love ya bunches whole" stamp set and then erased slightly with a help from a wet wipe for babies.

Hope you like it!!

Happy crafting!!

Love Ya!

Hello crafty friends. I hope where ever you are the sun is shining and the birds are singing.

I love giving away cards I have made not just on days like birthdays but ordinary and quite random days. It's always nice to receive a surprise right? So here's a card I made . . . not sure who the recipient will be yet!

This card was my first time using this sweet girlie stamp. She was so lovely to colour in and to give this dreamy world to.

I began with a piece of 5in x 5in kraft card and painted the central area with gesso. Using the gesso keeps the colours bright. I experimented with a colour combination I hadn't used before. I think the coral and minty green worked well together. I then softened them by dry brushing some gesso over the top and then some painty splats and some stenciled dots. I love dots!!!

I drew the scallopy ground for her to stand on on an old book page and coloured using Brushed Corduroy distress ink. I stamped the clouds and coloured the same way. The girl was stamped on white card and coloured with Prismacolour pencils as were the flowers. A little bow and some paper flowers with pearly centers and faux stitching finished the card. I then glued it on to a white blank card of the same size. I got so lost in the process of this card I completely forgot about taking photos as I went a long which just shows I had lots of fun!!

Love Ya Whole Bunches can be found right here and is shown below:

The clouds and flowers are from the Create Your Day stamp set which can be found right here and is shown below:

I do hope you like my card and that I've inspired you a little.
Wishing you a lovely day.

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!

Tags of Love: Love ya whole bunches tag

Hi all 

Katie here, I am back with a mixed media tag to share. I am new at tag making but i like to learn new things so i gave it a go.

I used the Love Ya Whole Bunches stamp set for this project 

http://susankweckesser.com/product/love-ya-whole-bunches/

I used the Love Ya Whole Bunches set for this tag and started off by stamping the girl out and colouring her in. I set her to one side and began on the tag background by spritzing  Paris pink and vintage sepia inks onto a white tag.

              I then used texture stamps from the A Little bit washi set to make a pattern.

I then used the kite stamp from the Fly Away set and stamped the tail of the kite onto the tag. I then stamped the kite out onto card and cut it out and stuck it to the tag with 3d foam pads.

Isn't she adorable?

Thank you for visiting

For January

Amazingly Loving Tags

 Happy Monday! Peggy here to show you my tags made with Susan K Weckesser stamps. 

I love teal....  Susan's stamps are so cute and can be used in so many different ways.  I made some tags with background stamps and ephemera paper (thank you Lynne Mizera)   Grin.. 

I used Journal Doodles with a Heart stamps set and Love Ya Whole Bunches and Live Love Create paper. I stamped my images with Memento Black Ink to ensure they wouldn't smudge when coloring with alcohol markers. I cut out all images and mounted them on my background tags using foam dots and double sided tape. 

 Metal embellishments, Wooden embellies, Inks and Stamps. What more could a girl want. 

Tags are so much fun and inspirational. I love to hang them on my walls but usually give them away. 

Stamps and Paper used today are supplied by Susan K Weckesser Inc. You can find her on Facebook, Google+, Pinterest , Twitter and her Blog!

Have a great day!!

Warmly, 

Peggy Oliver
