May Essentials by Ellen Pin-Sights Challenge Guest Designer!! =)

Pin It



Hello!!
I'm here to share the New May Essentials by Ellen Pin-Sights Challenge as a Guest Designer!! SQUEAL!! You have NO IDEA how EXCITED I was when Laurel Beard emailed and asked me to Join them clear back in March!! It ALWAYS AMAZES me just how MUCH Planning, Work and Effort goes into Hosting these Challenges each Month so I just wanted to give Laurel and Ellen Hutson a HUGE THANK YOU for ALL of the Hard Work, the Guest Designer Invitation and the chances to WIN!! It MEANS ALOT!! =) I'm SO EXCITED to share my Card with you today and I'll have a couple more to share as the Challenge goes on!! =) So I was INSPIRED by the Flowers and the Color of the Lipstick (??) Quote that says "She LOVED Life and it LOVED her Right Back"!! That's also how I came up with the Sentiment I used for my Card!!

I've used Essentials by Ellen Vellum for my Card today and instead of Stamping and Embossing the Flowers onto it, I used the Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps, Bohemian Garden by Julie Ebersole and the Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps, Thankful by Julie Ebersole  to Trace my Floral Bouquet Design and then Debossed the Design into the Vellum!! You have to be some what careful not to Puncture through he Vellum when doing this Technique, but in REAL Life it is SO WORTH the results!! =) I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the look and that I can get MORE use out of my Clear Stamps!! SQUEAL!! =) I recently took the Clear and Sheer Class from Online Card Classes and that is where I got my Inspiration for this Technique!!

I used my Zig Clear Color Real Brush Markers to Watercolor on the Backside of the Vellum!! You could use Copic Markers or your Alcohol Inks too!! I really like the look and the results I got using the Zig Clear Color Real Brush Markers though!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment from the Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps, Fancy Thanks by Julie Ebersole using WoW Super Fine Embossing Powder over VersaFine Black Onyx Ink and then Die Cut the Essentials by Ellen Designer Dies, Totally Fabulous by Julie Ebersole from some Black Cardstock and again from some Black Adhesive Fun Foam!! I adhered them together and adhered it to my Card Front!! A few Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh finishes of my Card!! 

I hope you JOIN in on the FUN over on the Ellen Hutson Classroom Blog for a chance to WIN a $50.00 Gift Certificate to the Ellen Hutson Store!! SQUEAL!! =)
