HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

Counting Down to 2022 with a Look Back at my FAVORITE Project from 2021 using Products from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps, plus a New Year's Card that I've created NEW for today to RING in the New YEAR!!
CHEERS to 2022!! 

I Started by Stamping and Embossing the Champagne Glass Image from the Pop, Fizz Clink Stamp Set onto White Cardstock using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! 

Then I Cut a Piece of Therm O Web Champagne Deco Foil and placed it over the Image and ran it through my Laminating Machine!!  

I removed the Deco Foil Sheet and SWOON!! I just LOVE the results of being able to Foil Stamped Images!!

I wanted to add some Splatters to the Reverse Deco Foil Sheet, so I added some Deco Foil Adhesive Pen to a Plastic Lid by pressing down on the Pen Nib until I had enough Deco Foil Adhesive in order to Splatter onto the Card Panel using a Paint Brush!! Then I Set the Card Panel aside to dry completely!! 

Once the Card Panel was dry completely I placed the Negative Foil Sheet over the Card Panel and rubbed with my finger over the Deco Foil Sheet in order to Foil the Splatters on the Card Panel!! Then I was left with the Negative Foil Splatters on the Negative Foil Sheet!! 

Such a NEAT Technique!! 

Next I cut a piece of Deco Foil Toner Sheet and placed the Negative Foil Sheet over the Deco Foil Toner Sheet and ran it through my Laminating Machine!! I LOVE the BOLD Champagne Flute Image along with the Splatters that POP off the Champagne Deco Foil!! I Stamped and Embossed the "Cheers" Sentiment and fussy cut the Sentiment out!! Then I added some Pink Glitter Cardstock Strips and some Black Cardstock Pinked Edge Strips Die Cut using the Pinked Slimline Die Set!! I adhered some Trinity Stamps Rainbow Reflection Flat Backed Rhinestone Mix!!
I LOVE the way it turned out!! 

Here's a look at the other Card that was created using the Positive Image!! For complete details on this Card you can find them HERE!! 

For my FAVORITE Card of 2021, I've chosen this "I Love You" Card using several different CAS-ual Fridays Products (Love Notes Stamps, Heart Note Dies) along with a WoW Embossing in Bright White using the Embossing Resist Technique!!
SWOON!! I LOVE EVERYTHING about this Card!! 

Here's a Close up of the Card and you can find ALL of the Details HERE!! 

Here's another Close Up look of this FUN Card!! 

So there you have it, a Look at the "Cheers" Card I've created for today to RING in the New Year and a Look Back at my FAVORITE Card I created in 2021 using CAS-ual Fridays Stamps!!

Pin It

Hello Crafty Friends!! 

HAPPY New Year!! 

I'm here for Day #2 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Release!! All of the NEW Products are available NOW in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Shop!! 

Today we're showcasing the NEW Salty Stamp Set & Margarita Glass Die Set!! I LOVE these Sets and ALL of the Possibilities!! Here's a look at the NEW Sets!! 

SUPER FUN Right!!?? I LOVE the Sentiments that are PERFECT for either the Outside or the Inside of your Cards!! Here's what I've created for today!!

I Started by Stamping and Embossing the Margarita Glass Image from the NEW Salty Stamp Set using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and WoW Embossing Powder in Clear Gloss!! 

I personally LOVE me a Blended Strawberry Margarita so that was the Look I was going for!! I Colored the Image with Copic Markers!! Margarita Glass: C00, C1 & C3   Blended Margarita: R000, R00, R11 & R32   Lime: G20, YG11 & YG17
Then I used the NEW Margarita Glass Die Set to Die Cut the Image out!! 

For my Background I Inked with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and just behind where the Margarita Glass was going to go!! I added some Water Splatters and some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters for some Texture!! Then I Masked off the Table with some Therm O Web Purple Tape and Inked with Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink!! 
I Stamped and Embossed the "Cheers" Sentiment from the NEW Pop Fizz Clink Stamp Set that was showcased yesterday here!! 

I wanted to add some Sparkle to my Card, so I added some SSS Unicorn Confetti Glitter after I applied some Therm O Web Ultra Bond Adhesive to each of the Sugar Cubes on the Edges of the Margarita Glass!! I LOVE the FUN and SPARKLE touch it adds to the Blended Strawberry Margarita Image!! 
I set it aside to dry and then I added some Tonic Studios Opal Quartz Shimmer Pen Splatters to the Background of the Card Panel!! I LOVE the Iridescent Shimmer and it coordinates well with the Iridescent Shimmer of the SSS Unicorn Confetti Glitter I added to the Sugar Cubes on the Edge of the Glass!! 
A few PPP Iridescent Jewels finishes off the Design of the Card Panel!! 

For the Inside of the Card I Inked with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink!! Then used my Static Tool to remove any Static and Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment from the NEW Salty Stamps Set with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossed with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! 
Then to coordinate with the Front of the Card I added both Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters and Opal Quartz Shimmer Pen Splatters!! I LOVE the way it finishes off the Card and that it coordinates with the front of the Card Panel!! I paired it with a Taylored Expressions Salt Water Taffy Envelope and its ready to send to a Dear Friend for her Birthday!! 

I LOVE the way it turned out and I hope it gives you some Ideas on ways to use the NEW Sets!!

CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Release ~ Pop Fizz Clink Stamps & Champagne Flute Dies!!

Pin It

Hello Crafty Friends!! 

I'm here for Day #1 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Release!! All of the NEW Products are available NOW in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Shop!! 

Today we're showcasing the NEW Pop Fizz Clink Stamp Set and Champagne Flute Dies!! I LOVE these Sets and ALL of the Possibilities!! Here's a look at the NEW Sets!!  

So FUN right!!?? 
Here's what I've created for today!!

I LOVE using Therm O Web Deco Foils on my Cards!! Especially for Special Occasion Cards!! Have you ever tried Foiling over your Stamped and Embossed Images!!??
Today I'm showing how you can add Deco Foils to your Stamped Images for a very Elegant Design!!

I Started by Stamping and Embossing the Champagne Flute Image from the NEW Pop Fizz Clink Stamp Set with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossing with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! Then I heat set it and then let it cool!! Then I used Copic Markers to Color in the Image!! I was going for a Light Champagne Color!! 

 I used Champagne: Y11 & Y21   Flute Glass: BG00, BG10

Then I Cut a Piece of Therm O Web Deco Foil in Champagne large enough to cover the Image and Ran it through my Laminating Machine on the #1 Setting!! You don't want it too hot when doing this Technique or it will distort the Image some!! Sometimes that's the look you want, but that wasn't the look I was going for on this Card!! 

SWOON!! I LOVE pulling back the Foil Sheet to reveal the Foiled Image!! It NEVER gets old!! PS Save that Negative Foil Piece as I'll be using it for another Card later in the weeks to come!! 😉 I LOVE being able to use ALL of the Foil so there's NO WASTE!! SQUEAL!! I can't wait to share it with you!! I Die Cut the Champagne Flute Image out using the coordinating NEW Champagne Flute Dies!! 

To create my Card Panel I Die Cut the Stitched Rectangle and then Inked the Background with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink!! I wanted to add some Text to the Background so I Stamped the Words "Fizz, Pop & Clink" using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink!! It's Subtle, but that's the look I was going for!! In real Life it really adds a neat touch to the Background!! 

I added some Water Splatters and then heat set it!! Then I took the NEW Bubbly Stencil with some Therm O Web Pixie Spray on the back to help keep it in place!! Then I adhered it over the Inked Background and applied more of the Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink!! I wanted a random design so I didn't cover the entire Stencil!! Just concentrated on the right hand side of the Card Panel!! 

I wanted to add some more Champagne Deco Foil to my Card, but didn't want it to take away from the Main Focal Image!! So I took the Deco Foil Adhesive Pen and pressed down the Tip of the Pen onto a Plastic Lid repeatedly until I got enough of the Adhesive out in order to Splatter onto my Card Panel with a Paint Brush!! I let it Dry completely!! 

Once it was Dry I took the Negative Foil Piece and rubbed it over the Splatters of Deco Foil Adhesive on my Card Panel!! SWOON!! I LOVE not on the extra touch of Shine, but the adhesive also dries with some Dimension, so it adds a FUN dimension to the Card too!! To finish the Card Panel I added some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters and I LOVE how it turned out!! 

I Stamped and Embossed the "Cheers" sentiment with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossed it with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! Then I Fussy Cut around the Sentiment!! I Adhered the Champagne Flute to my Card Panel with some Foam Tape and then I adhered the Sentiment also with Foam Tape just on the ends of the Sentiment to keep it the same dimension as the Champagne Flute!! I added a Few TE Gold Pearls to finish off the Design!!  

I LOVE the way it turned out and I hope it gives you some Ideas on ways to use the NEW Sets!!

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and I hope you'll stop back by tomorrow for a look at the NEW Salty Stamp Set & Margarita Glass Die Set!!
