Hi and welcome to a post to announce the start of a brand new challenge over at ATSM. Here is my card for your inspiration. Some of you may recognise this as a CASE of this card here. It's also on my side bar as one of my most popular posts! I'm not sure why it rates so highly but it was over 3 years since I made the original and I thought it was time to revisit it. As it is the photo inspiration week at ATSM, my starting point as the word SMILE in this phrase. You could of course use a phrase as your focus or perhaps a watercolour wash or even the pink and black colour scheme, the interpretation is all yours. I kept with the colours of autumn of the original, but went for a more pumpkin coloured background such as in the Time Out photo. I started by cutting a mask from Post it paper then positioned it on the front of a base card. Using a small Versamark pad and a pen, I inked up the card through the stencil. Carefully removing the mask, I embossed the detail with gold EP. When completely dry, I used another homemade stencil mask to create the 3 circles of colour. The sentiment from STAMPlorations was then stamped in brown and embossed with clear matt EP. Apologies for the awful photo but the weather was so bad and dark even at midday when I took the photo, at least the gold embossing showed up in the flash! So more more inspiring interpretations of the photo, check out the rest of the team here. Joining in over at:- I was inspired by the orange pumpkins and twigs contrasting with the white background

Hello Ai fans! Today I'm sharing an image called Yoga Yolanda! Each year at Makena's dance studio I make the cards for the competitive dance team to give to the teachers. This card went to Syndey who teaches a core/strength/stretching class. 4209 – Yoga Yolanda Set The teacher is a young, very fit woman so she doesn't exactly resemble Yolanda in looks but they share the same fondness for junk food! Here you can see a little better that she's on a clear acetate background. I just thought that would be fun. LinkDeli.com Copics used: BG01, YG61, R22, C0, T1, E00, E02, E57, E93, E97 TriArt: R-11
PLEASE NOTE MOST OF THIS IS FROM 2015 and the photos are pants! I am going to redo the technique and update with a new video and walk through showing how to apply shadows for a 3D effect. We have updated the technique and Emma did a YouTube video in 2017 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3wE_FQ1ycs If you found inspiration from our technique or video please don't forget to credit or mention Inkylicious. 2015: Apologies to all who have been waiting for this .... A quick walk through on creating the parchment effect as shown on our TV show. Whether you have purchased one of our 'Winter Bauble Kits' or the goodies separately here's how to create them. What I've used: Inkylicious Winter Cabin or Winter Lodge stamp Bauble Stencil (or shaped stencil that can fit your stamp inside) We now use: Brilliance White Ink Pad Ink Duster or blending brush Sakura White Pen (this is water based so we can blend the colour out) Memento Rich Cocoa (for stamping the image) Low Tack Stencil Tape (to hold the stencil down) Quickie Glue Pen (great for detailed glittering) Inkylicious Iridescent Glitterz (for added sparkle) Medium Waterbrush or paintbrush) In the 'Winter Cabin Bauble Kit' : A6 Bauble Stencil Winter Cabin Stamp Dew Drop White Ink Pad Sakura White Pen Fluffy Puffy Stuff 5 Sheets A5 Stamping Kraft Card In the 'Winter Lodge Bauble Kit' : 6" Bauble Stencil Winter Lodge Stamp Brilliance White Ink Pad Sakura White Pen Sakura Stardust Clear Pen Quickie Glue Pen Inkylicious Iridescent Glitterz 5 Sheets A4 Stamping Kraft Card So here's the products I'm using Step 1: Using Low Tack Tape, tape the stencil on to the Stamping Kraft Card, Hint: I wrap the tape under one side as a hinge so I can lift the other side and check the depth of colour. Apply the ink around the edges of the stencil on to the Kraft Card - remember the Brilliance white ink is very thick and opaque so you only need a little ! Lift the stencil on the unhinged side if you wish to check the depth. Step 2: With the stencil still in place use the Sakura White Pen to draw an outline around the inner of the stencil. Hint: To quickly get the ink flowing to the nib - hold the pen with the nib at the bottom and flick the pen like a thermometer. You can lift the stencil on the unhinged side if you need to check the line to see if you have missed any. Step 3: Line completed - ready for stamping. Step 4: Now you can, if you wish, stamp the image with the Brilliance White Ink Pad (I'll show you that in the gallery this weekend) whatever you do - don't stamp in a Black ink - you are trying to create a nice parchment effect and black is way too harsh ... we like to use the Memento Rich Cocoa so we can then add white highlights with the Sakura Pen. Step 5: Using the Sakura white pen, colour the parts of the image where snow may naturally lay such as the fence, branches and yes the roof! Use the white pen to scribble a heavy line of white around the lower edge of the roof, then using a waterbrush (paint brush and water if not) blend the white line out to the top of the roof, blast with a heat gun to quickly dry. Add more white around the edge of the roof for more definition. Almost Finished .... So here's mine coloured in with the Sakura White Pen. Did you remember to colour the chimney pot and add some white smoke? I've also added snowfall dots. Time for some Sparkle ! Use a quickie glue pen and glitter to add some sparkle. So this is just a very quickie walk through for you. I'll get a video done this weekend and also a gallery of lots of different ones using same baubles but different stamps, same stamps but other stencil shapes and I'll also show you how to tint the white to give even more effects. These two below are from 2021.

Welcome back for another look at more projects with my latest from Papertrey Ink! Thank you all so much for all your sweet comments on the Papertrey Ink blog! Reading your positive words and excitement about Sending You Comfort, means the world! I am also happy to know that what I am needing for my own card-making is exactly what you are searching for as well! I could just hug you all! Once again on this card, I used the lined leaf image. Its my favorite. :D I embossed the image with gold powder. This can be a little tricky on dark cardstock. The key is using an embossing pouch of some kind before stamping. By applying a powder-filled pouch to the surface of your cardstock, it helps eliminate stray embossing powder from places you do not want it. They are reasonably priced and never go bad. You can't say that for very many supplies! Links to one are down below at the bottom of my post. All the images were stamped before I applied the embossing powder as well. When you use a watermark or embossing ink pad, the medium stays wet for quite some time, allowing you the chance to work. And on dark cardstock like this, you can easily see where you have stamped previously. Along with the sentiment and leaves from Sending You Comfort, I mixed in my stamp set released in the summer, Bold Basics. This diamond image from Bold Basics works with just about any image from any set! It is clean, modern, classy, and highlights your words beautifully. Oh, look, more of the leaf image. I told you, I can't get enough of it! :D This time I stamped it and covered it with Perfect Pearls. The shimmer on the dark cardstock is elegant. On this card, you can also see the sentiment with "our" in it. So many of you requested having sentiments with "we" and "our" to add to your collection. I am thrilled reading your comments about how you love that feature! The leaves were stamped with Perfect Medium (it grabs the Perfect Pearls so much better than any other ink, in my experience) on a panel of cardstock. That way, if I did mess it up, I didn't ruin the entire card. Anyone else have those fears? A thin strip of copper cardstock was added along the edge to bring out the shine. Its tough to photograph the shine well, especially with waning sunlight...so, I am planning on sharing this card with a video on Instagram, in my stories. Pop on over and visit me! @kimberlystamps.
