Cue the Fireworks!

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end and so must this incredibly creative collaboration between the design teams for Stampendous and Dreamweaver.

What a fun and inspiring week this Blog Hop has been. I, for one, was in awe each day as I hopped from blog to blog.

This card was a lot of fun to make because, again, it used a lot of techniques, which I LOVE!

Dreamweaver Stencils: LX7001 Large Damask, Amber Glow Metallic F/X'
Embossing Paste: Black Matte and Crackle;
Stampendous: Phone Lady and Phone Gent stamps
Aged Ivory Embossing Enamel and Chiffon Color Fragments

1. First paste emboss the LX7001 Large Damask with black matte paste and set aside to dry. (20 minutes on warm heat on my pancake griddle!)

2. Overpaste with Crackle paste  and set aside to dry. (Crackle takes a little longer so plan on 30 minutes!)

3. Reposition stencil over cured paste and dab with Stewart Stamp n Stick Glue pad. Remove stencil and heat until tacky (about 10-15 seconds). Brush with Amber Glow Metallix F/X. Trim to 2" squares.

4. Stamp and emboss both images with black embossing paste onto copper card squares.

5. Machine emboss Black Magic cardstock with Damask stencil, sand to reveal ivory interior.

6. Using a Versamark marker, edge with embossing ink and sprinkle with Embossing Enamel. While heating from the backside, sprinkle some fragments into embossing powder to secure.

7. Layer as shown. Pretty easy. Lots of fun.

Leave me some love so you can be entered to win some great product and then head on over to the rest of the Design Team blogs. Everyone's participating, so grab a coffee and be ready to be WOW-ed! I know I will be.




I've had a lot of fun this week and hope you've had fun and found some inspiration as well!

Have a great weekend, see you next weekend!

Another "Dreampendous" Creation

Welcome to the THIRD DAY of the Dreamweaver/Stampendous Blog Hop! I hope you've been enjoying this as much as I have.

All of this week the Dreamweaver Stencils' Dream Team and the Stampendous Design Teams will be providing some "Dream-pendous" inspiration for you, with multiple opportunities to win some fabulous prizes from both companies.

Each day this week, you will be directed from both the Stampendous Impressions' blog or the Dream It Up! blog to the players du jour for your oohing and aaahing pleasure. Everyone will be playing on Saturday, the 14th with our final hop for the week. This is your opportunity to see how to mix and mingle your creativity...if you are a stenciler, you will be fascinated at combining stamps with your first love. If you are a stamper, you will be wowed at how stencils can add to your impressions.




This card was a lot of fun to make and surprisingly it went together fairly quickly. Here's a quick summary:

1. Using Dreamweaver's LJ820 Floral Lace and the double-glitter technique, create the glitter lace piece.

2. Using the same stencil, machine emboss onto vanilla cardstock and ink with Victorian Velvet Distress sink

3. Using Dreamweaver's LJ836 Doily stencil, tap Versamark ink over the stencil openings. Remove stencil and sprinkle and heat emboss with Stampendous Aged Ivory Embossing Enamel. Cut out with Oval Die.

4. Stamp NEW Stampendous Phone Lady CRV263 with Black ink onto Mauve cardstock. Cut out with oval die.

The rest is just laying and embellishing. Pretty straightforward.

I'll be back Wednesday with yet another creation for this fun blog hop! Hope you'll stop by and say hi!
Dreamweaver LJ882 Diamond Grid stencil with Black Matte Paste
Stampendous NEW Phone Gent Cling Stamp CRV264
and Frantage Vintage Glitter

Stamp Phone Gent with Black Ink onto white cardstock; heat set.
Using a small Versamark pad, ink edges of white cardstock and sprinkle on silver embossing powder (DO NOT HEAT, YET!); sprinkle over the embossing powder Silver Vintage Glitter. NOW heat from behind until the embossing powder melts and incorporates the Vintage Glitter into it.
Layer onto black cardstock and red mat.

Using REMOVABLE TAPE (Scotch brand works the best); adhere LJ882 Diamond Grid stencil over red cardstock. Completely tape around all four sides of the stencil. Using Dreamweaver's Paste Spreader and Black Matte paste, pull a light layer of stencil paste over the stencil (NOTE: let gravity do most of the work don't push or press with the spreader or you'll end up pushing paste under the fine bridgework of the stencil.). Set aside to dry (or use a griddle on WARM heat).

Once dry, trim to desired size and layer onto white cardstock.

Cardstock is Coredinations Vintage from my "stash" as is the button.

CAS but I think really emphasizes this fun new stamp from Stampendous!
