Altenew | Refresh Your Watercolor Brush Markers Blog Hop + Giveaway

Welcome to the Altenew Refresh Your Watercolor Brush Markers Blog Hop.  The new Brush Marker Refills are here and they are awesome for so many techniques but even to just keep those brush markers juicy.  The refills are so easy to use to get those markers back to full.

I created a super simple card using the new refills for the Tropical Fiesta Brush Markers.  I stamped and heat embossed an adorable image from the Ruffled Flowers set.  I added a little color from the brushes along with a little water to fill the spaces of the flowers and leaves. 

I die cut the flowers with the coordinating die and then also cut out a piece of fun foam.  I lined the back of the flower image with the fun foam and added it to the card front for a perfect dimensional flower.  I stamped a sentiment from the set in Obsidian Black Ink.  To finish off the card, I added in a few clear drops.  Super clean and simple!

Stamptember {Concord and 9th}...

Hello crafty friends!  The next stamp available for Stamptember is this amazing Turnabout from Concord and 9th.  It is absolutely adorable and so easy to stamp!

I used bright colors for the stamped images.  These turnabouts are so fun to use.  You put them in your Misti and then turn them each time with a new color.  This one creates such a fun quilted look. 

 

I added in a stitched rectangle die with the heart and sentiment both from the set.  I love that there are things that work so well together all in one set!

Thanks for coming by today.  Hope you have a great day!

MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge...

Hey friends!  It's time for the Wednesday Sketch over at My Favorite Things!  I love this weeks sketch.  There are SO many possibilities!

To create this card, I used the Mini Cloud Stencil and created 4 lines of clouds.  I cut them out in 3/4" strips and added them to the card front with foam tape.  Last, I stamped the sentiment and added in the tiny heart.  I use those little hearts a lot!  I just love that die from the Tag Builder Blueprints.

Here is this week's sketch....

Thanks for coming by today!

Happy Birthday {Simon Says Stamptember}...

Hey friends!  Stopping in with a quick and simple card using the new set called Critter Crowd from Simon Says Stamp.  This set is one of may of the new amazing sets for Stamptember.  

To create this card, I stamped and colored those adorable little critters with Copics.  I die cut the image with the coordinating dies.  

I stamped Happy Birthday and the "from all of us" on the card front along with the balloon.  I colored up the ballon with a red copics and then added some Journey Glaze on top.  Last, I popped up the critter image on the front with foam tape.  I cut the card front down and added it to a white card base with fun foam to finish of the card.
