Finding Inspiration in Previous Projects with Daria Grushina [Part 2]

 Hello dear Friends! 

Daria here. To continue my thought on finding inspiration from previous projects, I wanted to share one more card. It uses the same supplies:  Grateful Heart stamp set with coordinating dies, patterned paper, gold embossing powder and a few gold sequins. 

The only thing I've added is die-cut letters for the sentiment. 

I think, this card has the same feel as a previous one. At the same time, it is different: design, scheme, colours. It is more monochromatic with just a touch of color behind the letters. 

I again started with heat embossing beautiful flower cluster from Grateful Heart stamp set in Gold embossing powder. Die cut it and foam mounted over a patterned panel from Modern Graphics paper pack from Julie Ebersole. 

Then, I've added die-cut letters for the sentiment in gold glitter paper along with a little pink behind. They were made using Classic Block Alpha by Ellen Hutson. But you may use any letters you have on hand. 

Gold sequins add that extra shine and movement to the card. 

Can you tell me, which of the three cards made as an inspiration from one another you liked the most? Or may be you also have a similar creative process?

Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time,

xoxo,

D.

Finding Inspiration in Previous Projects with Daria Grushina

Hello-hello awesome people,

Daria here. It is been a while.  At my previous post, I've shared with you this card. 

It was a super simple and fast to make project.  While writing about this card, I also got an idea of another card, using photos of the project as an inspiration. To say the truth, it happens with me a lot. I start to make something and wile making a card I've often got a completely different idea in the process or afterwards. Does it happen with you too?

So today, I am again going to share a card with  Grateful Heart stamp set. I started with heat embossing beautiful flower cluster from Grateful Heart stamp set in Gold embossing powder. Die cut it and foam mounted over a panel I made from coloured cardstock. I think pink and grey are just made for each other and look so good together. 

I also used a patterned paper from Modern Graphics paper pack from Julie Ebersole. It always give a right contrast and modern feel to any card project. 

Sentiment is from the Floral Frame stamp set, and also heat embossed in gold. I finished it up with one sequin in gold. 

That's for today.  Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time,

xoxo,

D.

Pink + Gold Card with Daria Grushina [VIDEO]

Hello-hello Awesome People!

Daria here. I was playing with Floral Frame Stamp and die set. And there is a video too. There is lots of heat-embossing, pink and gold. So, it turned out to be very girlish birthday card. 

Here, you may find the process:

I started with stamping the Floral Frame with Versamark Ink and heat embossed it in gold embossing powder. Then, I die-cut it using coordinating die.

Next step was to stamp the Delicate Dots Rubber Background stamp to the pink panel. This beautiful colour of cardstock comes from Over The Rainbow Assorted Cardstock Pack. I used the central portion of the Floral Frame that left after die-cutting to mask the center. This way, I had a space for the sentiment free from the background dots.

I heat-embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set in the middle of the panel, using white embossing powder. I adhere the frame with foam tape. I also added a few sequins here and there for some extra shine.

This card turned out to be really tender. I love the combination of pink, white and gold.  Plus, it is completely made with heat embossing, and I love heat-embossing. Each time, it is like magic. Hope you like it (wink).

Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time,

xoxo,

D.

ps: There is another project, I've done with the same Floral Frame Stamp and die set. You may find it here, including a process video for the card.

Floral Frame Opaque Watercoloring with Cheiron

Hi there crafty friends! It's Cheiron here and I wanted to share this fun Floral Frame Birthday card with you. I have had some colored watercolor paper in my stash for a while now and never opened it. For today's card, I used a piece of grey watercolor paper and opaque watercolor paints.

I cut the watercolor panel to 4 x 5 1/4 and stamped and embossed the Floral Frame with Gold Embossing powder.  Then I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed it in White Embossing powder.  I colored in the leaves and flowers with opaque Zig Kuretake watercolors. I also decided to color the inside parts of the geometric shape in an apricot color to give it a real springlike feel.

Once the image was dry, I cut a mask of the stamped image and placed it over the top and added splatter in white, gold, pink and purple (to match the flowers) leaving the inside of the image clean.
To finish my card, I cut an A2 card base from Neenah solar white. I also cut an Apricot cardstock panel to 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and adhered it to the card base. Once that was done, I adhered the watercolored panel to the card.

Fall Floral Frame with Cheiron

Hi there crafty friends! It's Cheiron here and today I have a simple card for you using the Floral Frame stamps and dies in a palette perfect for fall. To create my card today, I did some ink blending on the background using a Blender Brush and Fossilized Amber and Rusty Hinge Distress Oxides. Then I added some splatter in the same colors, plus white gouache and gold (from my Tonic Midas Touch pen).

Once my background panel was dry, I stamped the sentiment from the Magnolia stamp set, which I think is just perfect to go with the fall theme. I colored the Floral Frame stamps in with some fall colors of Copics and added some gold Sophisticated Enamel Dots to give the card a finished look. I love how easy it is to change the entire look of this stamp by simply choosing a different color palette!

Ink Blending On Colored Cardstock - With Carissa Wiley

Hi everyone!  It's Carissa Wiley here with you today.  I'm so happy to be back here on the Neat & Tangled blog with a couple of simple projects featuring the new products in the August release.  I'll be showing you the amazing results you can get by ink blending on colored card stock.

I'm showing two iterations of this card in today's video tutorial, that way you can get a feel of the different results achieved on both light and dark card stock.  I'll also give you a tip for partial embossing with the new Delicate Dots background stamp.

I've parted the new Grateful Heart stamp set with the previously released Floral frame.  I think they pair beautifully and the geometric frames give a modern flair to the gorgeous Grateful Heart florals.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you've enjoyed these projects.  Until next time, I hope you have a fabulous day!

XOXO
Carissa
