I'm really enjoying mixing up my stamps and dies from my stash! Today's card uses products from many brands.
First comes the coloring - I stamped with donuts from Lawn Fawn Donut Worry Stamp Set using Versafine ink on to Bristol Smooth cardstock. Then I used Tombow Markers to color my donuts adding a wet brush to smooth. Since I didn't purchase the coordinating dies, I used what I had to cut them out. EK Success 1 1/4 inch Punch cuts the donut perfectly, for the inside I used my Crop-A-Dile II and set the hole punch to 3/16. Then I stamped the sprinkles with Hero Arts Passion flower Ink. Setting those aside, I started stamping on Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock, my background with Sprinkles Turnabout from Concord & 9th. Ink colors are: Hero Arts Bubble Gum, Memento Lulu Lavender, The Stamps of Life Pixie and Ranger Sea Shell Pink all in the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. Next I created a donut box by using my Sizzix Big Shot to die cut a "frame" by using Squares and Stitched Square dies from The Stamps of Life. One look at the "donut box" and I thought - shaker box! So I grabbed some transparencies and cut a 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 square and used Scor-Tape to adhere. For lift, I used two layers of foam tape all along the edges. I placed my donuts on a scrap piece of cardstock, glued them down and placed some sequins in my "box" and secured them with the donuts piece. Next I wrapped my donut box with bakers twine from my stash.
To pull my card together I used Recollection from Michaels Cardstock for my base. For my sentiment, I stamped with Versamark Ink and sprinkled Hero Arts Pink Prisma Embossing Powder (that came in My Monthly Hero kit) and heat embossed. Using Hearts in a Row Vertical Die Set from My Favorite Things I die cut the sentiments and adhered them down. Used Scor-Tape to really hold my Donut Box down and my Stardust Gelly Roll Pen to embellish the edges.
Have a great day and keep on crafting!
