Look for Rainbows

Hello Want2Scrap friends, it is Linda here on the Blog, sharing a card using one of the fabulous sets from  Sparkle and Sprinkle - Splish Splash - who have been so very generous to the Design Team.  I do love silhouette stamps and this is right up there with the best - and of course the wonderful sentiment - what is not to love?

I have stamped the Sparkle and Sprinkle image using Imagine Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. It has been fussy cut/hand cut using scissors and popped up onto a white  Spellbinders Standard Circle SM, also using 3D Foam Squares.  

The layered image has then been popped up onto a pre-cut card front using the Labels Forty Nestabilities and stamped with  Seth Apter Spatter Stamp using Imagine Memento Ink in Summer Sky and Teal Zeal.  These layers have been added to A2 Valiant Honor Card Creator Etched Die using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares, and adhered to the precut card base using  E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

The sentiment has been stamped using Tuxedo Black ink, trimmed, layered onto slightly larger black card stock and adhered using  Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

Finishing with some of the Want2Scrap  72 Count - Teardrop Bling - Silver Rhinestones randomly added to the card front - they work perfectly as rain!

Birthday Cupcake Card with Chipboard Shapes

Candy here and today I am sharing my Birthday Cupcake Card featuring Want2Scrap's Cupcake Chipboard Shape and Candle Chipboard Shape and Sparkle N Sprinkle's Thinking of You Stamp Set. This 6" x 6" Birthday Card was created with  Echo Park's Birthday Wishes 6 x 6 Paper Pad and The Story of Our Family 6 x 6 Paper Pad.

I added  Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint in Light Blue to the Cupcake Chipboard Shape and Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint in Copper to the flame on the Candle Chipboard Shape with a sponge brush.  It took two to three coats for full coverage, but it dries almost immediately so it can be completed very quickly. On the design paper I traced around the top of the cupcake (twice) and around the candle and then I fussy cut the paper.  I then adhered the design paper to the chipboard shape with Beacon Zip Dry Glue.  On the second piece of design paper for the top of the cupcake I cut a slit for the candle and I cut the base of the chipboard candle as needed, and I then insert the candle into the design paper.  I attached this to the cupcake with pop dots as needed.  I added Sparkle N Sprinkle Starfire Semi-Transparent Glitter and US Art Quest Prills - Prill Spills to the top of the cupcake.

I stamped the sentiment using Sparkle N Sprinkle's Thinking of You Stamp Set and I heat embossed it using Sparkle N Sprinkle Antiquities Embossing Powder.  I die cut the sentiment using Spellbinders Shapeabilities Fancy Tags Three Etched Dies  I embellished the Fancy Tag with Pink Pearls and White Pearls.  Finally, I added Baby Blue Rhinestones and a Pink Rhinestone to the bottom right hand corner of the card front.

Have a great day!

Watch the Killer Whales Overlay!

Susie here with a layout about a Killer Whale Watch excursion I enjoyed with my family last year. It features a laser cut overlay from Want2Scrap and one of the Chipboard Quotations!  This outing was one of the highlights of our trip to Alaska and the Whale 12x12 overlay was the perfect start to my scrapbook page!

The Whales Overlay comes with a white background paper.  The first thing I did was to adhere the laser cut outs of the whales to the white paper. Then I took out my craft knife and carefully trimmed around the outside edge of the whales and discarded the rest.

 

The first photo I added was one of a whale breaching! I used 1/8" "Tear-ific" Tape from Sparkle N Sprinkle on the backside of the frame to adhere the photo in place.

I chose this photo-realistic paper of the ocean to back the overlay.  It came with a double white border printed along the outer edge - such a nice detail!

I decided to accent that detail by trimming down the outside of the overlay so that it fit perfectly inside the border!  (I will admit that I purposely lined up the horizon line of my photo with the horizon in the paper!)

I heat embossed "The Best Day Ever" Chipboard Quotation with Red Glitter Embossing Powder.  It picked up the red from my pictures and really made the perfect title!

I take a lot of pictures so I often create multi photo collages on my layouts. I print my photos with a white border.  If you are unable to do that and want to get the same look, just double mat them with both white and black cardstock. I just play with the placement of the pics until I find an arrangement that works for me!

Suprise!  That center photo flips up to reveal one more picture

Senior Year Overlay

Susie here today and I am sharing a fun layout I created using the Want2Scrap Senior Year Overlay.

The overlay is designed so that there is a collage area all ready for your pictures.

I used the overlay as a guide to cut pictures to the right size and shape:.

I flipped it over and added 1/8" Double Sided "Tear-ific" Tape around the edges...

... and then pulled up the liner and adhered the photo.

I added the photos one at a time.  I had a lot of photos so I was able to completely fill in the collage.  If you don't have enough pics, you can fill in the open segments with coordinating patterned paper.

Then I  adhered the main photo and edged it with Sleek Strip 6" Rhinestones in black.

You're a Hoot Owl Card

Candy here and today I am sharing my You're a Hoot Owl Card featuring Want2Scrap's Owls Chipboard Embellishment.  The cute design paper is from Echo Park's The Story of Our Family 6 x 6 Paper Pad.

I used Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint in Lime Green with a sponge paint brush to color this adorable owl.  I added Sparkle 'N Sprinkle Starfire Semi-Transparent Glitter (G1017) to the owl's tuft of hair and used Amber Rhinestones for the owl's eyes.

The sentiment is from Heartfelt Creations HCPC 3715 - You're a Hoot Cling Stamp Set  and I used Sparkle 'N Sprinkle Brown Fizz Opaque Embossing Powder (EP381).  I added the small rhinestones from the 72 Count - Turquoise Rhinestones package for the eyes.  Finally I added a Brown Rhinestone, a Turquoise Rhinestone and an Amber Rhinestone.

Birdhouse Chipboard Card

Candy here and today I am sharing with you my Birdhouse Chipboard Card featuring Want2Scrap's Birdhouses Chipboard Embellishment.  The design paper is from Echo Park's  Fine and Dandy 6 x 6 Paper Pad.  I added Sparkle 'N Sprinkle Starfire Semi-Transparent Glitter (G1017) to the design paper to add some sparkle.  I also used Spellbinders Nestabilities A Gilded Life Petite Pennants Etched Dies to cut the design paper.

I colored the Birdhouse Chipboard Embellishment with Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint in Walnut Brown and SilverGold. To create the shingles on the birdhouse, I used a Wow Embossing Pen and Sparkle 'N Sprinkle Fiery Brown Embossing Powder (EP369)  and heat set it.  Also, I added some Swirls Finesse - White Pearls, cutting to fit.

The sentiment is from Sparkle 'N Sprinkle' Thinking of You Stamp Set (769P6) and I embossed the sentiment using Bull Frog Embossing Powder (EP404).  I finished the card by adding Sage Green Pearls and cutting a couple coral pearls from a Nestabling Beaded Square Coral Pearl set to use as an embellishment.

Have a great day!

Bling On the Canvas!

Susie here today sharing another mixed media canvas featuring Want2Scrap bling!

I started my canvas with an Ultramarine Blue Color Burst watercolor background.  The cute little umbrella image is from the Sparkle N Sprinkle Splish Splash stamp set.  I heat embossed the image with Black Opaque Embossing Powder.

Next I wanted to try something a little different.  I used clear embossing ink and stamped the "Splish Splash" sentiment all over the canvas.  I sprinkled Waterscape Semi-Transparent glitter on the canvas and was pleased to find that it stuck to the canvas!

I wish I could tell you my experiment was a success...but I can't.  I knew I needed to secure the glitter somehow.  First I tried Workable Fixative.  It kept the glitter from falling off but was not a permanent solution as you could brush the glitter off.  Next I tried Acrylic Sealer Spray and it did not work either.  I ended up brushing off as much glitter as I could and then re-stamping and heat embossing with the Platinum Embossing Powder. I heat embossed the sentiment across the bottom of the canvas in Black Opaque Embossing Powder and then I reached for my bling!

Want2Scrap Teardrop Bling looks so cute sprinkled all over this canvas like raindrops!

Charm-ing Want2Scrap Mini Canvas

Susie here today to share a mini canvas featuring a cute charm from Want2Scrap!  Did you know that Want2Scrap has almost 100 different charms to choose from in a wide variety of themes?  Lately I have been indulging my interest in mixed media and I found one perfect for this project!

The Design Team was really lucky to receive some products from Sparkle N Sprinkle, one of our Cross Promotional Partners.  They have a huge range of glitters, embossing powders, adhesives and stamps - among other things!  I used the Puddles Stamp Set for this canvas.  I stamped and embossed one of the sentiments from the set using Black Opaque Embossing Powder.  I initially stamped the figure with the umbrella using Platinum Embossing Powder.

I quickly decided I wanted a more traditional silhouette, so I re-inked the stamp and stamped on top of the first image.  My stamp block is transparent so it was really easy to line it up. This time I applied the Black Opaque Embossing Powder and used my heat gun.  Perfect!

 I painted a puddle across the bottom right corner of the canvas with Ultramarine Blue Color Burst water colors, then splattered "raindrops" all over.  To attach the charm, I used a few pieces of  1/8" Tear-ific Double Sided Tape.

The final detail is a 3mm Turquoise Rhinestone which covers the hole in the charm perfectly!

Be sure to check out all the charms available on the Want2Scrap website!
