Way too Sweet

Hello!

I'm at the Altenew blog today to feature a Way Too Sweet stamp set that is designed by my sweet team mate May! Congrats May on another wonderful set!

I continued to stay out of comfort zone and did a card without colouring.. I used Distress Inks and removed the colour from the images with water. 


I made this into a video tutorial if you're interested. You can watch it in here or in HD in Youtube. 





Supplies:
Stamps: Way Too Sweet 
Inks: Versafine Onyx Black, Victorian Velvet, Shubby Shutters and Scattered Straw Distress Inks
Superfine Clear Embossing Powder from Ranger
Sparkling Clear Cubbed Sequins and Small Clear Droplets from Pretty Pink Posh
White Twine

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a beautiful day!

Hugs
Marika

  1. Once again, a brilliant card. Flew over from the Altenew site to tell you this card is simply scrumptious.

  3. Looks fabulous Marika, (I will have to watch the video later as I've been awake over 26 hours now and don't think I'd take anything in at all lol.... I'm on night duty at the moment, with only one to go Yay)

  4. I love these scruffy images Marika and makes me think of hot summer days and love the pretty watercolored background colours and the spattering just adds a bit more interest to it as do the sequins and droplets. x
