Day One with Guest Designer Cindy Lawrence

Good morning everyone.  We are all in for a treat this week as we have Cindy Lawrence as a guest designer for the next 3 days.  Cindy is an amazing designer as I'm sure you will see.

Here's Cindy:

Hello, friends!   

I am a long-time fan and friend of JustRite Stamps, and am absolutely thrilled to be guest designing for them for a few days.   

My project today was made with the beautiful Poppies Labels Twenty Nine set.

I began with a bright green card stock base, which I die-cut with the largest Spellbinders Labels Twenty Eight die.  I used the die as a mask while I stamped the smaller poppies image all over the background with Memento Bamboo Leaves ink, and air-brushed the stamped area with a YG17 Copic marker.

I stamped the poppies on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and colored it in with the following Copic markers:

*leaves – YG03, YG61, YG63, YG67

*blooms – R22/R24/R29/YR07

*flower centers – W3/W5/W9

*sky – BG000 

I then die-cut the image with the Spellbinders Labels Twenty Eight die set.  I wrapped a bit of pale yellow seam binding around the base of the bouquet, tied it in a pretty bow, and finished it off with a bit of white crochet string, a poppy colored button, and a sweet tag.  I stamped the “poppies” sentiment on the tag with Memento Bamboo Leaves ink, and air-brushed it with a BG53 Copic marker.

Inside the card, I stamped the poppies in Memento Lady Bug ink, and the sentiment in Memento Bamboo Leaves ink.  I die-cut the sentiment piece with a Spellbinders Classic Oval die for added interest.  I then air-brushed the oval with a BG53 Copic marker.

That’s all she wrote today, friends!  I’ll see you right back here tomorrow!  Have a very happy Monday!

Day Three with Guest Designer Holly Simoni

Good morning and welcome to Day Three with Guest Designer Holly Simoni.  We have really enjoyed having Holly showcase some amazing mixed media projects this week.  Be sure to check out Holly's blog - Wild Wyoming Art Cafe' - for more inspiration and ideas.

Here's Holly: 

 I can hardly believe it's my last day as a Guest Designer for JustRite Stamps!!  I've had so much fun creating mixed media projects and trying the stamps in new and different ways.  I hope you'll give some of the techniques a try!  So here is my last project, my Imagine Damask Card.

 

I absolutely love this Grand Damask Background Stamp by JustRite Stamps!  It is so very beautiful, and when I saw it, all I wanted to do was showcase that stamp.  It just speaks for itself really.

 

 I inked the stamp with embossing ink and stamped onto ivory card stock.  I sprinkled copper embossing powder over the entire image and shook off the excess.  Then I used my heat gun to melt the embossing powder.  The copper is so shimmery!  I misted with my favorite colors and allowed that to dry (you can dry with a heat gun as well if you like).  Then I trimmed the piece to the size of the stamped embossed image.  I created a simple folded card with a 1/4" border around my Grand Damask Background and adhered that to the front of my card.  I used a Copper Leaf pen to ink the edges of the card as shown.

Next I stamped the word Imagine using the JustRite Winged Vintage Labels Two and Three.  Those words in the stamp set fit just perfectly inside the Spellbinders hobnail bezels.  I die cut the word to fit inside the bezel and then inked the bezel with copper leafing pen and turquoise pen by Faber Castell.  Then I poured in Matte Accents by Ranger Inc. and allowed that to dry.  I tied on the bezel with twine and adhered the bezel with 3D foam squares.

 

 

It's a very simple card to make, but has a bit of a mixed media feel to it.  I hope you enjoyed my projects this week!  I'm so honored to share them with you on the JustRite Stamps blog!

Hugs

Holly

 

Day One with Guest Designer Holly Simoni

 We are very excited to welcome Holly Simoni this week as a guest designer.  Holly is the queen of mixed media projects as you will see from today's project.  You can also check out Holly's blog http://www.hollysimoni.typepad.com/ for more great inspiration.

Here's Holly: 

I'm so very honored and excited to be a Guest Designer this week for JustRite Stamps!  They always amaze me with their new releases and each time they just get better and better.  I'm a mixed media artist at heart and love to use JustRite Stamps in my altered projects.

Today I have altered a vintage medicine bottle.  I call my Butterfly Dreams Medicine Bottle.  It reminds me to keep dreaming, keep creating and keep mixing art mediums.  (My two little girls think it looks like a magic bottle that would be in a Fairy's house.)

 

I began by pouring a little Glimmer Mist inside the bottle and rolling it around and heating it up.  Then I dropped in Mica Flakes and adhered some to the bottom of the front of the bottle as well.  I tied ribbon and twine to the top of the bottle.

 I just adore this swirling stamp in the JustRite Stamps Butterfly Dreams set.  I inked the stamp with StaZon black solvent ink and used the stamp without a stamp block, so that I could wrap the stamp around the bottle.  It worked perfectly.  I love the aged look of stamping on glass.

 

I also used the Butterfly and the word DREAMS from the JustRite Stamps Butterfly Dreams set.  I stamped them both onto vintage paper using black ink.  Copic Markers are great for coloring in the Butterfly and around the word DREAMS.  I painted on a thin coat of Glimmer Glaze and then added some Stickles onto the Butterfly as well.  

3D Foam Squares were used to adhere to word DREAMS.  I also bent the wings of the Butterfly and used another 3D Foam Square to adhere it to the bottle.  When the bottle is laying down you can really see all the fabulous dimension.  It's almost as if the Butterfly is about to fly off the bottle!

I hope you've enjoyed my Butterfly Dreams Medicine Bottle.  Sometimes the best medicine is to follow your dreams.

Thanks for stopping by today!  I'll be here a few more days, so check back tomorrow and Wednesday too!
