Crafty friends

Hello there. I'm popping in with a very quick post to show this card I created for a crafty friend.


I started by blending CP inks (Limoncello and Samba) through my NBUS Blossom stencil from Create a Smile. The crayon stamp is by Whimsy Stamps, and the sentiment stamp and die are by CAS-ual Fridays. I created my own coloured cardstock using the Samba ink onto a scrap before die cutting and die cut the sentiment again using some black fun foam.

I'm linking up my card at:

SSS Wednesday - No designer paper

Since I have been using my cut-offs for the strip and die cut sentiment, 
I'm also allowed to enter the gates to Pixie's Snippets Playground - #350

  3. I know that if poeple call something "interesting" it has a negative ring to it, but that's really what I think: it's interesting on so many levels, I can't stop looking at it!

    En wat een leuk idee met die creatieve strook, in samenstelling met de

  10. This is gorgeous, Marianne! There are several interesting tidbits in this short post! First, I didn't know you could blend with the lush CP inks. I assume you smear a bit on a craft mat and then pick it up with your blending tool? Second, cool idea to make sure your pp matches your card colors ... just make your own! Mwah! Happy Easter! Hugs, Darnell
