Media Marks

Hello and welcome back!

Today I am sharing with you 2 cards using the new Media Marks 2 and the Mini Media Marks from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous. There are two sets of Media Marks Stamps (1 and 2) and the Mini Media Marks Set is a smaller versions of the 2 sets.

For my first card, I used the Media Marks 2 Stamp set. I stamped the ‘swirls’ several times on to watercolor paper and watercolor the images.  I then cut them and layered them to make a flower.  The leaves were also stamped and fussy cut.

For the background, I inked one side of the Bricked Texture Fade with Pumice Stone Distress Ink before sandwiching a piece of paper and running it throught the BigShot.  Then I cut the edges of the paper, outlining the bricks. Then I die cut some black cardstock using the Friendship Words: Script dies for the word 'hello'.

For the second card, I used the Mini Media Marks stamps set. I stamped and colored the leaves with watercolor and fussy cut them. A stamp with lines was perfect to make a pot. And the sentiment is from the Crazy Talk Stamp set. The background is the Flurry Stamp  from the Flurry and Pine Stamp set. I then stitched the edges before adhering to a grey cardstock panel then finally  to a card base.

Some hemp cord was tied around the pot and the sentiment tag attached to the bow.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.

What’s moo?

 Hello there and welcome to my blog.

This is going to be my first official post with a card. 

Now that the Creativation 2019 is over, I’m sure a lot of us have been drooling over all the new stamps, inks and paper and everything else that was showcased during the show.

I wanna say I was there but not actually. Since a few of my cards made it to some booths at Creativation, I feel like I was there too.

So What’s Moo?  Well, Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous has  alot of new crafty goodness instored for us. For the month of January, there are 5 stamps sets to be released and 3 stencils.  And one of the stamp sets is called Funny Farm.

When I saw the stamp set, I fell inlove with the Cow.

I stamped this cute fellow on to watercolor paper and watercolored the image. I cut the colored image using the Stacked Postage Thinlits Die and added a black panel behind it.  For the background, I used the Plank from the Craze and Plank Stamp set (CMS344) and stamped it using

 Pumice Stone Distress Ink.  I also added a black panel to frame the card before adhering it to a card base. Then I added a Typed Token and let it hang from a n Index Clip.  And on the corners of the card base, I used some Long Fasteners.

 

Thank you for stopping by I hope to see you again!

Welcome

Hello Friends!

Welcome to my new blog.

Just a little bit Sweet

My name is Mae and I am a crafter and a homeschool mom by day and a registered nurse by night.  I have been crafting for almost 10 years and blogged on and off for the last few years.

I have worked and designed for a few companies and shops in the past. And I enjoy making all kinds of crafty things.

As you can see this blog is still as plain as it can be.  Since I'm starting from a blank slate, bear with me as I start this journey with this new blog.

Within this week, I will be sharing some cards I have made for Tim Holtz for Creativation 2019.
So stay tuned.


love,

Mae
