under the sea

ATC swap Everything Scrapbook and Stamp. Theme Under The Sea. 

Backgrounds are a mixture of sprays and acrylics and have a little mother of pearl shimmer. The fish combine a few sprays as well. 

Valentine's 2023

I used Memory Box Craft Die - Slim Pinpoint Heart Plate 94550 

after creating stenciled and sprayed backgrounds. The die was on a sale with Scrapbooking Made Simple last year. 

I used the pinpoint sides of the hearts similar to braille. Sizzix lustre wax and metallic gilding polish gave the hearts some definition. Then I outlines them in white and lastly created some top and left shadows.

Fun to see each of them different using the same die.

If I can make it to the craft store before Saturday I'll submit these atcs.

The December theme was wine and pastels. I used this cute wine glass due and holographic "bubbly". The background is oil pastels smoothed out using mineral spirits then run through a die that has hole punches. I thought that carried over the bubbly theme. Rubbed silver on the edges of the atc and oil pastel pieces

Always fun to get a new stencil. This one from stamperia didn't disappoint. I loved adding lines and stars behind it. The paper is 49th and market. I was able to do it using one full sheet of paper

Triee to concert odd rabbits to pugs. Not sure it worked. But it was fun. A card for my friend who provided us the possibility to have Roxy and Duke in our lives
