Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought we'd take a look at one of the new Kits that Stampin' Up! has brought out, it's really fun!, the name "honeycomb" kind of gives it away🤣 There are 9 cards to create, and it's a nice simple kit, would make an excellent gift for anyone who is thinking of starting off with card-making, there's no stamping involved - it's all "stick it together" and everything is included to do this.  At $32 it works out to $3.56 per card (which let's face it is pretty cheap for a card these days!) So here are the cards you can make (3 of each): Don't you just love the matching envelopes? The front of each card has clear embossed shiny bits on it (most obvious on the rainbow card at the top! with my photography) And there you have it, I haven't had the chance to play around and see what else I can create with this kit yet, so if you get it and do play around, let me know what you do! If you missed the video here it

Eureka Stamper Challenge Day 2

Hi Everyone,
oops this was yesterday's challenge, to find the largest stamp we own and create something with it!

As I have a few background stamps I thought I'd ink up one I haven't used much Marbled Background Stamp.
I wanted to create a multi-coloured effect, but the idea of using Stampin' Write Markers on such a large stamp wasn't so appealing, so I tried out the "Baby Wipe" Technique, but wasn't too impressed with the way it inked up.
So my next option was spritzing......
and this is how it came out:
I did feel this was kind of pink, which is great if you're a big "Pink" fan, but I'm generally not lol.
So then I made up another one using more green and blues
This is more my colours, but of course once I had it made I then thought I maybe preferred the Pink one! generally I'm pretty happy with the way it worked.
To make them I have had the stamp sitting in my bin, and I sprayed colour onto it (drops of re-inker, mixed with Isocol alcohol liquid into the Stampin' Spritzers), I've used 3 or 4 different colours, then having the stamp still the wrong way up, I've moved it onto my table and pressed the card onto it. You don't want to get the stamp too wet or it blurs the image too much.

Then with these 2 cards I've heat embossed the Stylized Birthday stamp. Love this stamp it's nice and easy to use, always gives a great image, and it's big enough to make a great card on it's own!

Well that's it for challenge day 2 (little late admittedly) I'll see how I go with challenge day #3 hopefully will be back later..... watch this space as they say!

Hope this inspires you to create!
God Bless love
