Tutorial Tuesday- Stamped Thickers

Hey everyone, Katie here! It's Tutorial Tuesday so today I'm showing you how I stamped on the Thickers I used for the title of my camping mini album. I love camping so you'll always see a lot of camping scrapbook pages on my blog and I love finding new ways to embellish them.

I used the Writing cling stamp and Delicata gold ink by Imagine Crafts for this project. You want to use a background stamp for this technique.

1. Start by placing the thickers you want to use on a piece of plastic or something else that they will easily come back off of.

2. Ink up your stamp.

3. Place your stamp down over your thickers and just lightly press down. Be careful, you don't want to wiggle your stamp or the pattern will smear.

4. Lift your stamp straight off your thickers and let them dry.

It's a pretty easy technique, but a fun one! It adds a little extra embellishment to those fluffy letter stickers!

Thank You Kindly - Scrapbook Saturday

Hi everybody, Norma here with you today! Today I have a cute layout to share with you that I created using the beautiful Tea Time Nesting Components kit, Writing Cling Stamp, Build A Shrine and Southern Sayings stamp sets.

I started out by layering strips of various papers from the 6x6 Marion Smith paper pad included in the kit.  I also fussy cut some of the images from the paper like the clock and roses you see here.  Next I stamped some of the flourishes from the stamp set included in the kit and the Writing stamp.

I wanted to use this image from the clip art sheet but it just need a little more so I added the ATC frame from UmWow Studio.  I altered the frame by applying a couple of layers of gesso and then embossing with a stamp from the Build A Shrine set.  Then I spayed it with Lindy's spray ink and distressed the edges.

I love the way the frame turned out!  Okay so next I added some more fussy cut images from the paper pad and some Domino washi tape.

I used black tulle along the left edge.  I created a small bunch for the rose to sit on and added the super cute Marion Smith Tea Time Charms.  Aren't those little utensils the cutest?!

I  love how whimiscal the Tea Time Nesting Components kit is, don't you?!

Alright, for the finishing touch I added "thank you kindly" from the Southern Sayings stamp set.   And on that note I'd like to take a moment to thank all of you for your friendship and support over the last two years.  Today is my last post as an official PWP Design Team member.  I have been extremely blessed to be a part of this wonderful Paper Wings family and I am very grateful for the oppourtunities it has given me.  I will definitely miss being a part of this talented group but I felt it was time to give someone else a chance to share their talents with you.  I will still be around supporting my friends and who knows, maybe I'll get to pop in from time to time ;D.  Yah never know!! 

Okay so...I really don't like goodbyes so let's move on shall we! I hope you've enjoyed my post featuring the Tea Time Nesting Components kit.  For more inspiration check out our guest designer Marie's beautiful cards and bookmarks: Themed Thursday - Card Set, Katie's fresh take on the kit: Feature Friday - Tea Album, Dana's fantastic tutorial: Building up an extra heavy gel textured background and Erica's gorgeous accordian mini album: Tutorial Tue.  These ladies have been rockin' this kit so go show them some love, you're sure to be inspired by thier creations.

Hi, Cathi here! Today I wanted to feature a layout using Paper Wings Productions gorgeous vintage images and stamps. I also used items from the September Nesting Components kit. Another gorgeous mix of products Carrie has put together!! I chose the image from the Fall Clip Art Sheet, I just love these colors and the gorgeous image.

I embossed the Owl Panel stamps in the September Nesting Components with the Golden Pumpkin Blush embossing powder, using the kraft tags included in the kit.

I included Prima leaves and the vine from the kit and for some background stamping in Walnut Distress Ink used the Writing Backgrounds stamp. I took the velvet ric rac in the kit and made a flower then finally added a bow from the gorgeous fall colored seam binding in the kit as well!

I hope you like my layout, and see how many possibilities for creativity you can find from the kits: layouts, cards, altered projects, anything you can imagine!!

Themed Thursday - Happy Easter!

Okay so for today I'm sharing a fun little Easter project that I made using a variety of PWP stamp sets:

     

This cute little project started out as an empty ribbon spool and shoe box lid.  Here's a look at the lid before I cut it up:

I actually intended to make this into a shadow box for my Feb hop project but I just couldn't make it work.  So I set it aside and it just happened to be perfect for this project. ;D  I added some additional layers of green paint, 3-D Enamels flourishes and randomly stamped the Writings Backgrounds Cling Stamp.  Next I cut it down to size creating a nice backdrop for my project.

For the base, I padded the empty spool with foam then covered it with a scrap piece of Debbie Mumm fabric.  On the top, I adhered a piece of white cardstock that I ran through my Cuttlebug to emboss with the Swiss Dots folder and then inked with Tim Holtz Shabby Shutters.

Moving onto the banner, I cut a wooden dowel into two pieces for my "poles" and gave them a light wash of TH Vintage Photo.  I stamped the pennants onto various patterned papers with the Happy Day stamp set.  Next I fussy cut, layered the pennant pieces and highlighted with a white gel pen.  To string my banner, I punched holes and added grommets for a nice finished looked.  I hung the banner on a thin sheer ribbon.

I stamped two sets of the flowers onto pink patterned paper, fussy cut and highlighted with white.  (Tip: highlighting helps create depth on the image.)  After attaching to my "poles", I wrapped pipe cleaners around the poles to soften them a bit and add visual interest.  

 I choose to use a bird from the Bird Melange set and stamped him on yellow patterned paper.  He's topped off with a small crown from the Crowns stamp set.

For the sentiment I used a verse from the Scriptures stamp set and layered it on various pieces of K&Company cardstock die-cuts.

To finish off my scene, I stamped the butterfly wings from the Mini Wings Stamp set on yellow patterned paper and added a little blue coloring with Tim Holtz Distress Markers.  

I cut the banner with my Cricut Stand and Salute Cartridge then stamped "Happy" from the Happy Day stamp set and hand wrote "Easter".  Next I attached ivy, flowers and an Easter egg to finish it off.

That's it friends, I hope you enjoyed my little Easter project!  Thank you so much for stopping by today and for all of the sweet comments you leave me.  I really appreciate it and enjoy reading them.

Have a Beautiful Day :D
