Birthday: Skeletal Leaves from Alcohol Inks

 

I created a page using alcohol inks.  I die cut the autumn colored sheet with Tim Holtz' Skeletal Leaves.  The alcohol ink pages are thicker than card stock, so the die cuts take more time to separate the die cuts.  Not more difficult, but a longer time.  The picture does not do the card justice - the clarity and glossiness doesn't come across.  Believe me, this is stunning.

The Skeletal Leaves die set is new to me.  I surely will use it again!

Birthday: Hen in a Basket

River Rock, Cajun Craze, and Always Artichoke papers and ink were used. The hen stamp is from an old Stampin' Up! set; I cut off "from the kitchen of" to make it just the hen in the basket.

The corner punch is one of my favorites.  It adds so much for such a simple design. 

Birthday: Wheat on Watercolor Background

I did the same card twice.  The first was VersaMark and black embossing powder, then the watercoloring.  The second was watercolored first and then stamped with black StazOn.  The cards certainly have a different look.

 I love Our Daily Bread Designs stamps.  Much of this card is ODBD.  I stamped the image with Early Espresso; I used a blender pen for the coloring.
