Kerrie DT - Love isnt Complicated

Hiya and Welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty

Such Lovely Weather we have been having in my home town Harlow, Essex - But its really effecting my Hayfever so I have been hiding away indoors x

Today I am sharing a quick & simple make using just one sentiment, 2 stencils and lots of ink 

Bee Crafty Products used in this make...

Inkables Template Easy Fram Circle

Inkables Template Offset Dots

Polymer Stamp 'Love Isn't Complicated'

White - Linen Card Stock 

Products used that are available from Bee Crafty...

Tim Holtz - Distress Inks

I used low tack tape to attach the Circle Template to a piece of linen card stock I had trimmed down to fit the front of a 6x6 card blank. I think inked the background, lightest to darkest fromt he circle out to the edge using 'Picked Raspberry', 'Dusty Concord' and 'Black Soot' Distress Inks to create a dark purplely gothic looking background. I then Inked through the Dots Template using 'Black Soot' Distress Ink but only in the corners. I then stamped the Sentiment using Black Archival Ink

I fixed this inky panel to a matt of black cardstock and then atached to the card blank with the card turned to create a tent fold card instead of a traditional side opening card

DT Kerrie - No Angry Way To Say 'Bubbles'

Hiya and welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty 

I brought some more Stamps from the Bee Crafty Online Shop last week and just had to get inky with them as soon as I could - I also wanted to try something out of my comfortzone so I chose Blue inks I rarely use this much blue but I think I like it 

Products I used from Bee Crafty Online Shop

Angry Bubbles - WORDage Stamp

Circles - Inkables Template

Offset Dots - Inkables Template

Easy Frames 6" Circle - Inkables Template

Mermaid Lagoon - Distress Ink

Distress Inks

I am trying really hard to only buy things I am actually in need of and to try to use stash I already own so I dug through a box of A4 card packs and found a pack of nice stamping card I had forgotten about - ooooops - I trimmed a piece to a few mm smaller than my 6x6 card blank I then used low tack masking tape to hold the Inner-Circle Template from 'Easy Frame 6" Circle' Inkables Template Set in place from underneath while I inked over the circle edges using 'Tumbled Glass' Distress Ink. I then inked in from the edge of the card using 'Mermaid Lagoon' Distress Ink.

To create the bubbly look I inked through the 'Offset Dots' Inkables Template with the circle template still in place using 'Stormy Sky' Distress Ink. I then removed the circle template and inked through the 'Circles' Inkables Template using 'Stormy Sky' & 'Weathered Wood' Distress Inks.

I wanted to darken up the edges a little bit more so right on the edge I blended in using 'Weathered Wood' distress ink. I then stamped the 'Angry Bubbles' WORDage Stamp into the centre of the main circle using black ink.

I mounted this cardfront onto a black cardstock offcut that I had saved in my scrap box (to save cutting from a whole new piece of cardstock) - then mounted this onto my 6x6 card blank.

I added a few little clear sparkle flat back dew drops from my stash

Kerrie DT - Life is Good

Hiya and welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty

This week I have been playing with a few of my New Bee Craft Stamps and oh how I love them

I teamed the Stamps with Inkables Templates and lots of Distress Inks

Items I used on this project that are available from Bee Crafty

Stamps:

Backdrops Frames - Style Wire Circle Large

Backdrops Frames - Splatter Swirl Circle

Backdrops Borders - Flower Distress Border

WORDage - Life is Good

Templates:

Inkables Template - Circles

Inkables Template - Easy Frame Circle

Inkables Template - Dots

Inks

Distress Ink - Spun Sugar

Distress Ink - Worn Lipstick

Distress Ink - Pumice Stone

Distress Ink - Frayed Burlap

Distress Stain Spray - Antique Linen

I trimmed a piece of  watercolour cardstock and inked through the 'Easy Frame Circle' using first 'Spun Sugar' and then 'Worn Lipstick' distress inks. I inked over the 'Circle' cut out from the frame set into the corners of the cardstock. I then inked over the corners again using the 'Circles Template'. Once dry I sprayed the 'Antique Linen' stain spray through the 'Dots Template' i sprinkled over some salt and dried using my Heat-It tool.

I then I stamped the 'Style Wire - Frame' offset from the pink circle using embossing ink and heat embossed using gold embossing powder. I also inked up just the swirls of the 'Splatter Swirl Circle' and stamped it twice around the wire circle frame, I heat embossed these using the gold embossing powder.

I then inked up the stem of the 'Flower Distress Border' and repeatedly stamped this around the edges to create a frame, using embossing ink and gold embossing powder I heat embossed like before. I used a scrap of card to Ink and heat emboss just the Flower from the Flower Distress Border, I then cut these out, I embossed them over the backs using a round embossing tool and a soft embossing mat to give them dimention. 

I stamped the 'Life is Good' WORDage stamp into the centre of the circle using 'Frayed Burlap' distress ink. I then fixed the dimentional flowers to the edge of the circle (where the two Swirls meet) using my hot glue gun. I inked the edges of this topper I created using 'Pumice Stone' distress ink.

To finish my card I matt and layered the topper using Cream and Brown pearlescent cardstocks.
