Long time no post. Thanks so much if you are seeing this!!! I'd like to say you will see me here more regularly but we'll just have to wait and see.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> This is actually a post I started back in January and it never got posted. I started an art journal (a moleskin book) specifically to practice doing flatter pages with collage clusters. Way back then my plan was to focus on this and probably fill the book this year. Besides these 2 pages I only got a few more done (I'll share the others later) but I'm not giving up on this, I will get back to it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you have any questions, please, ask away. If you'd like to keep more up to date on what I'm doing, follow me on Instagram!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Crafty Hugs to You!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Wanda </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The leaves have started to change around here just a little. We had been feeling the fall weather but then this week has all been above average temps and feeling a bit more like summer although it won't last much longer.</p><p style="text-align: center;">There are two challenges that inspired the direction of this card. First on The Funkie Junkie Blog the current challenge is<a href="http://frillyandfunkie.blogspot.com/2020/09/fall-foliage.html" target="_blank"> Fall Foilage</a>. Second on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog the challenge is <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/?p=21677" target="_blank">Dry Embossing</a>. Also this month Simon Says Stamp's IG Challenge is Fall Color so I'll be entering it over there too.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvCEqK_uRE8jBVimSeLZxtO6PYcv1QQR_aD9H1_HJlT2KJdgaGHWvaPGc3Fs1azcm_Iz4DjCXPM8htD-jo3sQQv7kNgJswekHN0ZoFlP1_DmCBkrX0VEZoedTEkAZG1ksgMLsiBq5-2kA/s800/CardFallFoilageBlessings1b.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="549" data-original-width="800" height="275" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvCEqK_uRE8jBVimSeLZxtO6PYcv1QQR_aD9H1_HJlT2KJdgaGHWvaPGc3Fs1azcm_Iz4DjCXPM8htD-jo3sQQv7kNgJswekHN0ZoFlP1_DmCBkrX0VEZoedTEkAZG1ksgMLsiBq5-2kA/w400-h275/CardFallFoilageBlessings1b.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I used Mixed Media Heavystock for my main panel. Color was added with Distress Spray Stains first spraying it on, drying and then dipping into the left over color, drying and repeating until I was happy. I embossed this panel with the Leaves Texture Fade using the circle Diffuser plate set. I placed the rectangle piece with the circle cut out over the texture fade as my second plate. This embossed the leaves everywhere except where the circle was cut out. I lightly sponged Distress ink over the embossed panel to bring out the leaves more. I also set the circle part of the Diffuser set over the circle area that did not emboss and using a Distress Blending Brush added color around the edge of the circle. Distress Paint Picket Fence was splattered over the panel.</div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4dczQhn_WmNalf32vHS2Dna8zsOnNJe5SJ7eXdkBTLT_-IRQ_mWr8-Q4JY1n3Vlb2agz85O7371Gk6xfBlQgHZNxunv69FlND9DDtIbG0O60UJftDcWr6dgtUtYfcWNKBXQyZ1587UcA/s800/CardFallFoilageBlessings1f.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="547" data-original-width="800" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4dczQhn_WmNalf32vHS2Dna8zsOnNJe5SJ7eXdkBTLT_-IRQ_mWr8-Q4JY1n3Vlb2agz85O7371Gk6xfBlQgHZNxunv69FlND9DDtIbG0O60UJftDcWr6dgtUtYfcWNKBXQyZ1587UcA/w400-h274/CardFallFoilageBlessings1f.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The sentiment is from the Sweet 'n Sassy stamp set, SNS-20-026 Friendship is a Blessing. Distress Spray Stain was used on a Mixed Media Heavyweight #8 tag using more yellow colors - same process, spray, dry, dip, etc. but I also dipped into a little orange. The sentiment was stamped with Archival Ink Black Soot, die cut with Sizzix, Tim Holtz, Stitched Circles and Distress Paint Tarnished Brass added around the edge. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For all the leaves I began by making 3 colored panels using Distress Watercolor Card and Distress Spray Stains (spraying, drying, dipping, etc.) and then die cut all the leaves in the set, some from each color.

These were mentioned during the Tim Holtz demos this summer whenever he shared a technique that he wanted a smooth paper towel for. One technique he shared is Eroded Metallics. This is a technique done with Distress Paints. I did the technique after the demo but only had regular paper towels and it does pick up the texture of the paper towel. That wouldn't always be a bad thing but not something I would want all the time. After the demo I tried to get some of the Cloth paper towels and couldn't find any in stock. Last week I checked again and was able to order some from Amazon. Now that I have them I wanted to do the technique again to really see the difference. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I painted a piece of Distress Mixed Media Heavystock.

My order of Crackling Campfire had just come in the mail I wanted to make a blend which I did also using Candied Apple and Carved Pumpkin. Splatters of water added texture.</div></div><p style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="924" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjYXByZEnB0-uLxjSlZKhA34gaXkMnKD28Ins8Gi5o1XBmu5FhwYC1GVpRxsT9uRcjvANLZ7FzaeoGwrZMFGJx4_S6ZpzYqYr_SUS6BzKDwxIcRuwF67cXwupBvSLro7t5nz8FPj4cGPA/w485-h640/TagGearFlower1a.jpg" style="text-align: left;" width="485" /></p><p style="text-align: center;">Then what to do... I took inspiration from this month's A Vintage Journey Challenge which is <a href="http://www.vintagejourney.com/2020/09/cogs-gears-and-textures.html" target="_blank">Cogs, Gears and Texture</a>. I misted the back of the tag with water and then embossed it with the Sizzix, Tim Holtz 3D Embossing Folder running it through my Vagabond 3 times (3D - 3 Times as Tim says) to give it a fabulous, dimensional design.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="828" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie5SofUN3oGnDZEcDTwkBgmv6L3paXw1G9-MdUANdSzJ6rKaRCRInhgScKgljroCyHpM6YPrvjHyHxkUz1HtUmTopYF9mkHJlViQljexBrzbm1_ehRPcAHxj0of-Vi_sUabm821Sw7LPo/w542-h640/TagGearFlower1c.jpg" width="542" /></p><p style="text-align: center;">To really bring out the design I added Ground Espresso using a Mini Ink Blending Tool with a light touch going over and over to catch all the texture. I painted the edge of a #8 Etcetera tag with Black Soot Distress Paint and then glued the tag to it with Distress Collage Medium.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="741" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYS758ONGygdgToV3OO7px9WWiydK73b1UEr8z_JhNUIJ_TIkdKeGR6wmQFUs4qBR9OODbdNoV2uLrW1H68bLxjx7nQjbclKrErEdKkHQZSdRa4qnyYbZ0nxHCxHIcjKDcYhm6xj4NEE/w605-h640/TagGearFlower1b.jpg" width="605" /></p><p style="text-align: center;">I neglected to take any process pics of the gears or flower.

Color was added with Distress sprays and inks and the flower crumpled while still damp.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The gears were layered with foam mounting tape and a bit of Distress Collage Medium to be sure everything stayed stuck.

I love how the background came out!! I put the inks shown onto the non-stick sheet of my Media Mat, sprayed them with water and dipped in a piece of Mixed Media Heavystock - going back and forth between drying the paper, spraying the paper, and dipping more until I liked it. Before putting the paper into the 3D embossing folder I misted the back of the paper and then put the folder with paper through my Vagabond 3 times for a great emboss.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4suvMNXwDJq-jVQM5EM41E0CXWUHDWPTJ421UnCSJzD2Wp24KecekW4w_hAkSvtL63ho2lxVfWY8Nu2xB0dZl9E37jXDsttKAykg_yOw3lZURnuQn87RI7hF7RO3jxMKsHoDjHo__03o/s700/CardJesusFriend1d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="609" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4suvMNXwDJq-jVQM5EM41E0CXWUHDWPTJ421UnCSJzD2Wp24KecekW4w_hAkSvtL63ho2lxVfWY8Nu2xB0dZl9E37jXDsttKAykg_yOw3lZURnuQn87RI7hF7RO3jxMKsHoDjHo__03o/s640/CardJesusFriend1d.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Using a Mini Ink Blending Tool I inked the embossing using a light touch to keep the ink just on the high spots.

I'm so excited to be the guest designer for the current challenge on the <a href="https://frillyandfunkie.blogspot.com/2020/08/guest-designer-wanda-hentges.html" target="_blank">Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog</a>, It's A Wrap. Sara Emily is the hostess for this challenge and she made a gorgeous wrap card. The other designers also have wonderful projects so be sure to check them all out if you haven't yet!!</p><div style="text-align: center;">I chose to create a complete ensemble to use for wrapping a Christmas gift. If you remember my winning entry (found <a href="https://artbywanda.blogspot.com/2020/07/merry-christmas-3d-poinsettia-card.html" target="_blank">Here</a>), it also had poinsettias on it. Nope, that's not why I have poinsettias here, I just like them :-)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I have packing paper that I've saved over time when receiving orders that include this off-white paper. The pieces I have are rather large so I tore one in half by creasing the paper very well, getting the crease damp and tearing. I also tore a little bit off the other 3 edges to match.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="496" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrUZ9OJdslqCByzMNjO_6CjSwcIqkk5YK_kBv9smzyeNeAhIaQNWAJJlXPVvXNX0UEcLX1dPRTFV-ESzFgH6x1urZUuI8J16oMJ7NaoM5M9ecOgc9gUYmolplpuzi2QF8-1U3qPyMXSps/s640/ItsAWrap1k.jpg" style="text-align: left;" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I began by lightly spraying the paper with Gloss Spray (Olive). If you press quickly you get a nice mist but if you press slower you get nice splatters so I also did some of that.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="490" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYYllzsK2wWia_5B843HNOlRviiujYzT8RTk_utxUbVFe5AEfTFNf9hWbYnqKZpXwpbRt5C7oxKM3e5nBT7xwWW4Br5xO4nnXwsyTrmKYBHS4vikw-JHoZWuZyKJqxMvIPII_27MlnXCI/s640/ItsAWrap1l.jpg" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Once dry I went to stenciling on the poinsettias using Distress Paint. I used the Tim Holtz stencil, THS049. The stencil design includes 3 complete poinsettias and then also partials. I only wanted to use the whole poinsettias and so to make stenciling easier and quicker I taped off around them. Using Tim Holtz blending brushes I first added either worn lipstick or victorian velvet or a combination coloring the whole poinsettia. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCIDzFYzBfRD4LxC6KXVDvsNTgRQck9eBBLaV4cgkPaDf-V7uhRbtksVW4SoOAH966SaVo057mYSuH2bW3SNNan1juBFQUpKiOjZ0bd2BWAhbe9OFrHSQMdlaedqJHaEctfKQajDnrqLE/s640/ItsAWrap1m.jpg" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Next I used barn door brushing from the point of the leaves toward the center, not coloring the whole flower. After those 3 flowers were done then I'd move the stencil and do the next 3. The victorian velvet would eventually take over the first blending brush no longer really showing the worn lipstick. At that point I'd wipe the brush well on a paper towel and then continue with the worn lipstick.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="900" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfIxkLMu0Rlq3uzU5Ccq0YcBwhClZd2DC1eZ7Ku7lkKujorW7szZZ5G0747pmhU4BA3sHMeBtIe2PJcp0FzhqbqFTpCUAWFMTD3e2SDLhcrVAkXLJvFpFQPv7y0Nh-QWsp36bkfXztp38/s640/ItsAWrap1n.jpg" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The paper all stenciled.

I often use up excess paint and/or ink on a page in a journal. The right side of this spread had some small spots of ink (mostly green & blue) probably from a stencil being pressed on it to remove left over ink. On top of that ink is stenciling done with excess white paint while working on another project recently. You can see that design because the paint resisted the Distress Spray Stain and Oxide Spray used over it. To help the spots of ink that were already on the left side become part of the whole I used the splatter stamp from the Grunged stamp set inking it with Mermaid Lagoon Oxide Ink and spraying the stamp with water before stamping it onto the pages. I love how that worked!!!!!!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The pictures below shows most of the supplies used in this spread. All the die cuts and parts of die cuts I used were from my scrap/left over bits pile.

The crayon sticks well where there is no embossing. After rubbing the crayon everywhere take a damp paper towel and lightly rub over the embossing to clean it up. This is a technique Tim shared while doing his Saturday demos. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSqhuVzSLdlGKiIns-k_yGrvBjCZT_z_nT43RBy3alsFOCjeeKe8EjQ0Vp8p16tlbihwgXQTpTGNgEDFdg1_Ws28XgCLj53enfMjeQMurLFLuEfbzflhdizIYi7uvRBLHxt9dL2XhV7zc/s1077/JournalPageEph1_18d.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1077" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSqhuVzSLdlGKiIns-k_yGrvBjCZT_z_nT43RBy3alsFOCjeeKe8EjQ0Vp8p16tlbihwgXQTpTGNgEDFdg1_Ws28XgCLj53enfMjeQMurLFLuEfbzflhdizIYi7uvRBLHxt9dL2XhV7zc/s640/JournalPageEph1_18d.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another technique he shared.... transparent Grit-Paste through a stencil, after the paste is on lightly tap the palette knife over the paste to give more texture, add embossing glaze over the paste, tap off the extra powder and return to the jar, let the grit-paste dry and once it's dry then heat to melt the powder. If you heat it before it's completely dry you will get spots that bubble up and I did get some on this page. Not a bad look, it's just important to know that it could happen.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO7gdmYGdHZS7bZ7NMPVoyKVVEA2oKk2vMfr_qA7KTwHfZaqzWmYZ63w0iqKqM5q2mEND9WNDr-Ar8U7_792Cs3-jszzzKwm8rIMF0G-Lu2-KdzUDPh2FmCsVXjqPJ2JlIpjhmkk9VsoA/s859/JournalPageEph1_18e.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="859" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO7gdmYGdHZS7bZ7NMPVoyKVVEA2oKk2vMfr_qA7KTwHfZaqzWmYZ63w0iqKqM5q2mEND9WNDr-Ar8U7_792Cs3-jszzzKwm8rIMF0G-Lu2-KdzUDPh2FmCsVXjqPJ2JlIpjhmkk9VsoA/s640/JournalPageEph1_18e.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">More stenciling with Distress Paint.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH6XoG59IhqlLXspKKhcavvv_rLGvQgE-y1TLYqzRQLJJsnjyfnB7kFKDkHH0TO_vEDDHwnVbFJdZeHZACc01QTz0DCg19TsAZFbToY1ncwU-A-ajkv_clkZTklGEery5B0zpuqUW8T-s/s798/JournalPageEph1_18f.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="798" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH6XoG59IhqlLXspKKhcavvv_rLGvQgE-y1TLYqzRQLJJsnjyfnB7kFKDkHH0TO_vEDDHwnVbFJdZeHZACc01QTz0DCg19TsAZFbToY1ncwU-A-ajkv_clkZTklGEery5B0zpuqUW8T-s/s640/JournalPageEph1_18f.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">An old gift card was used to add Black Soot Distress Paint to create a frame.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjewS-KT5cCvQQCzKl2HiFdscDqjqKYT5E-wa6E_GphtiDm1AJMcI-bMQLuQyfTApzefiQ14QlNygK-EyqFHOKpka-_BX8rrGsQkZw6sNmX09SRuQYGh2MMWoeD6LkRoRpAY2hmf-YGtSw/s815/JournalPageEph1_18g.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="815" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjewS-KT5cCvQQCzKl2HiFdscDqjqKYT5E-wa6E_GphtiDm1AJMcI-bMQLuQyfTApzefiQ14QlNygK-EyqFHOKpka-_BX8rrGsQkZw6sNmX09SRuQYGh2MMWoeD6LkRoRpAY2hmf-YGtSw/s640/JournalPageEph1_18g.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRNEPHJwoETdTiPXWx0h6nFYJJ94bpsV3P0VDwNUuk9C8rn535jpz515vCTE2Z1l5LWy0Bpsw1TzLKRL812hPCwU5f73xuHn9qKxbYpkdr527cE-vxQLzDZlTaibyHtDgkfNglwx_f6do/s751/JournalPageEph1_18j.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="751" data-original-width="700" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRNEPHJwoETdTiPXWx0h6nFYJJ94bpsV3P0VDwNUuk9C8rn535jpz515vCTE2Z1l5LWy0Bpsw1TzLKRL812hPCwU5f73xuHn9qKxbYpkdr527cE-vxQLzDZlTaibyHtDgkfNglwx_f6do/s640/JournalPageEph1_18j.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The bottom piece is die cut black cardstock.

However, I own a Royal Sovereign Laminating Machine and that is what I used instead of a Minc. I used Deco Foil (again what I have) and she used Minc Foil. I was careful to get the Resist Spray painted on the whole image tipping the card as Paula suggested. But I have a lot more white spots after embossing then Paula got. Since there is more than one variable I can't be sure why but I'm inclined to think that perhaps the laminating machine does not have as much pressure as the Minc. I just might have to invest in a Mini Minc to test that theory. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN_n6T2MKZwPdgcTw6mqUtGRWfxd3PxvmyxU4NIIieHLDjrHct0PzKG3pqQsgk37WEA7gsUsF4Dq6FRZ3KIeCGzXv5tSk7lMUlK7I95MYb8ZDVJ-CJgCHa7thvUZldrvfjIcQ4nxICbDE/s600/3DPoinsettia3b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN_n6T2MKZwPdgcTw6mqUtGRWfxd3PxvmyxU4NIIieHLDjrHct0PzKG3pqQsgk37WEA7gsUsF4Dq6FRZ3KIeCGzXv5tSk7lMUlK7I95MYb8ZDVJ-CJgCHa7thvUZldrvfjIcQ4nxICbDE/w400-h300/3DPoinsettia3b.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After the all the basic steps I splattered the whole panel with Distress Paint Picket Fence (I forgot to include the paint in the picture at the bottom) and embossed around the edges with Liquid Platinum. For the next layer I stamped with the large Baroque stamp using Dusty Concord Archival Ink. Around the edges of this panel I used a little glue stick and pressed on the same foil I used for the image. For the sentiment I inked white card DTP with regular Distress Ink, sprayed the paper, and dried. The sentiment was stamped with Embossing Ink, embossed with White, trimmed out, glued to white card, and cut as shown and a brad added. Distress Vintage Platinum Glitter Dust was added to the centers of the poinsettias gluing it on with Collage Medium.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGarLEptCaZEppvgNY-NSfQpCMLMbD7hdsOKd5f-g3J0OyaOz8HKWWiHnwpTkMgF_4QjGwPjBzwWxdd3uroZ_mzWi-qCe_DfgbUKL2OwncV7qOHmwM58cnPUS41uMsR-nWhzYN_sRi8kM/s600/3DPoinsettia3c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGarLEptCaZEppvgNY-NSfQpCMLMbD7hdsOKd5f-g3J0OyaOz8HKWWiHnwpTkMgF_4QjGwPjBzwWxdd3uroZ_mzWi-qCe_DfgbUKL2OwncV7qOHmwM58cnPUS41uMsR-nWhzYN_sRi8kM/w400-h300/3DPoinsettia3c.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4iBBTH7mCLGvC2w-vMJ-pMumsaRW0SMAbdAagRNKnZYM4xj9ufwjxGx6s98Te9Cqb0ZiPJ80Mp-YeJ_2TL9Rl22bfAi3MgM7_AeuZ33KzFS1_yx85d81We5spvgnDeI7I1xxFG_9_FyQ/s600/3DPoinsettia3d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4iBBTH7mCLGvC2w-vMJ-pMumsaRW0SMAbdAagRNKnZYM4xj9ufwjxGx6s98Te9Cqb0ZiPJ80Mp-YeJ_2TL9Rl22bfAi3MgM7_AeuZ33KzFS1_yx85d81We5spvgnDeI7I1xxFG_9_FyQ/w400-h300/3DPoinsettia3d.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggypGyIrIcFhHwCjSM0ZifDukEbnDxXc-pgth2Rq4_ee_lXfSBDQD-CIgULMZD2r-IREqI0-2P6n_fXZGk-ZvkQWkHlRAPPT9IBKkb2Lc-vuwwINUmKs_MN-6nhyphenhyphenc1z1kMUISKyn2mvm4/s600/3DPoinsettia3e.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggypGyIrIcFhHwCjSM0ZifDukEbnDxXc-pgth2Rq4_ee_lXfSBDQD-CIgULMZD2r-IREqI0-2P6n_fXZGk-ZvkQWkHlRAPPT9IBKkb2Lc-vuwwINUmKs_MN-6nhyphenhyphenc1z1kMUISKyn2mvm4/w400-h300/3DPoinsettia3e.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgemIPziY9pBJMNuVyLT4z-z2MAPNvyDijaHHeHUQZEFPeVCCCs9GV0RJt1X_9UMDY7tlpJF0Kxc7F5JWGVXy0VXqE_DYTJRLLB66UFQevNJ8zYuQKlO8y-upuGOHIacfuYR_gewYuVhZU/s600/3DPoinsettia3f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgemIPziY9pBJMNuVyLT4z-z2MAPNvyDijaHHeHUQZEFPeVCCCs9GV0RJt1X_9UMDY7tlpJF0Kxc7F5JWGVXy0VXqE_DYTJRLLB66UFQevNJ8zYuQKlO8y-upuGOHIacfuYR_gewYuVhZU/w400-h300/3DPoinsettia3f.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijiWGS8ul7cGX09RUk-D1icVMZIl_f-0iNLJwB2V8Qz5F0wlI9kur7CvJS39cIQhRnFG7duvZzZd562_xRAZWckJimO9KOkxKYeE1PcWn5064TTsK_UOna9J5E_-2tMfTYkyHgMmdYddg/s600/3DPoinsettia3g.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="412" data-original-width="600" height="275" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijiWGS8ul7cGX09RUk-D1icVMZIl_f-0iNLJwB2V8Qz5F0wlI9kur7CvJS39cIQhRnFG7duvZzZd562_xRAZWckJimO9KOkxKYeE1PcWn5064TTsK_UOna9J5E_-2tMfTYkyHgMmdYddg/w400-h275/3DPoinsettia3g.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Art By Wandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18404705591454163234noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9051085606003413599.post-78582787714252478372020-07-15T14:42:00.003-05:002021-01-14T06:02:18.366-06:00Most Wonderful Time 3D Poinsettia Christmas Card<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello from rainy Southern Iowa. We are happy for the rain and I'm sure the farmers are even happier. Much of Iowa has been in a drought and our grass was turning brown. Of course, this means the lawn is going to need to be mowed.</div>

I'm sharing another card made with the new Sizzix, Tim Holtz Poinsettia 3D Texture Fade. This is such a wonderful embossing folder!!! There are so many looks that can be done. I've been seeing some gorgeous cards on Instagram and in the FB group, Tim Holtz Addicts.</div>

I cover the whole panel with Distress Black Soot paint, let it sit a bit and then wiped back the paint. It's even more gorgeous in person.</div>

I wanted more texture and used an old Tim Holtz hammer tool. One of the heads that can be put on has metal bumps. I set the paper on a thin slightly cushy material that was in the Susan's Garden line at Elizabeth Craft Designs and was used with tool on leaves to give them detail. A piece of mat board or chip board might work well. You don't want anything too cushy or you will make holes in your paper.</div>

Next I used largest Stacked Label die. I was somewhat hesitant as I wasn't sure what it would do to the 3D embossing but it worked just pressing some of the 3D down a bit. I did later put it back in the folder and run it through my Vagabond just once to pop up the high spots that were pushed down.</div>

I ordered a few of the new Chapter 3 Tim Holtz releases from Sizzix from my favorite store, <a href="https://www.memorybound.com/" target="_blank">Memory Bound</a> in Ankeny Iowa. One of the items I got was the Poinsettia 3D Texture Fade. It's such a beautiful folder!!! I made this card yesterday with it. There will be more cards coming :-) I don't have step-out pictures today but will tell you what I did.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used Distress Water Color paper for my image. When you open the texture fade one side is bumped up with the image and the other side is flat with the image debossed. I inked this flat side, just on the flat part, with Distress Oxide ink Speckled Egg. I did get some ink on inside areas that were very close to the same height as the flat part but that was just fine. I actually helped give some shadows to the image. After inking the folder, I lightly sprayed water on both sides of the paper, put it carefully in the folder, and ran it through my Vagabond 3 times. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then used a water brush along with Distress Inks to add color to the image. I used Festive Berries ink for the flowers and Mowed Lawn for the leaves and stems. I painted some areas twice giving deeper color and allowing more ink to sit in the low areas. This worked well but I did have some spots where the color bled out more than I wanted it to. I then decided to use the water brush and Speckled Egg Oxide to watercolor around the edges of the image. I'd paint a line of the Oxide right at the edge of the image, blot the brush to remove of the color and then blend out my line a bit. It blended in to the background really well and really helped to shadow, define, and help the image pop more. I went back and painted Mowed Lawn Oxide Ink just on the stems. There were still some small spots of white around the image, especially at the tips of the flower petals. I used the Festive Berries Distress Marker to lightly color these spots and also used it here and there to create some deeper shadows on the edges of some flower petals. Distress Paint was used to color the centers of the flowers. Finally to give some highlight to the image I used my finger to lightly brush/dab Picket Fence Distress Ink over the high spots of the flowers and leaves. It really came out beautiful and I'm glad because coloring is not really my comfort zone :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used the mini Merry Christmas stencil and Speckled Egg Oxide Ink on the background placing the stencil so you could definitely tell that is what it was saying. Using a splatter brush I added Distress Paint Picket Fence over the whole panel, dried it, and then added just 2 spritzes of Tarnished Brass Mica Spray. The mica is very subtle but definitely catches the light as the card moves. So pretty!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Around the edges of the panel is Grit Paste sprinkled with Distress Rock Candy Dry Glitter and allowed to dry.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next layer is metallic kraft card. I distressed the edges and then crumpled the paper a bit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Merry Christmas token is from the Tidings Tokens pack. I had started to use Festive Berries Distress Crayon to fill in the letters and decided white would be better. I wiped much of the red away but didn't scrub it all out. Then I used the Picket Fence Crayon and I really like how it looks like the red is marbled in the white.</div>

The mottled color that you see in the circle on this page is bleed-thru from the other side of the page. A lesson to remember to use gesso if I'm using a lot of spray or wet paint. I knew it would be easy to cover up but decided to keep some of it. I used clear gesso over the whole page and let it dry. I die cut a circle to use a mask before putting texture paste through a PaperArtsy stencil. I had thought about spraying over the texture paste but when I found out this weeks challenge over at <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/" target="_blank">Simon Says Stamp's Monday Challenge is "Play With Paint"</a>, I decided to do just that.</div>

I painted everywhere but inside the circle with Twisted Citron. Next I sponged on Mowed Lawn trying to hit mostly just the texture paste leaves. Then I used Peeled Paint through a Tim Holtz stencil. I like how it seems we are in a forest surrounded by trees and leaves. There are paint splatters with Spun Sugar.</div>

The is pen work with both a white gel pen and a black pen. The die cut leafy stems are from the Sizzix / Tim Holtz set Garden Greens. They are inked and sprayed including some Mica Spray (Tim Holtz Tarnished Brass) to give some shimmer. The bird is from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology pack, Botanicals. The butterfly is from the Idea-ology Snippets pack, Field Notes. </div>

Hello!!! I hope you are doing well!! I have a card to share with you today. I love these words because the world really does need who you were Made to be.</div>

Let's get going with the how I did it for this card. I'll work from the bottom up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The folded card is just white cardstock. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next layer is done on Distress Watercolor Cardstock working on the smoother side. I sprayed Spun Sugar Spray Stain on my craft mat, sprayed it with water and dipped the paper into it. Dried it and dipped again. Do this until you are happy with it. The alpha image (Faded Type CMS397 set) was inked with Spun Sugar Distress Ink, sprayed with water and stamped onto the paper repeating a few times. The paper was then dried.</div>

Picked Raspberry Spray Stain was splattered onto the paper using the Distress Splatter Brush. The edges were inked with Picked Raspberry and then distressed with the Tonic paper distresser.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Alcohol Lift-Ink was stamped (Floral background from set CMS220) onto a Yupo Alcohol Ink background from my stash that I didn't particularly like and the lift (which I love) stamped onto Alcohol Ink Glossy Paper (this is the piece used on this project). The lift ink was dabbed from the Yupo background using a paper towel - dab ink, move to clean spot on the paper towel and dab again, continue until all the wet ink is dabbed up and then buff your Yupo to remove any left over residue. Set this piece aside to use on a later project. I stitched around the stamped piece with white thread and distressed the edges. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut a piece of white cardstock just a little larger than the floral background, inked around the edges with Picked Raspberry and Carved Pumpkin Distress Inks and attached the floral background to it.</div>

The ephemera and mushroom images are from the Idea-ology Field Notes Ephemera pack. Some of the top and bottom of the script piece was torn off. It was then sprayed lightly with Tattered Rose Spray Stain and Picket Fence Spray Stain, and dried. I added more layers of Picket Fence Spray Stain drying between layers until it was as muted as I wanted. The long edges were distressed with paper distresser and Picked Raspberry ink lightly sponged around all edges. </div>

The mushroom tops were water colored with Distress Ink and a water brush to brighten them up. I used Picked Raspberry on 2 groups and Carved Pumpkin on the 3rd group. The tallest mushrooms were a lighter color then the medium sized mushrooms and therefore the Picked Raspberry ink looked more pink on the tall group and the other mushrooms looked more red. Later I sponged Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink around the edges of the mushrooms to brighten them even more.</div>

Color was added to the Idea-ology paper doll girl with Distress Markers. The Idea-ology bouquet flowers were colored by using a water brush to added some Distress Ink (not fully coloring them) and then spraying the flower with water to bleed the ink out. The round No. 7859 ephemera piece was inked on the edge with Squeezed Lemonade and tucked in as shown. You could even cut the circle in half and save the rest for another project but I didn't think of that at the time. </div>

Here's a card I made awhile back after spending some time playing with alcohol inks and alcohol lift ink. </div>

After choosing one to use I stamped the doily using alcohol lift ink and then stamped that image onto glossy paper. The stamped image was set aside to use another time. I took the alcohol paper and dabbed at the stamped alcohol lift ink with a paper towel until I'd removed all the lift ink. </div>

The "brick" layer was created using the 3D brick embossing folder. When using a 3D folder it's best to lightly spray your paper (I used Distress Heavy Stock) with water and then run the folder and paper through your machine 3 times. After it was embossed I added color by sponging on distress ink with a mini ink blending tool, and spraying on a little stain and also some mica.</div>

I used a piece of paper from "the box" to cut the stems and butterfly. I'm pretty sure the paper is texture paste through a stencil and then sprayed with water and Oxide Sprays. After die cutting the pieces, the edges were inked.</div>

Hello!!! I know, very long time no blog. If you are still following here, I hope you are doing well during this time. I am currently not welding as much as I was and I've been enjoying getting some creative time in. I've been posting a lot on Instagram and have thought about a blog post for a couple of weeks and today is the day. If by chance you don't know, Tim Holtz has been doing FB live demos every week since the middle of March and they are chocked full of information, techniques and inspiration. Can they still be seen you ask? Yes!!! Besides finding them on FB you can find them all on <a href="https://timholtz.com/blog/" target="_blank">Tim's blog</a>. Really, they are so good!! If you have time, I totally recommend working through them. </div>

I stamped a quote from a pretty old set of stamps using Archival Ink and quickly embossed it with Distress Embossing Glaze, hickory smoke. *did you know that all, every single one, of the stamp sets made by Stampers Anonymous never retire. They are always available from <a href="https://stampersanonymous.com/" target="_blank">Stampers Anonymous</a> because they manufacture them. Even if they don't currently have the set, they will make one if you order one. How Cool is that!!!!</div>

Tim did an extra demo in the middle of a week focused completely on Sizzix. One thing talked about were the Embossing Diffusers. I hadn't used any in a very long time and had to get them out. After embossing with the large piece, I set the oval piece over the middle and added ink around it (yes, he demoed this) to really define it.</div>

I thought some metallic to catch your eye on the shabby chic piece would be nice but wanted to keep it subtle so used the Mica Spray for that also. I shook up the bottle, removed the sprayer, and put the brush bristles down into the bottle to get the liquid onto them. Yes, they do fit and it worked perfectly.</div>

Hello Friends!!! I know, it's been awhile since I posted. Life is good but busy. The grandbabies are growing so fast!!!! I'll have to post a picture of them soon for any of you that don't follow me on social media. I have done some creating but it's usually because I need a birthday card or sympathy card. I need to be working at taking the time to get those cards blogged.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But onto today's card. I recently won a give away on Instagram by <a href="https://gracielliedesign.shop/" target="_blank">Graciellie Design</a> and got to do some shopping. She has beautiful digital designs. This card uses a butterfly from the Beautiful Birthday Wishes Stamp Set and a sentiment from the Hey Lovely Stamp Set.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I printed out the butterfly with our laser printer and then foiled it using Deco Foil Amethyst Watercolor Foil and a hot laminator. I cut out the butterfly leaving a small border. The yellow was added with a gel pen and then I sprayed the butterfly with Pearl Mica Spray wiping the mica off the foiled areas. This gave a great shimmer as the image moves.</div>

I added a bit of ink all around the edges and then attached the background to a folded white card. The butterfly was attached leaving the outer areas of the wings unattached to lift up. The sentiment was distressed around the edges, inked, and attached with foam mounting tape.</div>

This card was made for a young man's birthday. You can maybe tell that he turned 19 :-) The background is part of a Gel Press Plate print and I added embossing powder around the edges. Then there is some blue washi tape and the black and white strips with words or numbers are from a Tim Holtz Idea-ology set of tapes. The ring around the 19 is a black plastic ring from something and I used embossing powder on it. </div>

Hello Friends!!!!!!!! Long time no blog!! Over two months since my last post. It's been busy. Lots of time working in the shop and lots of time with the grandbabies. This picture of Lola and Daniel was taken about a month ago when everyone was here at the same time (so they were both about 4 months). They are growing so fast!!! We usually get to see them each at least once a week, sometimes more. </div>

I do get in some creative time and post quite a bit on Instagram (and FB). It just seems harder to make time to write a blog post. I'll try to do better.</div>

There was a challenge for the month of June, #atcad2019, that my daughter was interested in and wanted me to play along also. We were to make an ATC (artist trading card) every day for the month of June. I got behind at times but always managed to catch up and actually did 30 ATCs. (for anyone that doesn't know, and atc is the size of a sports card, 2 1/2" x 3 1/2") These are all posted on my Instagram account, many with additional process/supply pictures. Here I'll just share the finished atc with no additional details but I'm totally happy to answer any question you might have. I gave myself an additional challenge when I started. That was to start every atc with an already made (or started) background. I have piles and files and boxes of background play that need to get used. It also would save a bit of time. I must say though, it was hard at times. I love making backgrounds and sometimes I'd think, "oh, I should try this; or play with that" but I'd rein myself in an choose something already done. Many times I did build upon the started background though, adding more layers... fun stuff!!! And I truly did have fun doing the challenge!!!</div>

Hello!!! Long time no posts. Yes, I'm still around. It's just been really busy. I recently went through my pictures from the last few months to find projects that hadn't made it to my blog yet. These 3 projects use mostly A Way With Words cutting dies, designed by Suzanne Cannon for Elizabeth Craft Designs. Some of the dies are from the newest release and others are older. I've also used some dies from the Elizabeth Craft Design Planner Collection and some circle Frame-It dies.</div>

The balloon on this card is die cut from a piece of cardstock that blotted up excess ink from another background. After cutting the balloon, the butterfly spray was cut across it and then the edges of the balloon inked. Bliss was cut from the same color added behind the balloon to show through the butterflies and then ink was added here and there. The balloon tie was done the same way as Bliss.</div>

The background for this card was created with Distress Oxide Inks. First I put ink on my craft sheet, added a bit of water and pressed the paper into the ink. After that I added more ink with an ink blending tool.</div>

This project is a planner page. For the background I used spray inks and paint laying down die cut "masks" before spraying and inking to create a layered background. The dies (Planner Patterns) used to create the "masks" are from the Elizabeth Craft Designs Planner Collection. The Butterflies are the fall out pieces from the Balloon card. The circle under the word Notes is the fall out circle from the Baby card. </div>

My background is created on Mixed Media Heavy Stock. The paper was sprayed with water, then the 3 colors of Distress Oxide Spray and I sprayed quite liberally, then mostly dried along with adding water. Some larger water blotches at the end and blotted before fully dry.</div>

Over this I brushed a thin coat of Distress Collage Medium matte. I went all in one direction and then lightly in the other direction at the end. I tried not to work it too much but there are brush lines in the Oxide which really just gave another layer to the look. I left this overnight to dry completely. I didn't want any dampness to the paper at all.</div>

Next comes the crayons. I began with Tarnished Brass in areas, then Antiqued Bronze. Ground Espresso was used around the edges and I also used some Picket Fence here and there. It looks really fabulous in person but so very hard to catch in a picture.</div>

A strip of the burlap from Textured Surfaces colored with Picked Raspberry Crayon. I scribbled on some crayon and rubbed over it with my finger.</div>

The card is put together as shown. The tag and words are from Tim's Stamper's Anonymous set CMS155 Simple Sayings. I used the stamp platform. The tag was stamped first with black Archival Ink not getting a full coverage of ink on the stamp. Next I stamped the tag with Distress Oxide Wilted Violet. I love the variation of color, lights and darks. The words are stamped with black. Around the edge is some Mustard Seed Crayon. </div>

I think the Breathe tag has Distress Paint in the recesses as it was already done but not used from an older project. Anymore I always use the Crayons to add colors to the Idea-ology pieces.</div>
