I've used the Party Balloons stencil to create this colorful balloon bouquet!  I used Distress Inks:  Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade,  Shabby Shutters, Broken China, and Wilted Violet.  Each balloon was masked off and ink blended from the bottom upward.  

The panel was trimmed on either side and added with foam adhesive to a white notecard that was lined on the edges with black/white striped paper.  The AMAZING It's Your Birthday greeting stamp set is just gorgeous!  I adore the handwriting font!  As a final touch, I added some Silver Fever Fusion sequins.

These two mermaids were made for each other!  I've paired the darling mermaid image from Mermaid for each Other with the new Halftone Dots Cover.  The panel behind my Halftone Dots is a layer of alcohol ink background I created.  A few gems from Studio Katia to finish!

Studio Katia--1st Birthday Celebration / Shaker Card

 

Hello!  I am helping Studio Katia celebrate turning ONE!!  I have been a follower of Studio Katia for a while and was so tickled to be asked to help them celebrate this milestone!  Congrats Katia!

You should have arrived from Laurie C.'s blog HERE.  If not, the full blog hop list can be found over on the Studio Katia blog HERE.  Your next stop is the amazing Anna Kossakovskaya!

The theme of the celebration is SHAKER cards!  Shakers are so fun to make and receive......any age loves an interactive card!  I personally love to say, "shake, shake, shake" when I make one!

I started with making my shaker card using the Dotted Shaker Tag.  I added in a sequin mix called Crystal Rainbow Fusion for my shaker element.  Next I went to work white heat embossing images from Together We Bloom onto Bristol Smooth Watercolor paper.  

The images were then colored with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.  The colors just blend beautiful on this paper......no water needed!  For my sentiment, I added a black glitter die cut "thank you".  ♥♥

**********************************

My second card uses Copics to add color to white heat embossed images.  I used RV14, RV25, and RV19 to color in the flower, from Thank You so Much, on the back portion of the vellum image.  I love the results!!  My vellum was layered behind a light blue panel that had the opening of the flower die cut in the center.  Another black glitter "thank you" was added to the front and some Crystal Clear Fusion sequins were scattered.
