Cat Punch and the Eclipse Technique

10 / 13 / 1710 / 12 / 17

Have you heard of the eclipse technique?  I hadn’t until I started seeing it on pinterest and I had to find out how to do it.  It’s really simple and makes a great effect on your cards and scrapbooks.  I used the cat punch for mine and I love how it turned out!

On the first two cards, I used Wood Words from the Annual catalog.  I stamped first and then used the cat punch to punch out.  Before putting the cat back in place, and to add an extra layer, I punched the cat out of a solid color of card stock and adhered that to the back of my stamped cat.  Then I used dimensionals to adhere it back on to the front of the card (so it stands up a bit).

On the last card, instead of stamping, I used a piece of Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper on a Cajun Craze Card Base.  This cat is a little more hidden but I love it!  The sentiment came with the September Paper Pumpkin Kit!

Here are the supplies I used for all three cards:

Fall is here! Global Design Project #104

9 / 15 / 179 / 15 / 17

I love the Global Design Project! So much inspiration to create something on your own. This week we are CASEing (Copy and Selectively Edit or Copy and Share Everything) a card by Allison Okamitsu. It is so cute!

We had some really nice cooler weather last week here in North Texas and it’s got me in the fall mood.  Of course today it’s like 94 but it was nice while it lasted.  I used a new technique on this card that gives it a stained glass look.  I used the leave from Colorful Seasons stamp set, heat Embossed on vellum, turned it over and colored in with Stampin’ Up Markers.  The marker colors I used are Rich Razzleberry, Calypso Coral, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.  I think it’s beautiful.

I CASEd the background by embossing several gold leaves on the card base.  Then I CASEd the image and sentiment by making it the focal point of the card and putting it on a shaped  frame.   The last thing I CASEd is the little bow like she did off to the side.  🙂  Enjoy and create something today!

Here are the supplies I used:

Pumpkin Spice Latte Everything!

9 / 7 / 17

I love Pumpkin Spice AND I really love Pumpkin Spice Latte!  Fall is one of my favorite times of the year and we really don’t get much of it in Texas!  It’s here and gone in a blink of an eye and I think that’s why I love pumpkin spice anything because I feel like I’m getting to celebrate fall just a little early.  Who cares if it’s still in the 80’s outside, that doesn’t stop me from having a hot pumpkin spice latte.    🙂

I knew when I saw this set Merry Cafe I had to have it just for the Hello fall sentiment.   So many cute images and sentiments in this one stamp set.

My card came straight from Pinterest, designed by a fellow demonstrator Amy Keonders.  I love this card so much!

I fussy cut the cup and the elements that are on it.  I stamped the leaves with Early Expresso ink, Cajun Craze, and Crushed Curry.  Here are the other supplies I used:

Embossing Paste

In the new Stampin’ Up Annual Catalog there is a new product called Embossing Paste.

I wasn’t sure about it at first but now I love it!  It’s a great way to add some texture to your card and it’s easy to work with.  You can use the re inkers to add color to the paste or you can use it like it comes.
