I Brake for Gnomes!

Hello and happy FRIDAY!

In case you didn't notice...I LOVE this Gnome set from I Brake for Stamps.

You can find this gnome and these mushrooms on MS123 Gnomes Sheet.

There are so many wonderful images on this full sheet from I Brake for Stamps!


I just recently received this Tim Holtz Textured Impressions log die and embossing folder and I instantly thought of this set.  The leaves and branch are old Sizzix dies.  The grass was cut with a Martha Stewart punch.


Inside I used the Happy Birthday verse from Every Day Phrases.
I also used Large Leaf on the inside.

I Brake for Bistered Leaves!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a card that was inspired by Cheryl.  I kind of felt like I was being left in the Thanksgiving dust by her and all her amazing creations so I pulled out a stamp I hadn't used yet.

This is called Large Leaf.
The really fun part about this card is that I didn't color with my usual Copic markers.  I used BISTER powder stains to color the leaves.  I used Red and Natural for my leaves and then a little bit of yellow Copic marker just to add some highlights.  I know my fall leaves are never just one color.  I love how natural they turned out the color variations you get from the powders.


All I did was take some watercolor paper, stamp the leaf twice and cut them out.  Next I spritzed the paper with a little water and applied the powder.  You don't need very much powder at all for this.  I use my needle-nose tweezers to grab a little powder and I sprinkle it over the paper.  Then I spritz again.  Sometimes I just leave it as is.  This time I took a tissue and dabbed it around so that the entire leaf was stained and then just added a couple tiny little sprinkles of powder to make some darker spots.  Super easy and so pretty!


I used EVERY DAY PHRASES  for the Happy Thanksgiving verse.
