It is Sunday and time for the new challenge at Paper Smooches SPARKS. This time it's an Anything goes challenge, that is easy, you can create what your heart desires as long as you use Paper Smooches stamps...lol


Here is what I have for you. I love the effect of VersaMark ink on the dark cardstock...subtle and soft. I also used the new Radiant Neon ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko...love these inks. I inked a piece of scrap with the ink and die cut my word. I then emboss it using clear embossing powder for the effect. I also embossed the brackets using VersaMark ink and clear embossing powder.

A Mix Media Canvas

Hello Everyone!!! Today I am sharing a mixed media canvas with you all. I completely lost myself while creating it :) Why??? Cos I really enjoyed the process. Today is my 2nd post at Eclectic Paperie as their Guest Designer for January. I would like if you leave me some love at there blog..

I created the background using gesso, gelatos and some creative medium. I used this lovely stencil by TCM. Now once I put the embossing paste through the stencil, I was lost as there are so many different textures in this one and I wanted to use all...lol

So, I stared at it for some time and could see these flowers forming...and that was the start of a new beginning :) Finally, I used some gold StazOn ink to enhance them and then used some of the Faber-Castell Pitt pens for more dimension. I then cut the vellum and pattern paper using my new Paper Smooches die. Using white embossing powder, embossed the sentiment. Inked around the sentiment piece and those tiny butterflies.Adhered everything together and then I could say that I just love the final result. Here is the finished piece:


Playing along the challenge at Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: "EMBOSS IT" I used Embossing paste!
I am also joining the challenge at Simon Says Monday challenge as the theme is Anything Goes and I love the creations by the DTs.

I will be writing the supplies later!
