Bookmarks by Cathy

 Goodmorning, Today I have 2 bookmarks for you.

I started out by cutting a strip of paper 6in X 2in. 

Then I used a Tim Holtz stencil and green distress ink and make a background.

On a scrap of paper I stamped the creepy creature and colored with Copic markers and cut out and added to the bottom of the bookmark.

For this one I started with 2 different purple distress inks to make the background. 

I then stamped the cross stich on the bottom of the bookmark for the creepy striped creature to stand on.

On a scrap of paper, I stamped the creepy standing creature and colored it with Copic markers and cut out. Next, I placed the cut out on top of the stamped cross stich. Around the background I stamped the grunge writing in purple ink. 

I then stamped the sawtooth stitching off the top of the bookmark.

Lastly, I added some white spots to it.

Trio of Cards by Preeti D.

Hi friends :)

Hope you are doing well.

Preeti Datta (Dutt Preety) here from the Guest Inspiration Team. 

For today's post, I've created a Trio of Cards using some gorgeous VLVS! rubber stamps. I always need greeting cards to give to friends & relatives, so it is a great idea to have a stack of them ready for whenever the occasion calls for it :) 

I stamped the beautiful focal images (using VLVS! awesome stamps) onto watercolour paper panels & did watercoloring within the focal images. Then, loosely watercolored in greys around the focal images to create depth.

I created a grungy background by second & third generation stamping with VLVS! sentiment stamps around the focal images. And to create an artsy look & frame the pieces, I loosely stamped the Sawtooth Stitching Lines Stamp around the panels.

 In the end, the watercolour panels were adhered to A2 sized grey card bases & I added a sentiment sticker to each card.

Altered Canvas by Shanna

Hey everyone. Shanna here today to share with you a fun creation. 

I have been wanting to play with this resins I got and had no clue what to do with them. Well I figured that out really quick! What do you think?

I did create a video so check it out. 

I loved using my stamps to create the background of this piece. 

I added some glass beads and glass glitter with a matte gel on some of the corners. 

Of course there is no glass on this but I thought the sentiment stamp Through The Looking Glass - 19353 was fitting. 

The stamp Pair of Butterfly Wings - 19647 went perfectly off the side of the frame too. 

Items Used:

Through The Looking Glass - 19353

Pair of Butterfly Wings - 19647

Stitching Lines -19642

Sawtooth Stitching lines - 19643
