Mail Art Madness

Happy Mail Art Madness...

Oops, I mean Monday.... 

(or do I? I just started Keto on Thursday, so I'm definitely feeling some madness cutting my favorite food group ...carbs <3)

Stamps Used:

Girl Making Face

Cunningly Disguised

Punchinella/Sequin waste

Numbers Set

Cross Marks Background

Chevron Banner

Color Wheel Lines

I started by stamping "Girl making face" and "Cunningly disguised". I then drew an address block, and a signpost to hold the quote.  With the base started I then masked off the main images.

Using a combination of Distress inks in: Speckled Egg and Tumbled Glass (both oxide and originals). I then added a layer of ink over everything , and began adding background detail stamps.

To add depth I stamped my cross marks in black archival ink. 

The banner was stamped in "Spiced Marmalade" Distress Oxide ink

With the same ink I used for the banner I stamped the color wheel lines, then removed my masks.

I just love the reveal after all that inky madness...

To finish I colored my focal images, then found a matching postage stamp to tie everything together. 

I hope you have enjoyed this little tutorial and bit of sassy mail art!!!

Not Your Average Card!

Good morning VLVS fans! Pinky here today with another 

sassy project to share!

Now that the holidays are over and the stress is beginning to 

leave, we begin dieting season and I can't think of a grumpier time!

So why not lighten this time up with a sassy card.

I think this is a perfect card for all my dieting friends this week.

I love the amazing fun and rambunctious quotes you can find 

in Viva Las VegaStamps, appropriate for EVERY occasion. 

I love this Hand Holding Gun stamp- perfect for adding those

classic metal embellishments you have in your stash-

Hey everyone needs to clean their stash for the New Year right?!

Here is the back to my card. 

This card is 4.5X6" and matted in black card-stock. 

I left the colors very simple so the metal really pops!

I also used Miracle Tape for this entire card and it has quickly

become my FAVORITE adhesive!!

So who are you going to have fun with today? Come on make

those best friends laugh!

Until next time-
