Fun with bubble wrap

 

stamps used:  Altenew stamps/dies

I know you can figure out what I used for the background on these cards from the title.  

Bubble wrap!

All you need to do is press/tap ink pad to the bubble wrap then press onto cardstock.  that's it!  easy and fun!

To finish off these cards I went into my little container of already die cut images.  Makes for fast cards.

stamps used:  Stampin' Up stamps/dies

You can see more bubble wrap background cards of mine by typing bubble wrap in search bar over on the side of my blog post.  Here is a post with more bubble wrap cards and also in this post you can see the cards before they are finished.

I used one of the bird cards above for sketch challenge over at Pixel Maven's Retreat. 

Thanks for stopping by and please come back again soon.

Is it too early for bats?

stamps used:  Unity stamp co.

Couldn't resist putting ink to this adorable Cuddlebug Bat in three different ways for Unity monthly challenge.

Card #1

Stamped bat with copper ink onto bubble wrap background.  you can see details here on this post.  Wink of Stella was added to this card.  I will admit that I did a little rubber surgery to cut off the stars and moon off the bat because I wanted them separate.  

Tag

Stamped the bat with SU Fig ink pad then did a little watercoloring with the same ink.  White embossed the hello with white embossing powder onto a piece of SU Fig cardstock.  Adhered the embossed saying strip across the tag.

Card #2

This is a shaker card with Tulle for the window instead of clear plastic.  Stamped, colored the bat with blue ink then fussy cut him out and glued him to the card.  Stamped the saying onto scrap of white cardstock then punched it out.  Punched out scrap of black and same light blue cardstock as the note card then adhered to the card.  The black bats are a SU paper punch.  Added Wink of Stella to the bat wings.

Is it too early for bats???

Hope you like what you see and come back again soon.

Art journal - Dina Wakley #2

Here is some more play in my art journal after taking class with Dina Wakley.

Glued in stamped tissue paper onto watercolor paper.  stamped some inked up bubble wrap in the background and added a rub on that has been in my stash for ages.  On the burlap page I glued the scribble face we did in class as a exercise experiment.  Also used stencils with paint and saying printed on tissue paper.

A goofy selfie of the two of us after class.

Here is a look at the other side of the burlap page that had the scribble face.  On this side is a large tag that I stapled to it.  The tag is just a collage of a face I did in class and dies I had in my stash.  Again the background is from an inked up piece of bubble wrap.  the strip is kraft cardstock and washi tape.
That's it for this post but there will be more from my art journal in the future.
Thanks for stopping by.  come back again soon.
