PMS Friday Feature

I'm so excited to be today's Paper Makeup Stamps' friday feature! I made these tiles to hang in my girls' room. They are made using 4" x 4" 1/2" acrylic blocks that I had cut and then I asked them to round the top edges.

Here's a close-up of each one. The first one uses Kirsten. It is absolutely perfect as my middle daughter is named Kirsten and it's nearly impossible to find anything with her name!

The second tile uses Lauren in Love.

The third tile uses Jaina fairy.

The fourth tile uses Sprout (which I told my youngest is Caitlyn fairy because she was jealous of Kirsten:))

All of the images were stamped with Black Stazon ink onto watercolor paper. They were then watercolored with Stampin up! watercolor wonder crayons. I also used twinkling H2O's on the wings and for their hair streaks.

Here's another angle of the tiles.

This is what the girls' wall looks like. I'm hoping to make more as new fairies are released and add to the collection! The girls are absolutely thrilled with them!

Thanks for looking and have a GREAT day!

PMS party challenges

THese are my challenge entries for the PMS march release party on March 15th over in the Papercraft Planet PMS forum.

The first challenge was to create a 3D item. I decided to pull out the polyshrink and make a necklace from PMS' Kirsten fairy. I made it for my middle daughter Kirsten, who is now proudly wearing it! I used 2 pieces of polyshrink and stamped one with the image in black stazon. I cut out one as a circle and one as a scallop circle using nestabilities. After they were shrunk, I used a versamarker and pearlex to add the color to the back of the stamped piece. I then layered the 2 and put them back in the oven for the 2 pieces to fuse together.
The second challenge was to use the colors orange green and white. I kept it simple and watercolored this card:

The last challenge was a sketch challenge, so I created the following card from the sketch.

This is the inside:

What fun challenges these were! Hope there's another PMS party soon!

Have a great day!

PMS blog hop

I'm going to be playing along with the PMS Party and blog hop today. Here's my card using Chelly the clover fairy.

I wanted to make this card with a St Patricks Day theme. Chelly is watercolored and the flowers were colored with copic markers to match the card.
I added stitching detail to the card and love how it turned out.

I also added layers and stitching detail to the inside of the card, as well as a copic colored flower.

Have a fairy nice day:)

Watercolored Jaina

Here's a card I whipped up last night using Jaina Fairy from Paper Makeup Stamps

I have really gotten back into watercoloring this week. I haven't done it since I was in Fashion Design, and I forgot how much I really enjoy it, So I think I'll be doing a lot more watercoloring in the future!

Paper Make-up DT submissions

I am applying to be on the Paper Makeup DT and here are the cards I submitted:

Lauren in Love is colored with copics. I did a couple of different layers with her. Her wings are stamped onto vellum and then cut out and covered with micro fine opalescent glitter. They look so pretty!

I mounted the different layers with pop dots for exta dimension. This is one of my most favorite techniques for cards...I think it really brings them to life!
The circles, ovals and scalloped circles were cut out with nestabilities. The scallop ovals and circles were also finished with the microfine glitter around the edges.

My next card uses Chelly with lucky clover.
She is also colored with copics. I used Spica glitter pens to add shimmer to her wings and to the 4 leaf clover. The edge is done using a Martha Stewart edge punch.


The flowers I ussed used to be white. I colored them with the same copics I used on the clover and VOILA! They match perfectly!


I added a layer of Diamond Glaze over the Spica colored clover. It looks awesome together! So sparkly underneath the gloss of the diamond glaze.




I did the last card with one of Paper Makeups awesome quote stamps. As soon as I read this one...I knew I had to get it. It just something I really want my girls to learn!

The ovals are done with nestabilities. The quote is stamped in brilliance ink and embossed. The purple around the edge is done with copics and then blended out with the blender pen.

The brad is a filigree brad from Stampin up! and the butterfly is a Martha stewart punch. I punched the butterfly out of vellum and then colored it purple to match the quote oval. I trimmed the edge with stickles.

Keeping my fingers crossed:)

Have a great day!

more PMS:)

Another cute fairy from Paper Makeup stamps.

This little cutie is Jaina Fairy. She is colored with copics a couple of times and then cut out and layered with pop dots. You can see the layers better here:
I've added stickles to her lantern and wings as well as the flowers on the card. The card layout sketch is from the Whiff of Joy blog.

Have a great day!

I've got PMS!

I recently found Paper Makeup Stamps and their forum on Paper Craft Planet. This company has got the most ADORABLE fairy stamps and of course because I have 3 girls....our whole house just adores fairies of any sort!

This particular card was done for the sketch challenge over on the PMS blog.
Lauren in Love was colored with copics and then her wings and cheeks were covered with stickles cuz every fairy needs some sparkle!

Have a great day! I have a bunch more fairy cards to come....I've been having the best time playing with these cuties!
