Week 1 Summer of Creative Chemistry


Grá O'Neill - Paper Learning Curve - Paper Smooches Good Gab, Lawn Fawn Cole's ABCs, Stitched Rectangles, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Cracked Pistachio, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Twisted Citron, Ground Espresso

I decided to take up the Creative Chemistry Challenge this summer. I've used the 2015 colours for this blended spritz and flick background.  In order to let the background take centre stage, I've kept it very CAS with some simple stamping and negative diecutting.

This anniversary card has a masculine recipient in mind, but I'd love to get it too! Adding the darker distress ink around the panel intensify the colours and highlight the stitched border.

We Totally Click


Grá O'Neill- Paper Learning Curve: Paper Smooches We Totally Click, Simon Says Stamp Dot Stencil, Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangles

Monochromatic ombre smooching using Cracked Pistachio, Evergreen Bough and Pine Needles. I love how these colours blend together. My addiction to glitter continues as I've sprayed the background with iridescent glimmer mist and added a row of glitter paste through a Simon Says Stamp dot stencil.

The pens are heat embossed in white and liquid platinum on vellum, then fussy cut. The perfect image for the giant ink splat background! This is an anniversary card for my hubby, who after all this time still gets me!
